Tranquility

Property is very well kept up and maintained. The use of the sauna at a VRBO was great and a unique experience. Dale was helpful and friendly. Didn’t get to enjoy the fire pit cause it rained—bummed. My fav part was the wrap around porch. Lots of seating available. Couldn’t find a cutting board. Used a dinner plate instead. It was a peaceful and quiet wknd. Would definitely recommend this place!!

Relaxing and Peaceful

Great place to stay.Rocked on porch and listened to the sounds of nature. Peaceful and secluded. Beds very comfortable. Everything was provided. Unfortunately the river is polluted so no fish in river. Elderly the stairs are a challenge going up and down them. I would come back again.

Slice of backcountry heaven

From the moment we came to a hard stop wondering what path to take, we were smitten. I've read previous reviews complaining about the final leg to the cabin, and yes it is a dirt/sand road, but what does one expect when staying right next to the river in the Carolinas? We absolutely loved the secluded, dead end road and that was just the start of it. We rented both the main cabin and bunk house. Both were very clean; thank you for that! I was starting to give up hope of finding well kept places after our last few stays at other locations. Communication was prompt and helpful and the Bollingers were very accommodating to our requests. We were sad to leave but hope to stay again. All I can say about the few bad reviews is, read the very clear directions and there are rules for a reason; those reasons are why this location is so very will taken care of!

RENTER BEWARE - Linens & Towels NOT Included

The property is nice, clean and in a good location. It would be quite difficult to access without a truck or 4WD vehicle if there was rain or poor weather. But the units are nice and comfortable. We discovered the hard way the listed way day in the lengthy details of the property is a coy little phrase about towels and linens available upon request with no indication of cost. Thai cost is an extra $100!! The most expensive towels I have ever purchased. Buyer beware!
