The absolute best stay near RRG—already planning our return!The Barn Owl at Hooting Owl Homestead is easily one of the best rentals we’ve ever stayed in. The host, Lauren, is incredibly responsive and has curated a space that is stylish, comfortable, and spotlessly clean. We were especially impressed by the hot tub, which was relaxing and clean, and the backyard bonfire was a huge highlight of our trip.The kitchen had absolutely everything we needed, making it so easy to settle in. The proximity to the Gorge climbing and Natural Bridge is unbeatable, but there are also so many amazing things to discover just by exploring the property itself. All of the different stays available here look lovely, and meeting the friendly animals was the icing on the cake. We’ve decided we might just take all of our vacations here from now on!

The barn was absolutely gorgeous! May special features and updates while keeping the rustic barn feel! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thanks for everything Lauren and Derrick.

Cabin was awesome. There is so much to do on the property to include pet farm animals, follow trails to waterfalls, a hot tub, playground and more. I wish we could’ve stayed longer. We used it as a place to rest from the activities we had planned in the area. But this cabin could be a destination all by itself. Definitely recommend.
