Fancy Gap Mountain Escape

Beautiful home on 30 acre farm, very private with panoramic views in a very rural setting with easy access from I 77 and Hwy 52 off the Blue Ridge Parkway. Large back deck to sit and watch wildlife and relax in the mountain air. This home has evolved from a mobile home to a more conventional house. Our place is clean and very homey but nothing fancy. Special cleaning/disinfecting procedures used due to COVID. New carpet and paint January 2020. A short hike on the property to a mountain stream and picnic area. Nothing "fancy" but a very comfortable, country home with all amenities needed. We have wifi which almost always works remember we are rural. Some cell carriers work better than others. Verizon being the best. Three bedrooms and pull out couch will accommodate 8 people. Two full bathrooms. Ceiling fans in kitchen, living room and master bedroom. All linens, toiletries provided.Full size washer and dryer ( laundry detergent provided, fully equipped kitchen with dish washer, microwave, Cuisinart cookware, coffee and tea provided. There is an am/fm radio with speakers throughout the house located in the kitchen above the oven. It even takes cassettes if you have any! Charcoal grill with charcoal and lighter provided. Outside fire pit. Wi-Fi usually good but due to rural location has on occasion been slow. Cell service can be iffy with some providers, Verizon is best. Can almost always use WiFi and text. Dish TV.Heat and AC, gas log fireplace.Outdoor fire pit with wood provided. The property is private with plenty of room to roam around and explore. Safe from noisy highways but close to attractions. Close to several wineries, local attractions such as Blue Ridge Music Center, Galax Annual Fiddlers Convention, Floyd, Va Home of Floyd Fest, New River trails, biking, horseback riding, and water activities, close to Mt Airy, NC home of Andy Griffith, Mayberry RFD, two golf courses close by.

Beautiful mountain view!

Linda was fantastic! I didn't even realize I left something behind, but she contacted me so she could send it to me. The property was very quaint and private and a wonderful view of the mountains. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.

Quiet and relaxing

The house has a homey feeling. Beautiful view. Cows in the meadow. Linda is great. She came to visit us and brought her lab. And she loves people to pet and play with her. If you’re looking for solitude but wineries close to visit... this is the place to stay.

Amazing view!!

This was a perfect place for our short weekend stay. We came on Thanksgiving weekend so we could get a fresh Christmas tree. My two kids loved being outdoors running up and down the hills. It was very spacious on the inside. They have everything you could ever need from pot and pans to shampoo and conditioner!! The owners were very nice even though we didn't get the chance to meet them. Linda stayed in contact with us before and after our stay. Hopefully we will be back next year for another Christmas tree trip with the family!!!

Break from stress

The owners greet you when you arrive and walk you through. Thus you learn how things work and where things are. We returned for another visit. It is so quiet and dark. You can hear and see nature. The stars and moon are so beautiful. If you have any questions, Linda answers them immediately. Great sleeping, kitchen has about all anyone needs, TV has many channels, internet and phone service are everywhere(no spotty mess). We love to stay for a stress relief time.

Loved the view/didn't care for the house at all

Really enjoyed the peace and quiet, the views, the hosts, but the house was really run down and I don't recommend this to anyone and we won't be staying there again unless they do some MAJOR renovations to the house. Ants were crawling all over the kitchen counter, the walls had holes/scratches, all the doors were scratched up, the bathroom doors would not stay shut, etc/etc/etc......
