It is ideal for city-lovers who thrive in the outdoors (think beach vacay with SUPs, cycling, and outdoor play but in the mountains). Situated on almost 1 acre, you can gaze at the river from both the back or bedroom decks. This cottage is tastefully furnished with a full kitchen and lots of room to dry out your personal gear. Great for people who live by the work hard play hard then relax philosophy. Nearby atttractions include: Dupont Forest, Blue Ridge Parkway, Bent Creek, restaurants, craft breweries, downtown scenes in multiple directions that boast live music venues, and the unique opportunity to watch people float down FBR from the comfort of the covered deck. ## Property amenities ### Internet -
