Craftsman Style River House sitting on the French Broad River!

NEW HOT TUB INSTALLED MARCH 2025!!!! Please come stay! We are open for guests and River Rd has been repaired. If you want something different you have found it! Constructed from reclaimed materials by the owner featuring two bedrooms and two full baths w/deluxe showers. We are located 6 miles (3 of the six miles are gravel) from the Appalachian Trail town of Hot Springs, NC and a 45 minute drive from Asheville NC.

Perfect for a relaxing get away and equally great for the outdoor enthusiast!
Sit on the porch and watch the River flow by! Build a campfire and roast some marshmallows, maybe even pitch a tent. Put on your hiking shoes and enjoy some of the many nearby trails.
The French Broad River works great for Kayaks, Canoes, Tubes and Rafts. Put in up river and get out right at your cabin!
We are told by local fishermen that we have one of the best fishing spots on the River! Also, just down the road is a Premier Trout Fishing Creek located in the "Paint Creek Corridor."
Close to Mtn. Bike Trails a world class Trout Fishing Stream, hiking or back packing.
This is a bird watchers paradise! You may catch a glimpse of the resident bald eagle that frequently circles overhead or hear the geese honking as they fly up and down the river in formation.

Pull out your bicycle and ride a 24 mile loop from Paint Creek to Hot Springs or a shorter 12 mile loop through Paint Creek Corridor and back.
One of the greatest features to enjoy is the large, beautiful wrap around porch (NOW WITH HOT TUB!) and the private upper veranda
On the main level you enter from covered car port into open concept, full kitchen/living dining area with table and room to sit at the bar.
Leather Sectional, wood beams and fireplace with stone profile and wood stove insert add to the cozy feel of the cabin.
The bedroom on main level has walk in closet and King Size Bed. Main level bathroom is large w/Washer & Dryer, large tile shower and exit to wrap around covered porch that is 750 sq feet and has multiple doors for entry/exit convenience.

Upstairs, the Master Suite w/King Size bed and en suite bathroom has french doors leading to a private covered veranda overlooking the river. Hear the sounds of the rushing river and bask in the afternoon sun in private.

We hope you can come enjoy the peace and tranquility of this beautiful spot surrounded by the Pisgah and Cherokee National Forest and the French Broad River! Note: Ring Camera installed on door where you enter on carport for added security.

Absolutely perfect
Our stay was amazing. The cabin was very clean and the location was great. It is very close to town but feels like you are secluded. We caught fish right in front of the cabin and there are waterfalls and recreation areas close by as well. Would definitely recommend!!

Wife and I both thoroughly enjoyed it! Cabin is a little ways outside of hot springs but is absolutely gorgeous sitting on the river. Great place to get away and relax. Grab a cup of coffee, sit on the porch, and listen to the river!

We enjoyed our stay. Had a little issue upon arrival but the issue was handled immediately. A little too cold to enjoy the outside, but I imagine the spring, summer and fall would be awesome.

Great cabin directly on the river.
Wonderful experience, large bathrooms, lots of porch space for relaxing, plenty of pots/pans/cooking stuff. We didn't need a property so large it turned out, but it was very nice.

Fantastic Getaway with a scenic view.
Short trip with family. It was very cold with flurries, so the fireplace was very welcoming. Plan on visiting again during the summer to take advantage of the extra amenities this Home offers!

Seeing New Place
Our family enjoys booking little getaway’s with VRBO and Hot Springs did not disappoint. The cabin gave us great privacy, lots of fishing, some walking and just opportunity to put our feet up. The little town of Hot Springs was wonderful! Welcome Center provided great history of the area, we were able to get breakfast both mornings and shopping for local artisan treasures to take home!

Peaceful and unique property
Really lovely and special mountain cabin with all the essentials. We loved sitting outside and having s'mores in the evening, and my husband was impressed with the fishing access just steps away from the deck. Lots of outdoor fun in the surrounding area and options for picnic grounds/swimming holes. We came in mid-May and the weather was perfect.
