Pet-Friendly Riverfront Retreat w/ Hot Tub, Pool Table + Biltmore Pass
River Bank Retreat invites you to visit the Canton countryside with a Pigeon River welcome! The peace and quiet at River Bank Retreat is perfect for relaxing and discovering nature. Sit and watch the river go by from a rocking chair on the home's newly covered deck. If you're bringing your favorite furry friend, the surrounding fields are great for long walks. For a perfect evening, make your favorite meal in the fully equipped kitchen, with a little help from the gas grill, and then head downstairs for a game of pool (or ping pong - the table's convertible) or watch a movie on the big-screen TV. You'll get a good night's sleep in one of four bedrooms and wake refreshed and ready to explore the natural beauty of Western North Carolina. For families looking for fun in the sun, the Canton Recreation Park is just two miles away with a large public pool. Bicyclists take note: this home is a 10-minute drive from Chestnut Mountain Park, well-known for mountain biking trails, and the easily-accessible Highway 215/Old River Road is popular with cyclists for its uncommonly level route along the river. River Bank Retreat offers a treasured opportunity to get away from it all without sacrificing the comforts of home! This Asheville vacation rental is located in Canton and is approximately 28 minutes from downtown Asheville.
River Bank Retreat is a Dog-Friendly Property - we love our furry friends! If you'll be bringing your dog(s) with you, use the "Personal Message" box when making your reservation to tell us how many and their weight.
