Riverside Mountain Getaway is a three-story, 1100 sq. foot, beautiful home overlooking the Rocky Broad River (unfinished basement). The home is located about 35 minutes southeast of Asheville, North Carolina and about 10 minutes north of Lake Lure and Chimney Rock, North Carolina off of Hwy 9.

Guests find much needed relaxation sitting on our porch or on the 'sunning rock'. Children and grown ups enjoy the Rocky Broad River's little rapids and wading area. Soak up the sun or read your favorite book and allow the stress of everyday life to fade away.

You will find all the comforts of home in our cozy, warm, living room with Spectrum high speed fiber optic internet, gas log fireplace, dining area and fully-equipped kitchen on the main floor. An intimate bedroom with queen size bed and full bathroom open off of the living room. Be sure to take a look at our pictures!

A second master suite hosting a king size bed and sofa is located upstairs with a smart TV.

The master suite opens into a foyer where there is another sleeping area. A twin bed and reading nook are in the upstairs foyer. A second, large bathroom with tub and shower open off of the foyer.

Call or email if you have questions. There are many fun things to do while staying at Riverside Mountain Getaway!

While staying at the mountain home, sun yourself on the big rock or 'rock hop' in the river via the staircase off of the driveway. Float down the rapids to the big bridge. Maybe you like to fish? Fish just off the driveway in the Rocky Broad River. Or maybe you need some quiet time, just you, your loved one, sitting on the porch or on the big rock soaking your feet in the refreshing river. Sit and listen!

Parking: There are two places to park at our home. We recommend using the Primary Parking Spot which is marked with a “guest parking sign.”

Primary Parking Spot: We recommend using the flat parking spot diagonal across the street. It is marked with a “guest parking sign.” It is located about 20 yards from our front door next to our neighbor’s road that goes up the mountain to their house. It is perfect for cars, low-clearance, rear-wheel and front-wheel drive vehicles.

Driveway: Be sure to look at the driveway prior to using it to determine if you have the ability to navigate it. It is steep and makes a sharp curve from the road. There is no room to turn around in the driveway so you will need to either back down it or back out of it. There is a blind turn at the top of the driveway requiring that you have momentum due to its steepness and curve. As you exit the driveway, we recommend having a second person stand at the top of the driveway to ensure the road is clear. A 4-wheel drive or all wheel drive vehicle can stop before the turn to ensure the exit is clear. Other vehicles will require momentum while turning to reach the roach. This can be challenging when back up and turning at the same time and is not recommended. Guests assume full responsibility if they choose to use the driveway. The driveway is not recommended unless you have a 4-wheel or all wheel drive. We suggest using the primary parking spot.

ALSO PLEASE NOTE: There are stairs to access the house. From the roadside there are stairs down to the roadside entrance. From the driveway there is a staircase from the basement into the main living area. Please refer to the pictures.

CELL PHONE RECEPTION is not good at the house. Enable Wi-Fi calling on your phone to make calls. There is also a land line and the phone number is 828-348-9413.

Email is the best way to contact the property manager.

Birthday Vacation
Lovely location with spectacular views and river fun. Very spacious and family oriented for all ages. Host went above expectations with accomodations such as full kitchen pots pans etc. laundry detergent, and basic needs. The driveway was steep but manageable. River was very relaxing and peaceful. The kids loved playing hide and seek. Very good instructions for driveway and securing locks. Overall it was an excellent experience and home. The only comments I have about cleaning would be to make sure all trash if out from under furniture beds etc. We had trash under all the beds not a lot though and the amount of dog hair was a bit excessive on the couches and porches for a non animal owner. Thank you for giving me a wonderful birthday!!!

The driveway was very difficult to get in and out of. I would not recommend if you have a small car bc the incline is steep and the driveway is rocks. You have to have someone get out and be a lookout ao the truck can have a running start. The internet went out for basically the entire weekend..the host was very communicative and it was beyond their control. An offer of some type of discount would have been appreciated. We could not make or take calls for over 24 hours.

Super Relaxing
Staying at a house on a flowing river couldn’t be more relaxing. The sounds and the view were perfect. Very clean house. Also, the hosts are very hospitable: stocked with coffee, toilet paper, paper towels, etc. Very tired of cheap hosts on AirBnb that don’t even leave you a paper towel roll. Lol. That is why I tried Vrbo this time and I overall I was very pleased! I will definitely be back!

Nature and peace
The home itself was perfect for a getaway ✨️ however the lockbox on the lower deck did not open we ended up having to climb up the rock steps which was difficult for me because I do have a bad knee. The driveway was tricky not well laminated it had rained and it was difficult getting our truck up the driveway to the road, so much so the truck fishtailed and we slide into a tree... this was the worst part of the trip so remember to have a truck and back down the driveway to make getting out easier.

Highly recommended!
This was our second time at this house and we had a wonderful stay again. The setting is spectacular, with a porch that overlooks the serene river. The view and the sound of the river make for an incredibly relaxing and private getaway. The house is well stocked with all the essentials and this time had high-speed W-Fi, which was a pleasant surprise. The location is perfect, offering quick access to various attractions in the area and the host is very nice and responsive. We can’t wait to return to this lovely mountain getaway by the river. Highly recommended!

Perfect Mountain Getaway
This was the perfect spot for a few days of relaxation. Wish we could have stayed longer. Once you're there, you don't want to leave. Take your groceries with you. Best time I've had in a long time. The driveway is a little tricky the first time - best to do it in the daylight, if at all possible. Beautiful!

Perfect place to stay for my family and our German Shepherd. Clean and well-stocked with the essentials. Strong wi-fi. Went fly fishing in the river and caught several brook trout. Great location to get to Chimney Rock (about 15min) and Lake Lure (about 20min).

What a wonderful place to stay with all the amenities of homr!
The water is amazing and the rock beach was the best part! We soaked in the sun and cold mountain river while enjoying the privacy and solitude of the beach. The beds were very comfortable and and everything was relaxing and enjoyable. The coffee selection offered really made the stay extra pleasant for me. Thank you and I love this place!!

The property is wonderfully secluded and just off-grid enough to allow you to disconnect and relax without all the distractions of everyday life. The view, access to the river, and a short drive to any amenities you might need. For a truly relaxing getaway...this is the spot.

Good location & Beautiful River
The location was really good and the Broad River running behind the house was beautiful & very peaceful. The house itself is a little run down but live-able for vacation. The property however is very over grown & snakey. Needs some TLC. Wifi very sketchy and driveway very difficult if you are not comfortable backing up. Need two people to get out each time. Would not advise arriving at night. This info is listed with property description so read carefully. Still made best of our vacation & enjoyed the river!
