A river rock bathroom need not look dark, old or rustic. With the use of the right color scheme and application, a modern, sleek, luxurious, spa-like, traditional, and yes rustic look can be achieved. The trick is in choosing the right kind of natural rocks, matching them up with other materials (like tiles and wooden features) and placing them accordingly and effectively in place.
Modern River Rock Bathroom Idea
![modern river rock bathroom idea](https://images.designtrends.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/10045930/Modern-River-Rock-Bathroom-Idea.jpg)
A modern bathroom can look neat by using natural river rocks in multiple shades of brown for the floor and a part of the wall of the shower area. To complement the rustic nature appeal of the stones, the rest of the bathroom is designed in natural colors – earl gray color for the vanity mirror wall, hand stained and hand assembled hardwood cabinets, and wood porcelain tiles for the rest of the shower area wall.
Stylish Bathroom with Single Vanity
![stylish bathroom with single vanity](https://images.designtrends.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/10050045/Stylish-Bathroom-with-Single-Vanity.jpg)
Creating a path of pebbles along the length of the sink area is a great idea for this stylish bathroom design. The single vanity mirror works well and its beauty is enhanced by the wooden side framings. The same pebbles (Zebra Bay) are used for the shower area floor and a part of the wall. The privacy mirror facing the vanity mirror adds style and sophistication to the entire design.
Cool White Bathroom with River Rock Floor

The whiteness of this bathroom truly stands out because of the dark colored river rocks used for some parts of the floor. The floating teak wood boards used for a walkway add color to the entire scheme. The shower enclosure also has wooden flooring, for an added cool look.
Lavish Bathroom with Wooden Ceiling

If you want a bathroom with a true rustic appeal, you may want to go for a wooden ceiling combined with river rock formation coming right out of the shower. This lavish bathroom idea is a real masterpiece with the unique transition from tub to shower.
Trendy Glass Enclosed Shower Bathroom

This trendy bathroom design provides a zen look with the solid maple, hand-carved freestanding tub sitting amid a sea of gray-hued river rocks. The floating rectangular copper tiles placed over the rock tiles create a contrasting look against the lightness of the tub. The shower area is of an enclosed glass design with a wooden (teak) bench inside.
Tropical Bathroom with Copper Soaking Tub

This bathroom takes tropical soaking to the next level. The bath opens directly to a lush green main garden guarded by a lava wall and the copper tub creating a main visual feature. The tub is set in the middle of dark colored and framed Hawaiian river rocks, making this a truly magical tropical bathroom idea.
Traditional Bathroom with Antique Cabinets

The antique cabinets give this bathroom the traditional or vintage look. The river rock on the shower floor provides the rustic appeal. The long glass shower enclosure, the vanity mirror and the pendant lights are responsible for the contemporary look. Basically, this bathroom idea is a unique incorporation of different styles.
