About this property
CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE - HURRICANE HELENE
Welcome to C & G's Rocky Broad River Cabin - the longest 'family owned' rental property in Bat Cave. One step onto our back porch and you'll be "hooked"!!! Remodeled in 2010, the porch boasts over 300 sq. ft. of screened-in space which is a great extension of the living area of the cabin. Here, you can rest, relax, read, or even take a nap while listening to the river in complete "bug-free" comfort. Better yet, start your morning with breakfast on the porch; lunch and dinner work equally as well. There is seating for 6 at the table but with all this space, more can be included.
Originally purchased by my grandfather in 1947, we have owned the house since 1987 and now it will be passed down to our grandchildren, Carson and Gabby Kincaid. Since starting this ad, Carson is now 12 years old and Gabby is 7. Both enjoy playing in the river and exploring!!
We have completely remodeled the upstairs (downstairs not yet available) and have updated all utilities and living spaces. Practically everything is new - granite counter tops, cabinets, bathroom, wiring, and plumbing.
Come stay with us and experience a new level in Mountain Luxury!!

About the host
Hosted by Randy and Brenda Kincaid
Carson was born in 2012 and is our 'Pride and Joy'. He is so much fun to be around. As our only grandson and the heir to this property, and considering that my grandfather, Charles Carr Harrelson, was the first in our family to own this house, I thought it only fitting to call the house 'Carson's Cabin'.
My name is Randy Kincaid. I practically grew up in this house and spent every summer there until 1968 when my grandparents sold their mountain property. My wife, Brenda, and I purchased the house in 1987 and have been continual part-time residents of Bat Cave since then. I am a retired elementary school principal but still do contract work for our local school system. Brenda retired as the Director of Cooperative Education and Student Employment from the community college in our town.
Since retiring, we have spent most of our time remodeling Carson's Cabin with the thoughts that most of our free time will be spent there since getting up early to go to work is no longer a concern. Many of the upgrades we've made have been to make life easier for us while also appealing to the 'guests' we may have stay in our house.
Carson is now 9 years old and developing into a fine "little man". One of his hobbies is fishing in the river or, when the fish aren't biting, jumping around the rock or simply playing in the river.

Why they chose this property
A friend who got me interested in real estate investing once said, 'Never buy a property with your heart!'
Well, if you read the section above, you know that's exactly what I 'DIDN'T' do. I was upset when my grandparents sold the property so when the opportunity presented itself for me to buy the house, there was no doubt that I had to have it. Obviously with the name (Carson's Cabin), I have no plans of selling and hopefully, one day, this house will be his!!

What makes this property unique
Spend the weekend here and you know the benefits - so peaceful, so restful - OMG, an almost perfect place!
If you're fortunate enough to be here on Sunday mornings, be sure to take your cup of coffee to the back porch and listen to the church music from Bat Cave Baptist Church right across the river and up on the mountain. An unforgettable experience!!
Spend time down by the riverside. We have a large fire pit and chairs on the lawn for your use and enjoyment. The sound of the river is almost 'hypnotic'; you will definitely feel the calming effect!!
