Riverfront dream!

Such a great experience for a small family. We have a 5 year old son and having a separate room directly down the hall with his own bathroom was perfect! The view of the river from almost every room in the house was magical. The house was extremely clean and well maintained. I don’t have one bad thing to say about the house only positives!

Lovely Mountain Home

House was great and had all the amenities you need for a short stay. Location is great- close to downtown Banner Elk, Sugar Mountain, Hawksnest and Mast General Store. River out back was lovely to watch and even with snow on the ground it was easy to walk down to the edge of it. Communication with host was prompt and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful home by the river

The property was a lovely get-a-way by the Watauga River. The driveway was a little tricky, but the rest of the home was perfect. Clean and beautifully decorated. Info on all equipment was easily understood. We hope to stay there again.

Beautiful escape at Riverplace

This was our third time back at Riverplace and we will continue to return because it’s the perfect spot for us. Accommodations are ideal for a family looking to enjoy the outdoors in the backyard as well as traveling to neighboring towns. Valle Crucis has so much to offer, but Riverplace is just 15 minutes to Boone, Banner Elk and Blowing Rock. Thank you Tamara for being a great host!

Mountain getaway

The house was awesome, very clean with a location and view that were incredible. We enjoyed our stay and have already booked it again in November. The owner was great to work with and really helped us out when Hurricane Florence almost ruined our travel plans.
