Beautiful home on 30 acre farm, very private with panoramic views in a very rural setting with easy access from I 77 and Hwy 52 off the Blue Ridge Parkway. Large back deck to sit and watch wildlife and relax in the mountain air. This home has evolved from a mobile home to a more conventional house. Our place is clean and very homey but nothing fancy. Special cleaning/disinfecting procedures used due to COVID. New carpet and paint January 2020. A short hike on the property to a mountain stream and picnic area.

This was our second stay at Fancy Gap Mountain Escape. We were celebrating my sister's birthday and when we arrived, there was a "Happy Birthday" banner hanging up in the kitchen. Linda and Michael are exceptional hosts. They were readily available when I had a question or a need. The view is breathtaking. Diamond and Patty, the dogs, are so sweet! We will be back!
Diamond and Patty, the friendly greeters. They are the sweetest and very well behaved!

Linda was fantastic! I didn't even realize I left something behind, but she contacted me so she could send it to me. The property was very quaint and private and a wonderful view of the mountains. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.

Quiet and relaxing

The house has a homey feeling. Beautiful view. Cows in the meadow. Linda is great. She came to visit us and brought her lab. And she loves people to pet and play with her. If you’re looking for solitude but wineries close to visit... this is the place to stay.

Blue Ridge Mountain relaxing

Great views and wonderful hosts. Linda and Michael greeted us on arrival and are available if needed. The rental was very comfortable spacious and well stocked with necessary items and some added bonus items such as coffee, a shout out to them for that. The views from the porch are amazing and with the weather changes you could see a rainbow as we did. While we stayed we visited many spots on the Blue Ridge Parkway, Mt. Airy NC, Galax, Hillsville and Floyd, for music venues, dinning, farmers market, winery, shopping and museums. Enjoyed it and looking forward to returning.

About the host

Hosted by Linda Capers

Host profile image
Michael and I love our dogs and the mountains and want to allow people to travel with their pets. We have plenty of space for dogs to run and explore, off the main highway safe and noise free. We live on the farm but our home still allows people plenty of privacy. We are always available for any questions or concerns. Just a perfect get away setting.
Growing up in West Virginia myself it reminds me of my childhood wonderful country relaxing places. This is our first vacation rental but we purchased a second just three miles away. “Attitude Adjustment”. Check it out also on VRBO.

Why they chose this property

We are located close to Highway, Interstate and the Blue Ridge Parkway but our guest home is on a 30 acre farm. Very private and peaceful. Come and relax the beauty speaks for itself.

What makes this property unique

As we have mentioned before the privacy and homey feeling can not be overstated. Perfect in every season. Hiking to mountain stream on the property. Plenty of outdoor space for families and pets to sit on covered deck or enjoy a bon fire in large outdoor fire pit, wood provided.
