New River Haven Cabin w/ River View & Kayaks

Discover your own slice of paradise at New River Haven, a hidden gem nestled on the banks of the historic and enchanting New River. This isn't just a vacation rental; it's a portal to a world of natural splendor and cozy luxury. Included in your stay is 2 kayaks with life jackets in included. Kayaks are seasonal and open for use from May 1st to October 30th.

As you step into this private, cozy cabin, you're greeted by the soothing sounds of river shoals, a constant reminder of the breathtaking wilderness that surrounds you. Picture yourself casting a line into the glistening waters, where trout and smallmouth bass await, or perhaps catching a glimpse of a majestic bald eagle soaring overhead.

The cabin, a haven of functionality and comfort, comfortably accommodates up to 6 guests, offering a range of amenities that blend rustic charm with modern convenience. Explore the network of walking trails, where the beauty of the mountains, creek waterfalls, and the majestic New River unfolds before you. Embrace the tranquility and the vibrant wildlife that makes this place so special.

Stay connected while you're disconnected from the everyday hustle - thanks to the newly installed Starlink WiFi. Enjoy lightning-fast speeds perfect for streaming, working remotely, or staying in touch, all while nestled in nature's embrace.

The experience extends beyond the cabin. You'll have full access to a wealth of outdoor amenities, including a common area withe a fire pit and grill, hiking trails, and two kayaks for an unforgettable journey down the New River. The common area is shared with other lot owners. if there are lot owners there they do get first preference. However we let our guest know when they are going to be there if they let us know. They use the common area very little.

Inside, the cabin offers a fully stocked kitchen for those who love to cook, two full bathrooms with jetted jacuzzi tubs, and comfortable sleeping arrangements including a king-size bed and a high-quality air mattress. All necessities, from bed linens to hand soap, are provided for your utmost comfort. On the porch we have 2 girls. One charcoal and one gas (Guest supply their own charcoal and Coleman camping gas can).

Venture out to explore the charming towns of Galax and Independence, just a short drive away, brimming with unique restaurants and shops. Our guidebooks and guest book, filled with local highlights, will be your compass to these delightful Southwest Virginia towns.

Please note, the journey to this secluded haven is part of the adventure. The cabin, located within a community, promises privacy and minimal interaction with others. However, our friendly neighbors might just offer a warm "hello" if you cross paths.

Remember to read the detailed directions provided after booking, as GPS can be unreliable in this idyllic, rural setting. And for those seeking to explore the river, remember to wear a life jacket – safety and fun go hand in hand here!

At New River Haven, it's not just about the destination. It's about the memories you'll create, the peace you'll find, and the adventures that await. Book now and step into a world where nature's beauty and modern comfort coexist in perfect harmony. Thank you, and welcome to your riverfront retreat!

Looking for beauty and seclusion? You found it!
This cabin is exactly as described. Beautiful river view in a very secluded setting. If you are a fisherman or just want to get away from it all, this place is for you. I am a stickler for cleanliness and the cabin met my expectations. For your visit, be sure to get food supplies before arriving, as it is about 20-25 min into Galax. But you will find a well equipped kitchen and nice grilling/campfire area next to the river.

Beautiful River Cabin
New River Haven is exactly as advertised - a beautiful and extremely well appointed cabin perfect for getting away from it all. Our goal was relaxation and space away from others and we got just that! A few things worth noting: the WiFi is Starlink and was not working when we first arrived, though the network appeared available. We determined that the satellite unit had likely been tucked under the deck during lawn maintenance. Once set back out in the yard, it worked like a dream! The cabin is remote. While this is what we were after, it’s important to note that while you are not far from “civilization”, it’s going to take you 15 mins or so to get out of the woods to begin your journey. In terms of things to do (parks and restaurants, etc) there are plenty of options, but the trip will be a minimum of 35-45 mins. Water and common area access might test your level of fitness. It’s beautiful and perfect for fishing, but getting to the water can be tricky between damp grass and ground stability. There are no steps, so you need to be nimble to get down and flexible to climb back up. The trip to and from the common area involves a hill with serious grade. Care must be taken in navigating both directions, but the incline is constant and steep! Aside from a suggestion to add stairs from the cabin level to the lower road and from the road to the common area, the only thing this was missing from perfection was a hot tub. Just a beautiful spot, overall, and quite luxurious!

Just what we wanted
This gem was perfect! It was the only house on that road at the end. Close enough to water to appreciate it and also far enough it wasn’t loud at all(some riverside cabins are really noisy). Property was in great shape and very clean. Everything was as it was described or better. Would definitely stay here again.

Gorgeous Log/Timber Cabin
We had a lovely three night stay at this modern cabin. Found the cabin spotlessly clean and appropriately equipped. As noted the cabin is located down the end of a 3 mile gravel and dirt road. No problem for 4 wheel or AWD vehicle with good clearance. River was peaceful and lovely. Lots of deer, birds and even a turtle. Some traffic noise from the road across the river during the morning and evening drive times. Otherwise peaceful. Convenient to Galax, New River bike trail, and the BRP Music Center.
