A Whitewater Retreat - Fightingtown Creek
ONLY 25 FEET FROM THE BACK PORCH TO THE BANKS OF FIGHTING TOWN CREEK!
Perfect for fishing, relaxing, and family fun!
You will find easy living on popular Fightingtown Creek. Enjoy the water inside or out! A Whitewater Retreat is just the place to break out your waders and go fishing, stretch out on the sofa with your favorite book, or enjoy the screened porch while you listen to the rushing water.
You will look forward to starting your day on the master bedroom deck; it is the perfect spot to sip an early morning cup of coffee while you listen as birds chirp their morning songs. After a day shopping in Blue Ridge or a hike on the Appalachian Trail you can soak away your sore muscles in the covered hot tub overlooking Fightingtown Creek. Inside you can hear the creek as it tumbles over the rocks and see it from every room in the living area.
This home is tastefully decorated with plush, yet inviting, and warm furnishings.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Relaxing weekend getaway
We really enjoyed our time here. We loved spending our time on the porch listening to the rapids and enjoyed soaking in the hot tub as well. We ended up not leaving the house and cooked all of our meals in the well equipped kitchen. The primary bedroom was spacious, had access to two decks and the bed was very comfortable. We would definitely book again!

We will return!
We had 4 adults and 1 child with us, and we had a great time. It is not a new cabin, but they’ve done a great job maintaining this gem. It is a single story cabin, but the bedrooms are separated enough to have a sense of privacy. It was a great trip, and I would love to rebook this cabin!

Literally a few steps away from the creek! Great place for 3-5 people
The best part is listening to the creek! Nice cabin!

Rustic cabin retreat
Our family of 4, 2 adults and 2 teenagers, enjoyed our stay. Cabin was as described and looked like the pictures, just a little more worn in person. Beds were comfortable. Loved sitting on the back deck listening to the river. The river was up from a week of rain, so fishing was a little tough. Overall, enjoyed our stay.

Lovely cabin but a bit further from Blue Ridge that was expected.
Overall a beautiful setting close to a white water stream. A steep driveway was a challenge when departing the property. Winter/ icy conditions might pose a problem. An all-wheel drive vehicle would negotiate driveway with no problem.
