"River Love Tiny Adventure is an adorable experience! I’ve been staying in the western NC mountains for 11 years now and this was the most unique place I have visited. Easy to access, yet tucked away and peaceful. Our host, Kangee, has put lots of little details into designing this space and caring for her guests. The river is stunning, firepit perfect. She even left a fire starter for us. Beyond the adorable little space itself, Kangee is by far the kindest most helpful and accommodating host...
