Lovely Riverfront Home

Great time at this well maintained home on a private riverfront location. Very clean and well stocked. Family enjoyed the pool table, porches and fire pit. Great location for tubing and kayaking. Short drive to towns with great food and breweries. Be aware, extended stays require guests to carry own trash to local “convenience centers”.

Even better than expected

The property was better than we expected by far. We went in expecting a typical mountain cabin with some maintenance and cleanliness issues but we were pleasantly surprised that this place looks brand new. Much better than the pictures show. Kitchen is well outfitted, beds are comfortable, furnishings are nice, view is fantastic, and the game room downstairs kept our teens occupied every evening. Great experience and we will be back.

Good place but a few things gone need fixing…

Nice place to stay; close to west Jefferson. Unfortunately we were told the oven door didn’t shut but still cooked- this was not the case. We had to bake our food significantly longer. Also, the downstairs bathroom rug needed washing and the tub wouldn’t stop up so we could give the baby a bath. Other than that, great place!

We are thankful for your 4 star review and allowing us to host you at River Raves. We are glad you enjoyed the cabin. The owner has reported looking for a replacement oven but that the oven does heat to temp correctly. The door does not seal and no replacement parts are available. I have made the owner aware about the tub needing to plug. Hopefully that will be an easy adjustment to make. Housekeeping was not aware that the rug was needing washed but took care of it as soon as this was noted and would have done it upon check in if they knew. Sorry that was overlooked, as we have high standards. We look forward to you coming to visit and allowing us to host your stay again! Thank You, 4SeasonsVacations

Fun week at the river

Nice cabin by the river. Well appointed and has everything you would need. The gas grill works great. Bring darts to throw and the pool table was nice. The master bath shower was really tight but overall, a cozy cabin. The firepit was a great location looking down on the river and the decks were awesome in the am, got a bit warm in the afternoon but amazing views of the sunset over the river. The river was up following rain and this stretch is the most "rapidy" of the 3 miles we kayaked down. That makes for great sounds, ok fishing and tougher swimming/kayaking when rough. The way down to the water is very very steep. Fridge took a while to get cold but then was very cold. Appointments could be updated some as the decor felt less like the mountains and more like grandmas - but was fine. Our biggest issue were thee bugs that found openings into the house. Tons of stink bugs - which aren't scary - but annoying.

We are glad overall you enjoyed your stay! We are working with pest control to get the stink bugs under control. This is a problem in our area because it is an invasive, non native species that does not respond to treatment well. This cabin has so much for guests to find rest and relaxation away from it all. We hope you will come again. Thank You, 4SeasonsVacations

House is superb. Access to the River Subpar.

I have vacationed for weeks at a time from the mountains to the shores and have never found a house that had a kitchen better stocked than this one. From dishwashing and laundry detergent to sharp knives and even spices, this house was quite accommodating. There were also games and puzzles galore for rainy days along with the pool table and dart board. Our family had a great time also playing horseshoes. The upper deck porch with its rockers gave us a wonderful place to gather for coffee every morning. However, the trek to the river is so steep that although the weather was superb for our two weeks, our whole family only gathered there twice - once to go tubing (which was a bit treacherous) and once just to sit by the river. It is the reason I gave accuracy of online listing only a 3 out of 5. Only one of us went down regularly to fish. He seemed to have a blast, catching six or more - three of which were big enough to cook. But he was the most agile of us. One of us fell the first time she tried to get in and that was it for her. It seemed to us that the poor access to the river was just plain inexcusable. A modicum of digging and work could easily remedy that situation. Four of us tubed down to the bridge - about 2 miles away. However the banks had trees that had fallen almost all the way across. This made tubing more work than fun. The communication by Four Seasons, once we arrived, was also poor. A crew of men showed up to service the hot tub unannounced. They didn't knock or anything. They just came to the tub while one of us was in it in his underwear! Indeed, it appeared that they were hoping to catch someone indisposed as they reported to us later that they had done just that. It was the same with the mower - he just showed up unannounced, and didn't let us know he was there. We ran outside to get some of our shoes off the lawn and a good thing we did. He ran over one of the yard lights spewing glass everywhere. the reason? He was looking at his phone while he zipped around the yard on his riding mower. Lastly, the owners have no place safe from animals to put trash cans. We found the cans in the laundry room. Our choice of storing them was either leave them there to stink the place up for two weeks or put them on the upper deck where animals could not get to them. We chose the deck. But by the second week, our favorite place to gather now stunk. I love the area but would not choose to stay here again.

We are thankful for your review of River Raves! We appreciate you allowing us to host your stay! We are glad that overall you enjoyed your stay. This lovely riverfront cabin is mountainous and steeper to the river and the owner has tried to put in good stairs for guests. We hope you will check with us for other riverfront homes with flatter yards and less steep river access. The step into the river can be different depths based on water levels and erosion, as well. In our guest book instructions, we suggest guests to take trash to the local convenience trash centers, as we do not have local pick up. Perhaps that would have alleviated some of your issues. As for the lawncare, we do not know exactly when they are going to be there and the check in instructions for River Raves says: "Lawn will be maintained from April thru October and that includes grass mowing that might start as early as 8AM no more than weekly. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding in this matter." We hope you will check with us for other riverfront homes with flatter yards and less steep river access. The step into the river can be different depths based on water levels and erosion, as well. Thank You, 4 Seasons Vacations

A Lovely Mountain Home

This house was perfect for our getaway with friends. The kitchen was plenty large and was fully stocked with what we needed to make meals. The leftover spices from other guests came in handy. We took full advantage of the firepit, hot tub, pool table, and dart board. We were lucky to have great weather, but this house would have plenty of activities to keep the family busy if the weather was poor. It is a little steep as you head down to the river, but it didn't deter any of us from venturing down. We would definitely stay at this house again! I don't think the pictures do it justice!

Amazing river house!

One of our most memorable family trips. Beautiful house on an incredible river. The house was spotless when we arrived and we really appreciated the individually wrapped sheet sets. The kitchen is fully stocked and the separate downstairs living space worked perfectly for our teenagers. We fished all day and played family pool tournaments almost every night. We can’t wait to return next summer! Oh, and our dog loved the river too. Perfect rental experience. Thank you!

Beautiful well stocked home on a steep hill.

The cabin is very nice. It was impeccably clean. The beds were comfortable. It was well stocked with everything you could need for cooking. The hot tub was fantastic and we enjoyed the fire pit too. The kids spent a lot of the time downstairs in the game room playing darts or pool. The house has a beautiful view of the river. We enjoyed listening to the rushing water. Unfortunately it rained most of our trip so we were only able to walk down to the river once. I imagine it would be a blast to hang out on the river during the summer. The hill from the house to the river is pretty long and steep. Absolutely worth the trip, but if you have elderly or small children in your party it should be a consideration. DO NOT DOLLOW GPS TO GET TO THE HOUSE!! It says that on the paperwork but I “assumed” that was because you may not have service. Nope. It will take you way off course. We were on some crazy dirt back road and it said to park and walk to our destination. We knew we were in trouble. We back tracked and started to go by the directions in the paperwork. Even then it was a little difficult to find. The driveway is steep. If it snows you will need 4wd and or chains. This was one of the last things in the paperwork. I feel like it should be way higher on the list for people thinking about renting in the winter. It rained while we were there and had to put our van in 4wd low to get up the hill. Maybe we are chickens, but it put a damper on our evening activities because we didn’t want to drive on the curvy steep roads after dark. All in all I would rent this house again. They have created a beautiful space to share with others.

Beautiful cabin away from everything.

I was looking to recharge and this was perfect. Quiet, beautiful view of the river and we enjoyed every day we were there. Even the rainy days. Plenty to do on a rainy day with pool table darts or board games. I would give it a 5 star but the hill coming from river was a beast and the stairs need somework, very slick in the rain or when wet. Other than that the cabin was a good time and not too far from town.

However, the work on the steps will be on the to do list also! We hope you will come visit again! Thanks, 4SeasonsVacations
