Winter Wonderland @ River Breeze! Cozy, Dog-Friendly Cabin Along the New River!

Welcome to River Breeze, your cozy, dog-friendly winter retreat tucked along the peaceful New River in the beautiful Ashe County mountains of West Jefferson, NC. January and February bring crisp air, quiet landscapes, and a peaceful High Country charm—perfect for a rejuvenating getaway after the holidays.

Sleeping up to 8 guests, the cabin features 3 bedrooms (1 king, 2 queens) plus a game room with twin-sized trundle beds—ideal for families, couples, or friends seeking a serene winter escape. Inside, unwind by the warm glow of the gas fireplace, enjoy movie nights in the den, or gather for s’mores around the outdoor firepit under clear winter skies.

River Breeze offers two spacious levels with room to relax and spread out, including two full kitchens, two inviting front porches, a den and upstairs living room, fast Wi-Fi, large TVs, a well-stocked coffee bar, and plenty of charging plugs for everyone’s devices. We provide essentials—shampoo, conditioner, body wash, paper products, hair dryers, cozy blankets, and fully stocked cookware for hearty winter meals. The fenced-in yard makes travel easy for your pets, and the quiet river road is perfect for peaceful winter walks.

Located just minutes from downtown West Jefferson, you’ll enjoy slow-season charm: cozy restaurants, craft beer, wine tasting at Old Barn Winery, Boondocks Brewing, local art galleries, coffee shops, and uncrowded shopping at the town’s unique boutiques. Winter is an ideal time to explore the area with fewer crowds.

January and February local highlights often include:
• Winterfest events in nearby Boone
• Ice skating at the Appalachian Ski Mountain rink
• Skiing, snowboarding & tubing within 30–40 minutes
• Winter hiking at Mount Jefferson or the New River State Park trails
• Chocolate Walks, art strolls, live music, and rotating small-town events in West Jefferson
• Scenic drives along the Blue Ridge Parkway when conditions allow

Whether you’re craving a peaceful reset, snowy mountain adventures, or a romantic winter getaway, River Breeze is your perfect home base for exploring the High Country in January and February. Relax, recharge, and enjoy the beauty of the season in West Jefferson, NC.
