Perfect Summer Family Vacation
We loved staying here from the location to the amenities and the overall perfection of being able to make it home base so comfortably while we did a plethora of fun excursions and day trips to visit family and to do all those quintessential memory making experiences from water falls to swimming holes to river tubing to hiking breweries, distilleries and great eating both out and at home (summer local produce is to die for). Looking forward to do more trips here and experience different seasons and activities … such great hiking trails can’t wait for a fall trip.

The house provided exactly what we needed. We visited multiple sites around the area and basically were gone the majority of the day, but the family enjoyed the house very much so. Kids loved the ping pong table and card games after returning to the house each day. The house is near alot of beautiful sites and state parks. We took advantage of this every day. We would definitely stay again.

Mountain Paradise
This beautiful property is very private and close to so many wonderful places to visit; Caesar's Head, Table Rock State Park, Pretty Place, Jones Gap State Park. There are lots of hiking trails, waterfalls and lakes only minutes away. The house was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. The floor plan is all on one level with split bedrooms. The sunroom and back porches overlook a river. It is the perfect place for relaxation. The price was very affordable, especially for the number of beds. The owner's were very responsive as well. Great place for relaxing and enjoying acres of undeveloped mountains!
