Located in Swannanoa, this charming cabin for $390 per night is a great choice for your next break. River Rock Cabin Come see why VRBO ranked River Rock Cabin one of the top 10 cabins in the US in our second year open and why we have over 400 five star reviews, 12 minutes to downtown Asheville and less than 5 minutes to the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Folk Art Center. The most visited site on the 469 mile parkway. It’s an easy Uber ride to enjoy the breweries, galleries, amazing restaurants and all Asheville has to offer. Located on a quiet dead end street in a quaint, one way in - one way out, neighborhood, the cabin creates the illusion of being in your own private world. Beautiful bamboo forests flank each side of the property and create privacy. Planted in the early 80’s, the former owner chose clumping bamboo. Not an invasive spreader and it's looked the same for the 18 years I’ve been here. I’ve harvested dead stalks to build the privacy screens on the deck and at the edge of the property, otherwise, I leave it alone. It remains green year round. Come enjoy this Zen Appalachian paradise. Peace and beauty await. Rest, relax and let your dreams soar while you explore a peaceful day on the river. Perfect for tubing, kayaking, and fishing and especially hanging out and relaxing.. The Swannanoa is the most heavily stocked trout river in NC. Controlled by a reservoir, the river typically is bucolic and beautiful, but can get rip roaring at times. It’s power can be impressive. The cabin has a maximum capacity of 4 people and features a queen sized bed in both the private first floor bedroom, and the upstairs open loft bedroom with private bath. It’s perfect for 2 couples or a romantic get-away for 2. Sorry, no pets and no children under 6 and NO SMOKING! Access for the game room is through the first floor bedroom or from outside. Lower level renovation in 2021 now greet guests with all of the features from, with a GIANT addition. The lower level garage, in the past used for storage and off limits to guests, has been re-imagined. If you liked the cabin before, you will LOVE it now! The cabin is now open to the river like never before with new see through wire railings on the upper deck. AND the amazing new 600 SF game room. Expansive up close views of the river create a back drop for the new game room where you’ll find a 65” smart TV, 9’ shuffleboard, a dartboard and a vintage 1948 Victor Billiards pool table. Plus a dedicated 10 x 10 foot open area for yoga, Pilates, and stretching or meditating. All of the wood in the game room was harvested from trees I cut down, on a lot about 25 minutes away, to clear a view for the little cabin I renovated there and had the timber milled and kiln dried. I used some of it for the game room. The door latches and pulls are from rhododendron in the yard here. Early check in is sometimes possible. Let me know what you'd like and I'll do my best to accommodate. I live next door and am close by if you need me. I’m delighted to say hi and chat if you see me out walking my dogs or throwing sticks in the yard, but I respect your holiday and won’t invade your privacy . I provide firewood for fire pit outside, 3 dura-logs for inside wood stove, K cups for Keurig coffee maker, filters for drip coffee maker. The cabin has a fully stocked kitchen including many common spices. Shampoo and body wash in showers. Hair Dryer. All linens. Steamer for wrinkles as well as an iron and ironing board. Outdoor gas grill with extra propane tank. Smart TV’s upstairs and in game room. High speed internet. Come. Relax. Enjoy. Welcome to your sanctuary on the Swannanoa River. The cabin is full of art and collectables I have gathered over a life time. Every one of them has a story. Please ask if you are curious.
