Our family of 8 loved this property! We were very impressed with all the provided amenities - our hosts thought of everything to make our stay comfortable and pleasant. We enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere, mountain and pond views, and the fascinating cabin decor. There was plenty of space for us to spread out, but still cozy and welcoming. We had a great time and will highly recommend!

Joe Walker Hollow is a relaxing lodge with numerous features that appeal to everyone. After spending 5 days here, it has become a must-stay when in the area. Our group of 8 was attending finals at the Virginia Horse Center. While the 30-minute drive felt long at first, it was easy to commute and the lodge offered a well-needed relaxing environment after a day of horse riding.

Great stay!

Couldn’t be happier with our stay. The place was exactly as described and we really enjoyed the atmosphere. We didn’t have a ton of time there since we were competing at the Virginia horse center but the time we did have was super relaxing. My son and I even had time for a little fishing. The stars at night are amazing

This was our second time staying at this beautiful property and plan on retruning again in the future. We really enjoy the privacy of this property, the scenic views from the porch, and the fishing pond. At night, the stars are incredible to view when relaxing in the hot tub.

Family gathering

We were in town for my daughter‘s college graduation. I had family coming in from Pennsylvania and Iowa and this property was perfect for our gathering! We went fishing in the pond, roasted hot dogs over the fire, and sat in the hot tub. The lodge was very large and there was more than enough room to socialize and celebrate. The lodge is beautiful and the grounds were peaceful. I highly recommend the lodge!

Absolutely beautiful place! We were looking for a large cabin/lodge style home to stay in with other family members and this place was perfect. Privacy, beauty, conversation pieces, etc. So much to do! The home lies between Staunton & Lexington/Natural Bridge, but there are no shops within a 20-minute drive, so bring lots of provisions. We only stayed for 3 nights but wished we would have booked a longer stay, as we spent several days visiting attractions such as The Safari Park Zoo, Natural Bridge & the huge Factory Antique Mall in Verona on the one rainy day. Hope to visit again next year for a longer stay!

Wedding weekend getaway

My friends and I came out to the area for a wedding and had a great stay at the lodge. The hosts were extremely responsive and the place was perfect for a big group of friends. We appreciated the very simple checkout process and absence of complicated instructions. The location was very remote so it’s difficult to get to things quickly but perfect for a quiet weekend in the mountains.

Very relaxing

Had a very relaxing trip. It was a short stay but the owners went above and beyond to accommodate us. From the morning sun to the night sky and the feel of lodge everything was very relaxing. The pond was the highlight, the kids and us adults all caught fish. The lodge felt very homey and had everything we needed. I would highly recommend this place and am in fact planning my next visit.
