7 of us visited for a 3 day weekend. Chose this place for the views and mountain experience. Did not disappoint. The house is right off the road with beautiful landscaping, surrounded by corn and cows. Plenty of room for people to space out and enjoy some down time.
The house is as expected. One bedroom was a bit small, but worked fine for the single sleeper. Great view from the anterior room upstairs. All kitchen necessities present. The hot tub seemed very clean. Unable to use the gas fire pit (maybe user error) but had a nice fire in the wood pit. Other games available in and outside, as well. Nice, clear view of the sky at night. We got to enjoy the sunset over the mountain.
The winding roads and varying crops/livestock give plenty to look at on the drive in. Though the closest town, Sparta, is teeny, it had enough to do for the day. We were lucky to come the weekend of the bluegrass festival, which was nice to see. We ate at the Muddy Creek, taco truck, and pizzeria. All good experiences. Surprised to find a tienda with great supplies for homemade tacos. It pretty much shuts down on sunday. Elkin is a larger town about a 50 minute drive from the home with a few wineries along the way. We stopped at 2 that were friendly and had fairly good wine. Elkin has a brewery with good food for lunch. We went on Sunday so missed some of the shopping that may be available other days.
Overall, a great location. Highly recommend for a quiet, off the beaten path stay.
