This home is beautiful and extremely comfortable. We appreciated all of the TVs, the billiards room, and the very well appointed kitchen. We like to cook and bake, so it was wonderful to have all of the necessary pots pans and utensils on hand. We are not local to the area, so we were not aware of the drought or the status of the lake in front of the property. Sort of a downer upon arrival in that we thought we would be on the water. We enjoyed the dock except our dogs would not stay out of the mud and we had to bathe them. We are hoping to return next year for a longer stay!

It is a beautiful home and the setting is just lovely. Owner very helpful and home was clean and well stocked. We stayed for a Tech game. The little town was adorable and we look forward to returning.

The house and grounds are lovely!!! The house was very well stocked and comfortable. The lake and park are beautiful!! We can't wait to stay there again!!

We could not have been happier. After hastily departing from another location due to an infestation of bugs discovered in the bed sheets, we found this location and the owner was happy to oblige a same-day check in. The cabin was spotless, the views were amazing, and we can't wait to go back next year!

Beautiful location and home. Spacious and accommodating. Conveniently located to VT, Cascades hike (both beautiful 45 minute drives) and the New River trail right down the road. We enjoyed the kayak provided. Wonderful coming home to the lake house!

Property just as described in the listing and photos. There are deer everywhere near this property, which you will see everyday. Beautiful house!

Just returned from a week-long family vacation at this beautiful property on Claytor Lake in Draper, VA. The large home had everything needed and was comfortably appointed with many extras to include pool table, shuffleboard table, canoe, kayak, movie room and more. We enjoyed exploring the area including Drapers Mercantile just down the road, rented a ski boat at Claytor Lake State Park, and Ziplining near Floyd, VA. Would definitely recommend and hope to return in the future.

Beautiful property in a great location. Loved the privacy and watching the ospreys over the lake, as well as, canoeing and kayaking. Great proximity to Virginia Tech.

Would just like to see a new dock, needs new floor.

Long weekend with our sons. Beautiful surroundings and a lot of outdoor activity around.

Such a peaceful place! From coffee on the deck overlooking the lake, to a family bbq with games, to sitting around the fire with a glass of wine, we truly enjoyed our stay! Even our pup had a great time catching frisbees on the huge lawn and checking out the water! Would definitely recommend and would stay here again in the future! The upstairs bedrooms have only twin beds with very high mattresses so really only good for children, wouldn’t recommend for very small children or elderly.

We had a great stay celebrating family!!

We were absolutely thrilled with this no frills huge cabin sitting on a beautiful lot right on the Claytor Lake. We hiked the New River Trail (5 minutes to the Draper lot), paddled the lake, enjoyed a movie night in the downstairs theater room, played pool in the great room and all had plenty of office space to get some work done as well (although the internet was a bit slow). Absolutely an amazing place averaging 10 deer each night watching us eat dinner. Fantastic and relaxing vacation!

Plenty of room, serene, everything you need. Lake front cabin with plenty of toys.

We had so much fun l! Relaxing and fishing!

This place is by far the best place I have stayed at. Owner was amazing on instant response to any questions. The house, property and amenities for exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for a place in this area this is the ultimate all around experience you want!!

My family rented the cabin for Thanksgiving as it is halfway between each family. Our stay was fantastic. Cabin was clean and FULLY stocked with anything you could need. Will definitely be going back next year.

Log home a lot of noise when you walk around with steps and floor squeaking but it’s worth it

This is a truly beautiful setting with lots of space. There are plenty of rooms and activities. The house is stocked with TVs and books and is surrounded by a huge lawn that goes right up to the lake. Very nice. Lots of interesting wildlife.

Awesome property with all the amenities that makes for a great vacation!

This house has about everything you need for a great stay at the lake. Ample comfortable beds and several relaxing spaces, the kitchen is extremely nice. Three different outside area, all with great views and the little area of Draper is really charming. One highlight i would suggest, is plan for a home made pizza night. There is an outdoor propane pizza oven that we churned 6 pizzas out of in 30 minutes and everyone couldn't stop gushing over how good they were (maple sausage and pepperoni were the voted favorite). Would highly recommend this house and also got some great boating in on the lake.

Perfect for a family to unwind. Small Children will enjoy. Older children enjoyed the multiple games and the pool table. The wildlife was incredible! Busy water way on the weekends, but fun to watch. We truly enjoyed our stay.

This property was great for our group and we will stay here again. Perfect for teens and young adults. I would recommend older children here. The house had everything we needed (linens, towels, kitchen and laundry supplies). The house is great! As mentioned, the water is shallow and the dock is older. I would recommend water shoes. It was fantastic for floating on tubes and our teenage boys loved wading to the sand bar out in the lake. We were surprised to learn we had access to a neighborhood boat ramp for the jet sky. Perfect area for that. We rented a pontoon from the marina about 15 minutes away for a perfect lake day. Just a note this house is below the lighthouse bridge and you cannot access it with the rental boats. The yard slopes gently to a row of trees and then down to the lake. Great space for yard games. ( You cannot see the dock/kids from the lower level of the house which is fine with older kids). My husband had great luck fishing from the canoe below the bluffs across the lake. I would like to visit in cooler weather to enjoy the very nearby New River Trail. We enjoyed a trip to the cute Draper Merc. House amenities were wonderful and the lake/yard area suited our needs perfectly. The owner was a little slow to respond prior to our trip, but be patient, I am confident that is because he prioritizes the current guest as he did with us while we were there. Great experience overall. Thanks Tim!

This is the 2nd trip my family made to this beautiful vacation home. The first was 4 years ago and it is just as wonderful as I remembered. The house is large, allowing lots of space both indoors and out for our family to enjoy. Everything we needed was there, kitchen utensils, dishes, glasses, coffee pot, crock pot grill, propane fire pit and more. We brought gates for the stairs, because we had two 1-year olds, which I recommend if you are bringing littles. The older kids loved the movie screen and selection of movies. The whole family enjoyed the dock and spent a lot of time kayaking, fishing and swimming. Tim was extremely responsive and helpful during the time leading up to our trip.

Good location, would have enjoyed more water toys for children and teens.. Clean, but dated.

The house has everything you would want. Plenty of towels, bedding, kitchen supplies, etc. We loved the location as it was private and easy lake access for our dogs. Highly recommend this property.

We were in town for Radford University graduation. Our stay at this home was excellent. We were very comfortable. The house is well appointed with everything you need. Plenty of space for our group of 8.

We loved the cabin, it was clean, kitchen well equipt and very updated. Wonderful views , would definitely stay again.

Took the kids and MIL for a short, quiet, relaxing vaca here and we loved it. The kids truly enjoyed running around the property and playing on the little playground. Their favorite part was taking the Kayak out and exploring the lake. Our pup was elated he could join in the fun too. It really helped us reset from the grueling day-to-day.

Would definitely come back! Owner communication was immediate when needed. The family had a wonderful time on the water, using the theater room, game room. and ended with a perfect snow day!

We enjoyed our stay

The home was amazing with just the right amount of room for all to have their own space. The grounds were spacious and the interior was spectacular. I just wish I had been made aware that there was no water in the lake the week we were there.
