Brothers trip

My 2 brothers and I stayed here for a week as a central location to explore the blue ridge parkway. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly not really much to do but we were there to relax so worked well. The property was very clean and well stocked with all the amenities you would expect. View from the deck was beautiful very comfortable place to stay. Currie, the host, was very nice and responded quickly to any questions or concerns we had. Highly recommend this as a getaway for a small group.

A Hidden Gem: Relaxing Mountain Retreat

We recently stayed at this beautiful mountain retreat perched atop a stunning precipice. Access was easy, just off the main road with a short, adventurous drive up a private lane. The house was clean and well-equipped, and we were welcomed with a thoughtful basket and clear instructions for the hot tub, Blackstone griddle, fire pit, and kitchen amenities. While the faucet water had a strong sulfur smell, the host assured us it’s mineral water safe for drinking and bathing. Overall, this is a fantastic place to stay while exploring the area! Highly recommended!

Cabin in the Mountains

What a beautiful location in Independence Virginia. A relaxing cabin on a mountain with a beautiful view. We were able to spend time exploring our properties and explore the towns of Independence and Galax. Currie was great responding to all our emails and questions. A five star stay in all categories and we would definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay at Riverview cabin. The cabin is very clean and well equipped. It is located on a hill and there is a view of the New River from the covered front porch.

Great location just off the main road but nothing that I would call busy. The home is tucked away up in the hills with a lovely view of the New River. This was just a great place to relax.
