About this house rental

Step back in time when houses were made from local materials found right on the property. Experience the charm of construction before the days of levels and perfect fits, yet the craftsmanship was so remarkable that somehow things not only fit, but held up well against the trials of time.
As you climb the stone steps in front of the house, note how each step has a different height before you arrive on the stone deck where rocking chairs and a wood bench await your use and delight. A truly great front porch and beautiful sunsets await you!

Inside, lovely rooms will greet you with quality furnishings as well as modern amenities in the kitchen and baths. Started in the 1920s (with outside kitchen and bath during the early days), the house has had several additions as it was enlarged and modernized. Today, it contains 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, a living room, large kitchen with dining area, and a large family room. Although rarely if ever needed, air conditioning has been added to insure your comfort.

The house is configured whereby it can be easily enjoyed by 6 people as an extended family or group, or by 2 or 3 couples or family units with separate sleeping areas in the 2 bedrooms and the family room.

Each of the living room and family room are equipped with a television with cable service and a dvd/vhs player. Also in the family room are a convertible sleeper couch and lounge chairs, a stereo system with cd player and floor speakers, and a bumper pool table.The house is heated primarily via gas heaters that helps keep this area warm and cozy even in the coldest weather. An extensive and varied collection of vhs movies are also available for your viewing pleasure.

All rooms are furnished with comfortable and suitable furniture and furnishings, including high quality mattresses in the bedrooms and plenty of closet space.

The kitchen contains all new appliances, including a refrigerator with ice maker, stove, and dishwasher, as well as all normal kitchen utensils, pots and glassware. Stove and oven are gas.

A utility room contains the electric clothes washer and clothes dryer, as well as a gas powered water heater.

One bath has a tub and shower, while the contains a shower.

There is also a “mud room” if needed to clean your feet before entering the house, and this is also a suitable area for storing skis or other outdoor equipment.

Enjoy a unique experience when you stay in this very cool house that is literally a taste of history, but with modern cooking and plumbing facilities as well as modern comforts and features like TV and Wi Fi . It is conveniently located close to stores and restaurants, but in a rural/natural setting. Where else do you get on the Blue Ridge Parkway to get groceries, but you are only 6 miles from a 24 hour WalMart Super Center, and a variety of other stores.

The Stone House is normally not available for periods of less than 7 nights from December to March.

The house is definitely on the older side and it's a little oddly laid out but overall it was nice and well located for exploring the mountains and different sights off of the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Stone House was built in 1922 with some modifications over the years. The layout of the house reminds you of visits to Grandma’s farmhouse of yesteryear. Window units and ceiling fans kept the house comfortable during 90 degree days. There area is very quiet.

Overrated house

My experience is not very pleasant with the stone house. 1. I found this house is quite overpriced. 2. One of the bathroom doors we could not close. 3. This house is not for 6 people, we have to sleep on the wooden floor, at night it was quite cold for kids. also there is no extra matteress. 4. You can not sit outside, as it has full of bugs wandering your head. It's really irritating. 5.Whole house is very old and need renovation, as you walk, it keep making lot of noise, also I keep hearing some noise at night, we were worried about our car parked outside.

This cottage was exactly what we expected based on reviews and property description. It was clean and once we got the hang of regulating the gas heaters, it was comfortable even with temperatures in the 20's. The layout is a bit inconvenient as you have to pass through either of the 2 bedrooms to go from the family/TVroom to the kitchen. But we were with close family so no one minded. It's location makes it feel very secluded even though it is close to all the towns and attractions we were interested in.

Rustic House with Interesting Layout
Rustic House with Interesting Layout
The Stone House was mostly as described. We enjoyed the location and convenience to the Blue Ridge Parkway. The house had all of the essentials. The house is furnished traditionally. The kitchen/dining room was well equipped and functional. The living room looked nice but the TV in that room did not work (lightning we were told) so we didn't really use that room. The Family room is very large and has continuous windows on 3 sides. The TV in that room worked but picture did not fill the screen. The WiFi worked well in the Family Room but not in the kitchen area. The land line was not functional while we were there even though we reported it to the property manager. Cell phone service in the house is marginal and frequently required us to go outside to make calls or send text. It turned cool while we were there and we had to use the gas space heaters. The central heating system is not functional. The space heaters were adequate to warm the house but no heat was available in the bath rooms. The layout of the house indicates it was significantly remodeled over the years and getting from the family room to the kitchen requires going through one of the bedrooms. This wasn't a problem for us but could be a problem with a larger group wanting some privacy.

The Stoney House is very quaint and quiet place to stay. It was clean and has a great front porch with rocking chairs to relax and enjoy nature. It is just about 2 miles from Little Switzerland and the Blue Ridge Parkway.
