Unwind, Unplug, Hike

This lovely cabin was very clean and stocked with everything needed for a nice stay. The river seating area (across the street from the cabin) is private and calming. Take a sweater or jacket with you to the river. The hot tub is private and a nice way to unwind after a day of hiking and exploring. Be aware that after the 2024 Hurricane Helene, there is not much to do in Hot Springs beyond hiking the Appalachian Trail, but the town is friendly and accessible. Definitely dine at the Smokey Mountain Diner and hike the Lover's Leap Trail, which are both very close to the cabin. The binder in the cabin detailing what to do nearby was created pre-hurricane, so not all options therein are currently available. The road is quiet, as it virtually leads to nowhere. It was fun to walk this gravel portion, though, as we tried to find Paint Rock. We thought four wheelers would have made it even more fun (if you have some to take). The CABIN IS ON THE PAVED PORTION of the road, so we had NO PROBLEMS reaching it, and it has flat parking. The owner is friendly and helpful if you need her, but not at all pushy. Take your own fishing poles if you'd like to fish the river. For a small but packed antique store, head down 25/70 toward Newport and shop at State Line Antiques on the right and Grandma's Blessings Thrift Store a little further on the left. We enjoyed our 3-nights of star-gazing, hiking, antiquing, and relaxing. Highly recommend!

Perfect Mountain Oasis

Stayed with family and it was one the nicest places we have ever stayed. The host supplied whatever we could have needed. The gorgeous landscaping, the dreamy yard, and the screed in deck made our stay a prefect family getaway. It rained during most of our stay, which made the river high. But we did some amazing hikes instead and still had the best time. The kids loved the hot tub, too! game.mighy

House was clean and comfortable.

This was our second stay at this property. Very clean, enjoyed sitting in the chairs on the river bank, and the fire pit in the back yard. Very quiet at night. Hope to do it again next year!

Amazing Peace

The owners are on point with the amenities! We had absolutely everything we needed and more. I loved the personal touches they have provided at this property. We had robes, makeup removers, first aid kit, teas, coffee/filters, everything to cook with. You just come, bring your essential needs and what you want to cook. The grounds were immaculate, river area was nice, and listening to the shoals from the front screened in porch was amazing! Loved the fireplace, fire pits, and hot tub! Much needed peace, thank you!

About the host

Hosted by MoonDance River Cabin

We have lived in the mountains here for many years and enjoy the beauty and serenity this special area affords. We built MoonDance River Cabin so that our guests can also share this experience and relax and be refreshed in the beauty of the mountains and river.

Steve and Cindy

Why they chose this property

The location is so special by the French Broad River. It is just outside the town of Hot Springs, in a tranquil, quiet setting. It gives a great place to relax and enjoy the river, woods and trails. Come back to the cabin and sit back in the hot tub on the private covered porch and take in the beauty of the mountains! You can be to restaurants and shops in less than 5 minutes. The Hot Springs Spa is close by also where you soak in the amazing natural mineral water and have a massage. A great place to ride your bike, fish or boat. Our desire is to create a quality cabin which reflects all the charm and style of the mountains combined with the comforts and amenities to make your vacation enjoyable and a special experience.

What makes this property unique

Unique riverfront location. Just outside the town of Hot Springs with the National Forest, Appalachian Trail, white water rafting, horse back riding, whitewater rafting, kayaking, biking, fishing, etc. all at your doorstep.
