Beautiful, peaceful property - close to conveniences
Our staff went here for an offsite and enjoyed the house and everything about it. The house was gorgeous, well laid out, and well stocked with basics and beyond. The weather was great, so we enjoyed time out on the deck and down by the river. It was a great space for a group to spend time together, with plenty of areas to spread out when we wanted some time apart. We loved the remote feeling, while still being close to town for food, fun, and the greenway.
The place was beautiful, comfortable, and well-equipped, and the host was quick to respond and very helpful. It's a perfect place for a family get-together.

Sibling Reunion
This lovely place met all our expectations and then some. As the person who made the choice and booked it, I was happy to hear everyone saying "Great Pick!" Outside was beautiful, we felt secluded but town was only a few minutes away. Inside was total comfort. We actually spent more time sitting around catching up than we did taking advantage of the many games downstairs. We had one 12 year old in the pool (yikes!) and then the hot tub, perfect. My two little dogs also enjoyed poking around by the river and impressing my siblings with how cute they were. We hope to do it again next year!

Great Riverside Memories
We had a wonderful family stay at Riverside Memories in Mount Airy. The property is terrific and well-kitted out and Beata is very attentive and lovely. Very well located to attractions in the lovely Blue Ridge area.
This house was absolutely perfect for us! We met our three adult kids and their families here and there was something for everyone to do, including the toddler! We had a fire out back, played disc-golf, used the hot tub, and enjoyed the deck. My daughter really appreciated the loft with all of the toys- it kept our granddaughter happy! The house was expansive and easily had enough room for all of nine of us plus two dogs. Mt. Airy is a nice town and we had fun checking everything out on Main Street. The host was communicative and helpful.We are looking forward to staying again! Thank you!
This place was not only well equipped the quality was there too. There was something for everyone, we all had a great time and are planning on making it our annual reunion spot
We loved the river behind the home, its one of the prettiest rivers and so much fun to play in and climb on the big rocks. The grandchildren loved the upstairs playroom and the outside playground with climbing wall, slide & swings!!! The adults loved the large rooms & indoor and outdoor games. It was so well located to walking trails, parks and downtown. This place was amazing. The owner is immediate with communications .
We brought a group of individuals with disabilities from Northern Kentucky to visit the hometown of Andy Griffith and the house was awesome. Everyone had a great time.

Perfect place for a large family
Can't say enough about this property. We have big and small kids, as well as us grandparents/parents and it was perfect for everyone.
Close enough to town for convenience (highly recommend the Lowes about 5 minutes away) but far enough away to be peaceful. We enjoyed sitting on the back deck, the kids loved the play area and the river!! Can't wait to book this again in the summer to enjoy the river more and the pool.
Love the attention to detail here. If you want a great "home base" for your mountain vacation, this is it!! Plenty of space to relax after a day of exploring.
Girl's Annual Trip was amazing!! This cabin is absolutely stunning. Plenty of room for a large group and the amenities are SUPERB!! Kitchen is excellently stocked, best I've ever seen! Hope to go with a family group next time!!!

Amazing place!
This place has so many levels of things to do! We had a blast and so many little extras were provided. We will definitely be back!
Our family loved the beautiful home on the river. It was the perfect size for our family of 10. The children loved the pool and all the games. It was a very relaxing week and we were very impressed with how clean and how nice the house was. We enjoyed visiting Mt Airy as our children love the Andy Griffith show.
We stayed here with our extended family for a week and had a fantastic time. We had a number of kids under age 10 with us and found the house and the pool well equipped for their imaginations. The weather was super hot that week, but with the trees and the water... we felt like we'd found an oasis. Very close to all things Andy Griffith and Mayberry as well as Pilot Mountain.
Loved the setup of the place. We all love to cook and the kitchen was stocked with everything one could possibly need. Totally plan on visiting again next year.
This is a beautiful home! The property feels secluded but it’s actually in town close to everything. Perfect for a family with all ages - playroom for toddlers, game room for older kids. It was perfect!

About the host
Hosted by Beata Lorinc
Hi — I'm Beata.
I'm married, mom to two boys (born in 2006 and 2009), a Penn State alum, and my family is originally from Poland — yes, I speak Polish. Over the years we've lived in multiple states and even a few different countries, and one thing I've learned is that some of the best memories rarely happen in the big planned moments.
They're usually the little things.
The late-night conversations around a fire. Coffee before everyone else wakes up. Kids laughing somewhere in the background while adults finally exhale for a minute.
Why they chose this property
Riverside was built around something I understand deeply: if you're the person booking the family vacation, reunion, or friend trip, you're usually carrying a lot more than just the reservation.
You're quietly hoping everyone has a good time.
I wanted a place where that could happen a little more naturally. Where grandparents could have slow mornings, kids could disappear into play, teenagers could find their own space, and the person planning everything could stop managing for a while.
What makes this property unique
I personally designed Riverside around shared experiences rather than simply adding amenities.
The Adventure Tower wasn't an afterthought. The river table wasn't picked from a catalog. The separate cottage wasn't just about adding sleeping space.
I wanted built-in reasons for people to gather, play, slow down, and reconnect.
You'll also receive a digital guest guide after booking with local recommendations, house details, and everything you'll need for an easy arrival. Small things are automated for speed, but anything important still comes directly from me.
