Description
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. Outside, guests can take a relaxing dip in the brand new hot tub or catch up on your reading while laying in the hammock. With a king ensuite, a queen bedroom, 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!

Additional Notes:
- Repeat guests returning to River Refuge can receive a 10% discount.
- All BRMR homes offer well stocked kitchens with all utensils needed to cook meals. There is also a "starter set" of paper products at the house: a roll of toilet paper per bath, a couple garbage bags, a small vial of dishwashing liquid, a few tablets of dishwasher detergent, some laundry pods, a roll of paper towels, hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and some makeup remover cloths. There are enough of these items for one night, or maybe two.
- Firewood may be purchased at the time of booking or with a week's notice. You receive two wrapped, kiln-dried bundles and a firestarter for $25 plus tax.
- Towels and linens will be provided for you.
- This property is pet friendly with a limit of 2 dogs. Dogs must be kept leashed due to the neighboring horse farm.
- AWD or 4WD vehicles are required during winter months. The main road leading to this home is paved and very easy to access!
