Host was amazing and the house is incredible! Right on the river with trout! Pool table and dart board was a huge plus. Overall a great experience already planning when we can go again!
This house is new, beautiful and it is perfect for hosting friends and family for fun indoors and outdoors on the river. We loved the privacy, ease of parking and closeness to all the fun places in Mills River and Asheville! The bathrooms were so fun to choose from the rainfall shower and the big tub! The kitchen is nice for entertaining and family meals. Great open space!
Very nice and comfortable place. Had everything you could think of! Kitchen overly stocked. It was great. The river was better than expected. Definitely recommend. I didn’t have children there but can see how amazing it would be for a young family. Host very responsive.
