About the host
Hosted by Tammy Stoddard and Candace Brambley
This was our Mother's dream house. In 1984, she retired and moved from New York to Galax building this beautiful home. We have been coming here for many years of wonderful family gatherings. My Mother had 5 daughters and we all would come here to visit and enjoy the quiet relaxing atmosphere. We would sit on the porch and enjoy the beautiful hummingbirds that would swarm the feeders and trumpet vines. Many long walks have been taken to the stream and back. If you listen carefully you can hear the stream running down the mountain. We miss her greatly but when we come back to "her mountain", it feels like she has been waiting for us to come home and visit. We hope that you will be able to enjoy this house as much as we have.
What makes this property unique
On a clear day you can see the sky scrapers in Winston-Salem. Who doesn't enjoy a good thunder cracking rainstorm? During 4th of July many people in the valley shoot off fire works and you get a birds eye view. A lovely home to come to and enjoy the annual Fiddlers Convention. Nothing can be more beautiful then Fall in the Mountains. You can see Interstate 77 many miles away and be glad you are on the mountain and not on interstate 77.
