Roxy's Riverfront Playhouse on the New River - Fire Pit

Roxy's Riverfront Playhouse on the New River
​​​​​​​
• Riverfront on the South Fork of the New River
• Kayak, canoe, tube & fish from your yard
• Huge Yard for Volleyball & Badminton
• Wrap-Around Porches: Rocking Chairs, Adirondacks, Swings & Dining Tables
• A/CTV/DVD/Wii, WiFi, W/D, DVD (movies for all ages)
• Ping Pong, Darts, Puzzle Table, Charcoal Grill & FIRE PIT
• Exclusive neighborhood
• Dog Friendly - see policy below

Wind your way beside the New River on a secluded gravel road through an exclusive neighborhood to your riverfront getaway at Roxy's Playhouse. Wrap-around porches above and a spacious patio below outfitted with rocking chairs, swings and dining tables are the perfect setting for year-round relaxation after activity-filled days in NC High Country. Grab your favorite beverage and settle in to watch the water glide by while you enjoy sounds of nature and views of the New River State Park across the river.

Roxy's is a 2-bedroom home with sleeping space for eight yet cozy enough for two. The master offers a Queen bed: wake up to views and sounds of the river outside your window! The second bedroom has a full bed and twin bunk, a TV/DVD/Wii player, with a wide selection of movies for all ages. The bedrooms share a full bath.

Also on the main floor is a bright open-plan living room and kitchen from which the chefs can see the river through French doors opening to a spacious deck for lounging and dining al fresco. The well-appointed kitchen features ample counter space for food prep and a large island that seats 5 for dining. The living room has two comfy sofas (one of which is a queen sleeper) and a smart TV with a generous cable offering. High speed internet and WIFI is available on the entire property.

Head downstairs to a large playroom with ping pong, darts, puzzle table and a convenient half bath with washer and dryer. Open the garage doors at either end and let the mountain breezes in while you engage in friendly round-robin competition!

Then grab a plush beach towel and head outside to an expansive yard for volleyball and badminton; or play spectator and bask in the sun on one of the colorful Adirondack chairs. Direct river access at the lawn's edge means you have all day to swim, soak, or fish. Cast your line and reel in tonight's dinner; fire up the charcoal and grill your catch! Late night toast some marshmallows and enjoy gooey s'mores with your loved ones around the fire pit. Speaking of, don't forget Fido! We are pet friendly.

Cabin on New River
Beautiful location directly on New River. Cabin was well appointed but there was a slow leak at the base of the upstairs toilet. Not sure if the seal needs replacing or the toilet just needs to be tightened up a bit. Also, the seat needs to be replaced or tightened up. I would also recommend replacing the charcoal grill. One of the wheels is broken and wants to fall off when moving the grill. Other than that we enjoyed our stay.

Clean cottage... watch riverbank
The property inside was very nice and clean. The up keep outside was a bit unkept. Very tall weeds around front entrance and deck area. Very, very high grass at riverbank, it made fishing or swimming virtually impossible. I know things happen & problems arise... also washer and dryer was not available. It was being replaced and could not be hooked up at time we were there.. Overall I would rate a 6 on (1-10) scale. Mostly due to outside upkeep.. Thanks

Great time on the river
Awsome place. Quiet and relaxing. Clean. Tall weeds in front of the house looked a little bad but maybe it keeps the bank from washing out. House is decorated nice inside and large deck has a nice view.

Bad experience
We rented the house for a week at the end of August. The pictures showed a sandy beach area with easy river access, which it stated. When we arrived access was not as pictured or stated, but actually a 4 foot drop into mud at the opposite end of property. The house ended up being dirty, the air intake was discussing and probably never cleaned, the TV didn’t work, which they did send someone out the next day to fix. The outside tablecloth had mold growing on it. We did a small load of wash and when we went to dry it there was no heat in dryer, so we ended up with a load of wet clothes. We ended up leaving 2 days early as we were not happy with site. We requested a partial refund but were denied. Overall we would not recommend staying here. Jim C

Quiet Riverfront Stay
Comments from previous reviewers were helpful in setting expectations, but for us, none of the concerns noted by others detracted from our stay. The house was clean, comfortable, and well stocked. We enjoyed being off the beaten path while also being in a quiet community right on the river. We would stay again.
