During the winter you can access the property trails but we ask that you wear one of the orange vests provided for your use. The best trail to use is the High Bridge Trail that goes thru Rice, VA and onto the actual High Bridge.

Anniversary Weekend Getaway
We love this property, it is so quiet and peaceful We love the cottage and the hiking/walking that is all on site. The house is warm and inviting, decorated with farmhouse chic style. This is our second time and we came more prepared to not have to leave at all during our stay. We love napping on the porch and star gazing by the fire pit. Nicole and family are amazing hosts, making sure we have everything we need and more. We hope to go back in the fall.

In town for our son's baseball game and we could not have been more impressed with this rental. Nicole thought of everything here and the cottage was immaculate. We had a pleasant and wonderful stay. Quote possibly one of the best rentals we have experienced. Thank you!

A wonderful escape to The Fox Den!
We had a wonderful stay at Nicole‘s property. Everything was perfect. The house was adorable and we truly enjoyed the fox theme. There were some really unique decor items. We loved how the place was decorated, it had a gorgeous kitchen-family room open space. Everything looked new and clean. The house was appointed with absolutely everything you would need and then some. We loved the privacy being surrounded by trees and nothing else. We did not get a chance to use the fire pit, but we will the next time. Nicole was very accommodating, easy to talk to and really kind. We loved this property and will definitely return. Highly recommend.

Home away from home
I received a 5 star from my wife for picking this place. Everything was clean and all the amenities were effortless to navigate. It definitely felt like home away from home. Charming place and hope we have an opportunity to return and stay longer.

Absolute Gem!! So peaceful and beautiful! Will stay again!
I cannot say enough about this property, the inside is stunning and loved all the details. Nicole made sure we had everything we needed and more. The outside property is vast, we walked and hiked twice a day. The road that goes up the hill allows easy access to the top of the trail. You can venture off on the side trails which lead you back to the main. We packed our snacks and food so we could fully take in this beautiful property. This place is gorgeous and the porch, wow loved the rocking chairs and swing, morning coffee view. Beautiful, Beautiful!!! We are already planning to come back. Thanks again Nicole for everything!
