French Broad R&R!!!
French Broad Retreat was definitely true to its name! Fantastic and peaceful location…not far from amenities but quiet, country location. Perfect for fishing and relaxing! House was immaculate and super clean. Owners thought of everything to make the stay comfortable and cozy. The coffee bar was amazing! Wonderful memories made on this trip and hope to return with our family!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear that French Broad Retreat lived up to its name and gave you the peaceful, relaxing getaway you were hoping for.
It means a lot to know you enjoyed the quiet country setting, the fishing, the cleanliness of the home, and of course, the coffee bar! We truly want our guests to feel comfortable, cozy, and cared for from the moment they arrive.
We are so glad wonderful memories were made during your stay, and we would be honored to welcome you and your family back again in the future!
What a wonderful experience! The house is incredible. Everything is brand new and absolutely lovely. The property is gorgeous , located directly on the French broad river. It’s even better in real life compared to the pictures! Also, the owners thought of every possible detail to make your stay more inviting. A fully stocked coffee bar was just the beginning! Games, corn-hole, Jacuzzi, fire pit, outdoor gathering area, plenty of blankets for everyone, Fussball table upstairs, table top shuffle board, board games, etc.Communication was outstanding with easy check-in instructions! Rich made sure that we were happy and kept in touch with us. We’ve stayed at several VRBO‘s but this one was honestly top-notch. We can’t wait to come back! Oh, I forgot to mention the location. We flew up from Florida- and it was an easy drive from Knoxville airport! Our daughter attends the University of Tennessee - 30 minute drive to Neyland! Also, very easy to drive into Sevierville and Pigeon Forge!

What a lovely review to read! We're so glad the house and its details stood out, from the coffee bar to the game room, jacuzzi, fire pit, and outdoor spaces, and that being right on the French Broad River made it feel even better in person. It's wonderful to hear check-in was smooth and communication felt easy throughout your stay. Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful, detailed review!
