As a family of 5 (toddler, 10yo, and 12yo) I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay to visit the fall colors and hike. It was close to tons of hikes, the creek was a blast (my son caught a trout right away), and the arcade was great for a rainy day. The listing is a little funny because the “fireplace” is just a heater, and the “whirlpool” is just a regular tub. There aren’t any measuring cups and no big soup pot, but other than that the kitchen had what I needed. It was clean and definitely cozy. The Grayson Highlands general store (a mile away) was a delightful visit, and one of our favorite hikes was walking up Briar Run rd (road across the creek) that follows the creek up the mountain. We had a great time and would definitely return to this rental. If you do the VA Creeper Trail, I recommend Blue Blaze bike rentals in Damascus; they went above and beyond to make our day on the trail a success.
