Burnsville Vacation Rental cabin

We recently returned from our third visit to Riverwalk and have already booked our 4th visit in the fall. We just can't get enough of the beautiful views and peacefull surroundings. I love waking up in the morning and sitting on the porch with my coffee and book, enjoying the sound of the river and the views of the pasturelands with grazing horses. Sitting in the hot tub provides the same view during the day and a zillion stars at night. I loved the availability of XM radio on the TV and the wireless internet kept me connected with my business when needed. My husband spends most of his time standing by/in the river fishing. My kids enjoy the hiking, making s'mores by the campfire, playing badmitton, and especially the zip line. Thanks to the thoughfulness of the Ewings, intertubes are provided for tubing down the river and that was an adventure (they even had a basket full of water shoes in lots of sizes). As far as the accomodations...the cabin is prestine and cozy (nicest cabin we've ever stayed in and we've stayed in a lot of them). The Ewings have thought of every detail from having coffee and little creamers available for the coffee maker to providing a REALLY comfortable mattress. Even the gas grill on the porch is spotless. Burnsville is a quaint little town but we rarely leave the property because we enjoy just being there. Over the years we have always visited some place different in NC with each vacation. Ever since finding Riverwalk, we have not vacationed anywhere else in NC. We have found that all we need for a wonderful and relaxing vacation is right there.

My family and I were looking to get away from the suburbs for vacation to a somewhat luxurious log cabin with a mountain view, hot tub, seclusion and quiet. We had a wonderful time at the Ewing's property. The cabin is beautifully decorated and the Ewing's stock it with everything you can think of from DVD player to wireless internet connection. Their property is lovely and the pavillion by the river was a wonderful surprise. We enjoyed the tubing, horse shoes and badminton they provided for their guests. We did day trips to many different sites from Ashville to Brevard to Mt. Mitchell to Roan Mountain and Burnesville was centrally located and a perfect choice for what we were looking for. I must admit we expected a little more seclusion given the acreage of the Ewing's property but found numerous houses along the other side of river which were a little noisy - lawn mower, log splitting from time to time. This didn't detract much from the experience and we had a wonderful time. The Ewing's were very charming and helpful host. I would definetly recommend Riverwalk Rentals.

My husband and I were looking for a private but not too secluded riverfront property with a hot tub, and we wanted a little luxury for a good price. We got that and more!

These cabins are pristine, looking like they were completed only last week. They have lovely decor, gleaming hardwood floors, and a wonderfully equipped kitchen.

The location is great, only a few minutes south of Burnsville, which has an amazing grocery store for a town its size. There couldn't be a better launching point for a day of hiking to waterfalls, driving the Blue Ridge, scaling Mount Mitchell or heading to Asheville if you want more "civilization."

Finally, but certainly not least, the Ewings are gracious hosts. They'll provide knowledgable tips about where to eat, hike, or shop. And feel free to spoil the resident horses and goats.
