This is a very clean and gorgeous cabin. Perfect for a couple wanting to get away. Lots of things to do in Hot Springs and the surrounding towns. Gorgeous kitchen fully furnished to do your own cooking or grill out. Spectacular view from the deck! I do encourage you to drive something that is a higher profile vehicle like a truck, jeep, suv but not a low profile car. It is a gravel road into the property with a bit of a steep climb. Great little hiking trail from the cabin and hot tub was perfect for enjoyment!

The cabin look & feel is very new and extremely clean. All of the amenities per listing were perfectly provided. The view of the French Broad River from the great room, deck and hot tub are fabulous. And it was still cool enough to have a romantic wood fire in the great room during the evening. Outdoor gas BBQ is also provided which we used multiple times during our 5 day stay. We plan to return to this same cabin in the early fall time to enjoy more of the local hiking trails. Highly recommended as a positive and enjoyable stay with lasting romantic memories.

Why they chose this property

River Magic Has the most captivating and amazing views! The location is so special overlooking the French Broad River. It is a mere 1/2 mile from the town of Hot Springs, in a tranquil, quiet setting. It gives a great place to relax and enjoy the river, woods and trails. Come back to the cabin and sit back in the hot tub looking out to the awe inspiring river and mountain views!

You can be to restaurants and shops in less than 5 minutes. The Hot Springs Spa is close by also where you soak in the amazing natural mineral water and have a massage. A great place to ride your bike, fish or boat.

Our desire is to create a quality cabin which reflects all the charm and style of the mountains combined with the comforts and amenities to make your vacation enjoyable and a special experience.

The combination of the majestic river and mountain views is captivating and mesmerizing. What a beautiful place to sit back, relax and take in the views!
