CastAway Waterfront Rustic Cabin Very Private With Outdoor Cabana

I can't say everything I loved about my stay here. Jack and Christy have set the bar for peace and quiet. The cabin is rustic in construction but refined. It was everything I hoped for and much more. The cabana was a wonderful place to relax, enjoy a campfire, listen to the river, while sipping wine. The inside of the cabin is so well appointed, everything I needed. To sit on the porch and enjoy the surroundings was heavenly. I saw turkey every day and a couple of deer who came down to the river for a drink. The hosts Jack and Christy are second to none, from warm greeting to helpful information. I hope to book this place again soon.

Everything was perfect. No problems at all and that is rare these days. Best accommodations ever.

Perfect in every way. Attention to detail on everything. Sitting on the front porch listening to the river - it doesn’t get much better! You will not be disappointed. We had an amazing trip! We will be back.

This cabin provides a private oasis of serenity and relaxation. The cabin is so clean and very comfortable. The kitchen provided everything you need to enjoy cooking away from home. The view of the mountains and river are amazing! The host is very accommodating and helpful in making sure your vacation is one you will cherish. We hope to return to this cabin soon!

Jack & Christy are the perfect host with the most beautiful property and cabin.

The home was beautiful, and we really enjoyed our stay. Looking forward to coming back in the summer.

The host was excellent. Very helpful with whatever was needed. Cabin was very clean, secluded and the creek was very relaxing and peaceful. This is the place to vacation.

The cabin was absolutely perfect

The cabin was as advertised. Everything was clean, well, appointed and the surroundings were peaceful. The hosts were exceptional. They even left treats for us upon arrival. Would definitely book this property again.

Jack & Christy are great! The property is just perfect, and attention to detail inside and out of the cabin is seriously remarkable. Location is awesome with wildlife at your doorstep and a flowing river just a stone’s throw from the porch. couldn’t have asked for a more cozy blue ridge mountain getaway with my fiancé!Hoping to get up there for a different season to experience more of what western NC has to offer!

We love this property the cabin is quality built and beautifully appointed. The comfort and cleanliness is rated 10. Perfectly situated on the Pigeon river private a real breath of fresh air. We have stayed several times and will be back. Jack and Christy are amazing hosts.

The cabin exceeded our expectations. The location was perfect and the cabin was just what we needed for a long weekend getaway. It has everything you could possibly need and was built and decorated with no expense spared. Our host Jack came and welcomed us with a box of goodies and gave us great ideas for restaurants in the area. If you want a great place to stay, this one does not disappoint.

This cabin is immaculate in so many ways, the craftmanship, its location, the feeling of security as its located on private property, the hosts are amazing and genuinely interested in your stay being the best it can be, and you can walk down to the rivers edge and fish all day!!!Plus Waynesville is one of the best if not THE best town in WNC.

Can’t wait to come back and stay again here! Absolutely beautiful!!

CastAway Cabin is a little slice of paradise! My husband and I spent a long weekend here and enjoyed every minute. The spotless cabin is cozy and comfortable and the scenery is amazing. Jack and Christy were amazing hosts. If you are looking for a quiet, peaceful getaway, this is the place. We are already trying to figure out a time to go back!

We loved Castaway Cabin. Jack and Christy, the hosts were amazing. The cabin was very clean and beautifully decorated. The pictures don't do it justice. We can't wait to return

We loved this private comfy retreat! The cows were so cute and the scenery was lovely. We loved relaxing in the cozy cabin, and Jack and Christy were wonderful hosts!

It is hard to add to the previous reviews that are all perfect scores and with glowing comments for the cabin(s) and for Jack and Christy. Here is what I can say... the most important measure in a successful business is the amount of return business. Jack and Christy have MANY returning guests who so love the cabins, the river, the mountains, and the people. Jack and Christy have done amazing things to recover the land and river from a once in a millennium disaster... a flood. But, they are back better than ever. Everything is great, so good, that we too will return in Sep for another visit to try one of the other cabins. This is a special place, cared for by special people. Don't miss it!!!

This cabin was perfect my husband and I. Loved the location and the cabin.

We had the most amazing relaxing time. The drive to the cabin is absolutely beautiful. It was nice to wake up and sit on the porch and read and just hear the water. We loved every second there. Keep up the good work guys. It was an amazing place. You’ve done a good job with it.

Simply gorgeous in every way.Jack & Christy were great!

Cast Away cabin was PERFECT for our anniversary! Absolutely Gorgeous! Listening to the river all day was extremely relaxing. A wonderful break from the noise. Jack and Christy are not only welcoming but also very thoughtful. They have truly poured alot of love into the cabin! Spectacular views, craftmanship, decor, ammenities, nothing was missed. My husband and I were amazed by all of the small details added. We can't wait to visit again!

It was an absolutely beautiful cabin and location! It had everything needed and comfortable! It was clean and beautiful! Perfect location to get to everything to do and eat! We will definitely be back!!!! Thank you so much!

This was such a quiet and beautiful place to stay! We definitely plan on returning! The hosts were very responsive and beyond welcoming. We only have good things to say about our stay!

Beautifully built cabin with attention to every detail for comfort. The only sounds are the birds and the rushing water in the river.

The property was perfectly cozy for my husband and myself. We sat on the porch every morning enjoying our coffee and watched the birds and listened to the river. One morning we were blessed with a couple geese on the river. The cabin feels very secluded but is close enough to shopping and restaurants.

What a lovely cabin that is so relaxing that it's so hard to leave to return home. Thoughtfully decorated and so clean that it looks brand new! The river is so soothing, and the view is incredible. We loved our visit so much. If you are looking for rest and relaxation, this is the best place!

First, the photos don’t do this place justice. You have three different spots to sit outside with coffee or a cocktail, overlooking the river. We watched osprey hunt for fish, had bonfires every night, and hiked around the property. The owners should write a manual on how to outfit a rental. We arrived to wine, a nice note, and some lovely snacks. Everything we needed - from coffee filters to binoculars to firewood - was already there for us, laid right where the need might arise. We’d rent here again in a heartbeat.

If you are looking for off the beaten path but yet close to things to do you don’t have to look further. Jack & Christy have really hit the mark when it comes to luxury. Every little detail has been thought of down to binoculars on the porch! We definitely will be coming back to WNC as we barely began to see everything we want to. Thank you for a great getaway and for checking in on us when we got there- 10/10!

This was our second time staying at Castaway Cabin and it's the perfect place to get away from a busy world and celebrate our anniversary. Jack and Christy are very responsive and even offered earlier check in since the cabin was ready

Jack and Christy do an outstanding job of creating a warm, welcoming and relaxing experience in their lovely cabin on the river. We had a wonderful time and I cannot recommend this lovely place highly enough! You will not be disappointed. They thought of literally everything for your comfort and enjoyment.

It was an amazing stay! The beautiful little cabin was nestled down by the river were we enjoyed listening to the water running over the rocks every morning with coffee.

Our Castaway Cabin stay was wonderful and truly an unforgettable experience. Firstly, the cabin is even better in person than the pictures portray. It is cozy, comfortable, immaculately clean and makes you feel relaxed the moment you walk in. Add the complete privacy plus serenity of the woods and creek and you experience nature at its best. Jack and Christy are excellent hosts who really care about you. All in all a 10,rating.

Great little getaway cabin for 2. The owner has a few rental cabins on thebriver on his property, so just make sure to get directions from him to get to the right spot (the address is to the entire property). The cabins are sporadic through the property, so you still have the feel (and reality) of being secluded.

I rented the cabin for my parents 37th wedding anniversary and they had the most relaxing and peaceful stay. I visited my parents one day at the property and the listing pictures do not do it justice. The cabin is far above any other cabin I’ve ever rented. The custom woodwork and attention to detail should be award winning. Not to mention peace and tranquility the cabin has to offer nestled right on the Pigeon River. The cabin was amazing and will definitely be enjoying this cabin for myself soon.

You couldn’t ask for a better location. The cabin and view was far above what we expected. Once you get there you will not want to leave and Jack and Christy are great host. I would highly recommend booking this property

We enjoyed five nights in this beautiful cabin on Pigeon River and will definitely be back. We’ve rented many cabins over the years and Cast Away is by far, the best. High end cabin with everything needed for a wonderful vacation. Jack and Christy were excellent hosts and the farm animals visited us in the mornings. What a delight! We will definitely be back.

I was needing some serious peace and quiet and this property was perfect. The cabin and the setting was beyond what I imagined. The attention to detail in the cabin and property was stellar. The owners went above and beyond for me. Couldn’t have been better; I’ll be back.
