Peaceful and Breathtaking views!

We were visiting Augusta to celebrate our granddaughter getting married. We arrived after dark. The next morning I awoke before sunrise... walked out on to the deck with coffee to an amazing picturesque view over the Savannah River! The description and reality were SPOT ON! The space was open and relaxing! When Augusta calls again, we will go right back to this home!

I am very glad to hear that your River House experience exceeded your expectations and you found much pleasure with your stay! I seek to be present and available during any guest stay by phone or text to ensure a quick response to provide the best of vacations stay. I'm glad you appreciated my efforts and found everything to be very clean with a smooth check in. I have heard from past guests how they also found the River House to be considerably lower priced that included so many amenities all included in the booking with NO EXTRA FEES and on the Savannah River. Guests like yourself have said that I offer a much better value for the money though they were initially searching for the more popular vacation spots like Charleston SC, Hilton Head, Myrtle Beach, Savannah GA, or Atlanta GA. They like yourself said they got so much more staying at the River House! I'm so glad you chose to stay at the River House! It was a pleasure hosting you! I look forward to your return stay at the River House or my other properties that I give to those special guests whom have been super guests! I'll be sending you the link to my other properties :)

Response from VrboOwner on 25 May 2022
Such a great comment, 'tucked away'! And yet only 5 min to downtown Augusta! I've also heard, 'Diamond in the Ruff' since the River House has a thick wooded area buffering it from the street. Most Augusta locals don't even know of this stretch of River Frontage estates and yet after living in Augusta, while serving in the Army, it became our favorite place to be. We felt we were on vacation when at the River House and didn't have a desire to go anywhere else. Our 4 sons loved all the water sports available and it occupied them and their friends ALL day! So glad you felt you were able to relax while at the River House! Thank you for choosing me to host you! It was such a pleasure sharing our home with you!

This was the perfect place to stay to attend the Masters, or to simply enjoy the outdoors along the water. We spent a lot of time at the firepit looking out over the water, and watching some Masters coverage on the comfy couch in the living room. Great communication from the property manager.

Communication with owner was thorough and clear. House was very clean, and was stocked nicely with all the basics. The back of the house is almost entirely windows, so the view of the river was beautiful. Morning coffee on the back deck was bliss! Pool was nice, and there were plenty of floats and toys under the house.

Wonderful getaway

This was a wonderful place for us to escape for spring break. We had a pool, kayaks, kitchen to cook in and much more. We enjoyed a baseball game near by in north Augusta, walks along the river walk in Augusta, seeing the James Brown statue, and wonderful places to eat. kJ did such a great job at providing a safe and comfortable place to stay, and also giving advice on fun things to do as a family. Golfing over the river or over the pool was equally fun. We would definitely return to this great property.

I enjoyed the photo of your kids shooting golf balls and playing the new corn hole board set outside told me that was a much needed upgrade! Downtown Augusta is like a mix of Savannah and Charleston with all its charming shopping and restaurants. It is a fun place to walk and enjoy Southern Hospitality without all the crowds...

Peaceful Secluded River oasis

I stayed here while filming a Tv show in Augusta, the house was perfect, very secluded & pvt, lush landscaping/ garden property along the peaceful Savannah river. Close to everything! The house was very clean and comfortable. I enjoy cooking and the kitchen was perfect. The outside deck was great for working out. Upon checking in the owner left some welcome gifts that I really enjoyed! This house is the perfect rental for individuals or families. I would stay here again! Michelle Rodriguez

It was such a thrill to host you and hear how much you enjoyed your stay! I'm so glad that the privacy proved to be just what you needed. I have wanted to share the Riverhouse with a famous person like yourself, to know if they felt private and safe with a place they could rest and be restored. So happy the Riverhouse passed with flying colors! It was a treat to have the star of 'Fast and Furious'! If you ever film or vacation to Park City, Utah or Maui, Hawaii, get in touch, as I have some other private stays there too.
