WE HAVE JUST SPENT BRIDGE DAY WEEKEND AT COUNTRY RIVER INN. IT WAS A PLEASANT SURPRISE AND UNIQUE. THE ACCOMODATIONS WERE VERY NICE AND A GREAT IMPROVEMENT OVER SOME OF THE MAJOR HOTELS I HAVE VISITED. LOIS MADE FOR US A REAL COUNTRY BREAKFAST AND A TASTY PIZZA. THE INN IS VERY CONVENIENT TO ALL ACTIVITIES AND THERE ARE LOTS OF GREAT PLACES TO EAT IF YOU WANT. WHILE WE WERE THERE, WE EXPERIENCED A MINOR AUTO PROBLEM AND RICK AND LOIS WENT OUT OF THEIR WAY TO HELP US CORRECT IT. THEY SURE KNOW HOW TO MAKE YOU FEEL "RIGHT AT HOME". THANKS FOR EVERYTHING RICK AND LOIS. P.S. THE TRAIN RIDE WAS GREAT. HI TO DELILAH, JO
We spent a beautiful 3 days at Country River Inn. Rick & Lois made us feel right at home and Polly (the dog) was the bomb! We were greeted at least 3 times a day by Polly with lots of love. The rooms were very nice, clean and spacious. Rick & Lois' knowlege of the local fare and hiking trails was very helpful. Looking forward to staying again next year and hopefully the hot tub will be ready!!! We recommend this lovely place to anyone. Thanks again for a great place to stay and feel welcome.Mike and Cynthia
Usually where one stays on a vacation is insignificant unless the accomodations are exceedingly bad. For our West Virginia trip it was the opposite. Our stay at the Country River Inn actually enhanced our visit. The hosts are fantastic and Polly is a great little dog. The accomodations are a great value for the money and easily better than staying at a run of the mill hotel. And just as their web page states, they really are right in the middle of it all at the New River Gorge. Nathan and Julie
My family stayed at the Country River Inn this past weekend (13 of us total to celebrate my brother's 30th birthday). The rooms are extremely clean, spacious, and cozy. This hotel offers all of the amenities of a large hotel chain and more. A great place to stay at a great price! We will be back!
Thanks for a wonderful place to stay! We so much enjoyed our stay at the Country River Inn. We will be back. Everything was perfect, from the rooms to Breakfast. Thanks again for your hospitality and we are telling all of our friends! Robert, Millie & Kara Staunton, Virgina
To All Old-Time String Band Musicians Attending the Clifftop Convention: Country River Inn is a wonderful place to stay during the convention. The daily drive to and back from Clifftop is easy - and there is more than a little something to be said for sleeping in a nicely made bed each evening, taking a hot shower in the morning, and having a continental breakfast prepared for you each morning. For those of you who are wondering if you might be getting too old for or tired of camping at Clifftop, Country River Inn is a super alternative. Duncan Blair Birmingham, Alabama
We recently had the pleasure of spending a weekend at Country River Inn and we found the rooms very clean, comfortable and quiet. Our friendly hosts made us feel very much at home, but also graciously allowed us to enjoy our family time. CRI is convenient to Fayetteville and several area restaurants. We highly recommend Smokey's On The Gorge located across the New River Gorge Bridge. We also enjoyed our meal at the Sedona Grille. Thank you, Lois, Rick and Delilah. Charles and Becky Carter
I enjoyed my stay here. I felt like one of the family. The rooms are great and has everything you need. A very good B&B - I would definitely stay here again. Deborah Strong Murfreesboro, TN
The owners are so nice and friendly and the rooms, so clean and nice. Thanks Leon and Sherry Janey Martinsville VA
Thanks so much for a wonderful, comfortable night, and the local knowledge was invaluable. The trip with USA Raft down the New River was one of the most fun things we've ever done, and we came thiiiiiiiiiis close to staying over another night and doing it all again Tuesday. We're definitely comin' back that way one of these days and the Country River Inn, the Sedona Grill and the Cathedral Cafe will be "must" stops for us. Thanks so much and God bless, Thomas and Margaret Pope
Once again, we were very happy with the stay at the Country River Inn. Very enjoyable and great people. Thanks!
We had never been to the area and were looking for hotel accommodations in Fayetteville. We came across Country River Inn on the internet and it looked like an interesting alternative to a traditional hotel....and very close to our planned horseback riding and whitewater rafting activities. We are so glad that we chose it -- it was simply perfect. In many ways like a hotel with new, clean and well appointed rooms....but the homey and personal touch of a B&B! The kids loved it because it was different and we all enjoyed visiting with and the hospitality of Rick, Lois and Delilah. And Polly the dog who was icing on the cake. I would recommend the Country River Inn to anyone, we'll definitely be back. Sean, Shelly, Sheridan and Taylor (Cincinnati, OH)
You have a wonderful place - so neat and clean and very friendly. Glad we found you and will stay with you again. Ron and Jeanne Rearick
Everything was fantastic!! Thank you so so much.
This place is GREAT, very homey! I was pleasantly surprised at how warm and inviting the interior looked. All of the bedrooms have their own tv, microwave, and mini fridge - what more could you ask for. Devin Oklahoma City

We were delighted by the fabulous hospitality of Lois and Rick. They are so friendly and accommodating. We felt like we were staying with old friends and will definitely come back. We’ve already told all of our friends and family what a great place Country River Inn is. Delilah was precious, and of course, we loved Polly. Thanks! – Katie and Kim
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! From the moment you walk in, you are made to feel at home. Rick and Lois make your stay memorable. Would recommend this place to friends and anyone coming to the area. Bob and Betty Mead
We have stayed with you two different times. We have totally enjoyed staying with you. You were very accomodating. It's fun to share in a part of the past history of Fayetteville. They have really made great use of a historic building. We have had a wonderful experience each time we have stayed there. Ranell Minear and David Seitzer
Country River Inn is the place to stay. Lois and Rick are friendly and accommodating to the needs of their guests. They go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The rooms are clean and spacious, it feels like home. We will be returning to Fayetteville next summer and the only place we will stay is the Country River Inn. Thanks Lois, Rick and Delilah. Len, Mary and Jennifer.
We really enjoyed our stay. The rooms are spacious and clean and there is a warm, friendly family atmosphere. Thanks, Burchel and Cathy Pierce
Thank you so very much for your hospitality. From the time we arrived to the time we departed you made us feel like we were your only guests. We were extremely comfortable and found the rooms to be an excellent haven during our sightseeing weekend of Wild Wonderful West Virginia. Thanks again for your personal attention. Anita and Justin
Enjoyed the stay! Your customer service is great. Look forward to coming back sometime. S Francis
Hi, being back in little Denmark after our trip to the US, everybody in our group agree that staying with Lois, Rick and Delilah at the Country River Inn was an important factor to make our stay in WV as good as we think it was. The facilities and service were really clean and good, but the hosts are really what makes us want to drop in if we ever get to WV again. The communication and arrangements prior to our arrival went smooth. Rick and Lois were really helpful and they recommended a lot of good stuff that we enjoyed seeing while staying there. Thanks guys, drop us a note if you ever think of going to Denmark ;) -The four danish scouts. Helena, Katrine, Louise and Chris
The Country River Inn is an absolutely wonderful place to stay...the rooms are spacious and clean, the owners are wonderful and make you feel at home. Delilah is a delight! The new deck is a great place to sit and enjoy the atmosphere. We wouldn't think of staying anywhere else when in the area. Gary and Paula Horne
A great "stay" for a long Labor Day weekend. Casual, informal, comfortable, and FRIENDLY. Thanks. The Davis'
The inn was wonderful. The rooms were larger than expected and so clean. It was extremely nice to stay somewhere and feel at home. I know the kids enjoyed Polly as well as the freedom to be able to move around the building without us worrying about them. I hope you were able to finish your pool deck. I know Joshua was disappointed that we would not allow him to lend a hand in the building process. Thank you also for sending us home with some tomatoes and green peppers. It was a nice surprise and thoroughly enjoyed. The Leibel's
Thanks again for the wonderful stay at the Country River Inn. Rick and Lois go above and beyond to make your stay a happy one. The rooms are better than any hotel where I have stayed. I was treated like family. Being a former teacher, I really enjoyed staying in a historic remodeled school building. It was a great idea to turn it into a bed and breakfast. I travel frequently and wish I could stay more often. I definitely will return if I'm in the area again. Thanks for everything, Joe Mazzola Mid-American Coaches Washington, MO
Thanks so much for the wonderful stay we had. It was perfectly quiet and very relaxing. Close to good hiking, horse back riding, and places to eat. We really enjoyed Sedona Grill, Cathedral Cafe, and Dirty Ernie's Rib Pit. We look forward to our next stay. Robert and Aleta
Truly a hidden treasure in the mountains of West Virginia! From the very gracious hosts of Rick, Lois, Delilah & Polly to the comfortable, spacious rooms, it is simply a delightful place to stay! And listen to Rick & Lois' recommendations on where to eat--they will point you to some wonderful local restaurants. (Matter of fact, we are trying to recreate one of the unique pizzas that we had a "Pies and Pints"!) Thanks for making us feel at home--we're certainly going to tell our other white-water rafting friends to stay with you! Dave & Debbie Bailey, Beavercreek OH
Bob and I stayed at the Country River Inn in August 2006 while we attended the Appalachian String Band Music Festival at Camp Washington Carver in Clifftop, WV. The inn is nice and clean and comfortable. Rick and Lois and family are wonderful hosts. I would definitely come again. Julie Mangin
You could not have made us feel more at home. Thanks for your hospitality. Many blessings for you. Brenda Wood Fuquay-Varina, NC
We cannot wait to pass along our great find to our friends. The Country River Inn is a fantastic place to stay. Not only are the rooms clean but the entire Inn is spotless. We really felt at home staying there. We had a slight emergency and had to stay an extra night. Rick and Lois were more than accomodating and really made us feel right at home. I have been coming to this area for over 10 years to go white water rafting, this is the first year that I have been truly happy with where I have stayed. I plan on rafting for many more years and will continue to come back to the Country River Inn each time. When you stop by to say Hi, take a dog treat with you because cute little polly will be there to greet you with a tail wag. We wish Rick, Lois, Delilah and Polly the very best. They are a super nice family and they have the best place in town to stay. Tony & Carol
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at CRI and felt like it was a “home away from home.” We loved being greeted in the morning by Polly and enjoyed getting to know Rick and Lois. The rooms have every accommodation you need and are very comfortable. The location is perfect—just minutes from great restaurants and outdoor activities. Next time we plan a trip in the area, we will be sure to make a reservation with CRI. Thanks! Amanda and Jon Mosby
Restful, clean, great accommodations! Thank you.
We have just returned from our first visit at The Country River Inn - and it will NOT be our last. We have been returning to West Virginia for over 30 years, and we have stayed in a lot of places...this is by far the best. The room was wonderful, it was homey and CLEAN! The food was great - and the company even better. Delilah, Polly, and oh yes, Rick and Lois - could not have made us feel more welcome - almost like family. We told our "travelling" family about the Inn - and are hopeful that more will come with us. We know that we will be back! Thank you all for the best home away from home experience that we have had. See you soon. Rick and Norma Lonnemann; and John Lopinsky
Love the freshness of it all. Very nice and will come again.
The Country River Inn was a very nice place to stay. It has a very homey feel and you feel very welcome. The owners, Rick, Lois, and Delilah, are great and so is Polly. Kenny and Lisa Johnston Spring, TX
Wow! What a great place to stay! The place is very nice and like home. The people here are very nice and make you feel welcome. I would recommend the Country River Inn to my family and friends. The Lowery Family Spring, Texas
We really enjoyed our stay! The room/facilities are so clean and neat. We'll definitely come back when we're in the area again! Will recommend to friends.
I slept better at the Country River Inn than I do at home. The beds are awesome, and it's so quiet. The rooms are spotless and the hosts are excellent. Highly recommended.
We highly recommend this inn. Our hosts were delightful - we were welcomed by Lois, Rick and their darling daughter Delilah. The accommodation was appealing, clean, comfortable and very recently rennovated. Thank you. Jenny & David
It's a wonderful place to relax and get away from it all, and still close to outdoor activities and restaurants. We enjoyed the warm hospitality of the owners as well as the clean, comfortable rooms. We look forward to staying here again! Brian & Beth
We enjoyed the friendly, family, clean, and quiet atmosphere. The amenities and location of the B&B were outstanding. We definitely would recommend staying here to others. Thank you - Charles and Karen Tillman
Country River Inn-Clean, comfortable, very gracious hosts. A great place to stay while enjoying the wonders and beauty of West Virginia. And, by the way, hostess Lois may well make the finest banana nut bread to be found on the east coast. Bob & Becky Underwood
What a wonderful find! Rick and Lois were amazing hosts and couldn't have worked any harder to ensure we had everything we could need or want. The room was spacious, spotless and quiet - the perfect retreat after a day on the river. The location is ideal, near all the rafting outfitters and a variety of restaurants (The Sedona Grill was our favorite). We will definitely be back and look forward to another stay. Thanks for everything!
The motel was very clean and comfortable. We were very close to transportation to Bridge Day and right down the street from some beautiful hiking and biking trails. Long Point was incredible and you can't beat Lois' pizza!
Wonderful stay, hosts are great, rooms are clean and comfortable. Will let everyone know you are open. Thank you!
Over "Bridge Day 2005" my wife and I had the pleasure to stay here and we must say...3 major points stand out. CLEAN, HOSPITABLE AND SERVICE ABOVE AND BEYOND. Anyone will find the experience worth the little extra drive to find such a "warm, nice place" that will compliment your Fayetteville visit. "Give them a try". Gary and Donna Vice.
The Country River Inn is warm, clean, and comfortable. The chain hotels don't compare.
The Country River Inn is the best kept secret in Fayetteville. Lois & Rick know what the term Bed & Breakfast means. I felt like I was at home during the 3 days I spent with them. When your plans bring you to Fayetteville WV make sure you stay at the Country River Inn. The best kept secret in town. (I'll try my best to get the word out.) Thanks again Delroy Burton Washington, DC 10/6/05
The best breakfast in town. Lois, makes awesome milk gravy. Anyone who chooses this property to stay will enjoy the bed and breakfast feel that it offers. Great beds, great people and a really unique setting in an old renovated grammar school give this property a cool retro look. Very quiet and away from downtown, you feel as if you are in the middle of the woods. Great job on the renovation Rick. Hope to return soon to this great place. I would recommend to all. Jack Tickle 828-217-4491
Great Get-Away place. Nice hosts. Enjoyed a nice clean room. We'll be back.
My husband and I stayed at your facility this past July. We loved your place! The rooms were clean and spacious. The meals were awesome. My husband particlarly loved your "Wild West Virginia Walnuts". You made us feel so comfortable and at home. The location was so close to everything. We will certainly return and tell all our friends. We live in Chicago and travel quite a bit. You have a winner! We look forward to staying at the Country River Inn next year. Angela and Mike Rozovics
We had a fabulous two night stay at the CRI earlier this month. The accomodations were comfortable and cosy, and the breakfasts were delicious and more than ample. The very best thing, however, were the friendly, hospitable and talented innkeepers, Rick and Lois. We loved getting to know them a bit and learning about how they dreamed and worked to open the inn. We'll be back to get to know them better! Ann and Warren
During our stay at Country River Inn my family and I had a pleasent exprience at the Inn. The room was very clean and the beds were so comfortable it felt like we were sleeping on a cloud. The home cook meals were delicious and the service was wonderful!! Country River Inn is very charming and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for good food and friendly hospitality. We give it 10********** Thank you for a delightful time. See you in the spring!!! Mike & family
The Country River Inn was an awesome place to stay. The owners were very helpful, friendly and accomodating. I would recommend this to anyone and will hopefully return next year!!!
Outstanding, super clean, beautiful rooms. Just as advertised. We will return. Thanks.
We loved our stay at the CRI! The rooms were spacious, clean and had an at "home appeal". The CRI was located close to town and to many activities. The staff was warm, friendly and very accomodating to our every need. We loved the overall atmosphere of the CRI so much that we are planning a trip next year for Bridge Day!
