This cabin was absolutely perfect for us (couple plus 13 year old boy). We enjoyed kayaking and swimming in the little river behind the cabin (bring water shoes). We grilled steaks and had a nice birthday dinner on the back deck watching the water flow by. We hiked and swam in nearby waterfalls. Just a great place to enjoy.
We enjoyed every minute at this house. It is easy to get to but felt much more remote. Spent most of our time on the amazing screened porch listening to & watching the Callusaja river. A gaggle of geese floated by one morning. It was great to have the hose outside to rinse muddy shoes after a day of hiking nearby. Comfortable beds, kitchen well stocked. Nothing to complain about here!
Lovely cottage right on the river. Beautifully decorated, with everything that we needed. Perfect place to decompress and relax to the sound of the river.
The setting is beautiful, sounds of the river are relaxing. The little cabin is charming with everything hyoid might need. Location is convenient to everything. Highly recommend.
This precious cabin was a perfect getaway! Situated right on the Cullasaja river, it provided the ideal location for a visit to the mountains! Looking forward to returning!
One of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed. It is right on the river so we stayed on the deck most of the time we were at the cabin and listened to the river and watched and fed the geese and their babies as they swam by. Coffee in the mornings and reading on the deck was so relaxing while enjoying the river. The cabin was very clean and had everything you needed to make it feel like home. We highly recommend this cabin.
we usually come to n.c to ride the blueridge and roads off it. rivers edge nice quiet place and relaxing. been coming here for about past 4 years and we enjoy it
We were looking for a relaxing cabin on a river and THIS was the perfect place! 4 days of beauty right out the back door! While enjoying coffee each morning and a cold beverage at night, we were drawn to take in the view, the sound of the river and the peacefulness of nature.
We will definitely be back!
My kids had a blast playing on the river all day!! We only stayed for 3 nights, but I'll definitely come back for longer next time!! I did check out early on a Sunday, so I brought the trash to the recycling center Saturday before they closed, a slight inconvenience, but I would'nt ding them for that.
The house and property was very clean. Location was perfectly located in between Franklin and Highlands. Our boys loved the water front access. We had a wonderful time as a family and look forward to returning.
The house is cute and has everything needed for a relaxing and calming time. Being able to sit outside and listen to the water rushing by and taking a quick dip or raft, kayak trip was also a wonderful experience. My doggo also had a wonderful timne playing and he felt super relaxed in the space as well.
We enjoyed our stay! The house was clean and perfect for us and 2 kids. We enjoyed fishing in the creek and caught a few trout. We enjoyed playing games at night and built a bon fire. The location was perfect. We were able to visit some nearby waterfalls and drove south to Tallulah falls and Clayton Georgia for a day as well!
We had the best vacation ever! The cabin is simply precious and the river location is perfect for kayaking, tubing, fishing, and relaxing. We loved sitting on porch overlooking the river. Listening to the river at night was so peaceful. The manager and hosts were amazing and quick to make sure we had everything we needed for a special retreat. Our family can’t wait for a third trip to the cabin on cullasaja!
This charming cabin on the river was perfect for our 3-day stay in the Franklin area. Furnishings were comfortable and the cabin was cozy and warm during the cool evenings. The deck looked so inviting but the drizzly cold weather kept us from spending our evenings out there. Next time!
Spent Thanksgiving with husband and daughter at this lovely cabin. Thoroughly enjoyed everything about it. Went horseback riding, spent time at Gold City Gem Mine nearby, and was just down the road from Dry Falls. Franklin nearby for lots of restaurants and shopping. House had everything needed for cooking. It was so very clean and inviting.
A weekend getaway for my husband and I at Rivers edge cabin. We went to Highlands, Dry Falls, and Franklin. Rivers edge is very peaceful, it was nice to sit on the back porch, drink coffee and listen to the water. Husband fished our first night in the river behind the cabin, and caught a bass! Nice place for relaxing, peace and quiet.
