Enjoy self check-in, and a no contact stay at the Loft! As always the loft is sparkling clean! Every precaution has been taken to ensure a healthy and safe stay. NEW FOALS have arrived! Single night stays accepted Sunday thru Thursday only. A unique opportunity to stay on a working Virginia Certified Thoroughbred horse farm where we breed, raise, and race Thoroughbreds. The newly renovated barn loft hosts unbelievable views of the mountains and our horses out of it's large picture window. Peace and serenity are limitless here on our farm. The farm is less than 5 minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway. 15 minutes to downtown Roanoke. 30 minutes to Smith Mt Lake. 45 minutes to Blacksburg or Lynchburg. 7 miles from exit 150 on I81.

The loft space was created so our adult children would have ample space and privacy when they visited us. It has a small refrigerator as well as a wine cooler. A microwave, toaster and a hot plate with two burners. Pots and dishes. A beautiful farm sink and of course a coffee maker that brews a carafe or a single cup. A desk for writing or computer work. A large sitting area and a 70 inch TV. Wifi access, but due to our location and barn structure it is unreliable. It also houses my art studio. I only work in the studio periodically and certainly not when we have guests. The loft space turned out so very nice that we decide to share it. We hope you experience the same peace and serenity we do here on our farm. Truly a beautiful part of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Not a day goes by that we don't count our blessings!

Please enjoy the entire loft space. The area that has the big picture window with counter and stools is in my studio. I am a sculpture who works in water based clay. Look all you like but please "don't touch" thank you! We also have horse stalls and pasture turnout available if guest are traveling with their horses for a reasonable fee. There is a hiking trail behind the barn that goes to the top of the mountain. My son-in-law runs it! I suggest keeping it to a hike! We hope you enjoy your time here!

If I available during your visit, I am happy to schedule a time to show you around and introduce you to the animals on the farm from a social distance. However, I understand the desire for privacy! You are welcome to wander but never open gates or go inside any of the pastures. Please don't feed the horses as they can nip your fingers and some of our fences are electric. OUCH!
This is a working farm and you have a bird's eye view from the loft. You will undoubtedly see the day to day chores, and hear tractor and horse noises. Due to the structure and location of the loft WiFi is unreliable. The 70 inch TV host over 200 pre-loaded movies of all varieties, but no cable or internet.
Peace and serenity are limitless!
