Relaxing secluded w/HOT TUB woods & wildlife

This 2 bedroom 2 bathroom home with CA King beds in each bedroom is perfect for a couples retreat or a small family. Enjoy 8 acres of trees that backs up to the George Washington National Forest, so wildlife is quite literally at your doorstep! Watch deer from the hot tub, take in the peaceful surroundings with a cup of coffee, or play a board game together! We have everything you could need, just pack your flip flops for the hot tub! The city life will melt away as you drive along Buffalo Creek right outside Lexington. The drive is scenic and winding past farm houses, woods and gorgeous views of the river and falls. This is a place tucked up in the mountains of Lexington but you are still about 30 minutes from many major attractions. The property is heavily wooded so it feels like your own oasis. If you want to be a 5 minute walk from restaurants and coffee shops - this is not for you. If you want to spend an hour watching deer, listening to birds, seeing stars at night and don’t mind driving 20 minutes to restaurants through gorgeous mountain roads, or get a local perspective on places to eat or hike - then we welcome you! There is plenty of time to have an adventure here in the mountains! Stay warm by the electric fireplace, fire pit outside or the hot tub! See the Blue Ridge Parkway or Skyline Drive in Shenandoah National Park this Fall! Or just relax with the nature around the home - both can be done in a day! Fall and winter are coming so why not let the dog run around the woods, try a new hiking trail, or even sleep on the front porch while you read a book. The weather is great in the mountains to be outside in the sun without the heat! When was the last time you had a chance to unplug from your busy “city life” and step back to a simpler time? When was the last time you felt like you relaxed and truly connected with another person? We fully understand the hustle and bustle of regular life. There’s so much coming at you that what you really need is time away. Time to recharge, visit nature, reconnect with the person you are before all the stress of modern life wore your down. We only get one shot at this life, so why not treat yourself to some much needed down time to relax and reconnect. Even if you need to reconnect with yourself, just sit and watch the wildlife, the stars, read a book from cover to cover. Take a hike, try some photography, archery, or any other hobby you don’t get a chance to do in the hustle and bustle of normal life. We even have a cornhole set for guest use! That is one of our favorite past times! Family cornhole tournaments provide a ton of laughs! Do a workcation and stay a bit longer! The home does have a desk and chair - along with DSL that is sufficient to do Zoom calls. Work might be be easier if you get to do it from the front porch in the woods. Take a break and soak in the hot tub. Not a bad way to spend a work day. Features you will LOVE about this property: (besides the quiet and relaxation!) NEW HOT TUB!
