Last family outing before school starts

Everyone enjoys the experience of fishing, swimming, eating crabs on the side porch, quiet morning coffee on the veranda,playing Mexican train in the evening, and being together for the 4th year. Perfect time together.

PEACE AND REST

We were looking for a place to visit with friends from home. We live on a boat at Dowry Creek Marina and it would be difficult for us to all stay on it. The home was beautiful...clean...well equipped. The views were breath taking. Such peace and a wonderful to rest in a very hectic world. Will be doing this again.

Overall, this property is amazing. The houses were so comfy and well stocked with everything that a family would need for any occasion. It exceeded my expectations. The experience, the two homes, the facilities, the surroundings, the cleanliness, the process was absolutely wonderful!!! The awesome porch inspired me to recreate that same design when I returned home! It was a 10 out of 5 stars!!

Property had a ton of extra things to make the stay fun and easy. Grill, hammock, chairs on dock, spices to cook with, ect ect. The linens were plentiful and easy to locate. Tons of beds to sleep in. Great house for multi family trips, friends trips or business groups that benefit from the house and cabin split.

A Secret Gem

This gem created so many treasured memories for my family. It had plenty of space between the house and cottage which was fully loaded with all of our essential needs, the wrap around porch had plenty of seating and a hammock which was great for early mornings to watch the sun rise and a pier for fishing. I would definitely recommend this property.

Perfect river weekend!

This property was the perfect spot for a girl's getaway weekend! The location right on the water with the dock was perfect to enjoy coffee in the morning and float around all afternoon. The second cabin on the property was a great additional space. The property manager was extremely helpful and came over immediately when we couldn't figure out the AC in the second cabin. Also great location to get into the little downtown area for brunch and make a stop at the grocery store. Will definitely consider staying again if ever in the area in the future!

Great Family Getaway

Riverbend was perfect for our family with kids ranging from 6-13. It is truly a hidden gem on the Pungo River that was incredibly relaxing and offered tons of entertainment for the kids - boating, tubing, paddle boarding, kayaking and swimming. Loved the additional cottage space adjacent to the main cabin. Lots of screened in porch space for outdoor eating or reading in the hammock. The house had everything we needed and more and can’t wait to go back!

Relaxing and Peaceful

We brought our three sons and three friends to these cabins for a 12th birthday celebration. The boys were outside the entire time and no electronics! The spot was very peaceful and we didn't leave the property once -- had everything we needed. Pictures are very accurate and the wrap around porch is a fantastic place to waste the time.
