Winding Stair Campground

River House

Tucked in the corner of the farm, this custom built, one and a half story bunkhouse is right on the Nantahala River. The River House is our interpretation of the southern sleeping porch, with a full height screened wall facing the river so you can hear its bubbling sounds from all four beds.
