Well equipped property in great location

We enjoyed our time at this house- it was clean, fully equipped with kitchen necessities (we eat in with a family of 6 adults/2 children) and convenient to many attractions. If you suffer from any allergies you will appreciate the cleanliness and care of this home. We had 3 generations together and there was ample space for everyone. We look forward to returning.

Yearly fishing trip

This was our first time going to North Carolina for fishing as we normally do the golf. We were excited to spend some time in the mountains and tour some of the smaller surrounding towns. With several local amenities, restaurants, breweries and shopping in the area everything was around 10 minutes away. This made it easier for us to navigate quick trips for food and continue our fishing in the creek behind the home. There was tons of room for everyone to sleep comfortably and I even slept outside next to the fire pit one night. Comfort and location were top notch.

About the host

Hosted by Chris Herron

We are a family of six that loves to travel, but we always manage to find our way back to Western North Carolina. We love all of the outdoor activities that the Sylva area offers and we enjoy spending time on the Tuckaseegee and the areas other rivers and lakes. We hope you will love exploring Sylva as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

With Tucked Inn on the River, you will have easy access to local amenities such as restaurants and grocery stores without having to spend lots of time driving down a mountain just to go out to dinner. Just off of a main road, you can get to town quickly and you also have easy access to the area highways to go and explore nearby towns such as Cherokee, Waynesville, Cashiers or even Asheville.

What makes this property unique

Being right on the Tuckaseegee River is the perfect spot. You are able to watch the mist rise off the water in the morning with a cup of coffee, walk down the back steps to fish or wade in the water or enjoy a leisurely float down the river in one of the available tubes. The home is comfortable for a couple of people or a large group and provides ample, yet still cozy space.
