Great property, and well maintained.

Wouldn't have minded a better view, but the cabin was exactly as described, working, and well-stocked!

Cabin vaca

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. There were plenty of activities to enjoy at the cabin such as cornhole, jumbo jenga, and others. It was quiet and fairly secluded. Hot tub was enjoyable as well. We enjoyed the fire pit in the evenings as the sun went down. Beautiful views from the deck.

Amazing getaway

Truly enjoyed the overall stay. Private, quite, clean, well cared for. The view from this property is beautiful. Fire pit at night. Porch upstairs with grill and perfect for sitting and reading.

Great place for peace?

This place was beautiful! The cabin was out in the middle of almost nowhere and very peaceful. We loved the view! And you could see all of the stars!! The master bed was comfortable and we didn't want to get out of it most days! The hot tub was perfect! The kitchen was well equipped and we cooked daily after a trip to the Food Lion and Walmart. We will definitely stay here again when we come visit family!

Great!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A little remote, but that’s what we wanted. Hot tub was perfect! House was cozy and clean, downstairs is heated with small space heaters, but got warm very quickly. Stairs are steep, so might not be great for elderly people, and would recommend bringing a baby gate for small children. Management very responsive when gas logs didn’t work.

Cabin

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The 2 chairs in kitchen area are broken. Unable to use fireplace.oven was greasy and had to clean before use. Refrigerator leaks water on food. Dishwasher was hard to start the selector was very hard to turn. Washer and dryer to small for cabin comforters. Lamp table in TV area is broken and very unstable. Bathroom shower in master bedroom was not hot at all. Luke warm at best. We still enjoyed ourselves and made the best if it. It was a getaway from technology. I would rate a 5 out if 10. Hot tub was great. I would not rent this cabin again unless upgraded.

River Bend Hills

We had a very good experience. Property was as advertised. We owned a cabin nearby for several years and it was convenient to go back to our old stomping grounds. The only thing that might be an issue is there are only 3 chairs for the table. As the home easily sleeps 6 this could be an issue. I had seen it in another review and had taken a bag chair so the 4 of us could eat together. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots and utensils.

Decent place to stay

Cabin has a nice setting, but can use a lot of tlc and updates. Bees nest in the chairs and porch. Squirrel or some kind of animal in the attic area. AC unit only worked for part of one day, then cabin heated up into the 80’s. Lucky for us it was very cool nights and were able to open up all of the windows to help cool it down to sleep. Fire pit area is very off level and chairs were dangerous to sit in as they are falling apart. Hot tub partially works. View off of the front porch is nice. Cabin is small but comfortable. Location is decent it’s not too far of a drive to Grayson Highands or Jefferson for restaurants.

Weekend Get Away

We had a great time in this secluded mountain cabin. The cool master bedroom had a mattress better than any 5 star hotel anywhere. Sitting on the front porch and watching the setting sun go over the mountain was breath taking and helped rekindle the romance in a 20 plus year marriage. We definitely will make this trip again.

We had a wonderful time!

A few things that need to be addressed: Upstairs tub isn't draining properly. dining chairs (2) need bolts tightened. We tried, but had no tools with us. Thank you for a relaxing get away!

VA Creeper trip with girl friends

The property was as described, very cozy. I wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the hot tub and outdoor amenities. Location is remote and I don’t recommend arriving after dark if you are unfamiliar with the roads in the area. Great weekend!

Needs some work

The cabin itself was nice. The hot tub was nice and we liked the location but the washer did not work the outside stairs were steps and needed to be replaced. They were dangerous I tripped over them more than once. The gas grill was rusted disgusting and falling apart needs to be replaced.

The cabin itself was nice but the housekeeping was very poorly done

I thought the cabin was alot closer to things to do. The cabin was very poorly cleaned especially when they charge a cleaning fee on the bill when you rent the cabin.

Undecided

Some of the features were as described. Steps both inside and outside house were steep, so be careful especially if carrying anything up or down with vision impaired by bulky items. Disappointed by very small kitchen with only 3 chairs. If you want room for the family to sit, eat, play games together, this is not your cabin. We had a family of 4 and one of us had to sit on the cooler we brought all week to eat. Outside, yes there are enough chairs to watch the mountains, but again, fire pit with only 2 chairs. Fire pit and picnic table on a downhill, so not comfortable to sit outside with snacks and drinks. When we attempted to eat at picnic table (because we were trying to enjoy family meals), smoke from fire kept blowing in our faces, so we were not enjoying it. The property is semi private, neighbors are close. View is nice in the morning & after the sun sets behind the mountain. There is about a 3-4 hour window when the sun beams on the front porch & you can’t enjoy it. Watch trying to open front door, too, you can burn your hand on the door handle. Also, it is much cooler in basement & upstairs is warmer, so it is a bit of an adjustment between the two. Use the little heater in the bathroom downstairs it helps! The beds were very comfortable though, thank you for that! The cabin is solid, though, and sound between the floors was not an issue like other cabins we have stayed in before. Hot tub was fine, just got cloudy towards end of the week so it would have been nice to utilize it all week but we were nervous to use it after the water was a bit cloudy. Would have been nice to be able to shock it to clear it up. There is a very friendly road living under the hot tub that comes out in the evening, be nice to it. And a black racer snake that we saw once too. He’s a good snake to have around. Don’t harm him either, please, if you see him. Crumpler is very small, and I would say about 30-45 minutes outside of many things in the area to do. West Jefferson has a cute downtown area and the Home Slice Pizza place was awesome. The local kayak and tubing place right over the cool on lane bridge was awesome. Nice people, and good experience there. Very close to New River, but could not find any close hiking. So drove usually 30-60 minutes depending to hike trails. Would be nice if the cabin had a little local book with stuff in the area to do. Overall, I would have given the cabin 3.5 stars. Thank you anytime in NC is 👍🏻

Lovely cabin in the woods

3 friends and I had a lovely long weekend at this cabin. Everything was as described. The hot tub was nice in that it was not over chlorinated like most rentals with hot tubs. Our only complaints: There was inadequate TP and no extra anywhere to be found No linens for the pull out couch in the media room No travel toiletries in the bathrooms - just soap It’s a beautiful area and we hope to come back!

Serene

We really enjoyed the property. It rained all weekend but the cabin was the perfect place to just read and relax. The only problem was the gas grill. One leg and door was broken and it was a pain to light, so we did without.

Beautiful Cabin!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Cabin was very clean. The only problem we had was the fact that we asked if we could check in earlier than 4, because we were going to be in the area sooner than the original check out time of 4pm and we were told that we could check in “anytime after 2pm”. We arrived at 2 and the cleaning people were still there. We talked to the lady and they said they were about done, and that turned into an hour and a half wait, so we got to check in 30 mins early.
