There are tons of indoor games and puzzles for guests to enjoy in case of rainy-weather. The nearby kitchen is fully-stocked and offers plenty of space for the family chefs to prepare a delicious meal. There is a drip coffee maker so be sure to bring filters and your favorite grounds!

Perfect place for the kids to hang out and play!

The patio can be accessed using the glass doors in the kitchen. Enjoy a cup of coffee or your favorite beverage while relaxing in the high top Adirondack chairs. Listening to the roar of the New River just steps away. There are also several other chairs on the patio for guests to use. Downstairs in the basement, you'll be able to open up the doors on a warm summer day and enjoy a competitive game of pool, indoor basketball or card games at the poker table with friends! There is also a nice sitting area in the basement with a flat screen TV. There is a gas grill just outside of the basement.

The yard outside is the perfect area for your favorite tailgate games! The owners have a plethora to choose from such as Spikeball, Bocce Ball, and cornhole boards.

Weekend Getaway Bliss
We spent a long weekend at the cabin and had a lovely time unwinding and relaxing. Everything was very clean and tidy. We spent most of our time on the back porch listening to the river, it was wonderful!

Great weekend!
We live near the beach and wanted a different experience. So off to the Mountains! The river behind the house was the most perfect sound in the mornings and evenings. The stars were brighter than we have ever seen before as we sat around the fire out back. The 4 teens pretty much stayed in the basement playing games when we were not out snow tubing, mountain coastering or shopping all of the local shops. W.Jefferson was only a short 20 min drive, Boone was a 20 Min drive and all of the surrounding areas like Beech Mtn, Valle Crusis, Banner Elk were all easily accessible. There were no negatives to speak of. The house was well equipped, VERY clean and felt like home. Check is was EXTREMELY easy. And so was check out. The extra shelving in the upstairs bath was a life saver with 3 teen girls to all have a shelf for their things instead of piling it all on the counter. The outdoor furniture on the deck is high quality and very comfortable. And enough for everyone to sit and rock!!!

Nice cabin not worth the price
Initial contact was great. Once we arrived we were very disappointed. The home was not clean and some linens had not been changed. We were traveling with infants and had to vacuum before we could even consider putting them down. We found food on the couch, in beds, under the furniture and there were not enough towels as described. The toilets required plugging and we had to have maintenance out to drain the bathroom sinks. Overall, it was too pricey for the experience. We have stayed at other cabins before and this by far our least favorite.

Great Spot
We had a great weekend at the property and brought our dogs with us. The front and back porch are gated so that made it super nice with the pets you could let them on the porch and didn't have to worry about them running off. We would definitely stay here again in the future!

So much to do right at the property
Our family of 9 came to Boone area for a Fly Fishing trip. The River Roost house was perfect. Plenty of room for all. Beautiful Setting with the river behind the property. My kids and grandkids had plenty of things to keep them busy while at the house. They enjoyed the Kayaking, they had bonfires each night with smores, they played cornhole and enjoyed the game room each night, even though some of the games needed attention to fix minor issues with them. The back porch was great having a toddler with the gates for security. My husband and I also loved sitting on the porch watching the kids enjoying their vacation. Great House!!

Easiest checkin ever! We had rain for most of our stay but there was plenty to do inside. My favorite was sitting in the glider rockers on the covered porch watching the water and wildlife. We will definitely return.

Our favorite place
We enjoyed this house so much! It was spotless clean and very comfortable. The beds and furniture were very comfortable. The porch furniture was very nice and we loved sitting out there listening to the river. My children were perfectly content staying at the house and playing in the game room. The house isn’t far outside of Boone and didn’t take long to get places. The roads and driveway leading up to the house were very manageable and didn’t make me nervous. My family is begging to go back this summer. Thanks for letting us borrow your home!

Great place for families!
We visited this place with two families (4 kids ages 6-9) over a long winter weekend, and it was awesome! Highly recommend!! It was nice, clean, and the awesome downstairs game room produced hours of fun. Throw in the cool location (on a beautiful river, just a few minutes from Boone, skiing, etc.), and it's hard to beat! We hope to come back in the summer when we can put the kayaks to use too!

We enjoyed our stay, the house was perfect for a house full of boys! They fished, took over the basement, and enjoying the back yard! We were lucky enough to get snow, so they built forts and had snowball fights. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were comfortable, overall the property is well cared for! We will be back!

The house was amazing!
Our family had a great time visiting NC. The rental felt like a home away from home. It was packed with everything. My boys and hubby loved the downstairs pool table and basketball game. The wrap around deck was great to enjoy the mornings and it allowed my Aussie to enjoy the outdoors without a leash. I would definitely go back! Thank you to the owners for sharing this beauty with others.

Perfect Riverside Getaway
The photos do not do this property justice. Everything was very clean, well appointed and stocked with everything we needed and more. Plenty of room for our group to spread out and gather when we wanted! River bank was a little steep and the fish were not biting but the house/property were perfect. You will find everything clearly labeled and stocked!

Peaceful Paradise
We had a great time with our family. The cabin exceeded our expectations and there were plenty of activities for us to entertain while enjoying the tranquility and the sound of the water by the porch. Almost everything was very clean with the exception that one of the bed had some dog hair but nothing major that was solved immediately. We can’t wait to repeat our next vacation at this beautiful cabin. Thanks for sharing your wonderful place. 😉
