About this property

The River House Close to Everything


* We are activally cleaning and sanitizing this rental with extra sanitation methods with each stay.

The River House is an adorable place to stay right on the Roanoke River and Roanoke Green Way. Rent bikes 500 feet from the house, walk to downtown, float the river with tubes, kayaks, paddle boards, or canoe rentals available! So much to do in Roanoke and you are in the heart of it!

A 100 foot high star atop a mountain and visible from miles around welcomes you to the "Star City of the South," a great beginning for your weekend getaway to this city rich in culture, history, fun, and entertainment. Close to the star is the Mill Mountain Zoo, where you'll see the endangered Snow Leopard, Amur Tiger and Red Wolf, along with 40-plus other animal species. The Center in the Square is the city's cultural hub, where you can catch a Broadway-quality show at the Mill Mountain Theater or hear the celebrated Roanoke Symphony. Museums are everywhere, and whether your interest lies in art, history, science or transportation, you'll find a museum to match it.

Virginia’s Blue Ridge is home to an impressive collection of locally-produced craft beer, wine, and spirits. Our setting in the Blue Ridge Mountains makes it an ideal location for growing grapes, as well as producing outstanding craft beer with the rich water sources in streams and rivers that flow through the mountains.

There's something to keep you occupied and entertained every minute in this environmentally-conscious, friendly and very welcoming Virginia city.

Comfortable, convenient
The home was comfortable for the 4 of us in town for a girls' trip. We had some problems (a water leak in the basement ceiling, front door lock not working), but the property owner was quick to respond and troubleshoot. The basement bedroom area is not a bedroom; it's one half of the downstairs rec room. The downstairs bathroom was not in good condition. Street parking is plentiful and we felt safe in the neighborhood. The river is not visible from the property.
