Thank you, Dustin! We really enjoyed hosting you and are so glad you had a great stay. You’re always welcome back anytime!
Enjoyed our stay. Clean, water views in the front and deer in the backyard. Great huge porch to enjoy, but too cold during our visit.Would stay again. 10-12 minute ride to West Jefferson shops and restaurants.

Cathy, thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay at On River Time. You were a wonderful guest, and we truly appreciate how well you cared for the cabin. We’d be happy to host you again anytime!
Responsive host, plenty of coffee, utensils and pans for cooking were great. Loved walking the riverbank. Quiet area. Wood for the fire pits and fireplace were nice. Just a nice relaxing weekend. Enjoyed watching the deer each evening.

We live a couple of hours away in Charlotte. We’re a family who loves spending time outdoors, especially in the mountains. This area has always been a special place for us, so we wanted to create a getaway that feels warm and welcoming for anyone who visits. Our hope is that when you stay here, you’ll feel right at home and leave with the same great memories we’ve made with our family.”

We chose Crumpler because it offers the perfect balance of peaceful seclusion and convenient access to nearby mountain towns. Nestled along the New River, the area is quiet and relaxing, yet just a short drive from places like Lansing and West Jefferson, where you’ll find charming shops, restaurants, and local culture. There’s no shortage of things to do here all year round. In the warmer months, the river is perfect for tubing, kayaking, fishing, and swimming, while the surrounding mountains offer endless hiking trails and scenic views. In the winter, Crumpler comes alive as part of the Christmas Capital of the High Country, making it a festive and magical place to visit during the holidays.
