Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Year Purchased: 2006

We are a family owned property, owned by a brother and sister. We both grew up in this cabin and have wonderful memories of family retreats here. Our hope is for others to have some of the same wonderful memories by staying here. It is a wonderful, realaxing cabin!

Why the Owner Chose Claytor Lake

The cabin has been in our family for 15 years but was not used as a rental property until 2007. We love it because of the great fishing, amazing surroundings, and the wonderful memories with friends and family that have been made over the years.

The Unique Benefits of this Cabin

World class fishing in the New River. Playing cards and board games with the family out on the screened porch. Roasting marshmallows on the outdoor stone grill. Relaxing in the hammock. Intertubing down the river from the bridge. Riding bikes on the New River Trail State Park across the river from the cabin.

    • My husband and I had a most relaxing and wonderful time. The cabin was like a comfortable home away from home where we could check our hectic city life ay the door and remember who we are at heart. Spending the day painting the view from the deck while my husband relaxed in the hammock or fished at the river was just what we were looking for. I will be telling everyone I know what a wonderful time we had. The cabin is beautiful, comfy, clean and very well stocked. All the touches that you would look for or need while away from home.

    • What a wonderful surprise getaway! The cabin was beautiful and well stocked. It was very relaxing listening to the river and lounging in the hammock. We look forward to going back soon! Glad to have found this wonderful "hideaway".

    • Very nice place in a great location, right on the river, with grassy banks and a small island to explore just offshore. Pretty much everything you need is in the house and only about 5 miles to the nearest country store at Barren Springs. Good bike riding along the quiet river road (not to mention the New River Bike Trail right across the river) and there is a nice put-in location for canoes just behind the house. Note that cell reception is problemmatic unless you have Sprint but there is a regular phone available for local calls.

    • Bella Casa was our destination for our 2009 vacation in July. The Cabin is everything you could ever want it to be and more. It was well stocked with all amenities one needs for a great vacation. The river was beautiful to wake up to each morning and was a source of endless activities for the whole family. Looking forward to our next visit to Bella Casa!

    • The cabin was very well stocked with household essentials. Everthing was very clean. My family and I enjoyed an entire week. It was a great feeling to be able to wake up and go fishing every morning with only a few steps to the water and the view must be seen looking down the river, it won't disappoint. I can't wait to see it during the autumn months.

    • Another awesome spring break spent at Bella Casa. A clean and comfortable cabin equipped with all that you need. A pot of coffee sitting on the porch listening to the river flow just doesn’t get any more peaceful than that. Our girls really enjoyed fishing from the bank, the local wildlife (ducks, geese, and a few squirrels, the hammock rides and of course the cookouts. Sitting in front of the warm fire place really makes us enjoy the cool weather that usually lingers during an early spring break. I recommend this cabin to anyone who loves the mountain views and the peace of nature.

    • This is a beautiful cabin right on the New River banks. It is a very cozy, well decorated and well stocked cabin. There is also a hammock close to the water that is great for reading and dozing!! I spent alot of time there. I would recommend this cabin to anyone who loves peace and quiet and beautiful scenery. We will definitely be back!!

    • Our boys continue to talk about our time on the New River and at your cabin!! It was all so wonderful...daily fishing and kayaking, our dog being with us, the sounds of the river, ETC! Our day trips were all awesome as well, particularly riding bikes all over the Va Tech campus, boating on Claytor Lake and hiking to the Cascade Falls! Really, we needed another week! We hope to return to your wonderful cabin again next spring!

    • I rented this home on the river for 6 nights. Coming from Florida to VA it sure was a nice change of pace! Driving to it was awesome and once we saw the property we were just amazed. So peaceful and quiet. We spent alot of time outdoors on and in the river. My 14 year old son fished and was estatic with what he caught. Just sitting outside and watching the river flow was relaxing enough for me. Walking the dog along the road was nice. He stayed on the property and enjoyed the freedom. The home itself was very clean,cozy and there was more than plenty of room for the 3 of us and the dog. Central air and heat had just been installed, however, coming from Florida, I did not see the need for air! We checked out the area and it's all beautiful. I never made it to Roanoke! I'm sure winter is just as wonderful and I'm sure the fireplace would cozy it up as well. It was a nice get a way from every day life in the city. I would have liked to have stayed more days but weekends were not affordable for us, since the rate changes. I would recommend vacationing here and hope to return to VA in the future, permanently, when my house sells here in Florida.
