the listing is not a house it is a home - amazing place to stay - right on the river - soothing sounds from multiple decks - best stocked kitchen we have ever had, and we have traveled each season for the last 10 years. Pool table was a plus for us - all ameneties are there, muliple TVs games and the river. Harry is an awesome host.

Absolutely wonderful.

Beautiful place to stay. We relaxed by the river and caught a few trout and fried them for dinner. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Mr. Miller was very pleasant and greeted us when we arrived. We will definitely stay again.

Perfect Getaway

We have stayed here numerous times. My family loves the house and practically live in the river. Smores around the firepit and chasing fireflies is a perfect way to end the night.

We had a wonderful stay at Harry’s house. This was our third summer and we can’t wait to come back next year. Harry is a wonderful host and makes the house feel like a home. The kids had so much fun splashing and tubing in the river. This home is the perfect location and we were able to explore so much around western North Carolina.

This was our third stay at this lovely property. Love waking up to the sound of the river. The location is perfect. Close to grocery stores, eateries, etc. The home is clean and very well appointed. A home away from home.

Refreshing and welcoming mountain stay

The Bubbling River was a highlight to a lovely stay. The house was very clean, and well stocked with ample space for two couples. The owner was polite and quick to respond to our questions. We enjoyed cooking in, as well as the close proximity of excellent restaurants. Close to waterfalls and other attractions.

Fall Getaway!

This home is perfect. I love the location by the river and the back porch for morning coffee. We went to the great Smokey National Park for a hike and also saw beautiful fall colors. There is plenty of room in this home for everyone. I can't wait till June to come again!

The house was very clean. It was comfortable and like home. We enjoyed the creek. The driveway was a little intimidating, but the owner was very helpful with his suggestions. We would like to stay again.

Very relaxing!

This home was wonderful!. Fully stocked - from the kitchen to the laundry room and bathrooms- from cookware and dishes ,to cleaning products and soaps ,linens and towels. We loved the upper and lower back porches to view the relaxing river. The young people enjoyed the game room and tubing on the river. The beds slept good . We came away very refreshed and hated to leave. Would love to go back again!

Mountain paradise

We had such a wonderful time and loved this rental house. My family of 5 along with my mother stayed at this house and it was so roomy. We had other family in town and had them for dinner and there was plenty of seating and room for all. Coffee on the porch each morning with the slightly cool temps(60s), tubing in the river, afternoons playing games and evenings by the fire. This house has it all and the owner was so friendly and easy to work with. We had so much fun that we ended up extending our stay. The location is perfect and we can’t wait to return next year! It’s a hidden gem and I only wish we found it sooner.

Beyond Expectations!!!

Great property, we had a great time. My boys, 13 and 17 could not have had a better time in the game room. Listing includes pool table, but there is also an air hockey table, darts, chess boards, cards, some board games and even basket ball goal. They had a blast! My oldest enjoyed fishing in the river, he even caught a few. The view from both decks is amazing and the peaceful sound of the river was a great way to start or end the day. Don't hesitate to rent this great find. Mr. Miller was a great host.we would love to stay again.

Another wonderful family vacation

This was our third time staying at the house, and this year, staying in the summer rather than late autumn. The place is loved by our family and they already want to go back! This year was the first time we used the tubes to go down the river and it was so much fun. The house as always is immaculate, with every modern convenience you could want to entertain a growing hungry family. This stay was special to us as we had the pleasure of meeting Mr Miller, the owner. He is a wonderful gracious host who works so hard to make sure your stay is perfect. If you need a home-from-home to get away with your family or just your spouse, this is the place to stay! We love it, and can't wait to return, there are other places we looked at but comparing amenities, location, distance to stores, and the idyllic setting etc. there is no better place. You will not be disappointed.
