Another fantastic stay at Riverwatch. This spot has become my go-to for long weekend getaways with my favorite people. Enjoying great meals from a fully stocked kitchen. Lounging, fishing, or paddling around in the river. Winding down by the fire at night. It doesn’t get better.

Peaceful and Relaxing

We loved being right on the water and the quiet and peaceful area. We kayaked near by which was a highlight. The kids love the ice cream at cool springs park right up the road. We plan to come every year!

Good time

The house has everything you need and then some. We enjoyed floating the river. We had 2 vehicles and our own tubes. Start at the bridge and float to the house or start at the house and float to the park. Either way you’ll have a blast. Then enjoy a bonfire and roast some marshmallows.

Great getaway, every time.

Clean, cozy river house. Stayed here several times and it’s better each time. We got surprised by the Northern Lights and a meteor shower this trip. Fantastic. Good fishing, great relaxation. Highly recommend.

Mid December Stay

A group of us came down to WV to go hunting and we stayed at the River Watch during our trip. One of the best things about the house was the large open basement to keep all of our gear. It made it nice to not have to worry if we were going to get the upstairs dirty while also saving a lot of space upstairs. The house was great and the location worked well for us.

Peaceful, cozy home away from home on the River

We couldn’t of asked for a cozier home on our holiday getaway. The home was very clean, well stocked, and in order. I love the set up and beautiful river views and will be booking here again. So happy we got to wake up to snow. My sons did a little fishing but the river was a bit high due to melting snow. Conveniently There are small stores within 15 mins. Highly recommend for couples or family getaways. Wish we could of stayed longer :)

Great weekend get-a-way

The home has amazing views right on the river and is extremely peaceful. It’s a great retreat away from everyday busy life. This is our third year in a row staying at this property and will continue to make it an annual event. I had to contact the host during our stay and he got back to me immediately and even contacted the next door neighbor to check local conditions for us.
