- 10 Guests
- 3 Bedrooms
- 4 Beds
- 2 Bathrooms
Escape to our beautiful riverfront sanctuary, where you can enjoy the tranquility of the mountains while accommodating up to 10 guests (max. 7 adults) across two of our luxury, modern treehouses. Each unit is beautifully and thoughtfully curated, nestled above the scenic French Broad River and surrounded by our quaint 50-acre farm.
Start your day with picturesque sunrises, fresh mountain air, and the soothing sounds of the river roar. For breakfast, indulge in our homemade farm-fresh bread, eggs from our chickens, and some honey from our bees in your coffee or tea. You can spend the day exploring the farm outdoors with on-site hiking, fishing, animal encounters, or hands-on classes. With just a quick drive, you can adventure to surrounding towns to experience the culture of WNC before returning to your private, peaceful sanctuary. In the evenings, unwind with a glass of Biltmore wine or local craft beers on the spacious porches, or gather around the firepit.

French Broad River Farms
225 Embler Two Road
Alexander, NC 28701
Embler Two Road dead ends at the top of our driveway, where there are 2 sets of stone gates and a sign reading "French Broad River Farms". Go through the stone gates on your left with the gravel road (Riversong Way). Continue slowly down the gravel drive. Just after the pond, keep to the left at the fork.
Continue following the gravel road. You’ll reach another fork in the road at the top of the hill-- veer left. You will see a blue gate propped open with a stick-- continue right on the gravel loop to your cabin! Blue Heron is the 1st cabin on your left. Lofty Ledges is the 2nd cabin on your left.
Cars traveling downhill typically have right of way. There are turn-outs you can use as needed.
GENTLE REMINDER: Roads in the Western North Carolina Mountains are inherently narrow, curvy, and steep at times. The access road to the cabins is a well-maintained gravel road, and is a bit hilly in several places. Four-wheel-drive is absolutely NOT required, but is recommended in inclement weather.
