Perfect Quiet Getaway
My husband and I came here for a working weekend away after two back to back business trips. The Harvest Moon was simple yet cozy and it provided the perfect decompression space. With welcoming seating both indoors and outdoors, there is plenty of space to spread out and relax. The lake is an easy walk from the cabin. And there are plenty of walking trails to choose from. The Harvest Moon provided the perfect balance of quiet retreat and working functionality. WiFi worked great and allowed us to work as needed during our retreat. Definitely recommend.

Great Escape from the day to day
This cabin was amazing. The decor and fire place was something special. It provides you with a good escape with lots of privacy including your own private trail to the lake (which is a 3 minute walk from the cabin). We enjoyed sitting outside listening to the leaves fall and just soaking in the peace and quiet this cabin provides. It has a modern vibe with a lot of the amenities and upgrades but still fills like the cabin getaways of yester-years. We loved it and enjoyed the Fairytale Cafe which is a 20 minute drive away but a fun little jewel of an eatery. Highly recommend.

Tranquility in the woods
Such a beautiful & well appointed cabin. Everything you need to sit back & enjoy nature or lounge on the large reclining sofa by the fireplace with a book. We loved, loved the outdoor propane firepit in the evenings as well as the BBQ. Relaxing with a glass of wine & listening to the sounds of the forest & trees. The husband got to watch his favorite team play football while we played cards at the table. It's a short walk to the lake & the pups loved walking up the road. In all, an amazing, relaxing getaway so close to Roanoke.
