Above The New River - Hot Tub + Gas Fireplace + LARGE Covered Porch

On Necessary Time

Perched just above the storied banks of the New River, On Necessary Time isn't your typical mountain escape — it's the sweet spot where design, nature, and soul meet.

Located just 10 minutes from downtown West Jefferson, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and two New River access parks, this bold-yet-cozy retreat is made for those who crave fresh mountain air without giving up creature comforts. Think: stylish mountain vibes, killer outdoor area, and total relaxation.

Wake up surrounded by a sea of green with oversized windows framing the historic New River below. Sip coffee on the massive deck while songbirds provide the soundtrack. At night, pour a drink, sink into the hot tub, and watch the stars come out. There's even a private hiking trail that leads straight to the river — perfect for casting a line or disappearing into a good book.

Inside? It's all high style and warm touches. A gas-burning fireplace anchors the open great room, while the fully stocked kitchen makes it easy to whip up a feast or just keep the charcuterie flowing.

AMENITIES: Hot tub, propane fire pit, gas fireplace in great room, Smart TVs (streaming logins not provided), Wi-Fi, washer/dryer, and central heating/air.

2/10 Terrible

Craig P.

Liked: Cleanliness

No water and no effort to rectify financially

Parking is terrible, only small soap bars and no shampoo (be sure to bring everything). Queen bed is completely wore out, needs a new mattress. Other than that the home is nice but was only in town for two days to attend a large family get together. Water stopped working Saturday afternoon. Had to go to family place to get ready that evening. Water finally working Sunday morning at 8:30. Waited two days for the leasing agent to offer something for the water being turned off. Not waiting any longer. Will not use Stay Blue Ridge again and this owner needs buy a mattress for the queen bed and don’t be so cheap with toiletries.
