About this house rental

This 1800 Sq. foot home is located in the historic mill town of Fries, VA. The beautiful New River flows by our small village on it's way up north. 'The New River Trail' follows the river from Fries to Pulaski for over fifty miles. It is a 'Rails to Trails' project for bikers, hikers and horses. There is very little incline or decent and you will find trestles, a tunnel, beautiful wild flowers, shoals and lots of cool shade in mostly secluded deep woodlands. The fishing is great along with canoeing, tubing and kayaking.

Blue Grass Music is plentiful with The Galax Fiddlers Convention and Fries Fiddlers Convention the second and third weeks in August.

The house is only 14 miles from the most visited National Park, 'The Blue Ridge Parkway' and the Blue Ridge Music Center.

For those of you with wonderlust there are lots of narrow dirt and paved roads with pastures, mountains, creeks and valleys to explore.

We stayed at "Nana's place" for a couple of nights so that we could ride a portion of the New River State Park trail on our bikes. The house was exactly as pictured with lots of homey touches and comfortable furniture. The hosts have done a great job anticipating guests' needs and planning for them. We loved sitting out on the front porch swing in the cool of the evening listening to the night noises. We were fortunate to be able to park right in front of the house but in the event on-street parking is not available there is convenient parking behind the house via a paved lane. We stayed in the upstairs queen bedroom which was very comfortable. The house was conveniently located close to one of the entrances to the bike trail. In addition to our bike ride we learned about a Thursday acoustic music night at the historic Fries Theatre from the host's information notebook. We were glad we attended; if you are in Fries on a Thursday night and like acoustic music it is a must-attend event. Thanks to Rachel and Richard for everything, especially the Oreos! :-)

This was the perfect place to stay. The owners were so nice. The house is well appointed with everything you need! My 2 Sisters and I stayed here and we all had plenty of space. The neighborhood was quiet and it was so relaxing. We played cards, watched movies and just sit out on the porch and talked. What a great time we had!

The property was amazing. The house was just like we expected. Tim was raised in the neighborhood and we were very excited to stay there again. The house was well supplied and in excellent shape.

The house was in a nice location on a quiet street. Walking distance to a beautiful park along the river. Very close to the New River Trail (though temporary closures forced us to access the trail in other locations). Check the state park website for updates if you’re biking. As others have said, the upstairs bathroom was pretty tight, but the bedrooms and living areas were spacious. We enjoyed the porches and pretty backyard.

Great place for our annual sibling retreat. All the rooms are very inviting. We especially enjoyed the front porch and dining room for gathering and playing card games. Kitchen is well equipped with plenty of dishes, glasses, cups, flatware and other cooking needs. We appreciated the parking space behind the house. The stairs to the upstairs bedrooms has a handrail on the lower section but not from the landing to the top. It’s the only thing we older folk wished for in this house. Communication with the owners was good. Richard stopped by shortly after we arrived to welcome us and make sure we had what we needed. Would recommend Nana’s Place to others.
