River Rock: stream side, 11 acres, hot tub, waterfall

** Update on Helene hurricane, River Rock cabin is not damaged and operational **

River Rock is a three bedroom, two bath cabin located in a private park-like setting on 11 beautiful acres of grassy meadows, waterfalls, and tranquil trout stream.
If you are looking for a secluded and private streamside retreat, you will not find a better location anywhere. Elk Creek, which is rated as one of the cleanest in all of North Carolina; runs right in front of this cabin. The sounds of the rushing stream can be heard throughout the property and the decks on River Rock overlook the stream and a gorgeous grassy meadow where deer and other wildlife frequently roam.
This mountain retreat offers privacy seclusion with easy access, but yet is convenient to area attractions as it is only 10 minutes off the Blue Ridge Parkway, 10 minutes to horseback riding at Leatherwood stables, 20 minutes to downtown Boone (great for ASU football weekends), 30 minutes to Blowing Rock (excellent dining and shopping) and 30-45 minutes to 4 different ski areas.
River Rock offers rustic comfort with a fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher and microwave, WIFI, satellite TV, washer & dryer, propane gas and electric heaters, and all the bed linens and towels to make your stay comfortable. There is also a gorgeous stone (river rock) fireplace in the living room that creates a very warm and cozy atmosphere. The cabin has its very own fire ring (great for family marshmallow roasts-please do not use inside fireplace:), as well as access to hiking trails which lead to a beautiful 20 ft waterfall. There is also a picnic table on the property where you can sit and relax to the sounds of the stream, or have lunch in the middle of the mountains!
The privacy of this property makes it ideal for anything from a quiet honeymoon or romantic weekend to a memorable family vacation.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cabin, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment.
Enjoy recreation amenities such as a hot tub or take in the view from a garden. This cabin also features an arcade/game room and barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

This was an absolutely wonderful little get-a-way for our family of 7. The kids LOVED the creek, the swing, the firepit for some smores and the hike to the waterfall. We all enjoyed the hot tub and corn hole and Foosball. The rooms were all clean and cozy with plenty of extra bedding, towels etc. My husband thoroughly enjoyed the comfy living room furniture/couch. The kitchen was fully stocked with supplies/appliances/utensils and the grill was a major bonus! This is the perfect spot if you want a place to escape. We enjoyed a quick trip to Blowing Rock and would love to check out the few other attractions in Boone next stay! Communication with John was great, he made sure we were settled and had everything we needed. 10/10 recommend!

20 year anniversary

My husband and I were looking for a relaxing getaway to celebrate 20 years of marriage. River Rocks was perfect for relaxing by the creek and going out to fun attractions and adventures. The house was extremely well stocked with essentials, all we needed was some food! The river was beyond beautiful and provided hours of relaxing/reconnecting time! The host was very available, but we didn't need a thing. We are excited to think about returning next year with the kids!!

Relaxing!

My family and I enjoyed a lovely long weekend at River Rock. We had three teenagers and two dogs and there was plenty of room for all. The cabin is cozy and has everything you might need. Kitchen is fully stocked. We loved the stream and exploring the property with our dogs. They may have loved it the most since it is such a treat for them to run off leash. The hike to the waterfall was a treat too. We came up for the weekend for spring football at The Rock and it was an easy but twisty drive into Boone. Thanks for sharing your place with us John and Kim!

Heaven on Earth

We absolutely LOVED our stay at the rental. Feom the beginning the owners were VERY accommodating, very communative, and super healpful. We and our 4 furrbabies had the time of our lives. They loved the water and the waterfall and the hikes... we loved watching them free roam and just explore the forest, living their lives as they should..without a care in the world. The house is VWRY wrll sticked, bedrooms of grest size, plenty of beds to sleep in. Fully stocked kitchen, bathrooms and laundry room. I can not say enough about how well these owners have done to make this feel like home away from home. Highly recommended

Amazing response to a catastrophic event

My wife and I and our two dogs and our two grown children planned a 10 day stay. The property is amazing. The locations and size was perfect for the dogs to run and for our overall relaxation. Unfortunately during our stay nature decided to pay us a visit with Hurricane Helena. John and Kim arrived on scene as soon as they could to check on us. They brought us much needed water. John quickly made repairs. Even though we had to camp it for a few days(outdoor grill is amazing) the overall experience was something we will never forget. Our hats go off to John and Kim for such a quick response to our situation.
