Rocky River Retreat II -Pet Friendly, Riverfront!

RIVER FRONTAGE ON THE ROCKY BROAD RIVER ~ ROMANTIC ~ INTERNET ~ PET FRIENDLY

Welcome to Rocky River Retreat II - A small, cozy home away from home!

Location! What better way to spend your vacation than to stay at a home just a few short miles away from Lake Lure and Chimney Rock. This home sits right outside of Bat Cave and is only 3 miles from Chimney Rock and 6 miles from Lake Lure. Want to plan a day trip to a nearby popular city? Asheville is 23 miles away, Downtown Hendersonville is 15 miles away, and the Tryon International Equestrian Center (TIEC) is 23 miles away. Plan the perfect itinerary for your trip, knowing these great cities are just miles away!

This newly renovated home has the perfect amount of homey feel to make your vacation feel like a home away from home. When you enter the cottage, you enter the kitchen with the dining table to the left—a fully functional kitchen with utensils to cook breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Straight ahead of the kitchen, you will find a coffee bar with a standard auto-drip coffee maker and coffee mugs to start your day off right. Turn to the left, and you will enter the living room. Here, you will find a cozy L-shaped sofa perfect for getting comfortable and watching a movie on the TV. In addition to the coziness of the living room couch, look to the left, and you will be able to enjoy the view of the beautiful outdoors. Walk through the sliding door onto the deck and enjoy a meal or a cup of coffee on the deck overlooking the Rocky Broad River. Listen to the sounds of the river, birds chirping, and the leaves moving in the wind. The view and sounds are sure to make you feel like you’re in paradise. Walk back into the home from the deck, and the bathroom will be on your left. A beautiful, updated bathroom with the perfect touches and a walk-in glass shower. Back through the living room, straight ahead, you will walk into the bedroom with a queen-sized bed. The functional bedroom features a closet as well as a washer and dryer. This romantic home has the perfect touches to make your vacation relaxing. We look forward to your stay at "Rocky River Retreat II" and are sure it will become one of your favorite waterfront properties when visiting WNC.

If you need more space, check on the cottage right next door, the original Rocky River Retreat. Just check the calendars for availability or pick up the phone and give us a call; we are happy to assist you.

AREA WIDE NOTICE: Lake Lure will undergo a drawdown from January 1st, 2025, through the first quarter of 2025 (March 31st). The lake will begin to be lowered by approximately 1 foot per day until 12 feet have been reached. Infrastructure maintenance, dredging, and dam projects will be expedited during this time frame. These efforts by the Town of Lake Lure may affect access to the lake and restrict any lake usage. For more information, click here. The lake will likely be back up to normal levels by mid to late April. While we understand this is an inconvenience, this does allow you to enjoy the full beauty of Lake Lure in the fall and holiday season. This will not affect the smaller lakes in the area, only Lake Lure itself.

Smoking is prohibited in all of our vacation rental homes.
Parking 1-2 vehicles.
Check-in time is 4:00 p.m. local time or anytime after.
Check-out time is 10:00 a.m. local time or anytime earlier.

Parking
Very nice place. Very clean and nicely decorated. We had everything we needed. Place had an awesome view and access to the river. I must say that access to the house was very tight and parking was not easy. Only one vehicle could park for this place and it was in between the two Rocky River Retreat homes. No yard to walk around in either. The area of this place was really cool, and it was easy to get to Chimney Rock and Lake Lure, Hendersonville, and Asheville.

Home Away From Home!
We absolutely loved our stay RRR II and highly recommend to anyone looking for a getaway from the hustle and bustle. Hosts were very thorough and responsive with check-in/check-out processes. The home was well put together and stocked for vacation needs. The kids and our frenchie loved exploring the river. It was nice to relax out back with a fire listening to the sounds of the river. Hope to visit again in the future. Thank you!

Piece of heaven
To have the headwaters of the Broad River as your front yard is an indescribable experience. Interior of the home was absolutely perfect. Location to Chimney Rock and Lake Lure was very convenient. A perfect getaway.

Easy Breezy River Relaxation
The house itself was compact but very functional, with everything we needed, without too much froo-froo stuff to worry about breaking. Very nice. Then comes the crown jewel....opening the sliders to the beautiful sound of the water rushing by the rocks. And a great deck to overlook it all. Easy access to the river and wonderful firepit to add to the evening beauty. Indoors and outdoors, it made for a very pleasant stay. Super easy check in and check out let us get down to the real business of relaxing.

Relaxing!!
Such a great little house on the river!! Loved having dinner on the deck and just listening to the river flow! It was such a relaxing background sound while sitting in the living room winding down from the day! The deck was just a great hangout place next to the river! The online guestbook with all the information did say there was a gas grill but there was only a charcoal grill which we made work and was fine but it would’ve been nice to be prepared for that. The grocery store wasn’t too far which was nice just a windy road there! Chimney Rock is a close drive and we hiked there on a short trail (about an hour round trip) to see a great waterfall! The bed was a little hard for me and my husband but others may enjoy it. Overall great trip and loved the place! Would definitely come back!
