Set on almost a half-acre, this stilted river cottage is the perfect getaway! Just a few feet from the Tuckasegee River but also close to town, this retreat is perfect for groups looking to get a real sense of the mountain atmosphere. Walk just a half-mile into Dillsboro to shop, dine, or canoe the river. Trails also fill the area for hiking and exploring the surrounding mountains.

The thoughtful orientation of this modest-sized cabin keeps the river-song in your ears and heart. Guests can use the hot tub on the front deck, the outdoor firepit (bring your own firewood), and the covered picnic shelter. Inside, you'll find a compact, but full kitchen as well as a main bedroom with a large TV with surround sound speakers.

This home also includes central heating and air-conditioning.
