River Rock Cabin, Game Room, 12 mins. to Downtown

Welcome to your sanctuary on the Swannanoa River!

River Rock Cabin has been designed with attention to every detail to make your vacation experience a feast for the senses. A true mountain cabin, with luxury amenities and a magical river backdrop!

The Space
Take in amazing river views from the main level King bedroom and living room, and on the outdoor wrap-around deck complete with large propane grill and seating for lounging and dining.

In the lower level game room (access through stairway in King bedroom) you'll find a 65" TV, a large sectional, a pool table, a shuffleboard table and a dartboard. There's also a nice open area here perfect for yoga or exercise, just steps from the river. Open the two electric garage doors and enjoy the main fire pit or shoot a game of pool while the sounds of the river transform you.

Explore the cabin gardens...there are more than a dozen tree-trunk carvings of native birds and animals scattered throughout, as well as three fire pits and an open area perfect for frisbee.

You'll be on a private street, with ample parking in the large gravel driveway; keyless entry. I live here on the beautiful Swannanoa River as well. I'm delighted to say hi and chat if you see me walking my dog or throwing sticks in the yard. Otherwise, you'll have complete privacy but know that I'm just next door if you need anything at all.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board. Limited housekeeping is available.

What a lovely gem! The peaceful sounds of the river, hanging out by the fire pit, drinking coffee on the deck and of course, the artistically quirky interior - we couldn't have asked for a better place for a getaway. Lyn (and sweet pup Poco) were the consummate hosts - we cannot wait to make a return stay!

Best cabin ever!
Nestled in Asheville, this is the most charming cabin with a killer view of the river. The yard's decked out with these cool totems, adding a unique touch to the vibe. And man, that river's sound? Totally mesmerizing.You'll catch Lyn taking his adorable dog for a walk along the riverside, soaking in the peaceful scene.It's not just a cabin; it's like a chill oasis where you can escape the daily grind and just vibe with nature. Perfect spot for some downtime and soul recharge, you know? My wife and I had an amazing time at this cabin. The best cabins ever!

Amazing Respite
This is an amazing cabin tucked along the river and just a short drive to downtown Asheville. We greatly enjoyed relaxing by the water, the bamboo oasis, and the game room (pool, darts & shuffle board). Can’t wait to return.

A great location with a great owner
This was one of the cleanest and well-stocked VRBO locations we've stayed at. I expect others will recognize VRBO locations that feel a bit dingy or dirty when you arrive, or where the owners have skimped on basic amenities (I'm looking at you, "one roll of hotel toilet paper per bathroom" locations!). This couldn't have been further from the truth with this rental. The cabin was very clean and very well stocked with basic amenities needed for the stay, from dish and hand soap to logs for the indoor stove. The owner, Lyn, was also incredibly helpful. Due to some very strong winds that blew through the area during our stay, we lost internet for the better part of a day (thanks Spectrum). We also lost power around 11 pm one night (which Duke Energy thankfully restored within an hour). Lyn was giving constant updates throughout the outages, and recommended a really nice coffee shop (Filo Pastries) for internet access we needed while the outage was ongoing. We'd definitely stay here again.
