Riverfront home with firepit, large deck, tubing rafts, & views

River Retreat

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Transport yourself to a wooded North Carolina wonderland and be serenaded by the river’s tranquil song while visiting this idyllic Franklin home!

Peacefully nestled on a four-acre lot with nearly 500 feet of direct riverfront, enjoy easy access to swimming, rafting with the provided tubes, the river’s two-acre private island, and plenty of the best fishing holes the Cullasaja River has to offer. Try your luck with the rainbow trout, or head out to explore the area’s scenic waterfalls such as Dry Falls, Bridal Veil, & Sequoyah, a short drive away. You’ll also find Bartram Trail, Nantahala National Forest, Jackson Hole Gem Mining, Whiteside Mountain Trail, Lake Nantahala, and Smoky Mountain National Park all within about 30 miles of home.

When you’re not hiking, fishing, rafting, or basking in the scenic overlook views, come back to relax in the beautifully designed living area adorned with comfortable furnishings and stylish decor with rustic accents. Stream family movie night on the large smart TV or get cozy with a good book by the wood-burning fireplace. The inviting, full kitchen hosts modern appliances, gorgeous cabinetry, and ample storage space for effortless mealtimes. Even better, grill up the day’s fresh catch on the spacious deck while others leisurely float back on the river, conveniently arriving right at the front door! As the evening draws to a close, come together around the firepit to create lasting memories, share laughter, indulge in s’mores, and revel in the soothing river sounds just beyond your reach.

No heat

We loved the cabin, but when we arrived it was cold and we couldn’t get the heat to work, used contact number and waited 11/2 hours no one showed up to fix the heater, communication was bad and every time I called back I got a different person in a different location so it took from 6:30 pm to 11:30 pm to get relocated to a cabin 30 min away and driving up to the cabin in the dark woods was rough. We were so tired we stayed in the cabin one night but had to be relocated to another cabin the next day because we are both 75 and the stairs was too steep for us. The next cabin was ok, it was on the water but it was not new or as big or as nice as the first one that we had to leave because the heat didn’t work. But the rest of our stay was ok and enjoyable

Great cabin and amazing fishing

My buddy and I booked River Retreat for a fishing weekend. The cabin itself was extremely impressive. Very clean and inviting. The property is huge and amazing access to the river. Would highly recommend. We will be back for sure.
