Wake up to breathtaking mornings at RivahGetaway, where the Cape Fear River comes alive with misty tendrils of smoke rising gently off the water as the first rays of sunlight filter through the trees.

About the host
Hosted by Dale Bollinger and Rocio Bollinger
Hi my name is Dale Bollinger. I am a life long resident of Bladen County. I spend my life with my wonderful wife Rocio and our daughter Amanda Belle. I love nature and the river which led me to acquiring this property several years ago. Our cabin was fully renovated by us over the last few years. We are still adding new features yearly to our property.
Why they chose this property
I love fishing and this cabin by the Cape Fear allowed me to spend time doing the things I enjoy most.
What makes this property unique
The ever changing views of the foliage that surrounds the cabin and the Cape Fear River and the serenity of the area. Watching the multitude of wild life. Fishing a few feet away.
