The River House B&B is the perfect place to stay if wanting a relaxing vacation. Nestled on the Broad River with views of Chimney Rock and wonderfully named rooms. My wife Candace and I stayed in the "River Runs Through It" room and had the most restful nights sleep. Rondi is the most welcoming host anyone could ask for. Ready... More

We stayed in the Dirty Dancing Room and that was the best night's sleep I've had in a long time. Cannot wait to book our... More

My husband and I have stayed in a lot of B&B's over the years, and we both give this place an excellent rating! We stumbled onto it while on a mountain road trip and are truly glad we found it! Any inn can be lovely, but the vest best ones include outstanding service - which Rondi provided at every turn.... More

Lauren actually asked if she could cook one morning and so she was our celebrity guest chef from the River Top Room. Breakfast was an amazing french toast recipe that has been passed down in her family. She... More

This B & B was wonderful! I have worked in the hotel industry for eight years and understand the importance of good customer service and a clean atmosphere. The basics were met, however, I felt much more is provided here.....genuine care, welcoming atmosphere, beautiful setting, and owners/manager that truly care about the enjoyment of your stay.
