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.

This is our third stay at River Rock over the past several years, and it was as incredible as ever! The house has everything you need, the beds are very comfortable, and the creek is so peaceful to sit by and walk along.

Our family very much enjoyed our stay! The cabin is adorable and the property is amazing!! We loved hanging out by the beautiful river and just relaxing. We drove around 30 minutes to go tubing one day and to ‘Trash Can Falls’ for the kids to jump off boulders into a swimming hole another day. Otherwise, just had fun hiking around the property and cooling off in the water. Will definitely be back!!

The home is absolutely beautiful. Clean. Beds were so cozy! Everything you need in kitchen is available. The river and property are the BEST part! We had our meals and coffee on the front deck overlooking the river. Our kids spent all day playing outside. We love this area and this is definitely one of our favorite properties here. The host is exceptional! Great communication. Very hospitable. Couldn't have asked for a better experience and relaxing get away! You can tell why this property stays booked. Top knotch!

We enjoyed our stay at River Rock! There was always a place to sit and reflect, play games, watch TV or read. There were many games and movies available for our use. We enjoyed the hot tub, playing in the river, and sitting on the deck. Pro tip: bring beach chairs to lounge in the river if it is low enough. There was an issue out of the hosts control as can happen with any home, but everything was handled quickly and efficiently. The host was very responsive. It was so nice to be able to vacation with our pups. We would love to return to RiverRock someday!
