About this house rental

Summary:

River Meadows Farm is a magical farm of 39 acres, with pool, mountain views, walking trails, wild flower meadows, orchards, pastures, and the Lynch River flowing through.



The Space:

Welcome to your exclusive sanctuary, a sprawling 39-acre farm estate in Dyke, Virginia, where luxury meets the untamed beauty of the Blue Ridge foothills. Designed as a high-end retreat, this is where you disconnect from the everyday and immerse yourself in nature, comfort, and tranquility – a truly wonderful place to get away.

Multiple generous living areas invite connection and relaxation. Gather for memorable meals in the formal dining area, perfectly sized for your entire group.



The five tranquil bedrooms are designed for ultimate rest, featuring plush, high-quality bedding and serene decor. Ample bathrooms ensure convenience for all guests. The heart of the home, a fully-equipped gourmet kitchen, boasts modern appliances, extensive counter space, and all the culinary tools needed for your creations.

An Outdoor Paradise Awaits on 39 Acres: The true magic unfolds across your private domain. Explore miles of maintained walking trails that meander through vibrant wildflower meadows, fruitful orchards, and peaceful pastures. Discover the historic charm of old barns and picturesque cabins that dot the landscape, adding to the authentic farm ambiance (please note, cabins are scenic elements, not for guest lodging). Even an intriguing old rock quarry tells a story of the land's rich past, waiting to be discovered.

8 / 10Excellent·Jun 2025
The property setting is nice and quiet and plenty of outside space to explore. The pool is small but is satisfactory for young children. Kitchen and family room had plenty of room and all appliances ample and working well. The beds were comfortable, and it was very convenient to have four full bathrooms. The library provided a private workspace -- greatly appreciated!More attention could be given to the patio for it was not an inviting place to sit, even in the cooler evenings due to all the grass and weeds growing up through the bricks. Too bad because it could be a very pleasant space.Discrepancy in House description. It is listed as having 5 bedrooms, when in fact, there are 4. Two rooms with Kingsize beds, one room with a queen and one room with two twin beds. The downside of the stay is when the upstairs AC unit stopped working due to a malfunctioning damper. Property management group notified Saturday late afternoon, but it was not fixed till Sunday evening around 8 pm or so. Major disappointment. If you are going to book weekend rentals you should have in place the service providers who can make 24/7 calls. Very fortunate that the downstairs unit/ system was working. Temperatures were in the high 90's. Ending -- River Meadows Farm has a lot going for it and we wish you well!
