The space
The Squirrel's Leap is located in a quiet community near Dehaven Park on Claytor Lake. It does not have direct lake access or view of the water. Instead, The Squirrel's Leap offers views of a well-maintained cow pasture and a private backyard full of trees.

This two-bedroom, one-bathroom bungalow, with an open living room and kitchen, makes use of every inch of its floor plan. It is a complete living space in a 1970's bungalow on 1/3 acre in Southwest Virginia near Claytor Lake.

Radford University and Virginia Tech parents will find this an amazing space to visit your young adult student while giving them the space or the option to get away from university life. Radford University is about 30 minutes away while Virginia Tech is about 45. The house is about 10 miles away from Interstate 81 and any stores. Once off I81, the drive is beautiful and winding, and we recommend stocking up on food and supplies before arriving, as the trade-off for a quiet, beautiful location is a lack of conveniently located places to buy necessities. If you are looking for a country get-away, or don't mind taking a scenic route to visit Radford or Blacksburg, then this is the place for you!
