Summary: This home was warm, cozy, and very inviting. Every corner was spotless. Definitely a home away from home! The furniture was comfy, the beds were great, and the view was amazing. We can’t say enough about this lovely home!

Summary: My friend and I stayed at Winnie's Retreat to enjoy a couple days of the Galax Old Fiddler's Convention. We were only there for two nights and barely spent any time in the property but the little that we did, it was fantastic. You're on a mountain overlooking the Piedmont and I swear you can see halfway to the ocean on a clear day. The house is roomy and clean with outdoor areas to enjoy and plenty of space for a family or a group of friends. There's no wifi but a very good cell signal from the house if you need to get online in a pinch. The property is very close to the Blue Ridge Parkway so super convenient. A word of caution, though--my friend and I arrived very late at night on the first night and she needed to look at the online map and follow along as we drove because there's a few odd turns--and even with that we took a few wrong ones. The driveway doesn't look like much more than a path so thankfully there's a sign out front so you know you're in the right place. Recommend arriving during daylight hours if you can. When leaving the house, put your location in to your maps app before you drive away as you'll lose cell signal as soon as you move down the driveway and won't get it back for a few miles. This is out in the country--I mean it. We were looking for a view and some peace. We definitely found it here. We're already talking about staying there again next year. Loved it.

Summary: Our family of six (three generations) loved Winnie's Retreat. We enjoyed the porch the most. What a spectacular view of the Blue Ridge Mountains! We listened to the birds (Eastern Towhee was our favorite) and were delighted to see hummingbirds, deer, and a five-lined skink. But the inside was also delightful; as cozy and comfortable as a grandmother's house, but also updated with modern conveniences. Everything was clean and in working order. The location is rural and peaceful, but in close proximity to Galax (and its BBQ competition) and The Blue Ridge Music Center. A nice touch was the family's story of Winnie's life; we appreciated the house more for it.

Summary: ### Review of Winnie's Retreat I recently stayed at Winnie's Retreat and was thoroughly impressed. The mountain views are truly unsurpassed, providing a stunning backdrop to a comfortable three-bedroom house that, despite being built in 1986, has been exceptionally well maintained. The tranquility of the location is remarkable; the loudest sounds were the calls of birds over the valley. The view includes Pilot Mountain in the near distance and, on clear nights, I believe I could see the lights of Winston-Salem far off. The house features comfortable beds, great cooking utensils, and plenty of space both inside and out. Communication with the owners was easy and quick, making the stay even more enjoyable. I definitely plan to stay here again when I'm in the area.

Summary: We come to the area often and have made this place our second home when possible (until we find our own). It’s homie, clean, quiet and yes a little aged and dated but that’s what we love about it (besides the view and the peace and quiet).

Summary: My husband and I stayed over Labor Day weekend. So happy to find this well kept home in a quiet location just off the Blue Ridge Parkway, less then 10 minutes from Blue Ridge Music Center, where we enjoyed the final summer concert. We brought food and had plenty of kitchen amenities for cooking at home. Back Porch was wonderful for day and night relaxing, with beautiful sunrises, entertaining hummingbirds, deer under the crabapple tree, and Milky Way brightly shining in the dark skies. There’s a short blazed trail from side yard to a pretty stream in the woods. We drove 10 minutes to trailhead for nearby Upper Stewart’s Creek Wildlife Management area and hiked both trail branches for an hour or so, the upper one ending at an old primitive graveyard. The view from home’s back porch overlooks this wilderness area (we spotted the house from trail) so will remain undeveloped and quiet. We did our final section bicycle ride of New River Trail from Draper to Allisonia and back, dining for lunch at fun and delicious Draper Mercantile general store. We also visited Chateau Morrisette Vinyard and listened to their live music on Labor Day. Very pleasant home base, comfortable in every way. Be sure to read the interesting bio of the home’s original builder/owner, who must have been a very strong and brilliant lady!

Summary: The views from this house can't be beat! The home was very clean and had just about anything you could need. It really felt like you were staying at your grandma's house, which we loved. There is a rustic trail down the back to a creek which was great for kids with a sense of adventure. Would definitely stay again.
