Absolutely beautiful place! We were looking for a large cabin/lodge style home to stay in with other family members and this place was perfect. Privacy, beauty, conversation pieces, etc. So much to do! The home lies between Staunton & Lexington/Natural Bridge, but there are no shops within a 20-minute drive, so bring lots of provisions. We only stayed for 3 nights but wished we would have booked a longer stay, as we spent several days visiting attractions such as The Safari Park Zoo, Natural Bridge & the huge Factory Antique Mall in Verona on the one rainy day. Hope to visit again next year for a longer stay!

We were in town for a wedding in Lexington. We had a truly wonderful stay! This was our very first VRBO experience, and it far exceeded our expectations. The home was beautiful, comfortable, and well stocked, with so many thoughtful touches throughout. The scenery is absolutely breathtaking—the mountain views alone are worth the trip!Our family especially loved spending time by the fishing pond, soaking in the hot tub, and enjoying evenings around the fire pit. The games for the kids were a big hit, and they were already asking when we can come back. Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to explore the trails, but that just gives us the perfect reason to return for a longer stay.The only small suggestion we have is that the kids were on the lookout for hot cocoa at the “hot cocoa bar” since the sign made them excited for it—but everything else was absolutely perfect.We didn’t want to leave and are already looking forward to coming back. Thank you for making our first VRBO such an exceptional and memorable experience!!!!

Family gathering

We were in town for my daughter‘s college graduation. I had family coming in from Pennsylvania and Iowa and this property was perfect for our gathering! We went fishing in the pond, roasted hot dogs over the fire, and sat in the hot tub. The lodge was very large and there was more than enough room to socialize and celebrate. The lodge is beautiful and the grounds were peaceful. I highly recommend the lodge!

Great stay!

Couldn’t be happier with our stay. The place was exactly as described and we really enjoyed the atmosphere. We didn’t have a ton of time there since we were competing at the Virginia horse center but the time we did have was super relaxing. My son and I even had time for a little fishing. The stars at night are amazing

Labor Day Trip

This was our second time staying at this beautiful property and plan on retruning again in the future. We really enjoy the privacy of this property, the scenic views from the porch, and the fishing pond. At night, the stars are incredible to view when relaxing in the hot tub.

Wedding weekend getaway

My friends and I came out to the area for a wedding and had a great stay at the lodge. The hosts were extremely responsive and the place was perfect for a big group of friends. We appreciated the very simple checkout process and absence of complicated instructions. The location was very remote so it’s difficult to get to things quickly but perfect for a quiet weekend in the mountains.

Countryside log cabin retreat

Modernized log cabin nestled in the serene countryside perched on a hill with breathtaking views.. really enjoyed sitting on the porch doing absolutely nothing. plenty of outdoor activities for all ages.

Very relaxing

Had a very relaxing trip. It was a short stay but the owners went above and beyond to accommodate us. From the morning sun to the night sky and the feel of lodge everything was very relaxing. The pond was the highlight, the kids and us adults all caught fish. The lodge felt very homey and had everything we needed. I would highly recommend this place and am in fact planning my next visit.

Everything was as described. Communication told us everything we needed to know. Got check in instructions ahead of time. Hot tub was cleaning and working. Perfect place to stay for some space/privacy and about 20-25 minutes to some local breweries and shopping.

Womderul VMI reunion weekend

My group of BR's and our families thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cabin for our 20 year VMI reunion. It's about a 25 min drive from Post but well worth the drive. We enjoyed the pond, canoes, pedal boats etc. The kids fished from the stocked pond which is catch and release. Our group enjoyed the fire pit at night and the beautiful scenery of the mountains from the deck and of course the Jacuzzi was a nice way to hang out at night. We will keep this property in mind for future reunion weekends!
