Beautiful and big getaway in the VA mountains
The property was even better than the pictures and description! It was very spacious, clean, very well-stocked, and picturesque. The kitchen was large, and we even had fresh eggs and a bottle of wine waiting for from our hosts. The bedrooms and bathrooms were great. It was wonderful to drink coffee and tea outside on the porch with the woods and mountains in front of us. We would recommend this property highly and will definitely book again when we return.

Such an enjoyable property and stay! This may have ruined the beach for me. Top of the line and my favorite VRBO I’ve ever stayed.
