Went on a trip with my brother and some friends and we loved the place! Had everything you could need. We enjoyed the game room and fire pit! Itâs close to Boone and some other cities if you want to get out and about. Definitely recommend!
The property had plenty of room for the kids to play and the river was a huge plus. The kids enjoyed playing in it and the adults enjoyed fishing. The house was just right for our family with plenty of entertainment and space. Highly recommend!
After losing a couple of loved ones this summer, my husband, sister and some close friends and I really needed to catch our breath and relax. River Bend was just the place. We hiked all over the area, and enjoyed the cabin too. We cooked in most of our meals and used the fire pit and hot tub too. Had trouble getting in at first, but was quickly helped by rental staff. Had a couple of other issues, that were also quickly addressed. Would definitely like to stay again in the future.
4 siblings and their spouses stayed for a fabulous, relaxing weekend. Being able to sit by the river and fire pit each night (and much of the day) to talk and laugh was fabulous. A trip one day into Boone and another to Old Barn Winery made this a perfect getaway.
The family and I had a great stay at Riverbend. Plenty of room to spread out, excellent amenities, lots to do inside and outside (or to just sit and watch the birds, listen to the wind, and watch the river flow by.) Good fishing spots are easily accessible and launching the canoe and kayaks are easy (just make sure you have a plan to retrieve them downstream after your paddle). Great cabin!
We had such a great time. This is such a beautiful peaceful place. Everything you need and more. Just as described. A lot of little special touches added by the owners made it better than anywhere we have rented /stayed in the past. Definitely would stay here again.
We stayed for a weekend, 2 families with 4 kids between us. The house was comfortable and well appointed. We particularly appreciated canoes, kayaks, life jackets, bikes (we never used b/c there wasn't time), the hot tub and the river. So much to do without going anywhere. A great stay!
The reservation and check-in process was very simple and streamlined. I had several questions and I was answered back within 24 hours each time. As for the home itself it was beautiful and equipped with everything we needed to have a great time. The home was clean, water pressure was great and the wifi was fast, although with the beautiful surroundings it was rarely used! We brought our own kayaks and also used the two at the house as well. We spent a lot of time in the yard and on the river. The house is located about 20-25 minutes from Boone. I would highly reccomended staying at Riverbend Retreat. Our party ranged in age from 11-75 and we all had a great time!
It was a total pleasure staying at this home. Gorgeous location and very well kept, well stocked, and clean home. Very clear and helpful check-in and check-out instructions. Our only complaint was that the hot tub water was quite dirty (so we could not use it), but otherwise, it was a truly wonderful experience!
We loved our stay at Riverbend Retreat! The pictures do not do it justice this location is beyond beautiful! We had fun kayaking, hot tubing, and playing pool all weekend long!
Easy check in and check out process. Abundance amenities for families for kids. Board game closet, hot tub, and full size basement with gaming options from pool, fooseball, and air hockey. Large enough to accommodate our party of 9. Beautiful views of the river in the mountain valley.
