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

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.

Wonderful Property and Vacation!
This was our first time visiting the mountains of NC and with it there were a lot of firsts. We walked across a swinging bridge on Grandfather mountain, we went fishing for the first at Grandfather trout farm ( no need for Fishing license there), first time endlessly enjoying a beautiful creek. This house is in a beautiful location and we throughly enjoyed our stay. The house is well stocked and very homey. The pathway to the water falls is not to be missed. You may need a walking stick for the slightly steeper portions of the walk. We really enjoyed the Wild Craft eatery restaurant in Boone and the Peddaling Pig restaurant. We would definitely come back. Thank you for a great vacation.

Awesome property
We had a short trip, stayed 2 nights & 1 day. Unfortunately, it rained the whole time. We did manage to enjoy the creek during the brief moments that it stopped raining. We absolutely love the property. The cabin could be cleaner and could use some updates-replace burned out light bulbs, stained bedding, carpet. That being said, we hope to go back again with our Son and his family.

Beautiful scenery, and beautiful cabin. I would recommend if you want to stay by yourself. Natural walk to the waterfall, and creek. Hot tub is always a plus just would recommend some more lighting around it. I will be back for sure!

Great mountain retreat
Our family met in Boone to celebrate my wife's birthday. Wonderful place, great amenities and beautiful setting. Enjoyed the mountain stream, hiking in the woods, soaking in the hot tub, and relaxing in this great environment. The kitchen had everything you needed and there were plenty of recreational games/activities. Many of the spring wildflowers were blooming, especially the trilliums.

Peace and quiet
This property is all it is described to be and then some. We enjoyed every bit of the outdoors from hiking to the top of the waterfall to tubing down the creek. Each night a bonfire brought us together to reflect on the day. Very cozy home with hundreds of movies to entertain the kids before bed. Kim and John were responsive to questions and ideas. Highly recommend!

Great Spot to Relax
Initially, we had plans to explore towns in the area (Blowing Rock and Boone). However, once we arrived at River Rock, we never left. The home is cozy, clean, and has everything you need for a relaxing vacation. We loved having coffee in the morning, and lunch in the afternoon, on the large deck while listening to the creek. We enjoyed our evening hot tub. But the property was the highlight of our vacation. There is a lot to explore without having to drive anywhere. We loved the creeks and hiking to the waterfalls. We wanted to get away from everything and relax in seclusion. River Rock delivered.

Great Secluded Vacation Spot
We thoroughly enjoyed our relaxing stay at River Rock. The house is cozy and the hot tub is an added bonus. Only issue was the house cleaner got our dates mixed up and showed up the morning after we checked in to clean from the previous guests. Luckily it wasn’t a mess and we just had to make up the one bed we stayed in.

We liked the location because it was close to horseback riding and not too far from Boone. We enjoyed the creek and the hiking trail. We lit the bonfire a couple of nights and the kids loved that. It was comfortable sleeping for everyone. Nice get away.

This was the perfect place for our two families to get away! The property had so much outdoor space for us to explore. We enjoyed skipping rocks in the creek and hiking up to the waterfall.

Perfectly serene stay!!
The home is spacious and just perfect! I love it when a host has spices and seasonings for cooking in the home!! The tranquility at this location is just perfect! I loved just sitting outside and listening to the creek. We hiked up to the waterfall which was not far. We loved the hot tub in the evening with a glass of wine. Plenty of room for everyone!! The downstairs area is great for kids or adults who need a really raucous game of fooze-ball! We loved our stay and would definitely come back. !

Unbelievable creek and outside grounds
I have two separate reviews for this property. The outside area on the creek was just stunning. Nicer then the pictures on vrbo. My dogs were in heaven. We just loved the outside area and would rate it 10. However the inside cabin and deck area and patio furniture was dirty. The deck was 90 percent covered in black mildew the patio furniture covered in green algae. It was awful. The carpet was filthy with black stains all over,which I cleaned with carpet clean. Dust everywhere shelves ceiling fans. The place needs a lot of maintenance and heavy cleaning. My friend fixed the sliding glass doors which we couldn’t open. I did inform the owner upon arrival. He seems nice but truthfully the place needs alot if work. So if your neat freak this is not your place. I recommend for kids snd dogs. Not couples without kids. It’s sad because the outside was hands down the nicest property we have ever rented. But inside just the opposite. The made did her job as bathroom kitchen and showers were clean. This needs maintenance and pressure cleaning. I took pics. But don’t know how to Post. So outside by creek we give a ten. Inside cabin a two
