Cedar Cliff Cabin at Rivers Edge Rentals. Luxurious reclaimed 125 year old cabin

Come relax on the spacious front porch and enjoy the long range mountain views while listening to the soothing sounds of the river below. Step back in time while enjoying all the modern creature comforts. We took down this 125+ year old hand hewn cabin several years ago and have been anxious to be able to recreate what you see here in the Cedar Cliff Cabin! This perfect getaway sits on a 65 acre private estate located in the heart of the Great Smoky Mountains. The setting makes you feel like you are in the back country yet you are minutes from everything this area has to offer. We are only 1 mile from I 40 exit 24 and 25 miles to downtown Asheville and the Biltmore estate. You only need to make a mere 10 minute drive to enjoy all that downtown Waynesville has to offer from fine dining to some of the areas best local breweries.

This property takes shape after a lifetime of finding old barns and log cabins that were destined to be torn down or even left to rot away. Through the years we have carefully dismantled these structures and saved every usable item we could to try to create something special to us..... and hopefully special to our guests as well. From the antique hewn logs to the reclaimed locust porch posts, rails, and decking this is a uniquely different log cabin that you will have a hard time finding anything comparable. Step inside and feel the antique solid oak hand scraped barn wood flooring under your feet. Enjoy the warm feel of the solid poplar barn wood walls and ceilings mixed with just enough Spanish style stucco to brighten each space you enter. Enter the master bath to the spacious open shower with natural stone walls and stone mosaic flooring. Look above to see the exposed locust rafters and reclaimed beams in the vaulted ceiling.

You will more than likely spend most of your time here on the front porch relaxing to the long range mountain views. Watch closely for the huge cranes, hawks, and the occasional bald eagles that patrol the river. With the close proximity to the river you will most likely see some type of wildlife during your stay, there are coyotes, turkeys, groundhogs, deer, bear, squirrels, etc. This property is home to more than 50 head of cattle so no pets are allowed at any time during your stay here. Also no smoking in the house but it is fine to smoke outside on the porch. Please put discarded cigarettes in the containers provided as this property is in a wooded area with lots of dry leaves.

We hope that your visit to the mountains of western North Carolina and stay in our cabin create memories that will stay with you forever. Please respect the cabin and treat it as if it were your own as we respect you as a customer.

With four unique private cabins now on the property, Riverbend Cabin (listing number 7843149), Paradise at the Rivers Edge (listing number 1148597), CastAway Cabin (listing number 3156188), and now Cedar Cliff Cabin please check out our feedback ratings on the other properties and feel free to message about renting multiple cabins for your family getaway. All three are within walking distance yet very private.

Fantastic cabin with great view
We were really impressed with the care and detail that have gone into making this cabin really comfortable and beautiful. Jack and Christy are great hosts and were responsive, and genuinely seemed to want to meet us and help us with any questions we had. Having not stayed near this side of the park before, we wondered if we would find enough hiking, sightseeing and other activities, but we truly enjoyed it much more than we thought we would. It is much quieter than staying north of the park, and we would absolutely return again, to the area and the property.

We visit this area every Autumn for our anniversary. By far, this was the best place we ever booked. The Cedar Cliff Cabin combines rustic with luxury. The craftsmanship and attention to every detail was a delight. The front porch and view would be difficult to beat anywhere. This is a beautiful cabin and you can feel the love and work they put into creating a perfect getaway for their guests. We enjoyed our time here tremendously, and won’t stay anywhere else now. We were spoiled with this one, and nothing else will do. 💕💕💕💕

Beautiful home, beautiful area, great views and wonderful hosts!! From the front porch you can sit and watch the cows in the pasture, enjoy the surrounding mountain views, listen to the river below and even see a pair of Bald Eagles all while being very secluded yet close to everything!

I cannot express the beautiful of this cabin and property! We felt very secluded, but we’re not too far from town. A river runs the the property for those who like to fish. Heating and seeing the cows was an added bonus! I highly recommend this cabin!!

All we hoped for and more
I almost hate to review the Cedar Cliff Cabin, because I want it to be available next time we are out that way. This beautiful property exceeded our expectations in every way. Breathtaking location on the Pigeon River, superbly appointed and furnished cabin, with a historic feel--lots of reclaimed wood and other classic design elements but with all the modern comforts. The cabin sits on a large property that is shared with a couple of other beautiful rentals and the host's residence. Jack and Christy were welcoming, engaging, and very knowledgeable about the area. We could not have been happier with our experience at Cedar Cliff Cabin. As a bonus, I got light shows from fireflies every night--had not seen them in like 30 years. Thanks, Jack & Christy! Hope to see you again soon.

This cabin is on private property. We felt very safe and secure. The cabin is beautiful inside and out. The view is amazing. We just can't say enough good things about it. Jack & Christy are very friendly and just good people. There was a bunny who came to greet us every morning, and sometimes in the evening. Would stay again in a hearbeat.

Relaxing beautiful vacation
The cabin we stayed in was exactly as pictured, if not better! It was beautiful and relaxing. You felt like you were secluded (could barely see the other cabins), but had the security of knowing you were relatively close to others, including the renters. Check in and check out was extremely easy and the renters were always quick to answer any questions. We will stay here again if we vacation in NC again!!

Absolutely Perfect!
Our stay at Cedar Cliff Cabin was incredible. This is not your average cabin rental. The cabin was hand built by the property owner with his wife handling the interior decorating. Every detail has been addressed to make guests feel at home. The acreage surrounding this cabin is so beautiful - peaceful pasture views, distant mountains views and a rushing river . Quite possibly one of the best stays we have had in some 20 years of staying in the Western NC area.
