What a treasure of a place! The house was perfect for our family of 11 with plenty of space for everyone! We enjoyed dinner and games around the massive kitchen table before relaxing around the firepit and taking in the peace of country living. At any given time, you would find someone on one of the 4 porches, enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Angie was an amazing host, with thoughtful touches everywhere! It was hard to leave this oasis but we know we'll be back!!!

Incredible, and the vie
We had an amazing stay, this home goes above and beyond to meet all your needs, many before you even know what you need! The home is gorgeous, with space for everyone to sleep, relax, eat and enjoy the view. We loved sitting in all the porches and enjoying the views, usually with a freshly brewed coffee or tea. We stayed here for our son’s VMI graduation, and I would recommend this location to anyone with an event in the area.

If we could rate higher, we would
Our stay was short but absolutely wonderful! We could tell that every detail in the house was well thought out. There were so many bedrooms and bathrooms so we all had plenty of space. We had an abundance of soft towels and the beds were incredibly comfortable. The hosts made sure we had everything we needed and more! We will be looking for a reason to go back to the area just to stay there again
