Great stay

The property was a perfect location for us stay while traveling to be with family for Thanksgiving. We enjoyed the view of the river and we’re sure it’s even better in the summer. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. We are thankful to have found this place that allowed us to travel with our dog.

Charleston getaway

Riverfront Retreat is a quaint, charming, well appointed two bedroom house located on the Kanawha river. The house is very clean and well stocked in the kitchen and bathroom. I think it's an exceptional value for a couple or small family.

Mother/Daughter Girls Weekend

The house was comfortable and clean, neighborhood was calm and quiet. We really enjoyed sitting under the covered patio and visiting next to the river. This would make a great place to say in the heat of the summer! The property manager was very kind and communicated well. We would recommend and stay again.

Perfect place for our family

We visit this area for youth baseball tournaments. We loved this place and will be a must pick next time. Check in was as easy as putting a code in for a key. Check out was as easy as putting your trash in the main trash bin. Full house with an awesome river front view. Thanks for hosting!
