Satisfy your cravings for that far-away retreat with a stay at this secluded but not isolated vacation rental cabin for 2! This 1950's 1-bed, 1-bath home has been perfectly renovated with modern amenities and outdoor hangouts, like the new deck that stretches over the Pacolet River and screened porch, just off of the bedroom. It lies just 3 miles from the heart of Tryon, 15 miles from Tryon International Equestrian Center, minutes from Asheville, and a day trip to Pisgah National Forest!
-- THE PROPERTY --
Bedroom: King Bed
Despite its recent updates, '55 Riverby Lane' has maintained its nostalgic feel - noticeable in the stone wood-burning fireplace, old-fashioned gas stove, and the rustic hardwood floor. Modern amenities perfectly contrast the latter creating a comfortable and convenient home-away-from-home!
Prop up your feet on the living room's plush furnishings, where you can dive into a new novel or binge watch your favorite Netflix shows on the flat-screen Smart TV. Just a few steps away, you'll find everything you need to whip up a full meal in the well-equipped kitchen, if you desire to eat in!
Unwind on the furnished porch or within the protected boundary of the screened porch, sipping a nightcap as you listen to the calming sound of the Pacolet River.
End the day with a hot shower in the full bathroom, before slipping under the covers of the king-sized bed. In addition to the plush bed, the bedroom also features a vanity and a closet, so you won't have to live out of your suitcase!
-- THE LOCATION --
Feel far away while still being close to plenty of entertainment and activities during your stay at this quaint cabin! The heart of Tryon is just 3 miles down the road - where you'll find antique shops and restaurants like Lavender Bistro and Harper Eatery & Pub.
Tryon International Equestrian Center, roughly 15 miles north, features horse shows like the Rolex Central Park, along with many other events like 'Saturday Night Lights!' The property is also close to Foothills Equestrian Nature Center and Harmon Field.

We enjoyed our stay here tremendously, from the brownies greeting us upon arrival (heartwarming)...watching and listening to the river below (tranquility)...short distance from hiking trails and fishing...it was exactly as described, rustic...very peaceful...will definitely be on our revisit list...

Great NC cabin
The cabin was clean and cozy. Loved the quiet and sound of the river outside. I would definitely stay there again. Hope they fix the bridge as it would be a challenge to go over if your car was low to the ground.
Very nice. Close and convenient to multiple towns and activities.

Quaint little cabin
Such a cute cabin and it's like you are nestled in the tree tops. The sound of the river running behind the house is truly the best part about this place! So calming and relaxing when sitting outside, don't look at your watch and just enjoy being there. Plenty of space for 2-3 adults and the bed is super comfy. The cabin is nicely equipped in the kitchen. Internet service is great and they are not kidding when mentioning that cell service is not the best, it's not existent. If you need to work remotely, the WiFi works like a charm so you have no excuses. The local contacts for the property management are very nice and responsive whether you have an issue or if you need a local recommendation. Some things to be aware of: The road and bridge leading to the house are horrible and in desperate need of repair. If you drive anything but a truck or SUV, be very careful or you will damage the underside of your car crossing the bridge. There is a rundown former motel that is part of the view from the back porch, which is really too bad but it seems to align with the patchwork of other decaying properties scattered in between the very nice properties you pass in the area off the main road.

There was a reversed air conditioner in the wall for heat which I cabin was freezing when we got there and the only other source of heat was in the bedroom it had a gas heater in the wall which I was very uncomfortable with didn’t like yo sleep with a lit flame in the room or freeze to death the bridge getting over the river to get to the cabin was very very unsafe was all rotted out so the placed planks across so you can drive over at the end of both sides of the bridge was a foot drop which almost bottoms out your car we had to supply our own fire wood for the fire place to try to keep us warm which the fire place was very nice that was the height light of the cabin it was very clean and cozy
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Close to Tryon, Saluda, and Landrum, SC which have quaint Main Streets with nice restaurants, art galleries, and other shopping. Don’t miss Pearson’s Falls for a nice hike to waterfall.
My wife and I are in our mid sixties and been married been married 49 years most time we travel is with family members We need time to be alone and reestablish our relationship together this was a perfect place and time
This place was the perfect escape for me and my husband. It was so peaceful listening to the river while sitting in front of a fire snuggled under a blanket. Great location close to fantastic restaurants and shopping. Bed slept great too. We will definitely stay here again!
Highly recommend this property for an easy getaway. It was spotless, so well-equipped, very comfortable and charming. Unique furniture pieces, the owners art and the babbling river lulled me into complete relaxation. I especially loved the very comfortable bed and how easy it was to settle in. The hosts are wonderful and made check in and out seamless. They spent their dinner hour solving my inability to navigate TV and Netflix technology! Wifi is great! The location is another plus. You are nestled in the woods yet minutes from charming downtown Tryon. This is perfect for a couple or a single person.
We completely enjoyed our stay and treasured the sound of the water as it ran over the river rocks. The vintage stove was a pleasure to use and we looked forward to relaxing on the screened porch and watch the stream. The one time we needed to contact the property manager, they were so helpful and responsive. Our stay was truly enjoyable.
This home was lovely with recent renovation. If you want to use the fireplace, bring your own wood. As far as pandemic caution, we found the place very clean. However, there was spillage on kitchen floor in front of cabinet for plates, cups, etc. Also spillage in front of stove. I assumed the floor had not been mopped. With cleaning fee of $ 118.00, I would expect mopping and vacuuming to be complete. I balked when considering this place to rent based on the high cleaning fee. Due to the distance we were willing to travel from our home, this place met our criteria for getting away from home during the pandemic. The Pacolet River is wonderful to see from inside or outside the home and the sound of rushing water all night and day was blissful. It was safe and very refreshing. All needed kitchen pans and gadgets were readily available. We ate all our meals in.
This place is perfect! Well stocked, clean, quiet and the river is so peaceful! We really enjoyed our stay.
We did lock the key in the cabin accidentally and had to call the property manager. He answered immediately and was able to help us.
Overall this property is very well priced and the owner and property managers are top notch!
The cute cabin was perfect as a quick getaway for some peace and quiet. The cabin was nicely decorated and immaculately clean. I so enjoyed the deck and screened in porch where I listened to the flowing stream right out the front door. There was lots of hiking to beautiful water falls. I recommend you bring your own food as there were a only a few restaurants open during the off season. Internet is great but no phone service in the cabin. Absolutely loved it and will be back! Highly recommend
Simply put, this little “cabin” was perfect for a few days getaway for my bride and me! We’ve already decided we will come back, probably in a different season (winter/spring)! It was just perfect in every way!
