An amazing place to stay. Clean, comfortable and perfect. If you are looking for a place to stay for fishing as we were this, is it. Do not look any further. Walk out the door and start fishing the Tuck right away or call a guide. Best trip in a while.

What a perfect home for a family gathering! We had 9 family members in for graduation this weekend and Tuckaway Retreat was no less than fabulous! Ready on time, sparkling clean, well-appointed, and the view...oh the view! We hope to make yearly use of this special place, it is now dear to our hearts and part of a memory we will always treasure!

We had a very relaxing vacation. The home is situated in front of a large river that you can float down and fish from. The house was stocked well and was surface clean.

House was very nice and the views were amazing. The only things I would improve on: The fireplace did not work The gas grill did not work There were only 2 kitchen trash bags and with 12 people they filled up fast. I would recommend leaving a few more. Need instructions on operating TV's. Other than those things me and my family were very happy with the place.

Five stars for a great house exactly as described. Excellent furnishings and well kept. It might be helpful to others to note that this is not a secluded mountain spot--it's near town, among some other houses. Across the river is a busy road, which creates quite a bit of traffic noise on the porch and in the yard. Didn't detract from our stay, especially since we were happy to be close to town and not on an isolated mountain, but worth mentioning for others looking at this property. We would go back.

The house was beautiful and very spacious with everything we needed for a weeklong family reunion. We had ages 2 to 77 from North Carolina to Texas everyone enjoyed the space. The bedrooms were spaced nicely, and you could go to bed early or stay up late without bothering those that were sleeping. Having two kitchens (especially an extra fridge) helped keep everything cold. We really enjoyed the river front location. The porch furniture was great for gathering for evening games and my husband played his guitar for everyone. We floated in tubes from the Jackson County Greenway down to the house. The kids tied the tubes to a rope and hung out in the water at the house. Some got a guide and went trout fishing; we did the white-water rafting trip from Dillsboro River Company, we saw many waterfalls, Elk & some shopping in Cherokee and lots of brewery visits.

Tuck away Retreat was a beautiful home that was clean and very accommodating. We had 10 staying in the house, 4 kids 7-10 years old and a granny that was 95, and everyone was very comfortable. We fished and tubed the river, had multiple fires in the fire pit, made s’mores, white water rafted the Nantahala, went horseback riding,visited Cherokee, and had a nice time for a day in Dillsboro. We would definitely do it again

The home is beautiful and clean. Plenty of space to spread out and my son loved the river. Caught tons of trout but since it was delayed harvest we couldn’t keep any but still had a blast catching and releasing. It had two kitchens and a grill so dinner was not hard to do with our group. I would stay again

Roomy for our family yet designed for gathering together for meals, games, outside settings, and inside settings as well. Also convenient to area recreation opportunities for fishing, kayaking, and swimming. Likely to make it an annual family trip.

The whole place was perfect! From the 1 year old to the 52 year old, we all loved it here. The porch, the view, the tall ceilings and beautiful tall wood doors, the wood swing, and everything you needed to stay, they had for you. And the walls were great…..can’t hear anything going on upstairs or downstairs! Definitely will be back!
