Cape Fear Getaway

We had a very nice time at the cabin! Large and plenty of room! The stairs were good exercise for our ol' bodies! The area was a beautiful location! Very peaceful! We enjoyed sitting down by the river and watching the occasional boats that would go by! We visited the wineries, and walked through the quaint town of Elizabethtown. A must lunch or dinner out is the San Jose Mexican restaurant!

Ball Family Hunting Trip

The RivaGeyAway was a great place to stay for our family hunting trip in the Bladen County area. It was comfortable for the 7 of us and our two dogs. The river is right out the back door and the setting is very quiet and peaceful. Hot tub was a hit with the younger of our crowd. It was a bit chilly at night outside so we didn’t use the outdoor lounge spaces as much but there are plenty there to use. Cabin was clean and spacious. Dale and his wife were very friendly and accommodating. Definetly recommend for anyone looking to get away to the woods !!

Nice quiet Getaway

My daughter , son-in-law, and my adult son stayed with me. Pets are allowed, with understandable restrictions. There's an enormous amount of deck space. This not only allows your pet/s to run and play without worrying about them running to the neighbors, but also lends to a variety of seating on each level for the humans too. Linens and hot tub are upcharges. The owner is very responsive and kind, if you need anything. There's a charcoal and gas grill. If you are kitchen people, the bakeware is limited. However the local Dollar Store has inexpensive aluminum alternatives. We also had to purchase hangers. If you're a tv watcher, you're set! Chuckle They have every streaming option possible. If you have knee or hip issues, there are stairs. But i think the most steps at a time was 11 or 12. If you're bringing children, i would recommend one baby gate to block off the stairs down to the river. There are two wineries close by. LuMill within a few minutes. Definitely check out there jelly, jam, and preserves options! Yummy. The cabin feels very private and woodsy, but its literally a few minutes into town. This was our third visit to the cabin and we love staying here!! Oh, youll want to purchase drinking water or bring a filter pitcher. We drink tons of water, so a pitcher is the most economical. We stayed for a week. The cabin and location is lovely.The owners are very responsive and kind. Its ALWAYS clean. Its a wonderful spot! Go

Peaceful Weekend Away

Our stay on Cape Fear River was everything we needed. Serene river views, plenty of outdoor activities and all the solitude we needed for a peaceful weekend away from the city. While the home is rustic yet charming, the real stars of the show are the decks, patios, gazebo and floating dock. We spent so much time outside and enjoyed every minute!
