This was the perfect place to stay to bike the New River Trail and to sit on the porch and watch the river go by. Lovely home and a very relaxing vacation. Thanks!
My husband and I were looking for a long weekend of much needed R&R and this fit the bill perfectly! The cottage is adorable and the kitchen well equipped. Access to the New River Trail couldn't have been easier and the quiet evenings sitting on the porch watching the river was exactly what we were looking for! Fine dining options were a bit limited but decided to take full advantage of the ambience/view by eating in (although it appeared WalMart was the only "upscale" grocer choice.). Be advised there are steps (both front and back) to access. Use of the locked garage/shed to store or e-bikes was also very much appreciated. Have put this on our list for a possible visit again in the fall.
We greatly enjoyed our time in the riverfront home! We had an excellent view of the river and dam and the home came equipped with just avout everything we could have needed. We look forward to another stay in the future!
Canât say enough about this property, inside and out. So much attention to detail. The house was so comfortable and charming. The river view being right across the street was great. Just canât say enough about this place. Would definitely stay again
Very clean and comfortable home. Rented for our in laws to stay and they loved it and the town. They even saw a Bald Eagle flying in the park. Owners were wonderful.
I rented the house for my mother who was visiting, and she couldn't have enjoyed it more! Wonderful property and the owners have thought of everything to make it very comfortable.
Highly recommend this rental. The view of the river is fantastic you are walking distance to a nice restaurant downtown and 5 mins to tube and kayak rental. They let us use the well maintained bikes for a beautiful trail right outside the door. They also lent us chairs for a concert at the BlueRidheMusic Center which was awesome. Extremely nice owners and extremely clean home.
Well kept, user friendly location in a sweet town. Lots potential for tip top outside activities like biking, water play, and fun things on grass (chuck a ball, frisbee, tag, etc).
Kitchen was highly functional and nicely equipped for making real meals.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this cottage. A lovely wrap around deck with views of the river and lots of seating. The kitchen was well stocked. It had everything we needed. It was great to be able to store our bikes in the shed when we werenât riding the trail.
My sister and I stayed here while in town for a family wedding. It was perfect for us and my sister wanted to make sure I left a 5-star review. We love the multiple outdoor sitting areas, especially the front porch overlooking the river. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen adorable, and the bathroom updated. It made our stay wonderful. We also appreciated having parking in the back, since some of the nearby homes only had streetside parking. It was slightly tricky to find, but after a few drive-bys (street side and alleyway), we found it. My sister and I 100% recommend staying here and will stay here again if we are ever in town.
Riverview Place was such a peaceful property and certainly exceeded our expectations. The home was very clean, and the owners provided everything to make our stay comfortable and convenient. We appreciated Richard's thoughtful communication and the historical preservation/significance of the property. We look forward to returning to this home for future New River Trail activities.
It was convenient to family in Galax Va. Also it was nicely furnished. The kitchen was equipped with all we needed to cook our meals. We like to cook our own meals when we can. Also it was scenic with the New River view from the porch. We plan to use this house again when we visit family. Thanks for the great stay!
We loved this home. It was a super cold weekend, but it was so warm when we walked in. Something about this place reminded me of being at my grannyâs house and that made me feel extra safe. Itâs close to a steakhouse, cafe and a bike trail. It was too cold to use the deck area, but it looked very nice - this is a well loved, clean home!
Enjoyed our stay. Nice updates to the house. Good utilization of space. Very good, quiet and cool running AC. Loved sitting out on the front porch with coffee while enjoying the river view. Very nice updated bathroom. Great parking spot in the back. Bikes safe and sound locked in the storage unit. Highly recommend rental.
Richard & Rachel were great to work with, prompt, thoughtful & helpful! The view from the front windows & porch is wonderful of the river! It nearly sounded like the ocean! The home is nice & very clean! The kitchen is stocked with anything you need! I would recommend staying here for a getaway & can enjoy as much hiking/biking as you want as well as to relax! The New River Trail is right across from the home!
Rachel is a retired Flight Attendant and Richard is a retired Police Officer...We live very nearby to both of our vacation rentals and will be happy to assist if needed...
