Relaxing Getsway

My husband and I enjoyed a quick two night getaway in this beautiful cabin. The view was absolutely stunning. We enjoyed wine at night and coffee in the morning on the balcony looking at the French Broad River. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The town was cute and our favorite was the local brewery with live music. We also did a couple hikes to enjoy nature within a couple miles of cabin. I highly recommend staying at this VRBO. Our only regret is we didn’t stay longer.

A wonderful retreat! Mind the reviews of the Lover's Leap trail - it is certainly NOT "moderate", it is every bit of a difficult hike.

The Perfect Getaway

River Magic is a beautiful pristine cabin that is well stocked and immaculately clean and well landscaped. It had everything we wanted or needed for a long weekend getaway. Spectacular view in a quaint little town full of friendly people. Communication with property manager was stellar. My only slight critique would be that the hot tub is very small (but very clean and well maintained) and the jets are poor. More of a soaker tub with nice hot water at 105 degrees. The hot water only got to a warm and never what I would call hot in the shower. With that being said, we would definitely still rent here again and I have still given it 5 stars.

Hot Springs getaway

The property was perfect for the 2 of us. Simple check in/checkout. Picturesque setting of the mountains and French Broad River. The wood burning fireplace was a special treat. Be sure to bring your own food as you won't want to leave the cabin. Communication with owner was wonderful.

Fantastic Stay

A wonderful time away for a few days. Clean, Quiet, Relaxing. Please be aware however that the road to the cabin is quite steep. We managed fine with a truck but there may be some difficulty for a car with steep incline and loose gravel.

Disconnecting

Best place to disconnect from the daily life. Beside a bridge in the distance, our view was only nature with no man made structures to be seen. A peaceful place to reconnect with nature. The house was awesome too. Just what we needed.

Perfect Get-Away

This is the perfect place to relax, unwind, and unplug. Beautiful cabin with an incredible view and a charming little town. We lost power out first night there due to a storm but the owners and property manager were very responsive and monitored the situation. We will definitely be back!

LOVE this place. It’s a must stay!

My boyfriend and I wanted to get away for the fourth, and found this cabin pretty last minute. This was definitely by far the cleanest place I’ve stayed at, the views are absolutely amazing. Everything about it was great! The drive coming in once you get on the gravel road looks like you’re going the wrong way, but you’re not! It’s a pretty steep hill to get up, but we had no problem in my truck and didn’t have to use 4x4. The hot tub was very clean as well, overall we had an amazing stay. Would recommend to anyone wanting to get away for a few days! We will for sure be back next year, thank you letting us stay at your beautiful home!

Best view of the river

This is the most beautiful place to stay in the mountains. Inside is immaculate, cozy, clean and needs nothing. But you!!! The river is in full view from the living but the full size balcony is unbelievable. Jacuzzi was exact the thing for our Saturday evening anniversary. Will be back.

Anniversary getaway

We were celebrating our 55th anniversary and this was a great place to be. Excellent furnishings, we'll equipped kitchen, spectacular view of the French Broad River from the porch, relaxing hot tub with privacy and a view of the river and wooded area. The mountain rhododendron were in full view. We drove in through the Paint Creek Corridor which added to the beauty and peace.
