Nice getaway
This was a nice place for what we needed it for, a place to sleep while in town for a wedding. Unfortunately the location “pin” on the map show is not correct. When we booked it, it is pinned off willow lane which is where many of our friends live, which is why we chose it. This cabin is in fact across the river and about a 8-10 minute drive away from where our friends were. This was the entire reason we chose this cabin and we didn’t realize until we arrived that the location wasn’t where it said it was. That just needs to be corrected. Otherwise, all else was fine.

Perfect spot for Sparta wedding
This cottage was close to what we needed - grocery, restaurants, wedding venue, and even a cute little brewery! Our kids loved exploring the property - the cottage itself and the stream and trails around. The manager promptly responded to our noticing a nest on the property after one of our children got stung - we were very impressed! The only negative was finding a pair of woman’s underwear tucked in the couch cushions.

Cute cozy quiet cabin
We enjoyed our stay in Rivers Edge. Just what we needed! Quiet and remote, yet just 10 minutes from the cutest downtown.
The interior was clean, comfortable, and as listed. The cabin is beautifully furnished with nice antiques. The propane fireplace was excellent and could warm nearly the entire house. We had a windy night the first night and it knocked out the WiFi/ internet connection for most of the weekend. The owner was very nice and immediately responsive. She tried to get the internet company to fix the connectivity issues but they weren't able to send anyone out while we were there.
The 2 downstairs bedrooms are small but adequate and are independently temperature controlled which was nice. But flooring in loft made them not as private as you might expect.
The bathrooms were clean and fully functional. The kitchen was clean and small but well equipped with everything you need to cook.
Outside the rippling river made a soothing sound. The leaves were beautiful this time of year so we had a kaleidoscope of color as we walked the surrounding trails.
The driveway was a bit tricky as the last 75 ft are not paved, so just drive slowly.

Lovely cabin
My family had an excellent time in sparta. This cabin is in a great location of Sparta. Very private and the creek by the house was very peaceful listening to from the porch. Some small walking trails on the property too. We had everything we needed in this cabin. Would definitely stay here again.

Short vacation
We wanted to get away for some rest and relaxation. This was accomplished! We fished, played in the river, enjoyed watching the deer, and explored. Our fur baby also had a great time! He especially loved all the sights and sounds nature had to offer. We had an amazing time! We will hopefully return soon. Host, Susan was great!

Secluded cabin right at the river.
The spot where the cabin is at is perfect. Right by the river, easy acess to fishing/swimming/tubing. There is a big covered porch on one side where you can sit out and just listen to the water. Plenty of parking for at least 4 cars. Town is only about 5 minutes away as well.
Here are some cons about the place as no place is perfect. The cabin is a bit dated. There is no central A/C. There is two window units and ceiling fans to help. But that leaves the top floor and a bedroom without A/C. The cabin is on the smaller side so a big group, say 6+, would find it a bit cramped. Fishing at this particular spot of the river is a bit harder as this spot is a popular spot and may be fished out already. And the road to get to the cabin has a big pot hole on it which will be difficult if your vehicle is lower.
Overall a great spot and I would definitely rent again. Maybe just add another window unit to the other bedroom for hotter days

Nice but
The location was very nice. Sitting on the river made it very convenient and enjoyable. As another review stated, the house needs to be updated with central air. In the late afternoon the heat of the day made it a little muggy inside even with the windows up. Of course by early morning things cooled down. There were a number of dead trees on the property that needed to be taken down. We had to wait about 20 minutes or so for the realtor to get back to the office to take us to the place. Normally not a big deal, but my wife was sick. But overall it was a pleasant experience.

We will be back!
We were in Sparta to attend the Blue Ridge Fiber Festival...which was an awesome event...in an awesome little town. Everyone was so friendly and kind. The cabin was the icing. There was a bit of hiking and fishing and the sound of the rain on the roof...so relaxing. From the porch you can see and hear the river. So thankful to have found such a beautiful place.

2nd time
This was our 2nd time staying at this cabin and it was just as good as the 1st. The location is fantastic. The river is on 3 sides of the cabin. Walk out the door and start fishing. The town of Sparta is just a short distance away, so it is easy to run into town for supplies. Susan, the owner, is great to work with. We highly recommend this rental.

Idylic setting
This cabin sits in the middle of a wooded park with the Little River right outside the door! It's the perfect place to get away from it all. Cabin is comfortable. We used it as our base to drive around the area and enjoy the beauty of nature. Blue Ridge parkway is nearby with attractions in both directions.
Susan is an ideal host and responsive to any problems. Hope to stay there again.

Perfect setting!
If you are looking for a peaceful setting and love nature, this is the place for you. Not a lot of frills, just your basic comforts for sitting out by the fire and listening to the river. From inside you can still commune with nature and watch the trees and stars from the wonderful high windows. Would not be really good for six adults (not enough seating) but great for four. We hope to go back again and again!

Great fishing location
This review is a bit late as we stayed there in April. The location was fantastic. The cabin is remote without being remote. If you are looking for a cabin on the river, you can't find a better spot. The cabin is surrounded by the river on 3 sides. We caught brown, rainbow and brook trout. We definitely recommend this rental and look forward to renting it again. Susan is very helpful and a great host.
