Riverwood at Mill Ridge was the PERFECT property for our group of 10. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out and to also gather together for games and movies. Game room was awesome and the location was unbeatable. Within 15 to 20 minutes of Banner Elk, Boone and Blowing Rock!! Would definitely stay here again if returning to the area with a large group.

Most completely supplied STR we have ever had. Customer service response beyond expectations. Great place for kids of any age. Game room and lounge area upstairs a great hangout place for kids. There was even baby and animal equipment for care and feeding. Great hosts, even though it was a management company.

Absolutely wonderful weekend at this home… Had family either sleepover or just come for the day. Everything worked out beautifully. Accommodations were terrific as well as the backyard view… Very peaceful. Wish we had more time there.
