Cabin on the river

My partner, and and our 17 yo daughter enjoyed a week at this cabin. The kitchen was well-appointed, the living room and front porch was very comfortable. The view and access to the New River was fabulous. Even two neighborhood dogs came by for multiple visits.

Short Getaway

We came up for the Christmas Festival in Galax. This was the perfect location and the perfect lil house for our stay. It had everything we needed for cooking and was so cozy and warm. We hope to come back in the Spring and do some kayaking down the New River.

Great River View Stay

Perfect sized house for a couple or small family. Well appointed, loved the porch and river view. Convenient to town. Quiet neighbors and little traffic on road between house and river made for a very peaceful stay, but we were there Sun-Wed, so can’t speak for the weekends.

What a wonderful getaway!

My wife and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary with our children at Craig’s place. It was amazing! Our children had never seen snow and the front yard was covered! We had a relaxing weekend where we played games, had a snow ball fight and just reconnected as a family while celebrating our marriage with who mattered most. We have family moving to the area and are looking forward to booking this home during the summer!

New River & Mountain Views

A little "home away from home" with every convenience you would want! The New River is right in front of the house with views of surrounding mountains. We enjoyed the "jam sessions" of mountain music in nearby towns of Independence and Fries, VA. A tour of the Matthews working farm was a treat. Lots of things to do and places to eat. Highly recommend Fries Dam Steakhouse! Our host was very helpful. Want to go back and stay longer. Room for 6 sleepers. Just bring your toothbrush and clothes!!
