At River Rendezvous, you'll live like royalty on the riverfront. Set on the North Fork of the historic New River, it's steps from tubing, kayaking, and fishing. Outdoorsy types will thrive, while luxury lovers lounge in the hot tub, game room, or speakeasy-style bar. Bring the whole crew to make unforgettable memories (and cocktails).
--------------------------------------------
Indoor Spaces
- Sleeping arrangements: Bring up to 12 guests. The main level primary suite features a king bed, en suite bathroom, and deck access. You'll find two more suite-style bedrooms with king beds and bathrooms on the upper level. Head down to the lower level for the fourth bedroom with one queen bunk bed and one twin bunk bed.
- Main level: Get cozy in front of the floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace (complete with a mounted TV), or watch the river from expansive windows that bring in plenty of natural light. The kitchen is a well-stocked chef's dream with ample seating.
- Upper level: Upstairs is all about beauty sleep. Two oversized bedrooms with walk-in showers, reading nooks, and TVs reside on the upper level.
- Lower level: Play on! Test your skills at ping pong and basketball in the game room, or sit down at the vintage arcade table to play classics like Space Invaders and Donkey Kong. Relax and lounge at the comfortable speakeasy bar and seating area, which includes a mounted flatscreen TV (that's right, you can watch the game).
- River Rendezvous comes with WiFi, AC, and streaming services.
- All Stay Blue Ridge vacation rentals include a complimentary starter pack with soaps, one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, a roll of paper towels in the kitchen, dishwasher pods, and trash bags.
--------------------------------------------
Outdoor Spaces
- Step onto the covered upper patio oasis. Ceiling fan, grill, and TV included. Stay cool while you kick back, cook, or catch the game outside.
- Head to the lower patio to soak in the hot tub and enjoy views of the river.
- A spacious yard offers ample room for kids, pets, and playful adults to roam.
- You're located in a gated community with private river access (avoid the crowds!).
- Easily drop in upstream for a tubing or kayaking adventure. All you have to do is float on back to the rental at the pace that suits you.
--------------------------------------------
Local Surroundings
- Right at your doorstep is the North Fork of the New River. Bring your own tubes and boats and go for a float, or venture out to one of the nearby canoe outfitters, like Riverside Canoe and Tube Rentals.
- Less than a 10-minute drive is the town of Lansing, but don't let its small size fool you. Lansing is packed to the brim with fun experiences to get you acquainted with the local culture and population. Stop by Molley Chomper Hard Cider to get a fruity taste of Appalachian ciders and wines. Catch one of the many events or arts and crafts classes at Lost Province Center for Cultural Arts, located in the historic Lansing School. In the mood for a scrumptious sandwich? Make sure to check out The Liar's Bench to fill up on sammies before heading out to explore the Historic Lansing Creeper Trail Park.
- Downtown West Jefferson is also within a 20-minute drive of River Rendezvous and is the beating heart of Ashe County. Whether you want coffee, a brewery, casual dining, art galleries, or antiques, downtown WJ is the place to be.
--------------------------------------------
Important Notes
- Pet Policy: Dogs welcome! Up to two 45lb dogs allowed. Must be two years or older and leash/crate trained. $50 per pet, nonrefundable.
- Access: Plenty of gravel parking for the whole crew. Located off main roads and in a well-maintained gated community. 4WD and AWD recommended in the winter.
