Great River View Stay

Perfect sized house for a couple or small family. Well appointed, loved the porch and river view. Convenient to town. Quiet neighbors and little traffic on road between house and river made for a very peaceful stay, but we were there Sun-Wed, so can’t speak for the weekends.

Cabin on the river

My partner, and and our 17 yo daughter enjoyed a week at this cabin. The kitchen was well-appointed, the living room and front porch was very comfortable. The view and access to the New River was fabulous. Even two neighborhood dogs came by for multiple visits.

Short Getaway

We came up for the Christmas Festival in Galax. This was the perfect location and the perfect lil house for our stay. It had everything we needed for cooking and was so cozy and warm. We hope to come back in the Spring and do some kayaking down the New River.
