About the host
Hosted by Roger Fingar
I am Roger, an almost retired painting and decorating contractor, based out of Tampa for over 40 years. Architectural creativity has always been an avocation for me. I've dabbled in timber framing, treehouse building, live edge construction, stonework and my own brand of custom wood finishing. My lovely wife, Lynda, is a retired art teacher, who continually explores new methods of artistic expression in both familiar and unfamiliar media. For both of us our greatest joy is creative expression in our complementary arenas of interest. Occasionally we've been known to collaborate a project, however scarcely a day goes by when we don't consult each other about some aspect of a project, either helping with a creative pathway or with some problem solving issue. It helps that we respect each other's opinion more than anyone else's.
Why they chose this property
We selected this property for many reasons. We bought it sight unseen (from marketing photos) and were not disappointed. It's location was a big attraction for us. It's only a mile away form the John C. Campbell Folkschool which has a deep connection for us both. It's proximity to other property we own, made in convenient as a "beachhead" for future building projects, both ground attached and in the trees. The modest size of the cabin is a perfect reminder that our North Carolina life should be a somewhat simplified one - at least not a duplication of the complex lifestyle we have in our Florida life. It's by no means a "Tiny House". We call it a "Not so tiny house" - small but livable, with every square foot having a purpose.
It was built by a retired doctor from Colorado and his wife, who taught at the Folkschool for several decades.

What makes this property unique
The location, the view, the Folkschool proximity and the feel of the cabin itself, have been a magical experience for us and our guests, in the short year since we purchased the Rivercane. It's a privilege to share this wonderful place with others so it can become their experience, too.From the "nestled in the woods" environment (in the middle of seven wooded acres) to the artistic vibe of the neighborhood, being there has truly been a gift to us!
