Review

Enjoyed by all! We left a hatchet down by the fire pit. Did you find it and could I pay to have you ship it to me? It has some sentimental value to the owner, otherwise I would not ask.

An Outstanding Place!

We where here for 3 days with extended family to attend a wedding locally. Our host was prompt in responding to all of our questions and inquiries before arrival. Our party consisted of 6 adults and 4 children. With children ranging in age from 3 to 16, there was plenty to keep their attention, from the game room to toys, puzzles, and fishing in the picturesque pond with fountain behind the house. The kitchen was well equipped for the large meals we prepared, and there was ample seating for additional guests we had over during our stay. All of the bedrooms were large and comfortable. The outdoors around the property was lovely for strolling or going on an extended hike along the horse trail and stream that extends far behind the property. House is in a gated community about 25-30 minutes from Sparta. Recommend doing grocery shopping before arrival. We rate our experience here as exceptional, and would not hesitate to recommend!

Beautiful home, beautiful location, beautiful memories!

What an amazing vacation for our family! We enjoyed this beautiful home & property so much & can't recommend it enough. It was so spacious, yet so cozy. The home was super clean & just had so many unique touches. Lots of seating in the kitchen & family room. Large bedrooms & bathrooms. Large, well-equipped kitchen (& a grill on the deck!). We enjoyed fishing in the pond, walking the trails, smores at the fire pit, fun competition in the game room, & just hanging out on the porch. Our family enjoyed this home more than any we have ever stayed in & we made so many wonderful memories. Tana was a wonderful host and was so responsive to our questions. Running Doe Lodge will likely be an annual tradition now for our family.

Perfect week away from stress of life

We've stayed at this property 5 times now. First 4 times with previous owner and once with new owners. We love being away from normal life stress. This place is extremely remote and in beautiful area. Very happy with the little updates and changes. Hope to visit again. Wish bob (Giant catfish) was still in pond. This is first time we havent seem him. Plenty of fish and turtles in the pond. We spent most of the week relaxing fishing the pond with a competition on who would catch the most.

Great Cabin Vacation

This cabin is one of a kind. Three floors where each of my two sons had their family and my wife and I on main level. Very clean and accommodating. Nice fish pond where we caught and released many fish. Had nightly fire in fire pit. Took my golf cart and the grandkids enjoyed the evening rides throughout the community seeing many deer. No close neighbors. I highly recommend this property for a relaxing, yet adventurous vacation.

Scenic Wilderness Escape: Serene & Nature-Rich

This place was amazing. It had enough rough for our extended family. The children enjoyed the game room tremendously. We loved the view and everyone having their own room. The place was beautiful for Christmas time. I would definitely recommend anyone looking for a place not located in town to pick this house. The WiFi was super helpful because we did not have great service with our phones, but that’s what a vacation is for to get away with minimal distractions. Wildlife was around every night and morning.

Great cabin!

Super cabin for 3-4 couples and kids. We had 3 couples and the cabin was great. Great layout, amenities and comfort. Plenty of large beds and sitting space. Beautiful meadow next to house to watch wildlife. Diner at the Corner Market nearby was very good. We rode down Creeper Trail one day and hiked up Mt Rogers the next day. Sat by fire in the evenings. Nearby Red Dog Bistro is closed on Monday and Tuesday, so the diner is only place nearby to eat. Well equipped kitchen at the cabin if you want to cook. We’ll be back!

Annual Mountain Trip

We’ve been coming to the Blue Ridge Mountains for years and this is one of the best cabins we have stayed in. Lots of sleeping areas and beds. Cabin was well stocked and had everything we needed. The neighborhood was beautiful and we enjoyed exploring outside. Game room with pool/ping pong table, foosball table and pac man game was a big hit. Thanks for a great stay! We will definitely be back next year! Thanks

Our Family Getaway to Celebrate a Birthday

We enjoyed our stay at Running Doe Lodge. The Lodge far exceeded our expectations with the cleanliness of the cabin, comfort of the beds, how well it has been maintained, and the attention to detail that the owners make to be sure the experience at their Lodge is the very best. There is plenty of space for a large family gathering and so much to do inside the cabin and outside! We look forward to booking again for our next family gathering. Thank you so much as we made so many wonderful memories during our stay. The Moddle & Strickland Families

Beautiful getaway

Our group of four couples have been taking trips together for twenty years. This year it was my turn to choose where and everyone agreed it was the best location and house yet! Everything was spotless, we had a well stocked large kitchen, and bedrooms everywhere! The living room seating is cozy and very comfortable with a great selection of books and the game room with ping pong, pool table and Pac-Man kept us up way too late! Our favorite thing to do throughout the day and evening when we were at the house was sitting on the porch and enjoying the views, especially of the pretty stocked pond and fire pit. Our group even got some fishing time in! There are so many fun towns to explore and Tana and David gave great recommendations but you may want to stay and relax at the cabin. We did enjoy the Virginia Creeper Bike Trail and West Highlands. The photos for this house are good on the site but you have to see it to appreciate the charm and beauty of the location. My husband and I decided to book it for our next family’s vacation-our five grandchildren will love it!

Everyone loves this lodge.

My entire family was pleased with this lodge. It was spacious, beautifully appointed, well furnished and had a place and more for all of us to sleep. The basement was great for privacy for the kids to get away and for their parents to be close by for sleeping. We loved the decor too.
