This is a peaceful farmhouse out in the country. There are gorgeous views and you can watch the cattle. We loved sitting on the front porch, waiting for the sun to go down and listening to our friend the whippoorwill sing for us! Very convenient location for exploring historical sites like the McDowell Battlefield. I highly recommend for a relaxing get-away!

The guys enjoyed their stay, it was nice and roomy. A couple suggestions would be a Smart TV would compliment the good wifi you already have and a baking sheet for the oven.Thank you!

Big Spring B & B-a great get away spot

We loved the spacious house and the way it was laid out. Nice touches throughout the house. The beds were the most comfortable we have ever slept on away from home. We enjoyed meeting the owners and talking with them. Will definitely be back!!!

Great 2 Night Stay

Great rental for our 2 night stay. Everything was easy from reservation to check in. House had lots of kitchenware and linens. I forgot to bring my tea bags and found a whole box at the rental! Loved the ground beef and eggs that where left for us to enjoy.

beautiful, peaceful stay!

A group of friends stayed at Big Springs B&B for a weekend trip to Highland County. The house was exactly as described, clean, and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare a meal and we appreciated the farm-raised beef in the freezer. The setting is beautiful. We enjoyed hearing the whippoorwills at dusk and seeing the milky way at night.

Mountain House

The manager was super nice, couldn't have met a better man. It was a beautiful area, the view was absolutely stunning, extremely quiet, the house was in excellent condition, we had all of the amenities we needed to make it a much more relaxing stay. I'm definitely going to book another stay there in the near future. Thanks,Ed

Perfect

Property was very clean, spacious, and had all the amenities we could need! Clean towels and bedding, snacks, some beef from the farm, and lots of room to roam. Host was very communicative and gracious! Plenty of firewood for the firepit, propane grill (that actually had propane in the bottle), chairs for the fire, they really had everything covered. Will definitely be staying again!

Heaven in Virginia

Peace like I had not experience in a long time. The town and people of Monterey were very welcoming. Fun fact- Elisabeth Kubler-Ross had a nearby retreat center back in the day.

Family Getaway

Very comfortable and welcoming home a-way from home - lots of "extras" available stocked in the pantry. The Farm fresh eggs were a special treat! The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable and the large living room and kitchen space was great! The only drawback occurred our last night - when we had an invasion of flying bugs come in through the AC units. The area itself is delightful!

So Cute!

My husband and I spent a weekend here celebrating our anniversary and had a great time. Check in was seamless and communication from Durwood was great. There’s no cell service in the area, but the house does have WiFi that is easy to connect to if needed, so this was a great excuse to unplug. There’s a backyard with a good bit of space for your pup to play as well. We will definitely stay here again if we’re in the area.
