About this property

Riverbend Retreat - New River frontage, hot tub, pool table!

Looking to spend a few days in the North Carolina mountains and have as much fun as possible? Look no further! This beautiful four bedroom home offers it all... River frontage, hot tub, fire pit and game room! Located off of the infamous Railroad Grade Road, this property is truly perfect for a family getaway or friends weekend!

*IMPROVED RIVER ACCESS AS OF 2025 - After Hurricane Helene reshaped the New River's landscape, significant improvements were made to the river bank, greatly enhancing access to the water. Please see gallery for more details.

The living room features beautiful hard wood flooring, a gas-log fireplace, flat screen TV with surround sound and cozy furniture! The nearby kitchen is well stocked for your nights spent at home cooking for the family. There is enough room at the dining table to hold 6 people. The master bedroom is on the main level and features a king size bed with an ensuite bathroom. There are three other bedrooms on the upper level, two of which have queen beds. The other bedroom features custom log style bunk beds.
One is a twin-over-queen bunk and the second is a twin-over-twin bunk, perfect room for kids! There are two full bathrooms on the upper level.

The lower level of the home features an epic game room with a pool table, foosball table, air hockey, basketball, and a flat screen TV! Open the garage door on a warm sunny day and get ready for an adventure-packed afternoon! There is also one kayak and one canoe available for guests to use. Please take good care of the equipment and return to game room when you are done.

We expect most of your time spent at Riverbend Retreat will be spent outdoors. There is a huge flat yard that offers plenty of space for yard games! Enjoy an by the fire pit as you listen to the sound of the flowing river near by. Feel free to bring fishing rods (NC Fishing License required), canoes, kayaks, or tubes and get ready to enjoy the day. There is so much fun to be had at Riverbend Retreat!

Excellent vacation

The family and I had a great stay at Riverbend. Plenty of room to spread out, excellent amenities, lots to do inside and outside (or to just sit and watch the birds, listen to the wind, and watch the river flow by.) Good fishing spots are easily accessible and launching the canoe and kayaks are easy (just make sure you have a plan to retrieve them downstream after your paddle). Great cabin!
