3 Month Availability Snapshot for this Vacation Rental
"Dear Becky, Just wanted to let you know how wonderful our week was at the cottage. None of us had ever stayed in a more restful, serene environment. The cottage is so lovingly maintained that we felt totally pampered. Your thoughtful touches to provide for yours guests' comfort is so evident in everything from the wonderfully stocked kitchen to the soft bed linens. There was nothing that we didn't love, and think that you are very trusting to allow stangers to share in this delightful place. We had wonderful visits to the river, Roaring Creek waterfall and the park down on Route 80. We had great meals at Albert's and the country club as well as at Mt. Mitchell and Little Switzerland. Whenever I learn of someone wanting to visit the mountains, I will tell them about Rivermont; it was truly all that I had hoped for and more. Thanks again for sharing this treasure with us. "
