Cozy winter haven
This was our second stay at the River House but the first time we've been to Dillsboro in winter. We had a wonderful time! There was a big storm, and we watched as the swollen Tuckasegee carried branches and logs past our cabin. Then we had a little snow! The cabin was clean and comfortable.

Great river front location
Beautiful spot on Tuckaseegee river. Since we kayak, we could launch right out of the front yard. Large deck on the house to enjoy the view, nice gazebo right by river. House is in great shape. Only 1 bathroom and 2 bedrooms, but if your party can fit, lovely spot. Easy walking distance to Dillsboro - Haywood BBQ spot is ideal BBQ joint, Boots is an tasty upscale steak house.
