Pretty Blue House

We enjoyed our recent stay at the Riverside Relaxer. It was so new and fresh-looking and every bit as beautiful as the preview photos. The house was cozy and comfortable as the hostess thoughtfully saw that all necessities were provided. The gas log fireplace and Star Link-enabled internet service were plus luxuries. The fall colors and full view of the Little Tennessee River from the front porch were wonderful. This lovely "blue house" was so nice to come home to each day after being out and about. The only negative was the occasional traffic noise during the day. We would recommend a stay at the Riverside Relaxer to others.

Wonderful!

This quaint little house was just perfect…all the details have been thought of…robes, slippers, snacks, coffee, you name it. I’m sad we didn’t stay long enough to try the fire pit or the hot tub. So beautifully decorated too. We didn’t want to leave! Would highly recommend!

Long weekend trip

Loved everything about this place. We really enjoyed sitting in the hot tub every evening. The cabin is nicely furnished and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely beautiful home

We had a great place at this house. They had tons of games and provided coffee and snacks. The beds were super comfy. The view was beautiful and the hot tub outside was so relaxing and super clean. My only suggestion would be for better outdoor lighting going to the hot tub. There were some of those creepy spiders building webs across the porch to the shed and we kept walking into them 😂 we had a great week and enjoyed our time here.

About the host

Hosted by Tiffany Barrows

Hi there, my name is Tiffany, and I have been living in Macon County, NC for the past 6 years & have been coming to this beautiful area since childhood. After having children we started realizing staying in a hotel room just wasn’t as fun or comfortable as it once was so we started renting homes while vacationing…. After staying in some amazing and not so amazing places and my background in real estate and interiors, I decided to start hosting myself. Thank you for allowing me to host you on your upcoming trip to Western North Carolina or Beautiful Beacon.

Why they chose this property

This house is very special to me. Believe it or not this house was built in 1925, in the Spring of 2022, when driving past as I had for months and months I noticed a for sale sign. Before ever stepping foot inside I submitted an offer, which obviously was accepted.

In the months that followed, a full renovation, restoration, and renewing of this little River Farmhouse ensued. It is now ready to share, enjoy this amazing rare little river house. It’s a great location to enjoy the sights and sounds of beautiful Western North Carolina. With the gorgeous updated decor and furnishings, its relaxing surroundings and convenient location close to some favorite western NC attractions. Riverside Relaxer is perfect for those wanting to make memories, relax, and reconnect. Families, friends, couples, groups, vendors or buyers for the Gem Show, explorers, those seeking relaxation and adventure, pet friendly with accommodations for 6.
