Fish, swim, river tube, hike, seclusion on a gorgeous stretch of the Toe River, right outside the front door, literally! It is obvious the moment you walk in the door how much the owners love this special place. It boasts comfort and charm throughout.
The highlight of this special cabin is its location on the Toe River. You simply can't get any better than this. You could actually toss a stone from the front porch and hit water. Over hanging the river is a large deck. A unique feature along the river. Adult guests can relax or fish right off the deck while kids swim in the deep swim hole immediately below, or river tube. River tubes are available for rent at Patience Park (not far away). Drop in the river outside the cabin then ride the river to return! There's even a outdoor hot shower!
At the end of a day filled playing in the water, consider a hike around the property on the carved out property trails. Once night falls, sit around a roaring bonfire (also riverside) sharing the memories of the day while roasting marshmallows.
Riverdance is conveniently located between the quaint mountain down town areas of Burnsville and Spruce Pine. Both offer dining, shopping and convenience to many adventurous mountain activities you're coming to the mountains to enjoy. The entrance to the Blue Ridge Parkway is approximately 15 minutes from Riverdance and boasts THE most amazing long range views east of the Mississippi River. In fact, Burnsville is home to Mt. Mitchell, which has the highest elevation this side of the Rocky Mountains 6000 ft above sea level. Climb the lookout platform and you have 360 degrees views that stretch for miles. Hiking, commercial river rafting, horseback riding, zip lining, Crabtree Falls, Linville Falls and caverns, Grandfather Mountain, the Altapass Apple Orchard are all no more than 10 minutes to an hours drive. Asheville, home of the infamous Biltmore Estate is approximately an hour away. Contact me to send you web links to any of the above or other activities of interest perhaps not mentioned above.
We’ve done our best to make packing for a stay at Riverdance a breeze. Pack a suitcase with your personal belongings and a grocery list for a quick stop as you roll into Burnsville. You won’t need much else as Riverdance is kept stocked with dish cleaning supplies (including a brand new kitchen sponge for each new guest stay), laundry soap, and coffee filters for the auto drip coffee maker. Each new guest stay is provided a roll of paper towels and a couple of rolls of toilet paper to get their stay started. Guests must supply their own replenishments of paper products, but what is supplied should suffice for a stay of up to 5 to 7 nights (depending on number of guests staying).
