"The room was spacious and clean; staff was very nice and walked us straight to our room. Staff also provided recommendations for breakfast, since the restaurant was closed."
"This was our third stay at Red Rocker. It is always the loveliest place to visit, so easy to get to downtown and Violet could not be more helpful or kind. We will be back again!"

"Gorgeous place and so cozy. Stayed 5 days and enjoyed every minute. Want to go again. I am 62 and rode tubes down the river. I laughed and laughed. My husband died so a girl friend went with me. "
"My partner and I had a wonderful time staying at the Fox Den to celebrate our anniversary. The location is conveniently 20 minutes from the nearest town, but just far enough away that it feels very remote. As of July 2025, many of the main parks in the area are still recovering from Hurricane Helene damage, but that didn't stop us from finding open places to explore, as the Fox Den is nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains. The home is already equipped with basic necessities such as paper towels, trash bags, and toilet paper, so you do not need to go out of your way to buy those things at the store before your visit. Towels and linens are also provided, which saved some room for us when packing! Overall, great visit and Ron was extremely accommodating and available throughout our stay. If you're ever in the area, the Fox Den is a great place to stay."
"This property was everything we could ask for and more! It was clean and exactly as pictured. The game room was awesome to have with a group of us! The driveway is a little scary if you aren't use to mountains, but ultimately really not that bad compared to other driveways around. I loved everything about our trip and the town! Definitely one to save for your future trips!"
