The river view was beautiful! The kitchen was as well supplied as any place I have ever stayed. The living room and bedrooms were very comfortable and the hosts were friendly, helpful and very accommodating! There was an issue with the TV that they addressed and fixed quickly. I would not hesitate to stay there again and to recommend the Riverview Cottage to family and friends!

Another Great Stay

As was the case last year at their other VRBO home in Fries, VA the house was very clean, accommodations were exactly as described, and the owners are always responsive to emails and questions. I recommend this to anyone looking for a beautiful view of the river.

Can’t 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 can’t say enough about this place. Would definitely stay again

Super Lovely porch view!

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.

Quiet riverside retreat

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.

Fun in Fries

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 weren’t riding the trail.

comfortable and scenic location

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!
