About this property

Red River House on the New River.

Riverfront Home- 4 bed, 2 full bath, 2 half bath. This home sits directly on the New River with 300 feet of river frontage. The New River is at its widest part here at over 300 feet wide. In the summer it is 10 degrees cooler than the piedmont region. Hang out on the spacious front porch on one of the 4 rocking chairs or porch swings, walk along the river, or sit down by the river. There is plenty of wildlife to look for including deer, turkey, geese, groundhogs, eagles, bears and more! The river is ideal for fishing, wading, tubing, or kayaking.

You are about 10 minutes from shops, restaurants, and Food Lion in Sparta and about 7 minutes to Independence, VA where there is a wonderful Food City grocery store as well as various restaurants. The New River Campground is only about 1/2 mile away. You can rent tubes and kayaks there. They will drop you upriver and you end up back at the campground after your float. It's very convenient. In the fall, enjoy a fire in the stacked stone fireplace in the living room.

This is a two story post-and-beam house with about 2,200 square feet of space to spread out. The main living space is open concept with the kitchen, dining and living areas all in one. Both the house and kitchen are fully furnished, well appointed, and linens are provided.

Perfect for families, individuals, or small groups wanting to get away from it all. We are only 1.2 miles, 4 minutes, from Winter Wood Farm so it's a great place to stay if you are needing wedding accommodations. Ten miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway and about 30 miles north of I 77.
Come for a quiet, peaceful retreat or get active in the river.

Beautiful, cozy cabin on the River!
Don’t pass this listing up, this cabin has everything! There are 4 spacious bedrooms with comfortable beds. We each had our own space to retreat to! There were 4 bathrooms too, 2 are full and 2 are half. That came in handy with a larger group. The open living room/eat in kitchen area is large enough to fit 8 comfortably and is well appointed. There is a huge fireplace that we can’t wait to use the next time we come! The front porch overlooks the New River and had lots of seating for all of our guests. Great location too! Located on a private road not too close to other cabins and only 10 min from Sparta and Independence. We enjoyed a night out at a cute wine bar in Sparta! We will be back! Thanks for helping me with my reservation as well, it’s much appreciated!!

My husband and I own the last cabin at the end of the street and we have always admired this home. In September of 2023 we got together with two other friends and decided to purchase the Red House. We are so happy to be able to share it and the river with you!

Why they chose this property

The area is very peaceful and tranquil.

What makes this property unique

We think this is one of the best parts of the New River! We have 300 feet of river frontage and the river is 300 feet wide here. You are secluded but very close to Sparta and Independence, VA if you want to go out for a bite to eat or shop.
