Excellent condition for our needs , very clean Fully equipped Kitchen and bathrooms Hot water was on point , plenty of lights Great location for a getaway in the mountains in the western part of the state Great communication with John very knowledgeable about the area with helpful information.
Loved it. The only thing was it was alittle challenging on the outside steps. My mother has balance issues, so maybe a railing to grab ahold of. It was so beautiful, quiet, serene. Thus us the most well sticked cabin I have experienced. Thankyou, We will be back.
We have stayed here twice. Like it so much we have already rented it for next year. It has always been clean. The beds are comfortable. The host is great. It's stocked with necessities you might firget ti pack. If you want peace and quiet, this is the place!
We love this cabin! It is very close to our family and not far from Meadows of Dan. It is always the first cabin we check for availability when coming to the area. We will be back soon!

Cozy cabin with many nice conveniences, ease of access and responsive hosts to questions.
Very responsive owners to our questions, very hot water and warm & cozy atmosphere on a freezing wknd! Close to many hikes and good music, I would come back again!
The cabin was very nice and comfortable. Kitchen well equipped. Communication with the owner was quick and responsive. Close to parkway access. Unfortunately the weather did not cooperate. Downfall to the property, the driveway is long and somewhat narrow for large truck and motorcycle trailer, difficult to maneuver. 4.5 stars overall. Thanks John.
John is an excellent host. Communication A+! The home had everything we needed. The king bed downstairs is extremely comfortable! Perfect for visiting that section of the Blue Ridge Parkway and Floyd, VA!

Right off Blue Ridge Parkway, no housekeeping
Fabulous location, no charge for housekeeping but, found bed not made, bathroom not cleaned, and trash can full in kitchen. Washer n dryer work so you can tidy up yourself.

I loved the home so much we had decided to stay here again. This time upon arrival the home reeked of mold so bad we had to open all windows and doors with fans to try to clear the smell. It was late when we arrived and I didn’t have any cell service to contact the owner. Upon going into the bathroom the shower Matt was dirty and stained. I picked it up and there was dirt and hair underneath. A Used bar of soap to use.The next day I contacted the owner via Vrbo and got no response. I called the telephone number and reached him. He said there was nothing he could do. I would have to clean it myself but assured me all of the cleaning supplies were there. Because of the mold my allergies were awful so we stayed gone long as possible. I went to go clean the shower. There were no gloves, no sponges or cleaning rags. The only thing available was the wash cloths. We scrapped that idea and all took turns taking a bird bath in the kitchen sink. The rest of the house was clean except the kitchen wash cloth left to use was dirty. Unfortunately, as lovely as this cabin was with a mold allergy I could never stay here again. We had the windows open and fans on the entire time and the mold could still be smelled when entering the home.

This is an older well lived in cottage surrounded by mountain vegetation. It was very welcoming and fully stocked. It has an eclectic vibe. Very convenient access to the Blue Ridge Parkway. If you're Ritz Carlton this is not the property for you. I'm a Birkenstocks kind of girl, so worked out great for me!
We truly enjoyed our week away in this cabin. Our family of five had plenty of room to rest, relax and hang out. At night we used the large dining room table to play dominoes and card games. The house had everything we needed. Our only wish was an updated bathroom but it won’t stop us from renting here again. Thanks for a fantastic week!
This is a great place to spend some time in the wilderness.
The property would be worth 5 stars if it wasn't for a few shortcomings:
* Bathroom definitely needs to be improved. The bathtub is not usable. The shower is rather uncomfortable. On the positive side, there was plenty of hot water, more than enough for our party of 5.
* Trash collection is non-existent in the area, and finding a container in the are is very difficult. This needs to be addressed by the owner.
* Dishwasher, fireplace and wood-burning stove were not operational. We understand that the fireplace and stove were not listed as features in the property description on VRBO, but they were in the photos, so we had certain expectations of the place which were left unmet.
Location of washer and drier is a bit odd (in one of the bedrooms), but we guess that was the only possibility. They functioned flawlessly though, just are a bit noisy if you want to do do a load in the evening.
Other than that, the property is in a fantastic place, easily accessible from the Blue Ridge Parkway; secluded and very quiet. There are stores and other facilities in the nearby village.
Internet was slow (DSL line) but very reliable - it stayed ON all the time. It was enough even for ZOOM video calls!
Owner was very responsive.
We would gladly stay again at the property if we have another chance. We highly recommend it to other VRBO users.
