The River House on the Tuckasegee River near Bryson City, NC
Fine Times on the Tuck is a fully remolded home and located right on the Tuckasegee River with fabulous views. The is a rare gem giving you a perfect mountain and river retreat yet just minutes to all the shopping, dining, and fun Downtown Bryson City or Cherokee has to offer! Our home has beautiful upscale furnishings, wireless internet, well equipped kitchen with a large eat in bar, massive outdoor deck, gas grill, covered fishing dock, and fire pit area make it a perfect home base for a mountain adventure or just relaxing!
The main open layout living room offers a gorgeous rock gas fireplace (for those chilly mountain evenings), a large flat screen TV for your enjoyment! The kitchen offers huge butcherblock countertop with eat in bar, wine cooler, dish washer, and coffee station. Off of the kitchen is a pantry with a stackable washer and dryer. The half bath is spacious to include a beautiful antique wine cellular door. The master bedroom is located on the main floor with a queen bed. The master bedroom has a own suite full bath with large walk in tile shower that is handicap accessible and double vanity.
The second level has a separate living area with 2 huge picture windows that give you views of the river. The upstairs living area is the perfect kids friendly zone with a flat screen TV and board games. There are 3 additional bedrooms located upstairs along with a full bathroom. Two bedrooms upstairs have queen beds with spacious closets to unpack and unwind. The third bedroom upstairs has a bunk bed with a queen bunk on the bottom and twin bunk on top. The full bathroom upstairs has a shower/tub combo with a double vanity. There is also sitting area upstairs that offers space to work if needed!
For outdoor entertainment we provide a gas grill with a beautiful outdoor deck space complete with seating. There is a covered dock on the river for fishing. We provide an additional table and seating on the deck to enjoy outside dining in the mountain air!
Additionally, We are 10 minutes to Bryson City and the Great Smokey Mountains Railroad (GSMR) for fun adventures such as the Polar Express and Wine Tasting Rides! We are just 15-20 minutes to the Deep Creek Recreation Area which has gentle rapids for tubing and hiking adventures for all ages. During the polar express the GSMR travels to downtown Whittier to visit Santa’s Village and the train travels parallel to this home. Children love to wave at the attendees on the train! We are approximately 10-15 to Cherokee where you can experience wonderful shops and access to the Blue Ridge Parkway.
