Whether you're planning a nature-filled escape with friends, a family getaway, or a peaceful retreat for two, this cabin is designed to make everyone feel at home. With space for up to six guests, it's ideal for larger families, couples traveling together, or even small professional groups visiting nearby Elon University, just 10 minutes away. From quiet mornings by the river to evenings gathered around the fire, this is the kind of place where connections deepen and time slows down.

Ground Floor
Step into a warm and welcoming space where rustic charm meets modern comfort. The open-concept layout features a living room with wood accents that echo the natural beauty just outside the windows. The kitchen is fully equipped for home-cooked meals and includes a charming island—just the right size for morning coffee or evening snacks. The dining area brings everyone together, while the laundry room with washer and dryer makes extended stays a breeze. On this floor, you’ll also find a peaceful king bedroom with a writing desk and a comfy corner chair, plus a bathroom that invites you to unwind with a jetted tub and a built-in closet for added convenience.

Upper Floor & Loft
The upstairs primary bedroom feels like a peaceful retreat in the treetops, bathed in natural light and furnished with a plush king-size bed, a spacious seating area, and a generous closet. The open loft shares the same airy feel, featuring a queen bed and a queen trundle—perfect for kids, cousins, or anyone who enjoys a sleepover vibe. A spacious desk and chair by the window provide the perfect setting for getting some work done! A full bathroom with a walk-in shower completes the space, offering comfort and ease for everyone upstairs.

Basement Retreat
Head downstairs for a space that brings everyone together. The basement is made for laid-back fun, featuring a ping pong table, a collection of games, and plenty of cozy seating for cheering each other on—or simply kicking back in front of the 65" smart TV. And for those who like to balance play with a bit of movement, there’s even a home gym area—perfect for squeezing in a workout before your next riverside adventure.

Outdoor Living
Surrounded by nature, the outdoor spaces are just as inviting as the indoors. Sip your morning coffee in one of the two egg chair swings on the front deck or share stories on the back deck, where you’ll find a comfortable sitting area and two grills—a gas grill and a Kamado Joe charcoal grill—for all your BBQ favorites. A screened-in porch offers a shady spot to unwind, rain or shine. Just a few hundred feet from the cabin, you'll find private river access, four kayaks, a picnic table, and a fire pit—everything you need for slow mornings, adventurous afternoons, and starry evenings by the water.

Ready to trade noise for stillness, and screens for starlight? Your cabin escape is waiting—kayaks by the river, and memories just waiting to be made. All that’s missing is you!

Guests have full access to the entire cabin, along with private river access just steps away. Kayaks are provided, so you can head straight from your door to the water whenever the mood strikes.
