This cabin was cozy, immaculate and well furnished. The views of mountain vistas from the back deck were wonderful. Ron, property manager, was very helpful and promptly responded to questions. The cabin is located close to a number of excellent restaurants and outdoor activities. Highly recommended!
5.0
Firstly, Ron and Kathy are great host and have a wonderful house in Horse Shoe, NC.The location is very close to Asheville, Brevard, Hendersonville and the DuPont Forest. A short 20-30 minute drive and you are there. We like the mountains in Western NC and find them to be very accessible from their house. We really enjoyed the quiet location, views and well-equipped house. A new propane grill was on the deck with an extra tank sitting next to it. Many great details like this were taken care of. We will return again to escape the madness of the city that we live in. Hope this helps!

This house had everything we needed and things we didn't know we needed--even a sleep machine! My top need was a porch with plenty of seating to look out over the mountains in the morning with my coffee and in the evening with my wine. Very clean and comfortable. Highly recommend this home. Our hosts were amazing.

This house was so incredibly nice, clean, and spacious. And the back porch was my favorite place to sit and read. I rented this place for a short weekend work trip, but I cannot wait to come back for a longer stay.
Thank you!

The pictures don’t do your home justice! It was beautiful and very well stocked. We were only there for a short day but are wanting to return in May to visit the biltmore chihully exhibit.
5.0
I've been renting cabins in the Western NC mountains a few times a year for 25 years and this is the cleanest cabin I have ever seen. It is also well stocked and up to date in every way. Just of Hwy 64, but secluded with a view of a valley over the river. Close to both Hendersonville and Brevard. There is an Ingles grocery just a couple miles away. The hosts were quick to communicate and very gracious. This was a solo business trip, but I promised my wife I'd bring her here on vacation soon.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at River Rock Cottage! The owners of the property have thought of everything you can imagine to make your stay as perfect as possible. I've never stayed in a rental that was this clean! Reserving was made quick and easy with great communication with the owners. We particularly loved the two porches. The back porch with the comfy seating, swing, and fire table was great for romantic evenings. Highly recommend this property.
