The Evening Shade River Lodge and Cabins

We went for a small girls trip weekend. The views were amazing. The river sounded wonderful, and it was within walking distance to downtown. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Beautiful cabin and beautiful view. Great service. No phone service only wifi

My wife and I had a wonderful stay at Evening Shade. It was very clean and the bed was comfortable. There was a balcony overlooking the river and with a view of Chimney Rock. They had grills and picnic tables that we would have used if weather had been permitting. The room we stayed in even had a little kitchen with all amenities. We will definitely be back in the spring to enjoy all the amenities.

We payed for a double room with a balcony view. They ended up downgrading us to a single room and we ended up paying the same price. Kind of a smack in the face for us on our honeymoon.

With rating of 9.2, we were excited about staying but did not expect how misleading this way. When we got there, the couple was very friendly. Check-in was fine. When we went to the room: TV would not work. Internet would not work. Air conditioner and heater would not work. I went to the front office and found they had left so I called them. They said that they would be back in about few hours and would walk us through the steps to getting the TV to work. We found dirty socks in the closet and used bar of soap in the shower. It was late so we couldn't go anywhere else so who knows if the sheets were even changed. One of the chairs in the room was broken. When the agent came, he kept messing with TV and couldn't get it to work so he went and got another TV and got it to work. Told me the internet was spotty but should have no problems. It took me 30 min from one page to another...I finally gave up. The overhead light fixture would not come on...he yanked it and said it was broke and he couldn't fix for this visit. Room was very small. Very disappointing.

The view and location of the river was awesome. The proximity of the shops was great. It was just a few things that could’ve been improved in the apartment itself. When I walked across the floor barefoot my feet were dirty, like they had not mopped the floor / lvp. The Faucet in the bathroom needs an aerator. Could’ve used a couple of night stands. Beds are fairly soft, which is not good for my back but my wife loved it. Recommend having one soft mattress and one stiff. Internet was not good very spotty and no USB connections for charging. We enjoyed our stay overall.

Although it was a quaint, very tiny room. The window air conditioner, leaked onto the carpet, it was musty, smelling, and damp. My husband could not stand up in the room without hitting his head on the ceiling. He’s 6’3” tall. The shower is was so small. I had to crouch to wash my face. This was not a place for children, or the elderly since walking down to the river, was unsteady and dangerous.

Very quiet, friendly place. The river was beautiful. The only issue wasn’t from the place itself, whether it was someone parking in our spot even though there was a sign stating parking for our room only.

Nice view of waterfall and mountainside. was clean. i was shocked at the ceiling height of the room and bath. i could not fully stand up in the room or shower. ceiling height was barely 6'. Is this legal?
