About this cottage rental

Red Roof Cottage is where marriage proposals happen, friends gathering is even more fun, and quiet weekends in the mountains are the norm. Roof Cottage is nestled deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains or what we fondly call high country. While at Red Roof Cottage you will disconnect from noise, work, and relax while listening to the rushing Tye River. Food will taste better, you will sleep better and you cannot help but enjoy being surrounded by nature. Red Roof Cottage is located on the scenic Crabtree Falls Highway which is designated as one of Virginia’s Scenic Byways. You are truly in for a beautiful drive once you start up Crabtree Falls Highway. You will pass through serene farmland and as you begin the gradual climb to Red Roof Cottage you will follow the Tye River on the spectacular winding mountain road and experience the river song the entire way. Take it slow and enjoy the beauty. Once at Red Roof Cottage you will immediately notice the 1400 square foot cottage resembles a tree house as it is built above the large parking area with the rushing Tye River below Red Roof Cottage. You will enjoy the constant river song of the Tye River both outside and inside. As you walk up the two sets of steps you will see the large sun deck with plenty of seating. You will also see the covered area on the deck that protects against the sun and afternoon showers. You will enter through the screen porch which is perfect for enjoying a meal at the large red picnic table or just relax and read a good book from the Red Roof Cottage Book Nook as you sit and take in the sounds of nature from the wicker chairs or sofa. The screened porch has proved to be a guest favorite. Inside Red Roof Cottage you are surrounded by all natural wood, a vaulted ceiling, large windows that highlight the Valley and its various ridge lines, overstuffed chairs and sofa. The first floor bedroom has a king bed and opens to the sun deck, and the second floor loft area has a queen bed with a private balcony complete with antique rod iron chair and foot stool. Both beds have high thread count sheets and Ameri Sleep mattresses, another guest favorite. Both floors have private bathrooms with showers. Red Roof Cottage has a well stocked kitchen to include baking staples, assorted spices, complete set of pots and pans, crockpot, blender, cookie sheets, baking pans, tea kettle and an assortment of coffee options. You can make your morning coffee via a Nespresso, Auto Drip or Espresso pot, and if you like your coffee beans extra fresh a bean grinder is also provided. Your morning coffee or tea really does taste better at Red Roof Cottage. The second floor loft area has a nice sitting area that offers the best views in the cottage. You will also find the Book Nook and plenty of games in the Book Nook as well as the multi drawer cabinet in the sitting area.
Depending on your interests, you can enjoy some of the best hiking on the East Coast. Red Roof Cottage is less than 15-20 minutes away from The Priest, Spy Rock, Appalachian Trail, Three Ridges, Blue Ridge Parkway, and 5 minutes from the famous Crabtree Falls hike. If you want to exercise closer to home, you can always hike our nine acres that surround Red Roof Cottage. Fishing on the Tye River is allowed with appropriate licensing and great fun. Along with hiking and fishing Red Roof Cottage is close to 12 Ridges Vineyard as well as numerous vineyards and breweries in the Lovingston area. Information on all the vineyards and breweries is provided for guests as well as hiking maps and hiking guide books.
While you grill whatever you caught or brought on our outdoor gas grill, enjoy one of two fire pits. Follow the solar lights down the trail off of the parking area to the primitive fire pit or use the above ground fire pit outside the screened porch. Red Roof Cottage provides all the wood you could possibly need.
Red Roof Cottage is a unique place that offers a quiet, comfortable way to enjoy nature, family and friends. It’s unlike most short term rentals as it really is an experience. Most guests find it hard to explain but once you stay at Red Roof Cottage you will get it…..

RRC is absolutely gorgeous inside and outside. The furnishings, decor, and attention to detail speak eloquently of hosts that care deeply about their property and their guests enjoyment. The kitchen is very well equipped with an abundance of coffee options (makers as well as coffee pods and fresh beans) and spices. The bed and bath linens are top of the line. Shampoos, conditioners, body washes, face spritzers, and make up remover pads beyond expectations. My casual comment months ago about the trip as a birthday celebration led to a lovely welcoming surprise - a Happy Birthday cake and bottle of wine in the frig. No review could be complete without mentioning the beautiful setting. Decking with comfortable chairs, balconies, the screened in porch, and fire pits with the backdrop of the rushing sound of the Tye River provided wonderful starts to our days with coffee and wrapped them up with cocktails.

My boyfriend and I decided to vacation in Virginia as a getaway trip and we couldn’t have been more pleased with the Red Roof Cottage. We hiked nearby, visited the local towns, and spent time outside on the deck listening to the river. The attention to detail in this cottage are unmatched; I felt like I was right at home. It was so romantic, in fact, that by the end of the trip, my boyfriend asked me to marry him. I said yes! Definitely a vacation to remember and the location was the perfect spot!

RRC is one of the most well cared for properties we've stayed in and we travel a lot. From the moment we walked in we found treats for us, the kids and our fur babies. Every little detail was perfection. We hiked Crabtree Falls and it was everything I'd hoped for. My preteen daughter lived in her robe and couldn't believe Robin has Sol de Janeiro products in the shower. The house smelled of lavendar and had anything you could imagine. The organic coffee was to die for. Literally what my cottage dreams are made of.

Red Roof cottage is a lovely place in a gorgeous location. The property is so so clean, warm and inviting. The porch and screened patio are great places to spend your time. There are too many amenities to count but a short list includes all you need for morning coffee, treats on arrival, and a fully stocked kitchen. We had a wonderful stay - hiking cranberry falls and visiting 12 ridges winery. Both are very close by. I cannot wait to return and highly recommend to all.
