About the host
Hosted by Pat Vaughn

We purchased the home and farm from family in 2003. Since that time we have spent most of our efforts on the farm, rebuilding fences, building barns, etc. In 2015 the time came to remodel the cottage. What fun and treasures we found. The headboard in 'Hidden Quiet', on of the upstairs bedrooms, was the original door between the living room and the kitchen. The platters on the wall in the dining area were old trays found in the attic. You'll even find two of the old windows from the house that are now beautiful works of art, thanks to our friend Cappy Spangler. We tried to reuse as much of the furniture as we could. So, with a little elbow grease, paint and fabric, we are pleased with the results. Overall the restoration was a journey back through Garver and Minnie's lives. A gift we will always treasure.
Why they chose this property
Est. 2015 -- Welcome to Buffalo Mountain Getaway, a vacation cottage nestled near the Buffalo Mountain in Floyd County, VA. Stay in our beautifully decorated cottage and enjoy a little taste of the country. Situated on a real working beef farm, you're most likely to have a few of our residents checking you out as well. We operate the Buffalo Mountain Cattle Company, specializing in Chiangus Beef. Our farm is home to our cow-calf operation and was the original home place of Garver and Minnie Vaughn, grandparents to owner, Bradley Vaughn. Bradley farms full time, taking care of more than 600 acres of land and 85 breed cows. Most of the cows have names and though they are born to breed, they are also family. A few of our favorites include Minnie, Socks, Spot, America and of course Ms. Hazel, named after Bradley's mother. We have 4 bulls, all of Chiangus Purebred stock. Danicus, Bolagrius, Leonitus and Fletcher live a life of leisure and are fairly calm. They can be a little cantankerous during breeding, but for the most part are gentle giants.
