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.

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.

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.

This was our second stay at Fancy Gap Mountain Escape. We were celebrating my sister's birthday and when we arrived, there was a "Happy Birthday" banner hanging up in the kitchen. Linda and Michael are exceptional hosts. They were readily available when I had a question or a need. The view is breathtaking. Diamond and Patty, the dogs, are so sweet! We will be back!

Beautiful vacation spot

This property was a perfect spot for a fall getaway. It was supplied with all we needed. It was clean and ready for us when we arrived and you can't beat the view from the porch. Our only issue was that the photos showed a front door that was a level entrance which is why we chose it. This door was not accessible due to the furniture placement in the living room. We were traveling with two people who don't handle stairs well so coming and going was a bit of an ordeal. Something to consider if you need to avoid stairs. If stairs aren't a problem, this is your next vacation spot.
