However, the folks running this place absolutely deserve a five star review (and I'm going to book our next stay well in advance!). We stayed in the pet-friendly cabin #5 which had two bedrooms, a full bath, full kitchen, indoor jacuzzi tub, fireplace, powerful heating unit, and a beautiful front porch with a swing overlooking a pasture and mountains. We drank our coffee here as we watched the sunrise each morning. The cabin interior had every amenity you could need- pots, plates, utensils, coffee maker, paper goods, fresh towels. The decor inside the cabin was so cute and cozy. The other cabins are spaced well apart for privacy and there is a common picnic area up on the hill with a large grill, fire pit, tables and chairs; the sunset views up here are beautiful. I mostly spoke with Sonya who was so kind and also cleaned the cabin before our arrival. Everything was sparkling clean and the fireplace was lit for our arrival. We couldn't be more pleased with our stay and we didn't want to leave. We can't wait to return with friends and family. During our stay, we hiked several spots along the parkway, but our favorite hike was over in Buffalo Mountain preserve (30 min from the cabin) for the most beautiful 360 degree view at the peak (be advised it was pretty strenuous and muddy with all the recent rain). And we also highly recommend Buffalo Mountain Brewing/McDaniels Tavern for a beer and a bite to eat after your hike.

Overall, a terrific getaway. We spent a week enjoying the charms of the cabin and the area. Here…read moreare a few things we learned from our visit. First, the pictures available online don't do justice to the beauty of the location. The cabin sits just above a burbling stream. It lies at the end of a mile-long gravel road with plenty of up-and-down, blind corners, and two gates. This feels like a truly secluded spot. It is visible from the road, which is just on the other side and above the stream. But, as we experienced in late July, the dense foliage obscures the cabin. The cabin itself is both well-equipped and rustic. The kitchen has most utensils and cooking equipment, including a rice cooker, electric skillet, toaster oven, microwave, etc. everything was older but clean and functional. There is a single full bathroom with shower and a half bath upstairs. A washer-dryer set is very helpful. Internet access is a plus because cell service is spotty or nonexistent. For fellow jigsaw puzzlers, the kitchen table is perfect for a 1000 or 1,500 piece challenge. The deck is absolutely lovely. Given the location, the sun didn't hit the cabin until mid-morning, and never fell under the roofed portion of the deck. We were able to sit outside from early morning to evening in relative comfort. We brought citronella candles, which kept the bugs away - but those weren't bad at all. The owners ask that you removed the trash and clean up upon leaving - a usual request. They also ask for guests to wash and dry the sheets and sweep/mop upon leaving - a less common ask. The bedding was adequate. Older pillows and a firm, creaky master bed could be updated. This is not a touristy area. Those lie north and east of here. We brought all of our own food. If you plan to eat out, or shop out regularly, you will need to drive some distance/time. Within an hour's drive - and you will need to travel to take in the area and get supplies - are several wonderful spots. Be sure to hike Stone Mountain State Park. What a beautiful, well-maintained park! Bring your bikes and complete the 20-mile round trip rail-trail between Todd and Freeport. Gorgeous, easy ride along the New Fork River. Get baked goods at the Todd Mercantile store. Boone has some shopping and organic groceries, but is a solid two-hour round trip. Looking for adventure. Drive north on the main road, take the gravel road (left) at the fork, and follow the mountain road about 5 miles to the Blue Ridge Parkway. One of us enjoyed that very much; the other less so given the hairpin turns and steep drops. We definitely recommend Blue River Cabin.
