Retriever Beach on the New River in West Jefferson $1,410.00 - $1,800.00 per week

"Wonderful"

"This was our favorite location to date on the New River. The water was so relaxing to listen to, and we had tons of privacy! Kayaking here was especially peaceful, and we saw wildlife every time we went on the water. The shoreline is the best we've found for putting in with a kayak as well.
Pictures do not do this property full justice. It is much roomier than you think and everything inside is in terrific condition. Be sure to follow the driving directions from the rental company. One of our folks followed their GPS and had a rougher entry to the property than we did. We definitely plan to book this property again. It's fantastic!! "

"This is a really nice house in a great location. I don't think the pictures do justice to how nice of a house and location it is. We loved the yard and made fires in the fire pit everyday. We tubed and canoed down the new river and ended up right at our front yard. There is a little beach on the river which was perfect for kids to play in. The dog with us loved exploring the area. The house itself is really nice and high quality inside. Kitchen is new and well stocked, rooms are very nice and plenty of space. The house seemed to be very new and clean.
The property management company did a pretty good job and fixed a couple of issues we found when we arrived. There was a problem with the outdoor shower which was not fixed by the time we left but they had apparently tried to get a plumber out to fix it.
A few other notes:
- The canoes / kayaks are not included in the rental due to liability concerns from the rental company, so you'll have to bring your own or rent them.
- There were 4 tubes at the house which we used on the river. We had to inflate some of them before using them.
- The house does have cornhole and several board games.
- There are several collapsible outdoor chairs which to use in the yard included with the house.

"Exceeded our expectations inside and out. Everything was included. The deck, view, and river were so relaxing. Mid-May had perfect weather, but maybe a little too early for trout."

"We all had a wonderful time, met all our expectations. A very beautiful house and location!"

"Great clean home!"

"Excellent location on the river and wonderful property. We will definitely plan to stay here again."

"So glad we choose this property, it is a beautiful, clean and relaxing place. The house is well stocked, they had everything we could have needed. You can sit by several indoor/outdoor fire pits. Sitting by the river sounds was so relaxing. If you have children they will love this place as well. Looking forward to coming back in the summer. The rental agent I worked with was wonderful lady! Thank you for sharing your property for those looking to escape the city.

"My family and I could not have enjoyed our stay more. Everything in the home was extremely clean and the location on the river was great! We plan to return soon."

"Went with my adult sons and 4 grandchildren. Plenty of room. Great location. Kids enjoyed easy access to river, yard to play in, amenities. Kitchen fully stocked so did not need to go anywhere else to eat. Utilized gas fire pit and fireplace, charcoal grill and outdoor fire pit. House nicely furnished with everything you need including river towels."

"Retriever Beach is a fantastic rental, easy walk to the New River, well appointed house. Very clean, had almost everything we needed, even perfect weather. 4 Adults and 2 teens and we had plenty of room to spread out and relax. The deck is awesome, my favorite was sitting there reading while listening to the New River go by. A great place to get away from it all!"

Thank you for the wonderful review. Retriever Beach is quickly becoming a top vacation rental destination!

"Our week at Retriever Beach was spectacular! From the time we walked in the front door, we felt like we were staying in someone's personal home. Very comfortable, inviting and had everything we could ask for. Lots of room for us to spread out and great common areas for us to come together. The covered deck was our favorite place to hang out and play family games. And spending the days in the river were the best! We will be back. "
