Very cute cabin close to Sparta. Location was great. Despite other reviews my GPS found this place with no problem. Aside from low stock of paper goods (which really wasn't an issue as we got more in town) it was great. Yes floors are creaky. It’s an old house. It is part of the charm. Will definitely stay here again.
We booked this cabin somewhat last minute for a quick getaway to see some family. Location was right outside Sparta and an easy commute. Property was very clean and had all the basics. Really enjoyed the remote feel of the cabin and the kids enjoyed playing near the river. Overall will likely be back if the need arises.
We had family together to attend a graduation just ten miles away. It was so great to have the quiet, serene atmosphere and still be so close to town. The location of the cabin was amazing!
Loved our stay here. Beautiful property and everything was clean and well maintained. Loved having a river close by for fishing and kids had plenty of space for playing and riding their bikes.
My family had an excellent time in sparta. This cabin is in a great location of Sparta. Very private and the creek by the house was very peaceful listening to from the porch. Some small walking trails on the property too. We had everything we needed in this cabin. Would definitely stay here again.
The cabin was as described. Very pretty property with a river running around the property. The cabin had an ample supply of towels and cooking utensils. Cabin was located close to downtown Sparta with a few restaurants, a grocery store, and shops.
Extremely clean, plenty of dishes . Bring your Own Roku box if you chose to watch television. TV’s are there but service was taken out due to Hurricane Helene. Not all windows have blinds. But bathrooms & bedrooms do have them. Owner most kind. Cornhole on site to play outdoor games. Perfect for families and those traveling with a pet. Owner provided toilet paper, paper towels, and map of area. She can also provide a copious list of area restaurants to dine at. Fireplace lovely. Gas equipped as outdoor grill also gas equipped. Outdoor area to picnic under cover.
This cottage was close to what we needed - grocery, restaurants, wedding venue, and even a cute little brewery! Our kids loved exploring the property - the cottage itself and the stream and trails around. The manager promptly responded to our noticing a nest on the property after one of our children got stung - we were very impressed! The only negative was finding a pair of woman’s underwear tucked in the couch cushions.
This was exactly what we needed. Everything from booking to leaving was as easy as it gets. Everyone was very easy to talk to, great people. Thank you so much for sharing your home. Next time we are out this way i know we have an awesome place to stay!
We wanted to get away for some rest and relaxation. This was accomplished! We fished, played in the river, enjoyed watching the deer, and explored. Our fur baby also had a great time! He especially loved all the sights and sounds nature had to offer. We had an amazing time! We will hopefully return soon. Host, Susan was great!
If you are looking for a peaceful setting and love nature, this is the place for you. Not a lot of frills, just your basic comforts for sitting out by the fire and listening to the river. From inside you can still commune with nature and watch the trees and stars from the wonderful high windows. Would not be really good for six adults (not enough seating) but great for four. We hope to go back again and again!

Nice getaway
This was a nice place for what we needed it for, a place to sleep while in town for a wedding. Unfortunately the location “pin” on the map show is not correct. When we booked it, it is pinned off willow lane which is where many of our friends live, which is why we chose it. This cabin is in fact across the river and about a 8-10 minute drive away from where our friends were. This was the entire reason we chose this cabin and we didn’t realize until we arrived that the location wasn’t where it said it was. That just needs to be corrected. Otherwise, all else was fine.
This review is a bit late as we stayed there in April. The location was fantastic. The cabin is remote without being remote. If you are looking for a cabin on the river, you can't find a better spot. The cabin is surrounded by the river on 3 sides. We caught brown, rainbow and brook trout. We definitely recommend this rental and look forward to renting it again. Susan is very helpful and a great host.
We were in Sparta to attend the Blue Ridge Fiber Festival...which was an awesome event...in an awesome little town. Everyone was so friendly and kind. The cabin was the icing. There was a bit of hiking and fishing and the sound of the rain on the roof...so relaxing. From the porch you can see and hear the river. So thankful to have found such a beautiful place.
This was our 2nd time staying at this cabin and it was just as good as the 1st. The location is fantastic. The river is on 3 sides of the cabin. Walk out the door and start fishing. The town of Sparta is just a short distance away, so it is easy to run into town for supplies. Susan, the owner, is great to work with. We highly recommend this rental.
We had a great time. We thought we had a gas grill as shown on the deck but it was not hooked up. Frying pan worked out fine. It was very peaceful and quiet. We will be back for sure!

Disappointed
No toilet paper, no soap, no Kleenex, no instructions on how to turn on heat or gas logs, broken lamp in one of bedrooms, bathroom door would not lock.
Me and 5 girlfriends stayed here this last weekend and we couldn't have enjoyed it more. Susan was a wonderful host and her father built an adorable cabin. Even with no central AC we were quite comfortable as it gets cool at night and the living room and master window units kept us good.
I felt just like I was on an episode of Whiskey River. The Little River wraps around the house with great easy access just around the corner to sit your beach chairs right in the middle of it and hangout for hours like we did. We also enjoyed just sitting on the porch listening to the river run too. The town of Sparta is so quaint and charming yet we found several little night entertainment spots that were great!. Had plans to tube the New River while we were there but storms didn't cooperate, so that was disappointing, but we loved this place so much we are def coming back.
