About this property
Waterfront Cottage with Private Dock on Claytor Lake. Pet Friendly!
Tranquil stone cottage with private dock on the shore of Claytor Lake, where modern updates blend with historic charm. Pet Friendly! Located just 2 miles from the New River bike trail, close to Virginia Tech and Radford, this is the perfect location to enjoy all the Claytor Lake area offers.
With its own private dock for your use, Claytor Lake becomes your playground, offering fishing, kayaking, swimming and beautiful views right outside your front door. Enjoy your coffee on the front deck, watching the sunrise chase away the morning fog. In the evening, settle down at the lakeside fire pit to relax and enjoy the sunset as it tucks in behind the rolling hills.
The interior has been tastefully updated with LED lighting, air conditioning in each room and newer full-size appliances in the kitchen, plus a charcoal BBQ grill area and coffee station for your morning joe.
Located just 2 miles from the nearest New River Bike Trail access point, the cottage is a perfect base-camp for a day of biking along the many tunnels and scenic bridges of the the 57 mile-long rail trail.
Stay with us for Virginia Tech home football games or Radford events too...we're just a short drive along the expressway to either campus.
We look forward to hosting you and your group!
