Summary: Clean, well- maintained, spacious and comfy. Me, my wife and little yorkie felt right at home. Felt good farm vibes and I enjoyed just watching the river go by and remembering canoeing down that river more years ago than I have toes and fingers. The kind of hosts you hope for and are grateful for. Would definitely come back as lots of Mother Nature blessings are within easy reach along with a friendly real coffee shop in town. Three very satisfied visitors.

Summary: Owner & family are super nice! Our stay was fine but we won’t stay again. :( It’d be helpful for families to understand the layout of the home before deciding to stay. In order to access the 1 bathroom, you have to walk through either of the 2 bedrooms. There is no central air which is fine, except one of the listed sleeping spaces has no window fan or ceiling fan so it was extremely hot. The provided fan (after asking) was tiny & didn’t fit the outlets. The ac unit in the 2nd bedroom crackles & disrupts sleep. The kitchen was missing some key items for simple cooking. And it’s good for families to understand that access to the river is not directly across from the house. It’s down the road. The trundle bed in the living room is super squeaky. Finally, I don’t think the house was cleaned by a professional. The owner is super nice so I’m sure the family does the cleaning but given the cost, it’s disappointing to find left over hairs, etc. So it wasn’t terrible but if we had known some things we wouldn’t have stayed there.

Summary: We loved our weekend away at the cottage! My partner and I loved spending time in the rocking chairs, watching the water beetles on the river, and stargazing by the fire pit. We stopped next door at the Shoal Creek Horse Adventures and had a wonderful time with the horses. We are definitely considering returning for a future visit.

Summary: Our visit to Independence was the third to SW Va. over the last three years, the others being Hillsville and Dugspur.This property checks all of the boxes if you are seeking a getaway from the big city. We enjoyed the silence, with nothing other than birds and the distant sounds of the New River to listen to.The town of Independence has a couple of restaurants, including Ciro’s Pizza, where we had excellent pizza and a calzone. Top notch !The communications with the property owners was excellent(thanks Lyndsie),and we had the pleasure of meeting her husband Darren who was super nice and personable.We will be back, as we barely touched the surface of all there is to do and see in this beautiful part of Virginia.
