It is a very easy drive to Waynesville and Asheville. We loved being across the road from the river and even being able to hear the water with windows open while inside. Our dog enjoyed swimming in it and it’s easily accessible for fishing as well. The pictures don’t do the location justice and we are looking forward to staying again.

Jul 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfection! This property is probably the best VRBO we’ve ever had for just the two of us. (It would be a little small, but do-able, our family of four.) The condition and cleanliness of the property are unsurpassed in our experience, and it is beautifully and tastefully appointed. Molly and Rob tried to anticipate all that their guests will need…and then some! Molly and Rob are most gracious and were very accessible to us. We will definitely return.The property is located near the eastern end of the Great Smoky Mountain Expressway. It is about 50 minutes from Cherokee, NC and about an hour from Bryson City. It is very close to Waynesville. In addition to enjoying the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, we also enjoyed hiking the trails of Haywood Community College, which is very close. Also, be sure to visit Presnell’s Market, about five minutes from Molly’s place. Then bring some back and enjoy great food from the deck overlooking the Pigeon River, or walk across the road to the privately owned picnic table on the riverbank! You’ll be glad you did!Highly recommended!!! ![Private River frontage](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a612fa6b-c455-4269-97ce-d65a0dc5301b-1752492675022.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Cottage](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f2b503d4-c548-4ac9-8ab4-b0512b47317f-1752492652507.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![East of cottage](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/08f627c1-d4f7-439b-9fb9-b26b0076485d-1752492673618.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Cottage](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d21f79bd-234b-482e-8361-002c50892bed-1752492667567.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Angela C.

The Pigeon River that is in front of the cottage is amazing! You can hear the river from the cottage. The cottage is very clean and the furniture is comfortable. The owners are amazing and are very easy to work with and very easy to contact. This is an amazing family and are locals to the area! We brought our small dog to the cottage and the owners had special treats waiting for her! We are already planning another trip in October for this cottage. You will not be disappointed. ##### Dan B.

The decor was charming and the kitchen and living area were spacious. However, our favorite spot was the front deck, listening to and watching the river. We were amazed when we saw a bald eagle visiting the river a couple of times! The abundant windows let in lots of light. There is a road between the cottage and the river but the minimal amount of vehicles was not intrusive, in our opinion. The owner was very courteous, prompt with responses, and dedicated to assuring we were enjoying our stay, which we definitely did. And pet-friendly is always a plus! We would love to stay again. ##### Kim H. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christine d.

The unit itself was across a gorgeous creek and had all the necessities to make our trip relaxing. (That tub!!) The location was convenient to Asheville and Lake Junaluska for us, yet secluded enough to allow us to relax and enjoy the natural setting. ##### Christine d.

We really enjoyed shooting on the patio listening to the Pigeon River running right out front while we were drinking our coffee every morning. ##### Eric T.
