Terrapin Mountain Run Getaway

Wonderful Experience

This home was large and spacious for the 6 of us, all adults. The surroundings were very pleasant and serene, a very calming experience. I would definitely consider going back if I had that many people again. The owner, Kate was easy to contact and talk with. Despite the rain we had a lovely time.

Visiting our Son

Country setting away from towns but yet less then 1/2 hour drive to restaurants, food stores, gas or things to do. Very quiet area where the house is located and sitting on the back screen in porch, you saw and heard the sounds of nature. The house is very spacious with plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms and seating for lots of people. Very well stocked supplies for cooking, utensils for eating with, some seasonings and other stuff for eating and cooking with. Kate the host was very informative, knowledgeable, responsive to questions we had before we made our trip to the house and while we were there and kind. Would stay again!

Gold Standard VRBO

We were 6 adults .. wide range of ages. Each of us was most pleased with the house and gracious amenities. House was lovely, welcoming, sparklingly clean with comfortable beds, good showers, fully stocked kitchen supplies with surprising extras. (Bedrooms were one flight up and a room with a futon and full bath one flight down from main level.) Been in Vrbo, b&b and airb&b places .. Breezewood is set as my gold standard! We’d stay again in a heart beat!

Family Getaway

This home was absolutely the perfect place for our family getaway. It was in a peaceful and quiet neighborhood, located within walking distance of a playground. The property was beautiful and had all the necessary amenities for our group. The spacious yard allowed ample room for volleyball, badminton and corn hole games, while allowing plenty of space for my grandson to ride his balance bike. The ping pong table provided much entertainment for our family. I would highly recommend this home if you are looking for a place to stay in this area of VA. Also, all communications were prompt and provided requested information.

Perfect home for a family get away!

This home was perfect for our families to come together and spend some quality time together. The home had plenty of space for our group of 10. Not far from the home was an elementary school where we were able to play a kickball game then let the kids play at the playground. Kate was amazing with communication! She is a great hostess! Hope to stay again in the future!!

Epic Quest Trip

My husband and I took our grandchildren to SeaQuest in Lynchburg VA. We had sooo much fun and made wonderful memories for our family. The children also had never played ping pong so the table downstairs came in handy and kept them occupied when not out and about. It was also nice to have many full baths so that cut down on preparing for the day time!

Wonderful!

We had a wonderful break at this home in Bedford County. The house was spacious, comfortable, fun, and well equipped - we were at want for nothing! Kate was easy to work with, kind, and very attentive when we had a question. We enjoyed Natural Bridge, the Drive-thru Safari, hiking, and time in Lexington. We will be back!

Wonderful stay!

If you are looking for a quiet house in the mountains, then this is the house for you! The check in and check out process was so easy and everything we needed was provided for us. The kids had a lot of fun playing ping pong and hide and seek and there was plenty of room for all of us to spread out! If we are ever back in that area, we would not have to think twice about renting this house!

About the host

Hosted by Kate Boyd

Host profile image
Hi, I'm delighted that you are interested in our vacation home in beautiful Big Island, VA! I came to Bedford County many years ago and love the serenity of the country hills. On my hobby farm I enjoy my 2 pet cows, chickens, cats and dogs. My three, nearly grown children are now scattered across the state but all enjoy coming home to the peace and quiet at the base of Terrapin Mountain.
While not tending to my animals, properties or kids, I work for Bedford County Public Schools. As a former biology teacher, I help students with a variety of needs.
Finally at the end of the day once all responsibilities have been met, you may find me walking/hiking, cooking or planning my next vacation. Traveling is a wonderful thing, it never ever gets old!
