About this property

Riverwood at Mill Ridge - hot tub, arcades, firepit along Watauga River, walk to pool, tennis

Welcome to Riverwood at Mill Ridge!

This spacious home is centrally located in the High Country with quick access to Boone, Banner Elk, and everywhere in between! Next to the Watauga River, guests can enjoy the idyllic setting outside or spend time in the newly renovated inside. The main level offers dining in the formal room, with additional seating in the breakfast table and the counter. There is a gorgeous kitchen with matte steel appliances and granite counters, both Keurig and drip coffee, and easy access to the dining or living rooms. Near the front entrance is a half bath for convenience. Off the living area is the primary bedroom with a king bed and Roku TV. The attached full bathroom has a tiled tub/shower combination with jets and granite counters.

Head upstairs and you'll find two wings, each with two bedrooms and a shared bath between them in the hallway. To one side, a queen bedroom and a full over full bunk room with a twin trundle. To the other side of the home, a queen bedroom and a twin over full bunk room that includes a twin trundle. Each of the full bathrooms upstairs has a tub/shower combination and beautiful granite counters. Between the two wings is a large loft, set up as a great space for the family. There is a daybed with trundle to one side with a TV. The opposite side has a twin over twin bunk. For the littlest ones, the loft has a train table for hours of play. Cut down on your packing knowing that tucked in a closet are a high chair, bouncer, baby gates, and a portable crib.

Outside, the deck has been renovated and leads down to the grounds. Here you'll find the hot tub and stone patio with a fire pit and Adirondack chairs surrounding it. Explore the yard and walk to the Watauga River ten yards away. Guests may enjoy parking in the garage.

Additional Notes:
- This home allows up to 2 mature dogs with an additional pet rent of $25 per pet per night plus tax. Pets other than dogs are not permitted, as the owners are extremely allergic to cats.
- Firewood for the firepit may be purchased at the time of booking or with a week's notice. You'll receive two wrapped, kiln-dried bundles and a firestarter for $25/night plus tax.
- AWD/4WD or chains may be needed for all homes in the High Country, but this home has a perfectly flat driveway for easier access. Travelers visiting during the winter months where inclement weather may be possible should come prepared with an AWD or 4WD vehicle, and chains may also be required if it snows. No refunds, allowances, or date changes will be given to travelers who are not prepared with the proper vehicle, as outlined in the Rental Agreement.
- All BRMR homes offer well stocked kitchens with all utensils needed to cook meals. There is also a "starter set" of paper products at the house: a roll of toilet paper per bath, several garbage bags, a small vial of dishwashing liquid, a few tablets of dishwasher detergent, some laundry pods, a roll of paper towels, hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and some makeup remover cloths. There are enough of these items for one night, or maybe two. We do not provide hair dryers. Towels and linens will be provided.

- No parties or gatherings above the posted occupancy allowed at any time. Keep outside noise respectable.
