About this property
Riverfront direct access to trout river with tranquil views
Home away from Home on the South Toe River! Everything you need to enjoy the view and relax. Our home is accessible no matter what the weather. County maintained asphalt roads all the way to the driveway.
This home has 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths on the main level and a bedroom and a full bath in the finished basement. In the basement there is a game table and many games in the closet. The Custom Bar and game table are all done in tasteful log cabin decor. Sorry.. the bar is not stocked. BYOB The comfy sectional couch is a great place to hang out with a 50" smart tv. A walk out porch is the perfect place to swing and enjoy the view.
Upstairs enjoy the gas fireplace and watch your favorite TV show on the 50" smart tv. Read a book on the upper deck at the table under the umbrella as the birds eat at the feeders down below. Hummingbirds abound in the spring and you can see the trout swimming in the shallow waters in the South Toe River. In the summer, you can rent tubes and drop the kids off upstream for them to get out right at your back yard. Trout fishermen are a common sight as well as other families floating downstream. If the water is high enough, you will see a few kayaks floating down river. Sleep at night with your windows open and let the sounds of the river lull you off to sleep! Wake up refreshed with a great cup of tea or coffee at the kitchen table which looks right out at the South Toe River.
No Matter what time of the year it is, the view is astoundingly peaceful!
The main level has 2 steps to get in and there is a set of stairs inside to get down to the basement where the game table and bar and sectional with tv are located.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Robin and Mike Fowler (mostly Robin 😊)

Mike and Robin are empty nesters with two grown sons; Mike is retired from the US Army and Robin owns her own business. Oldest son is in the Army following in Dad's footsteps and youngest son is working with youth at the church he grew up in.
Why they chose this property
Mike went to college at Western Carolina University and his parents bought a home in the general area many years ago. We spent many years looking for just the right home and it HAD to be on the river. Mike really enjoys fly fishing and Robin just likes the serenity of being close to the water. Both of us actually grew up in South Florida so having a home in the mountains has always been a dream for us.
What makes this property unique
When we get there it isn't unusual for Robin to just settle in, read books and relax. We enjoy going to the square to eat and visit our favorite clothing and gift shops. For lunch, there is the Garden Deli where you can eat inside or out and it's right on the square. There is a new Brewery off the square HomePlace which has pretty good food. In the spring, summer and fall, there is a craft fair featuring all kinds of local ware right on the square. There is a quaint little ONE SCREEN old-time theater that we are hoping gets refurbished and there is even live theater at Parkway Playhouse. You can check for events on Yancey County Chamber of Commerce website. Mt Mitchell Golf Course is 10 minutes up the road and Carolina Hemlocks is a state park/camp site where you can rent tubes and play in the river. Grandfather Mountain is about 45 minutes away and has great view and places to picnic. Crabtree Falls is a campground/state park that allows you to follow the trail down to view a very cool 60 ft waterfall, just remember you have to hike back up. Be sure and take the walking sticks provided at the house! This is a challenging hike. You can do a lot or nothing at all and still have a wonderful time.
