Beautiful spot on the river.
Great spot, bad farmhouse. Pretty clean, with nice updated bathrooms but otherwise kind of shabby. Access through hot, ugly utility room into cramped kitchen with worn linoleum floor sets the tone. Very little closet space, no central air- just 3 tiny window shakers with extension cords hanging taut in the walkway around the bed. I bought them an appliance extension cord to avoid kicking the old one out of the room's single outlet every time I got in or out of bed. Nice big deck overlooking the beautiful shaded lawn but no shade on the deck, which abuts the unwashed, paint-peeling house. Super convenient location off Hwy 19 but still on a broad, (relatively) deep part of the river.
A 3/5 review is not a negative review, but there are definitely some challenges.

Absolutely perfect place to stay for a family vacation. The house had everything we needed for our stay. Location was convenient.but still a little off the beaten path.

Beautiful setting; okay house
Great location with stream on property and near to Burnsville. The house was well supplied and very clean - but it had a fairly strong and unpleasant musty odor. The queen bed in the main bedroom sagged badly in the middle. The queen bed off the kitchen was more comfortable but no adjoining bathroom.
I didn’t catch any trout on the property but I did catch some trout on the Cane River nearby.
The drive up to Mt Mitchell State Park was stunningly beautiful. Lots of good hiking possibilities nearby. Burnsville has some nice shops and restaurants. All in all we enjoyed our stay but a couple of improvements with the house would make it even better.

Family trip
I stayed here before a few years back with my husband and two dogs. This time I decided to take my parents (in their 70s) and mother in law (86). The house is set up so they didn’t have any difficulty getting around. They even went to the water. My dad spent everyday fishing. They really enjoyed staying here. The house is an older farm house but well kept. The bathrooms have been updated. Very nice yard and the river in the back was perfect.

Great family get away!
We had a great stay at this cabin. You could feel the love that generations before have poured into the walls. The pics make the cabin look more updated than it is, but it is extremely cozy, clean enough and was great for our family with 3 younger children. It is a hike to get down (and back up lol) from the river (and be sure to bring river shoes as it is very rocky and hard on the feet) but absolutely a perfect spot for the littles to safely enjoy swimming or wading in the water. This is the first cabin that we've taken our kids to that had everything we needed for a safe, peaceful, relaxing, waterfront vacation that we plan to return to!! That's big!
I did want to give a little feedback on communications. The management team did great and checked in on us shortly after we arrived.... Answered our questions and guided us where we were lacking however - there was a big party tent with tables and chairs in the yard when we arrived on Sunday. On Tuesday a couple of guys came and took the tent down, collected the tables etc. We wish we would've had a heads up that this was going to happen. It's not a big deal and won't stop us from returning but with our kids in tow we are very protective and weary of strangers just showing up! Also, right after we arrived a maintenence worker pulled up and had to go inside to grab payment for himself....this was not communicated to us either and surprised us. Again, not a deal breaker but wish we would've had a heads up.
We can't wait to return. We were all a bit salty that we had to come home! Lol

Very Peaceful
The property is beautiful and very relaxing. There was a lot of people that were passing through there going to a HANG OUT SPOT so expect to see other people walking or driving up the hill going to the river. We really enjoyed the property and especially the noise of the water sitting on the deck.
