Perfect for family weekend

This was exactly what my family was looking for. We wanted a place to spend time together in the outdoors. We did catch and release fishing on the property and the kids caught tons of blue gill and even a few large mouth bass. The property had so much space for our easter egg hunt. We enjoyed beautiful sunrises on the back porch overlooking the water while drinking our morning coffee and sunsets in the evening sitting around the fire making s'mores. There are cute small towns nearby to explore and even a few historic areas on the parkway. We hope to stay at this property many times in the future.

Didn’t want to leave!

This place was a real hidden gem. Honestly, did not want to leave. Really fit our family in its decor and ambiance. Home was very clean, more than enough room for members of a family to have their own space and a common area for gathering. The pond was an amazing addition and we enjoyed kayaking on it everyday. Kids enjoyed games in the yard and adults enjoyed walking the property and road for some leisurely exercise. We absolutely had an amazing time. No one who stays on this property should leave disappointed. Rest, fun, beauty, and perfect for a romantic retreat or a place where a family to slow things down to really enjoy what’s most important, each other. I will definately be staying here again.

Great Place with beautiful grounds!

We were there for three nights for a family reunion. The house is old with vintage furnishings. That being said, it was clean and well stocked. Appliances newish and all worked. One ding was black mold in the second bedroom bath ceiling. Beds were very good and comfortable. One other note: my 92 year old mother could not walk to the house. Had to drive her.

This was the perfect rental for our family to get together. We all had plenty of room and the location was beautiful. We had fun fishing at the pond and our family was able to relax. Having a separate bathroom for each bedroom worked out wonderfully.

Peaceful retreat

We had a lovely stay at the lodge at Mayberry. We loved the property! After taking hikes in the morning we would return to the property and play games in the afternoon. We played ping pong, disc golf and croquet. It was so much fun! The pantry was well stocked. Double ovens came in very handy. Had everything we needed for nice dinners. Would stay here again!

Great Property!!

This was our family’s second visit to this property in two years. Our family from WV and FL met here for family time and visiting our ancestors birthplace. I visited this area every year growing up and the Woody’s home made a perfect place to stay. My 8 year old great grandson loved fishing in the pond and caught enough fish both years for us to have a fish dinner. I’ve been renting vacation homes for 30 years and this is my “favorite “ place. Thank you Woody family for allowing us to enjoy this beautiful property again this year.

October stay Lodge at Mayberry

We had a great time! My family enjoyed the Townes dam for canoeing, went to Buffalo Mountain for hiking and played lots of croquet. The property is perfect for the size of our family, gives us lots of room for grand children! The only negative is there needs to be some light bulbs replaced to allow optimal lighting

Peaceful

This property is well maintained and in a beautiful setting. We all had a wonderful time. There was enough space for everyone to find an area where they were comfortable. Our only concern was no keys for the house could be found so we had no access to the garage. Thank you for letting us stay in your lovely home.

Queit relaxing get away

Great location for visiting Mt. Airy and Stuart Va. Enjoyed fishing right from your back yard and our son loved the game room. Check in was a breeze. The kitchen was well stocked to prepare a meal dishes, utensils, spices etc. The town Meadows of Dan is just a gew miles away and has everything youd need if you forgot something.

Beautiful Place

Me and my family loved it here. If you are looking for high speed internet this isn’t the place but we was looking for somewhere to disconnect & spend quality time together. Even with the storms that rolled in Saturday we still had a great time & enjoyed sitting on the sun porch and watching it. We will definitely be coming back again.

Blue Ridge Gem

We could not possibly be happier with our stay. The property is beautiful. The pictures are accurate, but they cannot convey the sweet silence of this place. The location is very convenient. Meadows Of Dan is 5 minutes down the road and has everything you need. including some of the nicest folks you'll ever encounter. The house is perfect for large families or a couple's retreat. The fridge being stocked with essentials (including beer) after a day of driving was all the proof needed for us to determine that good people own the property and filled every inch with love. The only downside was watching it disappear in the rearview. We will absolutely be returning. The Allen's
