Ideally located in Asheville just outside of Arden and Mills River, River Retreat Cabin is a mere 2-minute drive from Beer City Tubing and a 7-minute drive from the Asheville Regional Airport. It’s also less than 15 minutes from the famous Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. and Asheville Outlet Mall and 20 minutes from the iconic Biltmore Estate, the artists’ enclave of the River Arts District, and bustling downtown Asheville. In the late Summer and Fall, you’ll also have quick access to “Apple Alley” (aka the many orchards situated along US Highway 64 in Hendersonville) just 25 minutes away. Whether you’re visiting on a family vacation, a getaway with close friends, or a couples’ retreat, River Retreat Cabin is the perfect place for savvy travelers to land and explore all of the exciting things Western North Carolina has to offer!

Enjoy your morning coffee on the wrap-around covered porch while listening to the relaxing river rapids and calls of nature surrounding you before making your way to the local stables at Saddle-Up Trail Rides to go on a scenic riding tour through the Pisgah National Forest, or take a 15 min. drive into Hendersonville to play an exciting round of paintball at Wolverine Paintball Park. If you’re interested in chasing epic waterfalls, travel just 35 minutes to the DuPont State Forest. The most well-known trail is High Falls Loop, a 2.2-mile trek that was once the filming location for the first Hunger Games movie & is an absolute must for outdoor and film enthusiasts alike. Beautiful during any season, the spring & summer months provide the perfect weather for rock hopping along the river bank, while the fall & winter months provide natural marvels like color-changing foliage and spectacular ice formations. 

In the afternoon, cheers to your adventures at a local brewery over some ice-cold brews. At Mills River Brewing Co., listen to live music while soaking up the sun on their outdoor patio & sipping their refreshing Riverside Hefe. Less than 25 minutes away, you’ll find Sideways Farm & Brewery, where you can enjoy a unique artisan farm ale that is bottled & naturally conditioned with local wildflower honey. Blue Ghost Brewing, located less than 5 minutes from the airport, is named after the Blue Ghost Firefly—a native species unique to the southern Appalachian Mountains. End your tour with two of the most well-known breweries in the area—Bold Rock Mills River Cidery & the iconic Sierra Nevada Brewing Company & Taproom. 

In the evening, grab dinner at Tamarind Thai Cuisine which serves up fresh & traditional Thai plates, Rocky’s Hot Chicken Shack which serves up deliriously good fried chicken & soul food, or grill up your favorites using the gas grill back at the home. In the evening, gather around the cozy gas fireplace or outside under the stars to discuss all the exciting adventures you went on today and plan all the ones you’ll go on tomorrow!

Please note: This home is pet-friendly with an additional fee per pet (max of 2). There are 3 exterior security cameras at this property. While you can enjoy river views at the cabin, the river access is a short drive away in a lovely shaded park. This home is a short drive from the Asheville Regional Airport, making it extremely convenient for the traveler here on business or pleasure! Due to its proximity to the airport, it is very common to hear airplanes overhead arriving and departing for adventures in and beyond our beautiful mountains.

Beautiful location

House has amazing views. We were there in mid February and even though nothing was in bloom it was beautiful. The outside needs updates like the furniture and deck. This dog friendly house was perfect for our needs.

Great location! Convenient to most activities and nearby stores and restaurants. Property was beautiful with the river right outside the cabin. The only thing I would change is the lighting in the kitchen and bathrooms. Definitely could use more lights. We would definitely stay here again.
