Wheat Family Vacation

The cabin and property are beautiful. Everything in the house is as appears in the pictures. We loved the space for our large family with 11 adults and 10 children. Lots of room for everyone. The communication with the owners and manager was perfect. Lots of things to do in this area but we spent 2 of our days at the cabin Loved it. We will return here when we vacation to Blue Ridge area again.

An Amazing Place

We held a family vacation with 28 people, with 15 being under the age of 11. This beautiful home exceeded our expectations in every respect. We never felt crowded. Given the ages of the youngest kids and the multi-level set up, safety was a concern going -in, but was not a problem. Communication was excellent. We will be back.

Perfect Family Reunion

Our family of 18 had a wonderful long-weekend at Lake Buckhorn Lodge. Ranging in age from 9 months to mid-60s, everyone had a great time. The living spaces provided plenty of room for us to gather, and the kitchen was well-equipped for a large group. The incredible sports bar/game room kept us all entertained. We especially enjoyed having use of the kayaks and canoes for the lake. We plan to return for our next family reunion.

We had a great 4-generation family vacation here. The house is lovely with plenty of rooms to accommodate everyone. The decor is high-end. There is now a full sized second refrigerator in the mud room which helped tremendously. Parking was more spacious than we thought it would be - we fit 10 cars at one point. The lake was a lot of fun yet quiet and secluded. Everything worked - there were no surprises. Wifi was good. TVs, though plentiful, were all differently configured and not easy to figure out - but it was July so no one was really watching them anyway. The house and yard was immaculately cleaned with all the linens and kitchen supplies expected. Overall highly recommended.

Spring weekend

We enjoyed the house! We recommend it. The covered patio and view of the lake were perfect for morning coffee. The living area and dining room table were big enough for our large group. We visited the town of Blue Ridge one day. Nice shops and restaurants.

Our leadership team stayed 3 nights and had an excellent experience. There were so many fun and relaxing environments inside and outside of the cabin that we didn't have time to use them all. It was perfect and the team wants to come back next year. A great experience from booking to checkout.
