Fourth time our group of fly fishers have stayed here. Besides the closeness of streams to fish, there are many other activities and sites to visit for non fishers. The property is always super clean and has everything you need for meal prep and cooking. Owner promptly replies to any request or question.
We had a great time on a short trip over spring break. This is a great location for access to Grayson Highlands for hiking and West Jefferson for anything else. It's about 25 min to each one. The house had everything we needed and was very quiet and peaceful.
This was a perfect stay for a family and gathering with friends in the area. The location is just right— a beautiful mountain escape and close to the adorable town of Lansing with an awesome cidery (Molley Chompers— highly recommended), a few restaurants and shops. Even an art studio where you can book classes (Lost Province)! Thank you to the hosts for a wonderful stay.
4 of us thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful natural light and scenery from inside as we cooked and played board games in the evenings. We hiked at Grayson Highland Park, saw snow and ice and even 3 wild ponies. Then, downtown we enjoyed The Liar’s Bench , and especially the Coffee Shop. The town of Lansing is recovering beautifully and appreciating with kindness and warmth, the tourism as it returns after Helene.
Lancing family Xmas vacation/ 4th year anniversary
This property is amazing. The owner had Xmas decorations out for us and made the whole place magical. This was a surprise gift for my kids and they loved it. Was a much need family trip! Thank you!
We had a wonderful stay here! I will say that the internet was very weak and spotty, so the tv never really picked up a signal. HOWEVER, that was a blessing in disguise for us! It forced our children to go outside and be kids. We played games together, went on hikes up the hill to see the cows and gorgeous views, caught firefly’s, made smores by the fire pit, read books and spent quality time together…it was perfect! My kids needed a device detox anyway!
The upstairs shower does make a screaming noise so my children were afraid to use it, but it was fine. My only suggestion would be to add a hammock on the porch, I could have spent all day and night in that!
We didn’t want to leave! Thankyou for sharing your cabin with us. We’ll definitely return!
While we spent all day Saturday, the 15th, at the Festival at Grayson Highlands State Park, we greatly enjoyed our stay at this cabin. Nice kitchen for breadfasts and dinners. We enjoyed the porches and eating outdoors. Lots of bird activity. Nice quiet spot.
This was our third stay. It’s a great cabin just secluded enough. Owners are excellent and checked in on us after a big storm went through the area. Highly recommend.
This is my second time staying here and just as before - it was awesome. It’s a short 20 min drive to Grayson Highlands Park and allows for a quiet, secluded, relaxing stay away. I plan to return again next year!
We ended our spring break road trip here. It was amazing! Beautiful location and house was better than expected. Host was very nice and accommodating. This house is so spectacular. The apples from the working farm are used at the local cidery. That was a fun side trip after hiking g Grayson highland
Three girlfriends and I stayed here for a weekend in late March. The house was immaculate and had everything we needed—a well-equipped kitchen, plenty of towels and linens, lots of firewood, and four separate beds. We enjoyed the remarkably quiet and beautiful environs. The hot tub felt amazing. We felt rejuvenated at the end of our stay. I’d love to return for another peaceful get away.
Beautiful home, I think prettier in person. Home was stocked with everything we needed. Hot tub was fantastic, home was very private and clean. Would definitely recommend to someone who wants to unplug and relax in the middle of nowhere! Awesome weekend away that was much needed.
Beautiful place, cozy and nice! Clean and well stocked. One note would be please provide tissues and a nonstick pan that you can cook eggs in, that would have been nice. Everything else perfect!!
Awesome house. Very clean. Great views. Lots of wildlife and privacy. Hot tub was great.
(Bring regular coffee filters not cone style, the description is wrong)
We spent 3 days at this cabin with our son and grandson. Enjoyed relaxing on the porch and also enjoyed the hot tub. The cabin is nicely furnished with all the amenities that anyone would want for a stay. Climbed the hill for viewing the sunset but it was cloudy that evening. Also enjoyed a couple of the local restaurant and went hiking at Grayson Highlands State Park
This cabin is in a beautiful private location nestled in the hills. It had everything we needed (amenities and peace) for a mountain getaway. We'll definitely come back again!
Great home in peaceful, private location. It had everything we needed. We enjoyed a float down the New River and time with family and friends. We partied till the cows came home, which was about 8:30. 😅
Spent a whole week. The house is beautiful, all photos accurate. Well designed and spacious. When at the house spent most of our time on back deck watching the cows or using the hot tub. Never turned the tv on. Bed was comfortable, lines and towels nice quality. Would definitely return and recommend to friends.
This was our second time at this property. Just as nice as the first!! Secluded and safe location in a working farm. We were only interrupted by deer, rabbits and birds. Well stocked cabin, and only a short drive to a small town. Lots of hiking nearby at Greyson Highlands or Mt Jefferson State Park or on the hill behind the cabin. Owner is very prompt with answering any questions you may have. Highly recommend.
We came for the weekend to run the Greyson highlands 1/2 marathon. The property was not just exceptionally clean, but beautiful. The hot run was clean and just what we needed after the race. The beds were so comfortable and the quality of the linens was top notch. I would come back here in a heartbeat.
