    3 mornings and 3 quite different sunrises. There is something quite powerful, yet relaxing, waking up to the view of early morning mists blanketing the river valley below and the sun rising over a mountain filled backdrop. Add a cup of "The Riverbend Inn" coffee while watching the mist pull back only to be replaced by views of the New River (spectacular) and the beginnings of fall foliage. All this followed by an excellent breakfast and a wonderful staff. What a way to decompress after a long flight with many delays and a very late arrival. We immediately felt at home and had a marvelous weekend enjoying the many activities the area had to WOW us.

    Wonderful!

    Everything about The Inn at Riverbend--from the breathtaking views to the great breakfasts--is absolutely wonderful. Linda, Lynn and Eric are perfect hosts and Jackson and Reeses add to the warmth and all around feel good atmosphere that made our four night stay an incredibly enjoyable and relaxing experience. This is a modern home with open space and has been built to maximize the views that have to be seen in person to be truly appreciated. There's a lot to do in the area and Linda, Lynn and Eric go above and beyond with their recommendations and helpful hints. Their knowledge about and love for the area was immediately apparent to us and their recommendations for restaurants, hiking spots, and our kayak trip were right on the ball. The whistle from the trains on the tracks alongside the New River where not at all disturbing but rather a pleasant addition to the overall experience. We've already highly recommended the Inn to many of our friends and family members and will definitely return. Congrats to the Hokies and Gators and to anyone lucky enough to experience the Inn! Cheryl and Scott Gordon
