Hardly a day goes by without seeing all the wildlife this luxurious retreat has to offer after some strolling along the creek or exploring in the Blue Ridge Mountains. This is the perfect place for a get-a-way vacation with the family or friends on 50 acres of private land. The Lakehouse is supplied with amazing mountain spring water from the Artesian well.

This was our third visit to this property! We love it - the serenity, the coziness, the seclusion, everything about it! The host added some new furniture this time: bedding and living room couches, to name a few. It is the perfect atmosphere to absolutely unwind; although, there is abundant cell service and Internet so it’s there if you need it. Each bedroom has its own bathroom and that is one of the many reasons we enjoy it! The host always replies quickly to any inquiry! The perfect getaway!

We had nine guests for the holidays here. This modern style home has a spacious layout for entertaining. The pond in the back yard is beautiful, surrounded by trees. We appreciated the nice hot tub, large dining table, spacious bedrooms, and cleanliness of this home. It is one of the cleanest homes we've ever rented. It definitely met our needs and would recommend it for a relaxing, private getaway with enough space for entertaining a larger group.

This is the first time we've rented a place to stay coming from out of state and this place could not have been more PERFECT!! The owner thought of just about everything anyone could ever want or need. It was very clean and comfortable, relaxing, enjoyable, just PERFECT! Thank you so much for letting us come and stay while we attended family reunion events there in Galax. You made us feel so welcomed and you were so helpful with the checking in and checking out. The family members who came with us loved being there and said they would give it 10 stars review! It was so wonderful, and we hope that you'll let us come again some time. Thank you! Again, it was PERFECT!

Pros and cons

Pros: very clean, spacious and beautiful cabin. Linens, blankets and towels are well stocked. Great hot water and water pressure. Very peaceful, serene, remote and private. Received security deposit back not long after checkout. Cons: after the initial deposit, more detailed information is sent to you, stating that only a “starter supply “ of toilet paper, paper towels and trash bags are provided. No tissues were in the cabin. So be sure to take these items with you. The description states that two of the three bathrooms have a combo tub/shower. But actually, there is only one tub in the cabin. The other two are stand up showers. Also, you will find out that you have to transport your trash up to the beginning of the driveway and place it in trash cans there. This is not a short driveway. It is an unpaved, gravel road that has numerous dips and potholes; causing a very uneven and rough road. We had a new, small SUV and it was dragging branches and broken sticks all along the road. If you choose to come, we highly suggest a truck or four wheel drive. The hot tub came with no instructions on how to use it, so we had to google the owners manual. Then, it only worked part of the time. We only got to use it three times in a week. But it was very nice when it worked! In conclusion, if you can get past the cons, it is a gorgeous cabin with large rooms and beautiful views.

Great Getaway!

Our family wanted a getaway that was far enough away from everything but still close enough if we needed it. The house was exactly as advertised! It was super spacious and beautiful! The pond was fun to fish in while there was a fire going nearby! Lots of wildlife and relaxation! The thermostat was broken when we got there, so there was no heat, but communication with Alex was very consistent and it was fixed the very next morning! Same with the internet, a critter had chewed through the lines so there was no internet connection. We let Alex know and It was fixed the very next day! The property had everything we needed, including space heaters, and more and we will definitely be staying again! Loved it!

Very nice quiet location

When it says secluded that it is. Very nice & quiet to be able to watch the deer around the pond & listen to all the other wildlife. They only thing we thought was they could of brought in a little fill in some spots cause if you would go one side of the driveway in the dark you would of fell off to a deep hole

Storm caused some problems

The home is beautiful and the setting is lovely. A storm went through the first full day we were there and we had no WiFi for the rest of our five day stay and the cell service (Verizon) is not good there. You can get service at the top of the driveway if you get out of the car so directions can load on the phone. The air conditioner never worked, which made sleeping a bit uncomfortable. There were no batteries in any of the remotes. There was very little toilet paper. Luckily one bathroom had a roll, and we were able to divide it up among the other bathrooms and we got by until the next day when we were able to buy more. (I’ve never had to supply my own TP at a VRBO. Maybe this is something new. I wish I had known in advance.) The driveway was in poor shape when we arrived and worse shape after the storm went through and washed it out further. I’m sure Jeep enthusiasts would love it.

Beautiful location and house

Overall the location was beautiful and so was the house. The kitchen was a good size and the deck was very nice. The driveway was a bit treacherous and rough. The single floor was very helpful The house worked well for us with one exception. We were four couples and the one bathroom was between two of the bedrooms with no door, only a curtain which made it pretty awkward. We were also surprised there was no railing on the deck especially since there was a significant drop off. Because we were all adults it wasn't a problem but we could see some potentially serious issues if children were staying here.
