We stayed in the Picasso. Really loved the bed and linens. She made dinner for us the first night and it was wonderful. I'm OBSESSED with her biscuits. Breakfast was wonderful as well. Her Dutch baby pancakes are awesome! Inspired me to purchase a few pans of my own to experiment. The Vermeer is super close to down town. Can't wait to come back in April for our anniversary

This was just a day trip for us and we spent a couple hours in town. We pulled up and found the nicest man who was willing to drive us around. The tour went all over town and started at the granite quarry and then around town learning about Andy Griffith. The cost was $50 for the ride (not per person). We loved hearing stories and our driver was willing to answer all our questions and keep us laughing all the way! This is a definite must do if I return again. When we took off he turned in the sirens and we cheered.

Let me be clear up front - I have not stayed at Grassy Creek. I emailed with questions about…read morecertain dates - he only has 4 places to rent and we were going to book 3 of them for an entire weekend. Owner responded that they were available. I then emailed back to inquire about his cancellation policy. He said 7 days. I called him the next day to book our accomodations. He said that he had changed his mind when I asked about the cancellation policy. "It concerned him that I asked". "No one had ever asked about that before and that we would be tying up 75% of his inventory for that weekend and if we cancelled he would lose money that weekend." I assured him that I always verify a cancellation policy anytime I reserve a hotel or Airbnb and that we would only cancel in an emergency situation (medical, death, etc.). He still said he was concerned. I find it hard to believe that no one has asked about his cancellation policy in the years he has been doing this. That is a normal procedure when making a reservation. He was rude about the entire thing. Maybe he can find someone else that wants to rent 3 of 4 places he has at one time for that weekend! Good luck!

Be part of the Tiny House movement…read more We were visiting the area to attend the Galax fiddlers fest, and always like to find a unique place to spend the night and this is truly unique. The host/owner Donnie is casual, friendly and helpful. There are 3 cabooses and a Depot available for lodging. All are well spaced apart to provide comfort and privacy. If traveling with a group your still close enough to stumble on over to your on caboose. The pictures on the website are pretty accurate. You are on the blue ridge parkway about 20 minutes from Mount Airy ( Mayberry RFD), Malbry Mill, Galax and many other beautiful stops along the parkway. If peace and quite is what you are seeking this fits the bill. We chould have sat on the porch all day but the fiddles were calling.

This is more than a B&B. A Mighty Oak is a state of mind. My wife and I love the stately aura of…read morerich historical design in a completely modern structure. I mean, we didn't hear one squeak in any floorboard! Talkin' rustic and solid - a wonderful combination. This Inn has impeccable cleanliness and tasteful décor of every room. We came with another couple who are regular guests at B&B's all over the USA. They were decisively impressed. We came for the nearby Yadkin Valley wineries but found simply hanging out at A Mighty Oak to be quite pleasant. We sat on rocking chairs on the 2nd floor covered porch as we read or just talked as the stars emerged in the sky. Then we ascended to the 3rd floor for games (ping-pong, board games, TV sports) and reviewed the substantial bookcase. Of course, a huge facet of any B&B is the proprietor. We all recognize a passion for excellence when we experience one. It's there in spades with Todd, showing up in attentiveness to our needs and a pleasant, playful grace about him and his wife Lisa. And we saw his excellence in that 2nd "B" in B&B. We're talking as close to farm-to-table as it gets since the B&B's rear acreage is home to cows, chicken and plants. And, uh FYI, no smell in the air. Match freshness with culinary excellence and you've got an Rx for memorable breakfasts. I mean, I had never had a Scottish Egg and can't wait to see what Todd has up his sleeve next time! A passion for excellence shows up in every aspect of a business, but when it's a B&B, it can become quite special since they're sort of personal - I mean one actually lives there albeit for one or two nights. A Mighty Oak is indeed one special place. We will definitely return for our Mighty Oak state-of-mind fix!!

Words don't describe how I feel right now leaving this place. I have a good life at home with a dog…read moreand a great job, but I can honestly say I simply don't wanna leave. My mom died almost two years ago and I have not had a vacation since before being her caregiver in her last days. I never expected this few days get away to be so exactly what I needed. The owners. So warm and welcoming. They truly make you feel at home. I can't say enough good things about Will and Jennifer. The staff. Omgoodness. They have this sweet lady who cooks, cleans, and anything else you need who has worked there for 18 years. After she takes care of you she goes and gives care to her elderly Mother. I'm convinced she is an angel. Thank you Kathy for everything. The cabins. Private. Clean. You really feel like you step back in time but you don't have to give up your high speed Internet either. They are simply magical. The jacuzzi tub doesn't hurt either. The grounds. Completely perfect. Everything is spaced out but you don't have to travel far to get to the lake or take a hike. Our cabin literally had a view of Pilot mountain. There are grills to cookout. Free canoe, rowboat, and paddle boats. A gorgeous pool and a sauna that is something from the past. In a good way. I have never wanted to give something six stars before, but if I could I would give Pilot Knob Inn atleast that many. I can not wait to return to that little slice of heaven.

It has a pretty loud window type air conditioner (that smelled like it was on fire when we turned it up but it mellowed out), a small coffee maker missing the pod tray, and a mini fridge. The bathroom is tiny and has a corner triangle shower. It'll get the job done. The exhaust fan sounds like a cat in heat. If you're bougie dont stay here. If you are thrifty definitely stay here.

We have stayed here three times now. Our first trip was in…read morePapa John's Cabin. We brought food and had meals as a family. We rarely do that at home. I think this was my favorite cabin yet. The rain on the roof was a nice part, if it had to be raining. Our second trip was in The Mill House because we brought our dog. This is the one pet friendly cabin they have. Our most recent trip was in Deer Run, because our big kid wanted the loft. The loft is very roomy! My mother was from Elkin, so I like to visit the area. Nice day trips to the parkway, Stone Mountain, Mt. Airy, or even Blowing Rock. Of course, downtown Elkin is nice, too! The staff has always been responsive of any issues during any of our stays. I hear the wine tours are great, but we haven't tried any ourselves.

As a stay however, I found it uncomfortable for the keepers to be completely absent and the grounds vacant. Maybe it was the time of year and maybe it's just my preference. These historic cabins are out of "town" set among beautiful grounds where the healing gift of nature is very present. Speaking of nature, one evening we returned from dinner and there was a skunk in the grass at the front of the cabin. He wandered away, but it's a good reminder, you are in the great outdoors here.
