Absolutely Peaceful
Loved having coffee on the deck each morning in peace and quiet. The cabin was awesome and comfortable; loved all of the windows. The drive to Grayson Highlands, West Jefferson were a little long but very beautiful. Hopefully will be able to come back sometime soon.

Lovely, comfortable house in a secluded peaceful setting
We really enjoyed our time at the house. It was clean and comfortable and gave our group ample space. The large deck was great for relaxing, we enjoyed watching the hummingbirds on the beautiful Bee Balm flowers across the front porch. Hiking trail behind the house provided a nice, quick outing while we had iffy weather. My only complaints were that there was a faint smell of cigarette smoke that was really only noticable when entering, like someone who used to live there must have smoked, and you have to pack out your own trash. The dropoff for trash is a 20 minute drive away and requires that you take a badge from the house to drop it off...and then you have to return the badge to the house to avoid a $100 fee. So unless you want to drive home with bags of garbage in your car, plan on an extra 40+ minutes of travel included in your departure. I feel like taking care of this should be included in the cleaning fee. It was definitely an annoying inconvenience that I think should be disclosed before booking, but ultimately would not prevent me from booking again.

Restful vacation
We enjoyed our stay at Black Dog! This was our 2nd trip . We enjoyed the beautiful views, our ride into Lansing to Pie On The Mountain... fabulous pizza, our hike on the trail at the cabin and our trio to the New River State Park. We look forward to our next visit!

Beautiful location with access to Mt. Rogers area
My family and I really enjoyed staying at the Black Dog cabin in Grassy Creek. It was very comfortable and nicely appointed with quick access to Grayson Highlands and the Mt. Rogers area. The cabin location was very peaceful and remote, which is exactly what we were looking for to take a break from hectic everyday life. We would definitely stay here again. Great check-in/out process and Stay Blue Ridge was helpful in accommodating a last minute change. Great experience, highly recommend!

Secluded cabin among the trees
This cute cabin is perfect for a getaway to the mountains. It sits on the side of a mountain with plenty of land so you have privacy. The only visitors we had were deer. The large windows in the house provided a wonderful view. The deck is massive - there is plenty of room for outdoor entertainment. We loved having the large fireplace for cozy evenings. The house is well equipped, clean, and modern. I would love to visit again sometime soon! We're thinking of going in the middle of winter just to sit by the fire and watch for deer!

Best EVER!
Over the years we have stayed at many, many vacation rentals. But never before have we walked out of a property and said… No!... we would not change a THING – except to stay LONGER!!!! This was a last-minute trip for us, at the peak of the busy fall travel time. Therefore, we greatly appreciated Miranda’s help – quickly answering our questions and accommodating a special request. The pictures of this “cabin” do not capture the beauty of its magnificent, wonderfully-wooded, secluded setting; nor its interior design with its breathtaking views, perfect 1-story layout and tasteful, but oh-so-comfortable décor. And, everything was spotless! – never before have we stayed in a wood-beamed, high-ceilinged/windowed property that had NO cobwebs! The kitchen was well-stocked and neatly organized; and the perfectly clean propane grill on the deck was a joy to cook on! Although our stay was short, we enjoyed our trip to Grayson Highlands State Park and hike to see the wild ponies; exploring the beautiful backroads; a delicious lunch at the Havana Café’; and picking-out cheese and other goodies at the Ashe County Cheese Co. store. But most of all, we loved our time at the cabin!... watching both the sun and moon rise over, and light-up the treetops; relaxing on the amazing decks, listening to the birds and seeing deer chase each other along the ridge-top; walking our dog (who clearly loved his stay!); and especially - being lazy next to the cozy fireplace! Thanks for giving us the privilege of enjoying the wonderful Black Dog! We hated having to leave; but can’t wait until we are able to return.

I loved the location, and the house was cozy, but unfortunately the two guest bedrooms smelled like death. Something had died in the attic and was rotting. Three out of four of us got sick. There were mouse traps set up, but apparently no one had come to check them. So, besides the death smell, rotten, aweful, smell, everything was great!

Such a beautiful property!!!! It is out in the middle of nowhere but, the drive into West Jefferson is easy. Great in between location of West Jefferson and Grayson Highlands State Park. The only negative, which is nothing really, just a suggestion, is to have a larger trash can since we have to take our trash out. We checked out on a Sunday so this was not necessary but we filled are can up pretty quick. Overall, great trip and highly recommend!!!

Great home for getting away from it all!! Home was nicely furnished, plenty of linens, kitchen was nicely set up with enough cookware and dishes that meal preps were easy. The WiFi password was incorrect but that was actually ok, no one could sit on their phones. I would definitely stay here again.

This property is so relaxing! It is located far away from everything- 25 minute drive to grocery store! The area is so quiet- a great place to get away from it all! There is a hiking trail behind the house which goes to the top of a nearby hill. We spent a lot of time on the spacious decks enjoying the forest views!

Clean and pleasant
We really enjoyed our weekend and appreciate your wonderful cabin! I want to note that we stayed in the Master bedroom and used that bathroom. When I was preparing to shower, I reached up and lifted the towel off the hook. (sink-side) The slide-in portion of the fixture came down with the towel, breaking off the hooked portion. I suspect that the center portion wasn’t pushed all the way down and made it too easy to slide up and come down with the towel.I reinserted the slide in portion of the fixture and was sorry that the hook portion was broken. I would suggest considering a towel rack that would provide not only more room for guest towels, but would possibly be a stronger option for towels. Thank you, Rachel Jensen
