the listing is not a house it is a home - amazing place to stay - right on the river - soothing sounds from multiple decks - best stocked kitchen we have ever had, and we have traveled each season for the last 10 years. Pool table was a plus for us - all ameneties are there, muliple TVs games and the river. Harry is an awesome host.

We had a wonderful stay at Harry’s house. This was our third summer and we can’t wait to come back next year. Harry is a wonderful host and makes the house feel like a home. The kids had so much fun splashing and tubing in the river. This home is the perfect location and we were able to explore so much around western North Carolina.

Refreshing and welcoming mountain stay

The Bubbling River was a highlight to a lovely stay. The house was very clean, and well stocked with ample space for two couples. The owner was polite and quick to respond to our questions. We enjoyed cooking in, as well as the close proximity of excellent restaurants. Close to waterfalls and other attractions.

My family and I had the pleasure of staying in this lovely house right on the river. It was an awesome experience for all of us. The house was just perfect! Not just the grandkids but the entire family enjoyed tubing and fishing on the river, and playing pool, darts, and other games that were there for our enjoyment inside. Most of all the owner of the house, Harry, was an awesome host and such a genuinely nice man. There was absolutely nothing negative about staying in this home if you ever have the opportunity to stay here don’t pass it up!!!

About the host

Hosted by Harry Miller

Host profile image
Built this self designed home in 2002, it evolved from a childhood dream, and with many blessings ,good health and hard work it came to be, God is good

Why they chose this property

The house was built with the plan of 6 month a year summer retreat, but a couple grandchildren have put that on hold for some years to come, Love them grandchildren The wife and I enjoy the area and what it has to offer, especially the tranquil life style.

What makes this property unique

We like the home, we really like the decks, but we love the river and the soothing sounds of rushing water and sights of wildlife on the river. can,t get much better than that
