Beautiful little creek that runs along the home is perfect for playing. The fenced in backyard was a major plus for our dogs to play also. There are games inside that my kids enjoyed. Would definitely recommend to anyone. It was the perfect little getaway that was close to town.

Beautiful creek side home. Inside of home was very clean & put together. Downstairs has full kitchen & accommodations. Just FYI for anyone with complications with stairs, there are some steep stairs to go between the upstairs & downstairs in & out of home & to creek.. Not a huge problem but may be harder for elderly or small children. Not a whole lot of shore front on the creek but it was perfect for setting a chair up in the water to relax.Great communication with owner & check in was easy. We had a relaxing time & you can find a lot to do within a 15 mile radius.

This was our second time staying and we had a great time. The furniture is very comfortable and clean. We brought our own tubes and pump to go down the river. There are plenty of towels - including towels for if you get in the river. The grill was newer and great. The basics were in the kitchen and we cooked all meals. There could be better lighting in the kitchen and other rooms, but that is minor.Ingles is about 15 minutes away. Looking forward to returning.

We had a wonderful weekend at Falling Water! The place truly feels like a home away from home — cozy, comfortable, and beautifully set by the creek. We loved listening to the sound of the water and taking in the peaceful view. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. A perfect spot to relax and recharge — we’d love to come back!

Grandson's second year birthday

Lovely home, and very accessible for my 90 year old mother. You can hear the flowing river wherever you sit in the house. They were kind to let us check in early on our arrival.

Clean and comfy

The house was immaculately clean and beds and sofas were comfortable. Location by the river was fabulous. Kids enjoyed fishing and tubing. The kitchen had everything we needed. One thing to note, to get to the upstairs master you have to either walk through the room with 2 twin beds or the shared bathroom. We are already planning our next trip.
