We enjoyed our trip to Todd on the New River. The house was beautifully decorated and the kitchen fully stocked with everything we needed. The house was in a great location a short distance from West Jefferson and Boone. West Jefferson was our favorite place to shop and is a beautiful place with great antique shops. The inside of the house was very clean and beautiful. The host was very helpful. We loved the New River and will definitely be back!

Wonderful house right on the river. The house is equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay in a beautiful area of Todd. We enjoyed grilling, sitting by the firepit, river tubing, and kayaking. The house also has an amazing game room in the basement. We will definitely be back!

Thank you for the fantastic review! We're glad the riverfront location and fully equipped home made for a great stay. Sounds like the grilling, firepit, tubing, kayaking, and game room were a hit. We’d love to host you again. - BRMR
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!
We booked this property to celebrate our son’s 19th birthday. We really only had pictures, descriptions, and reviews to go on, but this property did not disappoint. We had a great time! The house is beautiful and very clean. We loved the location. We enjoyed the fire pit and the game room!! We will be back!

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!

This property was perfect for our family. It was plenty of space but not too much. The game room area was a hit! The living room and kitchen area offered lots of seating options for everybody to hang out and be together. We would stay there again, but our family is expanding this year so we would need more space. Highly recommend!

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.

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!

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!!

Fantastic property for family get togethers. Everyone in our party from ages 12 to 76 years old enjoyed themselves. The river runs right behind the house so every morning was enjoyed drinking coffee on the porch while listening to the water. Game room was a great set up. Had everything we needed. The area is isolated, so don't expect a lot of food delivery options. There are neighbors on either side, but the property is far enough away that you don't feel that your privacy is being invaded. Kitchen had everything you could need and the washer and dryer were a lifesaver. Property was clean and well kept. Only critique as far as comfort goes is the beds are VERY firm. We actually bought a mattress topper for our stay that helped a lot. Communication with the property manager was perfect and details of check in and check out we're precise. Boone is about a 20 minute drive, but we found ourselves wanting to stay at the house rather than go out. Can't wait to stay again.

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.

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!!!

We had 9 family members stay here at River Roost to attend our son’s graduation ceremony from APP State! We all were comfortable & enjoyed our stay! We want to come back and enjoy the river and beautiful outdoors! Go Mountaineers!!! 💛🖤👨🎓
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!
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!

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.

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!
