Country quietness
Small creek adjacent from the house. It was only 2 people for the 2 bedroom plus a corner of the livingroom for the singlebed. 5 people could sleep comfortably. Quaint backporch. Kitchen was well equipped for our bring our own meals: mainly frozen dinners and deli meats. Microwave was our heat source. Didnt use the electric stove. Nearby countystore was a delight to visit. Well stock food pantry. Didn't use the store's restaurant. Look great but, we are hikers who want to spend time in the outdoors. Very close to the GraysonHighlandsStatePark but, be comfortable about driving very curvy two lane road to and from the park.

Grayson Highlands pony viewing
The gray cabin was cute, comfortable and conveniently close to Grayson Highlands State Park. I saw many ponies, including famous Fabio. Picturesque Big Wilson Creek is next door to the cabin. The mountains are beautiful. The people at the two general stores are friendly and helpful. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

The Grey Cabin was a perfect "base camp" that we came home to each evening after we hiked in Grayson Highlands. We loved eating outside on the porch and listening to the creek as well as sitting around the fire ring at night. The location is perfect and within a very short drive of the park!

Very cozy cottage. Host was very thoughtful in providing things one would normally forget when on a road trip such as canola oil spray and paper towels. It was a very relaxing area.

Cute little Cabin
Clean, perfect for our family trip to the VA Creeper trail bike ride as well as to Grayson Highlands to hike some of the AT. We didn’t get to use the onsite arcade or movie theater bc you needed change (change machine broken in the arcade) and then it was rainy so we didn’t pull our car around for a movie but still so cool to have right there and for free! Thanks for a great stay!

Perfect family vacation
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.
