Lovely place to stay for a beautiful ride on the New River Trail.

The home was outfitted very nicely for a comfortable weekend stay with excellent proximity to the Fries Spur of the New River Trail. Loved it!

Perfect home for six of us to stay. We came to fries for the Thursday night Jam (wonderful!) and the home is very very convenient, and lovely. Zero complaints. We'll be back!

The property was exactly as expected. The area is beautiful and the people in the neighborhood were friendly and welcoming .

House was very nice, clean and quiet. Enjoyed the stay very much. Plenty of room for the family. Parking was ample in the back. Would have liked to try a little fishing but, ran out of time. The only upgrade I have would be to install house numbers. Good thing I had the listing with the picture.

This has become one of our favorite places to stay. Spacious, great attention to detail, and such a nice front porch.

This is a super rental. Clean, very well stocked kitchen and the owners provided many personal care items (if you forgot anything, most likely it’s there). There is lots of space for a large group and the front porch is a great place to hang out. There is a full backyard with a deck, gas grill and outdoor furniture. It’s a short walk to a riverfront municipal park and the bike trail. We’ll come again! (If I was looking for a negative, it would be that the living space is broken up - not open concept , and the bathrooms are a little small. But I’m happy to trade that for the charm of an old house with a cozy front porch in a beautiful area.).

My friends and I rented this listing for a short girls escape. We were in search of rest and relaxation and I believe that was achieved here. Unfortunately, I was not able to stay but my friends indicated the space was incredibly clean and inviting. The only comment they mentioned was that due to the layout of this house, it felt cramped in certain areas -mainly the upstairs bathroom. But this is common in older homes. This property has been well maintained and cared for and the front porch is delightful- especially great for watching storms roll in!

Great house in a nice neighborhood right beside the New River Trail.

Very clean and consistent with the pictures. Reminded us of staying at Grandma’s.

Great location in a quiet town, you can hear the river from the front porch.

We loved the location, truly stated, it's very close to the trail as well as walking distance to the dam. Galax is a short drive away if you'd like to eat out. The owners are very responsive. A bonus was that the neighbors were so friendly and helpful! We so enjoyed sitting on the front porch, chatting with neighbors and taking in the view. Everything was very clean and well stocked with all that you could need for cooking or baking and plenty of linens were provided. Beds were comfy. The hosts provided several snack options and even spare toiletries in case you forgot something as well as games and books. The only drawback was that the bathrooms, especially the upstairs one, were pretty small which may present difficulty for someone of a larger frame. Overall, it was a wonderful place to stay and we would definitely stay again!

The views of the New River were amazing and i really appreciated the booklet prepared for me and my family by the owners of outdoor activities and events. Thank you for a great stay

We had a very relaxing stay in a lovely home. Our hosts were great with communication and meeting our needs. The home had everything we needed and was clean, and nicely furnished.

House was great

We had a great time at the property and the town. The Christmas decorations were awesome and they accommodated last minute add ons with ease.

All great - porch sitting, neighbors, new River trail access very close by, clean as a whistle. Had snacks! Only draw back was no shower in downstairs bath and so all of us had to share upstairs bath - tiny bathrooms.

A quaint house with all the comforts of home. Plenty of room for 2 couples and separate bathrooms. Nice front and rear porches and a nice neighborhood with friendly neighbors. Great access to the New River Trail.

Lovely 3BR house was roomy enough for all of us. A short walk to the New River Trail and a short drive to Comers Rock and the Iron Mt. Trail made for a fun outdoors weekend! We also enjoyed a meal and a beer in Galax, just a few miles down the road.

We enjoyed our stay at this Fries VA property. It is a beautiful, comfortable well-appointed older home with everything we needed. House was very clean. Scenic area close by rail to trail entrance for biking and hiking, Blue Ridge Parkway entrance, Galax dining and shopping, etc. Enjoyed this area! Both bathrooms are very small, which could be a challenge for some. Hosts were quickly responsive with any communications and very pleasant.
