Just returned today from our 8 night visit. We enjoyed our stay - I noted other reviews mentioning dated appliances and such; yes some are a bit dated, but to us that really didn't matter - everything works and for us the goal was to get out and see the beautiful autumn scenery. Location is awesome right off the Blue Ridge Parkway. The property is near other homes, but well separated and very quiet. The only thing about staying here that is a challenge is getting up the stone drive to the property. During our visit the drive was very badly rutted - I confess when we first arrived, I probably made some of it worse as our car got stuck a couple of times. After that initial try, I figured out where I needed to be on the drive to stay mostly out of the ruts, made sure I kept moving and didn't stop, and it wasn't much of an issue the rest of the week. A truck or SUV with 4WD would have no problem, so plan accordingly. Thanks very much to the owners for sharing this wonderful home!
