Good to know
This 2 bedroom 2 bathroom non-smoking home is situated on 8 acres of trees and backs up to the George Washington National Forest. We have plenty of wildlife! We often see deer, turkeys, at least 20 different species of birds, raccoons, opossums, the occasional ground hog and fox have also been spotted. Since we are remote, there are some modern amenities we do not have. We have DSL internet connection, so I would consider your stay a technology light vacation. Streaming services do work on the TV's and we have Direct TV cable as well. The struggle may be if you try to download large files while out at the house. We also do not have municipal trash service. You will have to take your trash and recycling, if you choose to do that, down the street to a collection area on the way to downtown Lexington. We do supply trash bags for all stays and instructions and directions to the collection area are provided. We are pet friendly! We have our own fur babies and know how much fun it can be to bring your four legged family member. We do ask you let us know you are bringing a pet. We allow up to 2 pets per stay. Please reach out if you have questions about this, we are happy to answer them or give an exception to this rule ahead of time. One bedroom is a master suite with a full bathroom in the room, with a shower/tub combo. The other bedroom has a bathroom right next to the room, which is also a shower/tub combo. Each bedroom has a large California king memory foam mattress with plush and ample bedding and pillows. What good is a vacation if you can't rest properly? A double pullout sofa in the living room allows for another sleep space, or expands for more comfort when watching TV in the living room. Love to cook? So do we! We have a lot of the kitchen essentials in the home, including microwave, blender, baking pie dishes, flat pans for things like pizza and baking cookies, pitchers, serving bowls and plates, muffin tin, knives, serving spoons, Keurig Coffee Maker, and more! Love a nice cold cup of water? We have a whole home filter and an additional filter on the fridge for ice and water in the door. No need to bring bottled water with you! Love a nice night by the fire making s'mores? Oh we have you covered there! Firewood on site for guest use for free, and enjoy marshmallows cooked over an open flame.
Other Details to Note
There is a RING camera system that monitors the exterior of the home on the property, facing the back yard and the front parking area and front of the home. This system does record continuously and will record audio in close proximity to the floodlights. There is NOT municipal trash service on the property or out in this area. There is a collection area that is located a few miles away in the direction of town. It is located at 31 Murat Rd. Lexington, VA. They are open from 7am to 6pm Monday through Saturday and 1pm to 6pm on Sundays. Please take trash down to that collection area. Please do not leave trash outside the home as this can attract bears. We want to keep our wild spaces wild, and any bears that learn to live off interaction with people are killed. We ask that you are a responsible steward of our rural community which allows a natural ecosystem of deer, chipmunks, squirrels, birds, and larger animals like bears to exist in the area. The unfinished basement has the washer and dryer for the home. There is a cornhole set for guest use as well, in addition to wire kennels and dog beds for the four legged family members. There are personal belongings of the owner kept down in the basement as well as an owner’s fridge. Please do not disturb owners belongings in basement. We ask that guests do not burn personal belongings in the home - this is our personal home. If you want to use the fire pit we do provide fire wood, but it is natural, untreated wood. We recommend picking up treated kindling or Duraflame type logs on your way to the house to help get a fire started in the fire pit if you are not familiar with starting fires using natural untreated wood. This home is dog friendly and we ask that you keep dogs off the furniture - both inside and outside the home. We would like to keep this home available to families that travel with their four legged family members - so we ask that dogs are kenneled when not directly supervised and that you clean up after your dog before you leave including the grass around around the home. We do not allow cats or birds in the home. We do not allow any motorized vehicles off the gravel driveway and parking area. This includes ATV, four wheelers, dirt bikes or motorcycles. In addition, do not shoot fireworks or firearms on the property. We have a quiet wonderful community and we want to be good stewards of nature around us. Come relax and unwind!

Accessibility
Neighborhood
We aren't in a neighborhood which is what makes this place so special! You can't see a house from the house! You have 8 acres to yourself. The neighboring properties do have dogs you can sometimes hear bark, but other than birds chirping or a hawk squawking, you won't hear anything. You are out in nature, so you will often see deer crossing the property, hummingbirds during certain times of year, opossum, racoon, occasionally snakes and bugs out on the trails on the property. Please keep your trash inside the home as we have seen bears in the area. You are out in the rural countryside where Nature lives, so be prepared and act accordingly.
Guest Access
You will be given a code for SmartLock on the exterior doors to the home in your check in instructions that will be valid for the duration of your stay and specific to you for safety.
WHERE YOU'LL STAY
Reviews
Find us
You will need a car for transportation as there is not municipal service out here. Also please be aware there are NO food delivery options out at this address, so no Uber Eats, GrubHub, pizza places, Ship, InstaCartt etc. There are several local grocery stores in downtown Lexington and we advise stopping there before you come out to the home. The options are: Kroger at 422 E Nelson St, Lexington Food Lion at 84 E Midland Trail, Lexington Super Walmart at 1233 N Lee Highway, Lexington. If you have a truck, SUV or all wheel drive vehicle like a Subaru Outback, it will be easier to get up the driveway. We do have a Ford Focus that we can get up the driveway, just put your vehicle in Low or 2nd and take your time.
