Our host’s kindness and attention to detail stood out most. He went above and beyond to help us with everything — from recommending local bakeries for our wedding cake to suggesting nearby hotels for our guests and sharing everything we needed to know about the area. The house itself was spotless, beautifully decorated, and full of thoughtful touches that made our wedding weekend feel extra special.

Wonderful country setting. An older house that has been completely refurbished but retained its original charm. The kitchen and great room have windows all around so you can see the wildflowers and butterflies up close as well as the mountains in the distance. It’s easy to get to and you see no other residences from this house. It has a rooftop deck that’s wonderful as well. Plenty of space for my family, and it was incredibly clean when we arrived.

great house in a great location

The house is beautifully renovated with decor worthy of a Southern Living spread! Gorgeous views of mountains and flower gardens. Pretty pond for fishing. Close to lots of local things to do: Safari Park, Natural Bridge, Blue Ridge Parkway, and quaint downtown Bedford where we spent a rainy day exploring the shops. Easy drive for any type vehicle. No four wheel drive needed. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend staying at this gorgeous home in the mountains! It was clean, cozy, and so relaxing. The massive wrap-around porch with rocking chairs was serene and peaceful. Huge open area in the kitchen and family room allows for entertaining and hanging out while experiencing the beauty all around you. The three bedrooms were very spacious and the rooftop lounge area was enjoyed by all of us. Driving distance to Liberty University is about 35 mins but a beautiful drive. Only thing I would mention is there were a lot of lady bugs inside upon arrival but that is to be expected this time of year and was easily taken care of and did not alter our weekend at all. Host was easy to get hold of. Definitely would stay here again and hope to soon.

Amazing house in a stunning setting. It is rare to stay at a VRBO where the pictures truly don’t do the house and location justice, but this one exceeded our expectations on all levels. From the incredible kitchen, to the multiple wildlife viewing areas, to the expertly curated furniture, comfortable beds and entertaining areas, this house delivers a premium experience. The serene, pastoral setting with Terrapin Mountain as a backdrop is just stunning….we have stayed up and down the Blue Ridge Mountains, and it doesn’t get better than this. The hosts are friendly, easy to reach and definitely go the extra mile to ensure their guests are happy and well pampered. Highly and thoroughly recommended, and we will definitely be back!

I left a piece of my soul at this property on the front porch. Lovely location and the place was spotless and updated. We will be returning. Must rock on the porch again to the whisper of the weeping willows and see the stars at night—the view of wildflowers while you wash dishes in a five-star kitchen is unparalleled. If you choose this property, you aren’t choosing a house for its proximity to a Walmart or the many choices for food delivery. You are choosing a first class rental for tranquility and natural beauty with finishes that also make your bougie side happy.

A slice of Heaven

Rest, relaxation with top notch care! Pulling up to the house was like a picture in a postcard! Then walking in and seeing the class of 2025 decorations was the cherry on top!!! Jeffery was quick to respond and answer any questions we had. Our only suggestion would be to add blinds to the upstairs bedrooms but outside of this was beyond perfect and we can’t wait to come back soon!

Amazing Mountain Retreat

This house was everything we could have asked for and more. The location was amazing. It was secluded at the foot of the mountains, which made for beautiful sunrises and sunsets. It was quiet and peaceful. It was also centrally located to area attractions, such as, natural bridge, VA safari park, Lynchburg, and the natural bridge caverns. The house was very spacious and extremely well appointed especially the kitchen. There was plenty of room to spread out and relax. Having a house of this caliber certainly made our trip much more enjoyable.

A magnificent stay

We had a fantastic time at Terrapin Mountain! We felt like we were living in a photo shoot for an magazine. Bright, light and cheerful. The huge kitchen had many thoughtful extras, from the soda stream to the well stocked chef tools. Every window beautifully framed the stunning flowers or mountains. We enjoyed the second floor deck overlooking the pastoral scene, both day and night, as the stars were so clear and bright. The happy cows even had adorable calfs that frolicked and played. The two bathrooms were luxurious, and both had stand alone soaking tubs, as well as elegant showers. The sheets were so soft, and the bed itself was perfect. The WiFi was sufficient to run our predownloaded Netflix shows. This house was so lovingly remodeled. The blend of old and new was harmonious. While there were only two of us this trip, this house could handle a larger group easily. This is a rural area, so we would encourage you to plan your meals more than you would elsewhere, as it is a bit of a trek to a grocery store. The hosts were terrific too. They were very responsive when an issue came up, and fixed it with great speed and care. We were very impressed. We look forward to returning with friends soon!

A beautiful home in a quiet location

A group of girlfriends and I stayed at this home from 9/30/22-10/2/22. It was the weekend that the remnants of the hurricane hit our area and it was raining non-stop. But that did not damper our stay one bit. The house was perfect for being stuck inside all weekend. It's large, so everyone had ample space to be alone if needed, lounge, dance, play games, etc. The kitchen was by far my favorite part of the home. It is a chef's dream! Everything you think you might need, you'd find there. Even things I don't have in my own home. And that gigantic island in the middle of the kitchen was my favorite place to gather with my friends. Sitting on the patio or the deck, soaking in the tubs, or staring out at the mountains (or cows!!!) off the deck was just so serene. I did explore some of the grounds while wearing rain boots and a poncho and it's just beautiful. I highly recommend this place! You won't be disappointed.

Great ... until something goes wrong

Nicely renovated 18th century farmhouse in a great rural location. Spacious and airy with lots of windows and a rooftop deck. Kitchen well-stocked with dishes, pots and pans, with new appliances. Lots of couches and chairs and a big dining table. We contended with an increasingly strong foul odor throughout the weekend we were there, apparently coming from a taped-up refrigerator in the entryway mud room. It was noticeable at the dining table adjacent to the mud room and we could not find air fresheners or candles to mitigate the smell. I attempted to contact the owner (through the "We're always here for you ... 24/7" customer service I paid for) but did not get a response until we had returned home. A disappointing downside to an otherwise enjoyable weekend away.

I have never used the word amazing so many times ! From the minute you pull up to the farmhouse and walk up to the front door it’s already amazing . Once you step inside it’s just a beautiful view to take in . Everything is clean and perfect . Loved the welcome basket of treats and loved the book of information about the house , restaurants , hiking and other attractions . The field in the back and watching the cows ! The upstairs deck - amazing ! The company that handles the renting - made everything easy and totally stress free ! Will definitely tell others about this house and hope someday to return . A most peaceful place to be !

Dream stay for hikers, bikers, kayakers, and chefs

This beautiful property sits at the foot of Terrapin Mountain. Avid hikers can walk out the door and walk to the trailhead. (Be forewarned: it is a serious hike!) Any anyone can enjoy Terrapin views from the deck, living room, or kitchen. Speaking of kitchen, this house is a chef's dream. It wasn't just well-stocked; it is better outfitted than our home kitchen - and we love to cook! We brought our ingredients so that we didn't have to find a grocery store - and feasted. This home is 5 miles from the lowest point on the Blue Ridge Parkway, where it crosses the James river. I didn't look for drop-in points for kayaks since we didn't have ours with us, but imagine that there must be nearby locations. We'll plan to kayak next time we come back. The nearby hiking is excellent. Otter Creek Trail (at the James River crossing) is short, easy, and beautiful. Thunder Ridge (a few miles south on the Parkway) is moderate, and offers great views at the trail head and from Apple Orchard Mountain. Speaking of Apple Orchard Mountain, it is the highest point on the Parkway - which means that cyclists can do the 12 mile ascent from the lowest point on the Parkway to the highest point - and then descend again. The road is beautiful, and there are many vistas along the way: highly recommended. A few final comments on the house: It is well-designed for rest and retreat. The ONLY television in the house is upstairs facing a love seat. The beautiful dining table can comfortably seat 12. The living room is bathed in light by floor-to-ceiling windows - perfect for reading. The kitchen is open, inviting, and also bathed in light by counter-to-ceiling windows. The rooftop deck has beautiful views of Terrapin Mountain. Why would anyone want to sit in front of a screen when surrounded by this beauty? My hat is off to the designer/decorator.

We really enjoyed our stay on the farm. It was beautifully decorated and well stocked with everything you need and more. The pictures are exactly as the property is. Lovely. Lots of things to do ion the surrounding towns if you don’t mind a 20-30 minute country drive. The cows on the property were fun to watch. The top deck was a great place to catch a glimpse of the milky way and abundant stars. We’ll be back for future stays to enjoy with more family.
