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

Downstairs has two full size beds with privacy curtains, hooks, storage nooks at each bed, and a wood burning stove. Upstairs is a half-height loft split into two 6ft x 6ft areas. There is one full-size mattress on each side. Bed linens are provided – sheets, pillows, and blankets.
Due to moisture from the river, beds are not pre-made upon arrival.
This site includes a Breeo Smokeless Fire Pit with removable grill along with 6 Adirondack chairs, a picnic table and prep table. Private river access via stone steps.
Firewood bundles can be purchased at the Campstore, or you can order a pallet of wood before arrival. A heated Bathhouse with flushing toilets and hot showers is located centrally on the property. A port-a-potty is provided at this site as a convenience due to distance to the Bathhouse.
This is a screen-porch-like structure: the wood-burning stove will not fully heat the River House in cold temperatures.
