The cabin is almost new and so is the furniture.We now have three bedrooms with queen beds and a forth with one twin. There are also two twins in the loft.
The River-bend Development has two lakes, 'Little Mirror' and 'Big Mirror.' Both offer fantastic bass fishing. The Rocky Broad River rushes through the middle of Riverbend. Hiking trails and grilling areas are along the banks. Wildlife can easily be seen during the absence of leaves. Canoeing is also fun. The views from the lake are spectacular. Also, for the athletic type, hiking and trails are all around.

About Marshall Seay
I am Marshall Seay pictured here with my wife, Lori Jill at a South Carolina Gamecocks football game. We are in the construction business. We have built many log homes over western NC and the upstate SC. We thought that it would be nice to build a vacation getaway, not too far from Greenville, SC. We offer it to others as a vacation rental when we are not using it...It has been a great experience and we enjoy our times at the cabin. If you get up there and fall in love with the place, as many have, we can help you find just the right place and build you one. This has happened several times so visit at your own risk ! You may not want to leave...
Marshall Seay purchased this cabin in 2008

Met all our expectations.
Property met all our expectations.
Fabulous!
We came to this log home at the last minute due to Hurricane Irma. Marshall Seay was so kind and helpful. We had a bunch of family and friends with us and Marshall brought extra towels. We used the charcoal grill and cooked every meal while we stayed. I would absolutely stay here again.
Nice house with beautiful private lake access!
The house was very nice and had plenty of room. There weren't many lamps or night tables, which was odd. There was only one lamp and one night table in the master bedroom, none in the others. There was only one small lamp in the living room which made for odd evening visiting. We couldn't get the fan light to come on.
Otherwise, the house was well stocked, very pleasant, private, and very clean. We even saw two deer from the back porch on the first morning. There is no hot tub, just the jetted tub in the master bath. There weren't really mountain views, but the house is surrounded by beautiful woods.
I would recommend working with the owner to get check in information very early on to ensure you can get in the gate before the gate keeper leaves. There was really only a two hour window to check in since the gate keeper leaves at 6 and check in is at 4. This made for a very stressful day of arrival since we only found this out the morning we were to arrive and had a long drive. The owner did make arrangements for us with the help of the cleaning lady which we appreciated, but it took all day to arrange it. There is also only one gate key, so if people come and go separately, someone always has to drive back to the gate to let the other car in.
Almost every bed had a mattress pad which a previous guest had mentioned were lacking. There are no curtains upstairs. Luckily our friends brought some since we all had young children.
For the price, I would definitely recommend this house.
We especially loved the private lake with a beach that was included in our stay. The water was clear so we got to see the fish! Our young children loved swimming with the fish. We thought it might be more like a tiny pond, but were very excited once we saw how beautiful and peaceful it was!!
We really enjoyed our stay!
Disappointing
Functional but much that should be improved. No guest information in house. As result we had trouble getting AC on when we arrived. Kitchen supplies and utensils barely adequate and we had to hint for enough glasses and tableware. No info available about how to access hiking, swimming, fishing, etc. Had find through chance encounter with another guest. No map or guide to these amenities was in the house. Beds did not have mattress pads. Gate entry system was a big hassle over the week we were there. No instructions about parking were provided. As we had 5 cars (3 rentals for people who flew) we parked alongside the road, completely on the shoulder. This led to a very unpleasant incident for my wife who was rudely scolded by a local resident who apparently felt empowered to advise about "rules" we knew nothing of. Again, a sheet of information about such things should have been provided. This is common practice in other properties we have stayed in. Cleaning appeared to have been done half-heartedly.l. Floors had not been thoroughly cleaned and definitely not under couches and chair in living room area.
All in all, we were not impressed and would not recommend this property to others.
Had a great time !
We enjoyed this cabin. Liked the neighborhood . The swimming hole was a great place to swim. The house was perfect for our needs.
Beautiful home and beautiful setting!!
This will likely be a bit different as reviews go but it may give peace of mind to travelers who have medically fragile or elderly family members. My father became seriously ill and we had to call 911... literally before my husband arrived at the gate to let them, as instructed by the 911 operator, they were in front of the house... fire truck, paramedics, ambulance, and chief. About 10 extraordinarily kind and highly competent first responders streamed through the front door and stabilized and tended to him getting him ready to be transported. He spent 12 hrs in the ER at Rutherfordton and then transferred to Hickory to their cardiac ICU ... and eventually transferred back to Greenville NC to his doctors. We received lovely, highly competent care and though it wasn't the vacation we planned it was a huge comfort to be so well taken care of in an unfamiliar place! Once my folks were transferred to Greenville (and other family were there to take care of them) we were able to have a wonderful day at chimney Rock and exploring the swimming hole and water fall in the neighborhood.
My one and only complaint is that the gate situation is a little tricky when you have adult kids that want to come and go independently and someone has to be the gate runner to let them in and out. It would be lovely if there was a second pass or a number code available to help that situation. We definitely will return another year! Thanks so much for sharing your home!
Map
Note that Mountain areas can be tricky with regard to cell phone service can be tricky. We are in an area where the signal is strong. There are miles of walking trails along the River in Riverbend. There is a "Zip Line" about 5 minutes from the cabin. The famous Biltmore House is 45 minutes away. Spartanburg , Asheville , Hendersonville , Greenville , are all close by....
