Thank you! Riverbank Retreat is 5 star all around. The house was so nice and comfortable and spacious! It was super clean and offered everything we could ask for. It was a getaway weekend for just the two of us but the house would be perfect for a couples gathering. The backyard with fire pit overlooking the New River was so beautiful and relaxing. We will definitely visit again. Highly recommend Riverbank Retreat with BRMR.

Overall, we were happy with the property. Some suggestions/feedback: the TV was hard to navigate. The men could not figure out how to get the football games on. Instructions would be helpful. For the best of our knowledge, the downstairs TV isn't hooked up to anything. The basement has a spider problem. Many were stepped on. I didn't find a broom to sweep them up, but also wanted them to be evident so proper action can be taken. Bedrooms are all a great size- upstairs bedrooms could use a comfortable chair to sit on.

This was the cleanest house we've ever stayed in. And it met everything on our checklist - from great hot tub to comfortable king size beds, from river front/place to fish &raft & play, from fire pit to awesome porch. Also a big game room, space for kids to play, read a book, &/or nap! Big screen had the ballgames, video games & pool table in the basement! We've already reserved it for next year!!

Great customer service! Amazing house! So very clean! Comfy king size beds, plenty of space inside & outside! Right on the river - great fishing, rafting, & playing. S'mores down at the fire pit. Loved the porch for games, kids playing, & napping! Hot tub was great! Easy access & plenty of parking. We loved it! Took a family vote - all 11 in favor of doing it all again next year!
