About this property
Hot Tub, River Views, Couples & Families!!!
Morning Glory is a pet friendly cabin. Please see the last paragraph of this description summary for pet fees and pet policies...
Please note that a mailing address will be requested for the reservation file upon booking this home.
Morning Glory' at RIVERWALK...Private, Cozy AND Immaculate! Spend a weekend or a week in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Great location for every season of the year!
Morning Glory provides a large private hot tub just outside the front door on the deck. Sit in one of the front porch rockers to enjoy the view of the Cane River below as it flows past the cabin. At night, look up and be amazed by the abundant number of stars in the sky like you've never seen before.
What would a mountain cabin be without the scent and warmth of a wood burning fireplace? Each of our cabins has a wood burning fireplace. We provide free and unlimited wood for our guests during the cooler months of the year so you can enjoy cozy fires all day and all night, if you'd like.
If you demand comfort and ease while away from home, you'll find it here! Each kitchen is equipped as if it were our own for year round use. We also provide a starter supply of coffee, the filters, sugar and artificial sweeteners so you can arrive late, if necessary, and without feeling pressure to immediately run out for supplies. Starter toilet paper, paper towels and bath soap are provided. Dish soap, dishwasher soap, and laundry soap are provided in unlimited supply. If you need something out of the ordinary, let us know. Chances are we can make it available. Once you check in we want you to sit back and relax.
Comfort, we demand it and so should you! Every guest will rest well in our beds. Our mattresses are all Simmons Beautyrest and guests continue to give our beds the highest marks. Each cabin sleeps up to 4 guests. The master bedroom has a queen bed while the loft bedroom upstairs provides guests the option of either a pair of twin beds or a single king size bed. Simply specify your preference when booking the reservation. Each of the 2-floors has a full size bathroom.
High speed wireless internet, a landline telephone and extended basic cable TV is all included in our cabins.
All the property surrounding our cabins is family owned and available for exploration by our guests. In the Riverwalk community is a barn and horse arena owned by Laura's parents, Paul & Judi Ewing (the original Riverwalk cabin owners). While trail riding is not available, guests may book a social visit with Judi's horses just by giving her a call. Her phone number is listed in the Welcome (information) Book in the cabin. Kids especially get a kick out of learning how to care for and groom a horse. Donations made on behalf of the Yancey County Humane Society are appreciated (but not required).
Laura and her husband, Brett, own the adjacent property to Riverwalk, along Sunset Ln. Morning Glory guests are welcome to enjoy easy river access from a path along Sledrunner Rd just a short distance behind the cabin or from Sunset Ln with ease.
2-wheel drive vehicles are usually adequate to get to and from the cabins to the state road. If you have any difficulty whatsoever, we live just around the corner and are available to help you 24/7.
PETS:
While we are pet friendly, we do have a fee and minor requirements: The fee for a single pet is $75, 2-pets is $100. These fees apply whether booking for a couple of days or longer. VRBO has a "pets" box to check if you plan to travel with pets, but limit the ability to spell out fees and terms. If you are bringing pets, but forget to check the box or include in your initial email to me, I will ask.
We do not permit pets on the furniture, on the beds or use any of the cabin linens for pets (regardless of size or habit). This said, please be sure to bring comfy accommodations for your pets.
Thank you :-)

About the host
Hosted by Laura Watrous
I'm Laura Watrous. My husband and partner, Brett Watrous, are the owners of the two luxury vacation cabins that make up Riverwalk Vacation Rentals. We love our life in the mountains and find great joy sharing our special piece of the world with guests. Our cabins were originally designed with the kind of comfort and luxury we strive for when we vacation.
Why they chose this property
As the saying goes: 'I wasn't born in Burnsville but I got here as quickly as I could' The climate is perfect with four different seasons: Beautiful cool Summers, colorful Falls, relatively mild Winters, and fresh colorful Springs. Morning Glory is in a perfect location to make the most of why a Blue Ridge Mountain vacation is great any time of the year.
What makes this property unique
Morning Glory cabin is private yet convenient to features not available anywhere else. This cabin sits just above the Cane River with a wide open view of the river. The sound of the river actually echos in the porch rafters.
Riverwalk is close to Blue Ridge Parkway, Mount Mitchell and The Pisgah National Forest (pedestrian, bike, equestrian trails).
