About this property
Relaxing peaceful cabin retreat
Our cabin is located in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains in the gated community of River Country Estates, Piney Creek NC. We named our cabin River Perch because it sits perched high atop the mountain side giving you beautiful views of the river and long range views of the mountains. You can get away from all the busyness to enjoy the peace and tranquility of the mountains. Our cabin is newly constructed , 2100 sq. ft. with 3 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. Main level has family/living room, kitchen, 1/2 bath, bedroom with queen bed and private bath. The upper level has a loft with sitting/reading area, bedroom with queen bed and private bath. Lower level has the second family/living area, bedroom with two twin beds, full bath, utility room with washer & dryer. Cabin has new furniture & stainless steel appliances in kitchen. Main level living area has a wood burning stone fireplace. Lower living area has a gas stone fireplace. Flat screen televisions in both family rooms and lower bedroom. There are two spacious covered wrap around decks to enjoy the mountain views and the sound of the gentle flowing river. With access to the New River (second oldest river in the world) you can launch a canoe, go tubing, or just float down the beautiful scenic river. You are nearby River Camp USA and riverside canoe rentals. Other attractions nearby are winery tours, Mount Jefferson State Park, Stone Mountain State Park, and Grayson Highland State Park. To just get away for awhile you can visit attractions at these nearby towns (Sparta 15 miles, Jefferson & West Jefferson 22 miles, Boone 47 miles.) River Perch is the perfect cabin rental for your getaway or vacation. Please make our home your mountain home away from home.

What a wonderful weekend. We enjoyed the mountain views, with all the windows and the many outside seating options. We particularly appreciated the well-stocked kitchen, and the two different living areas. Lovely gated community but cabin is surrounded by beautiful trees and feels secluded.The home is warm and inviting and I'd love to return one day. Mary, the host, made communication a breeze.

About the host
Hosted by Roger and Mary Manning
We purchased River Perch cabin as our personal vacation home in the Blue Ridge Mountains. We named our home River Perch because the cabin literally sits perched atop the mountain side offering beautiful views of the river and mountains. It is our peaceful and stress free destination to relax and unwind. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we do.
Why they chose this property
We had looked at several homes in nearby towns of the Blue Ridge Mountains and this actually was the very last property on our list. Once we stepped on the porches and walked to the back of the cabin , we just stood and admired the beautiful views of the river and mountains. We knew this was the one for us. We love the privacy of the cabin , but also the security of being in a gated community. We also chose this area because our travel time from home is less than 5 hrs.
What makes this property unique
Our cabin is the perfect private getaway to unwind and relax and to just take in the beautiful views. It is also located in close proximity to several nearby towns and attractions for those who would like to get away for the day. There are canoe & tube rentals nearby. state parks to visit, winery tours , historic sites, quaint shops to browse in, Ashe County Cheese Factory and store in West Jefferson, farmers markets nearby, and many other attractions.
