River Refuge on the South Fork

Welcome to our River Refuge on the South Fork!  If you are looking for a convenient, comfortable, kid friendly, quality home that you wouldn’t expect from a short term rental, you are in the right place. 

Less than three hours drive from Raleigh-Durham international airport you will find this wonderful three bedroom, 2,000 square-foot house.  Just a half mile walk from the south fork of the New River and Railroad Grade Road, you can walk or bike to your heart’s content without having to get in your car.  At just 20 minutes to either Boone or West Jefferson and situated on 4 acres of land, you’re close to all the action while feeling a million miles away. 

Relax under the vaulted ceilings in the magnificent great room while you have coffee, read, or enjoy a fire in the wood burning fireplace.  Down the hall is a second full living area, complete with 65 inch smart TV and extra deep sectional for curling up or stretching out. 500 MBPS Wi-Fi is available throughout the house and a desk with two external monitors plus a docking station for easy connectivity makes for easy remote work during an extended stay.

The kitchen comes with the things you wish more short term rentals have: sharp kitchen knives (our knife block has a built in sharpener), French press, drip coffee maker and an electric kettle, matching, clean pots & pans and cutlery - and even a few surprises like an electric waffle maker!

If you’re traveling with kids (or even if you aren’t!) the house is stocked with puzzles, games and kids books, along with loads of useful outdoor space.  With two queen bedrooms plus a third with bunkbeds, a daybed and a trundle (four twin mattresses total), the River Refuge on the South Fork is excellent for a family, pairs of families vacationing together, couples and more.
We hope you enjoy the high country!
