About this house rental
This property is newly painted and renovated and has been in my family for 150 years. The farmhouse has modern updates including wifi to go along with traditional touches like a beautiful private setting and family antiques inside. The water is the best water you will ever taste coming right out of the 250 acre mountain that is part of this property. There is a pond and lots of options for a country stroll. Bring your fishing rod and can of corn or worms.
The beautiful 1/4 mile driveway for the property is one of the few that is directly off the Blue Ridge Parkway(For those of you familiar with the area the driveway is directly across the Parkway from Miller's Campground). This section of the Parkway is peaceful and gorgeous in every season, filled with wild flowers and birds in spring, summer, with stunning color in the fall, and spare, contemplative beauty in winter.
This property is 25 minutes from West Jefferson which is known for its art galleries and crafts, pubs and restaurants. Mt. Jefferson state park is there. It is 25 minutes from Wilkesboro and Merlefest. A little further up the Parkway are Boone and Blowing Rock, skiing, restaurants, shopping, and views, views, views. The New River is 20 minutes away with outfitters for canoeing and tubing. There is no better climate on the east coast during the summer than in these mountains.
This section of the Parkway is very popular with bicyclists. The Mountains To Sea Trail passes through here as well.
The Vacation Rental is the main house downstairs. Upstairs is an apartment occupied by a property manager.
My wife, Jenny, and I, have a vrbo property in Asheville where we live that we have been renting for years. Check out our reviews there, VRBO 427206. You will fall in love with Parkway Country House.
There is A/C in the bedrooms. The rest of the house is cooled by the fresh mountain air.

The property met, if not exceeded, all of our expectations. It has a beautiful, albeit slightly remote, setting and is spacious inside. Two of our grandchildren stayed with us one of the four nights we were there. It is an all-around winner and there is no hesitation in the "5" ratings given for each category.

This is an absolutely beautiful property where the options of things to do seems endless. We enjoyed activities varying from sitting quietly and listening to the creek while watching the plentiful wildlife around the pond or on the grassy hillside, to easy and moderate hiking and cycling on the property, nearby trails, and on the Parkway. We also enjoyed visiting to of a number of lovely small towns nearby with interesting shops and restaurants. We also enjoyed meals easily prepared in the large kitchen of the house and well as grilling out and dining on the outdoor patio. The whole house is roomy and comfortable and even in the summer can be open to allow in the refreshing cool mountain breezes. We will definitely be back.

My husband and I along with our dog enjoyed every minute at this beautiful mountain home. The property was amazing with gorgeous views, awesome hikes, and many shady spots to relax and recharge. The location is perfect for cycling on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Best of all, the house was equipped with everything needed. We loved our stay and would highly recommend renting this lovely place!

We LOVE this house - this was our second stay...but the oven wasn't working and we were there for Thanksgiving - that put a damper on things...
Also - the pond used to be stocked...not so much anymore - my son was disappointed in this as he was looking forward to fishing.
New King bed - very comfortable!
Remodeling still going on - so I am sure it will continue to be updated and amazing!
Overall had a GREAT trip and will be back!
