Beautiful log cabin in the woods on a creek

Great location and cabin

This cabin was in a great location. Super close to the grocery store and to Lake Lure. The river on property was so refreshing and a lot of fun. The steps getting up and down were difficult but worth it. Would not be good for older people. The cabin kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. We would recommend this cabin.

Retreat on the Broad River

We enjoyed our time at this property. While the river was high due to recent rains, the steps down to the river provided wonderful access and views to the river. This was also and excellent location that gave us quick/easy access to horseback riding, zip lining, Lake Lure, etc. Also, thank you to the property owner for our last minute add of one adult due to unforeseen circumstances!

Family getaway

This was a beautiful fall weekend to be away and the house worked out really well. We ended up with 6 of us staying there instead of 8 ( plus a child) so probably better as it would have been pretty tight with 2 more adults and a period we enjoyed sitting on the deck and playing cards and cooking meals together.period. Aside from some very minor maintenance issues this place was perfect and the host was very responsive and helpful

Annual family vacation

Jeff was extremely responsive. The view was breathtaking, the property was spacious, and the Broad River was magical and serene. We were about 20 minutes from Chimney Rock and an hour from Asheville. The kitchen was completely functional- ate all our meals there and hardly wanted to leave the property- so much to do! Highly recommend it!!

Perfect cabin on a creek

We absolutely love this cabin and the location. We have stayed here 2 years in a row. It’s perfectly located between Ashville and Pisgah national forest. The creek is fun for playing in, or you can float down back to the cabin from the church at the entrance or farther up if you shuttle. There are tubes available under the house. Fully stocked kitchen for cooking and entertainment. Really looking forward to returning to this mountain paradise. Also the homeowner of fantastic, I had a package get delivered but the post office delivered to a private box and the homeowner came out and delivered it to the house.

Workout

Great stay, lots of little things to make the stay more comfortable, tubes, games and fire pit were great. Spices and soaps were helpful. Wished the doors(bathrooms, bedrooms, exterior) were lockable. Internet was barely there no streaming, need a better selection of DVDs or at least an antenna if that’s the only option. 200 steps between deck and river was daunting, but doable with breaks.

All doors are lockable (you have to pull up on the handle to latch exterior doors before locking, this is documented in the welcome guide), Wi-Fi streams Netflix and Prine videos reliably.

Log Home

The property is not what we expected. It needs a good heavy duty cleaning. The water is 180 steps down and 180 back up. Once we got there it was not good for swimming or playing. The rocks were very slippery and the current too fast. The washer and dryer were very old and took hours to do one load of laundry and they were extremely noisy The price was too high for what it offered.

Stairway to Heaven is Fabulous!

My son recently graduated from college and is now working in Rutherfordton so we decided to visit him. We usually rent beach homes and have never stayed in a community like Riverbend but so glad we did! Stairwsy to Heaven is the perfect name for this paradise. The views from the balcony are breathtaking! The home is absolutely incredible. Love the design and layout of the home. It was easy to find and Jeff was so patient with me and all of my questions prior to booking! We had everything we needed and appreciate Jeff sharing his home with us! I read quite a bit about the stairs leading down to the river. I had hip replacement last Oct and took my time going down the stairs. So Glad U Did! You can hear the water from the balconies but to see it through the trees as you walking down the stairs is like Christmas morning! Alexander Family

Our stay at this cabin was magical.

Our stay at this cabin was magical. We’ve been visiting the NC/TN area for over 25 years and this may well be our favorite of all of the cabins we’ve ever stayed in. To have both a gorgeous mountain view and access to a sublime river oasis is a rare gem indeed. The cabin itself was clean and cozy. There was plenty of space for our family of 6. With 3 separate levels, there was lots of room for everyone to have their own space. The beds were comfy as were the sofas. The kitchen had everything we needed. And we spent hours enjoying the deck with its majestic view, rocking chairs, and inviting hammock. Naps were taken in that hammock! We brought our dog and she had a ball (literally) playing in the fenced backyard as well as by the river. We enjoyed the fire pit multiple nights and made memories making s’mores, laughing, and enjoying the peace and tranquility under the stars. Tubes were provided and we had a great time tubing down the river. The only time we left the cabin was for hiking and grocery shopping. But, in all honesty, we could have stayed at the cabin the whole time. Now that we are back home, we are all missing it so much. Thank you, Jeff, for a wonderful stay. Our family absolutely loved it and we can’t wait to return.

Fantastic Mountain Cabin

We had 2 families in for a long weekend and it was fantastic. Both families have a small dog, so this cabin was perfect for us. Getting to the property is easy, the views are beautiful, the house is updated, comfortable and well stocked. The ride into town (Lake Lure) is 5 minutes where there is a grocery store and restaurants. Chimney Rock is 10 minutes away. Our little kids wanted to go snow tubing which was only 35 minutes away, with a vineyard next door (so that was nice for the adults afterwards.) Everything about the house and property was great. The walk down to the river is awesome but be ready for quite the walk up the steps when you come back up. Wildlife is everywhere. We saw deer and turkeys on site and black bears in Chimney Rock State Park. My only issue would be that the internet strength is a little weak. With the tv being based on streaming services, and then everyone logs into the Wi-Fi, everything slows to a crawl. So even though you aren't at this house to watch tv, it still happens and that got a little annoying. Maybe the service provider was having issues or maybe that is all you can get there in the mountains, but that didn't take anything away from the stay and we would gladly come again.
