Great time with family and dogs! River access and tubes and kayaks were great no need to leave the property for adventures plenty to do.

Overall the place was great. We loved the porch and sitting back and listening to the creek all day. Its not too far from Burnsville where theres a great brewery and a grocery store.
I wish that the listing had been more clear about the home not having air conditioning. Once we got there and realized it didn't, I went back and realized it wasn't listed as an "amenity" but this is NC in the summer - where I assume all places have AC. I feel that the listing should be more clear that the home does not have AC.
Overall it was clean, but it does need more of a focused clean. There were a lot of spiderwebs in the ceiling and there was trash and cigarette butts left around the fire pit. I realize this is probably from the last renter but seeing it didn't leave a great first impression.
The check-in instructions in VRBO said there was a key under a statue on the porch, but the emailed instructions were different (theres a new electronic lock). But we couldn't figure out how to lock the electronic lock when we left. Also, the book provided by the owner said the key to the tubes/kayaks was in a basket on the kitchen counter, which was not accurate. He responded quickly to my message letting me know where it was, but it was frustrating that the information provided wasn't accurate.
Also, be aware that the internet is very slow. Two cell phones using it at once made it almost unusable. I know this may not be the owner's fault as it is a rural area, but something to know.

We stayed here 5 years ago and it was awesome. The location and the cabin are beautiful. We love the huge fireplace! However, some things were not as good this trip. There was no knob on the bedroom heater and the living room heater knob spins all the way around so you have no idea of the setting. All the windows could use a good cleaning to enjoy the wonderful view of the river. Curtains were dusty and we wiped out the fridge and stove top when we arrived. Water pressure in shower is very low and bathroom sink takes a while to drain.
This is a beautiful place to stay, I just think it is not being kept up like it used to be.

From the moment I got out of the car and heard the river, I knew we had picked the right cabin. The cabin itself is very nice, clean and well stocked with anything you need. Beds very comfortable and the heaters kept us warm. But it’s the outside that really makes the trip. Sitting out on the swing listening to the water was so relaxing. We also found a hammock in the storage space so we put that up and had a nice afternoon nap. Weather was to cool to use any of the tubes or kayaks, but there are plenty to use.We are hoping to come back soon!!
