Privacy and Relaxation on the James River!!
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (4)
"A really charming and quirky house, perched on an overlook above a bend in the James river. Very friendly host, nice grounds, and plenty to explore in the surroundings. We did some outdoor grilling and a fire in the pit on a very starry night. The kids were disappointed that the hottub wasn't working that weekend, but there were plenty of games and some swings nearby to keep them occupied."

"What a wonderful place to getaway and relax. From the amazing decor, to the colorful lighting, to the peaceful setting, there’s nothing to not like about this little piece of heaven. Each time we traveled down the road we loved seeing all the wildlife and farm animals. Just up from the cabin there is an awesome winery that we tried out. Make sure to get the charcuterie board along with your tasting. Just down from the house there is a little road side stand with yummy fresh veggies, jams,...

STUNNING NEW RIVER CABIN! New gravel Rd. EASY for ANY car to get to the cabin.
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (15)
"This house is really nice and a perfect spot for 2 adult couples. Bedrooms with their own bathrooms on either side of the cabin, a beautiful overlook balcony of the river, and huge windows everywhere to take in the scenery. The owner was really nice and easy to communicate with via text and gave helpful instructions to find the place. It is far off the main road so I suggest traveling in an SUV or a car well off of the ground. My only star taken was for the accuracy of the listing as it says...

"Such a lovely and cozy house. We were in town to visit our college student and this housed all of us perfectly! The kitchen is fully stocked making meal preparation easy. With 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, there was room for everybody. The beds were all comfortable and the reclining sofas & chair were relaxing after a day of hiking! Plenty of good movies on hand (or bring your own) plus enough channels available if you’re in the mood for some tv watching! Board games & cards are also on hand....

"Such a nice property! We especially loved the outdoor spaces - deck, fire pit area, and the bench beside the creek. Quiet and peaceful! Very close to the trailhead for the A.T., which we loved. Go north to climb Three Ridges or south to climb The Priest. The bed was super-comfy too! Great place to unwind."
