My husband and I took the weekend to get away and this was the perfect place. It is a trek up the mountain and worth it. Very clean and the hosts were friendly and approachable. Definitely recommend. Just be aware that the drive up is gravel road and at times steep. Best have AWD or 4 WD.

Property and hosts are superb!! We had a great time with a beautiful view. The sunrises were awesome. The drive in a little tricky but once in well worth it and after a time or two not bad at all. House was quiet and secluded. Very nice for time with my wife. We were 1/2 hour from the park, were treated very well and would highly recommend this property to anyone!! It was wonderful !!

Thanks for the great stay! Was in town for wedding events nearby. The road to travel to and from the place was grueling at times but the place was cozy and the views made the experience worth it.

I loved staying here. Steve and Tess were very kind and welcoming. The house had everything you would need and was very clean. The views from the porch were simply amazing. It was wonderful to be able to relax in such a lovely location. I would highly recommend staying here.

My wife and myself both enjoy nature, and this place did not disappoint. Honestly picking the place strictly on the view alone did not disappoint. We looked forward to waking up early for the sun rise and coffee, enjoyed the winding ride up and down the mountain, and counted the minutes until sunset just to watch every evening.

The location is PRIME!! Loved the view of the valley below and the mountain ranges around it. Now I know why its called the Blue Ridge Mountains. Every sunrise was different and was able to view a Strawberry moon! Was also privileged to view a wedding at the winery down the mountain from the property!! Again, I loved it!

I spent a week on a self-meditation retreat. The location and the facilities were beautiful. The view is amazing - the pictures are accurate. Tessy and Steve were great hosts - very helpful. I got to walk part of the Appalachian Trail nearby - saw a bear cross the path. There are wineries nearby, though I did not go to any. Great place for a getaway.

This is a really great little getaway. The views are truly amazing and the property is nice. This is not a posh place, but it is comfortable and clean, perfect after a long day hiking. Note, you will have to drive to get to trails. Overall a great stay and we will definitely go again.

The perfect view & great communication and accommodations from Steve. He also saved us a lot of trouble by helping us get in touch with the right resources for car trouble. Will be back!

The property was nice Great views from a lovely deck if it is not foggy. The drive up and down the mountain is hair raising and i would not recommend doind it at night
Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023

So the most important thing to know about this place is that the drive on the one-lane road up the mountain is a bit of a beast and you should definitely bring snacks, but oh man, it is so worth it. My boyfriend and I spent almost the whole weekend on the patio, just staring out at the vista of the blue ridge mountains. Can’t wait to come back. What a little slice of heaven.

Absolutely stunning views. Being welcomed by Baloo made it even more special. Only thing I would recommend is a 4 wheel drive or not rugged vehicle than my Corolla. Lol. But it made it!

Clean, well-appointed, charming guest house. Our hosts were helpful and responsive. And the views are breathtaking! The road to the guest house is breathtaking for a very different reason! It’s long, rough, and in a couple places combines a very sharp turn with a very steep incline. I navigated it successfully 4 times in my Jeep Wrangler, but it was a little intimidating. The stunning views and lovely guest house are the payoff for such a long climb, but just be prepared to do a little work to get there.

Perfect spot with gorgeous views. Kitchen is more like “kitchenette”- a hot plate, sink, and microwave. Very clean. Access to the park from the property though we didn’t take that option with the limited time we had, it would be fun to try. Otherwise if you want into the park or skyline drive you will be driving for about 45 minutes despite being geographically close. Can’t emphasize enough how gorgeous the view is and how amazing it is to wake up to that.
