About the host
Hosted by rita montero

i’m from the mountains of the great state of VA. I I recently sold my North Carolina beach property and found my way to where i’ve always dreamed to be. i love hosting! The world can be a stressful place. my goal is to offer calm and peace at Wildcat Ridge!
Why they chose this property
my roots are deep and after 73 years, i made my way back home.
What makes this property unique
Wildcat Ridge sits high above the town of Fries VA…the mill
town was .established in 1902 and built from the ground up The Fries cotton mill, formally named Washington Mills, provided housing and jobs
and every need possible for the residents The New River was damed up to provide electricity to run the cotton mill and supply the homes with power. . The second oldest river in the world runs through the town and your retreat has a full view of that river! i have waited a life time to have this view and recently was able to realize my dream. From the porch i can see the church i attended as a child, the school where i attended middle school. The sweetest part is i am on the same ridge my dad lived as a child. in the far, far distance i can get a glimpse of the cemetery where many members of my family are interred. After many years of being away, at 73 i’ve made my way home.
