Great place on The James

House is well stocked and cared for. You’ll love to sit on the front or back porch and watch the river go by. Easy place to launch your own kayaks for the five mile trip to Buchanan. Neighbors are friendly and helpful.

James River Getaway

We found the home both spacious, well equipped and comfortable. This was our first time to the area, and we definitely will be returning thanks to the condition and amenities of the property, but also due to the relaxed rural nature of its location, right on the James River. Now that we know more about the area and river, we will return next time better equipped to fish and canoe the James River. Thanks again to the owner for his prompt response to our questions.

Great location by James River

Our visit was July 1-8, and we would highly recommend this property for a relaxing, refreshing stay by the James River. The house was very clean on arrival, kitchen well-stocked, ample linens and towels. We spent a lot of time on the porches, just hanging out and enjoying the quiet and watching canoers, kayakers, and tubers on the river. Access is right across the road (literally a one minute walk) so it’s easy to wade in. Because we did not have tubes, we went on a tubing trip through Twin Rivers Outfitters in Buchanan (about 4 miles from house). The yard is very large and flat with a big fire pit, picnic table, chairs. Roanoke is about 45 minutes away, but a neat town to explore with lots of green space. Lexington is about 25 minutes away. Just FYI: Because Buchanan is small, there is no large grocery. The Hilltop store and Family Dollar were depleted of basics (due to high volume of campers for 4th of July, we were told). What food we didn’t bring with us we got in Roanoke (combined shopping with a day trip), but there is a Krogers in Daleville, which is closer. The owner was very helpful, very responsive.

Peaceful, Fun house on the river

We had a great long weekend at this property. They have a ton of activities (yard games like horseshoes, cornhole), puzzles.. it is a 1 minute walk to the river, which is clear as can be. The kids loved swimming, splashing, running, grilling out. everyone we met nearby was friendly and helpful too. we would love to come back!

Relaxing River Retreat

Very quiet and peaceful area right on the river. Sit on the deck and enjoy the peace. We tied our river tubes to a rock and floated in the river all day. A big tree provides perfect shade so you can spend hours without burning. House has everything you need.

Perfect get away

The river house was perfect for an active family. It was well stocked with everything you’d need, just bring the food. Very clean and felt like home. I’d drink my coffee and read my book every morning out on the balcony while the hubby fished. We swam and played in the river every day and it was close enough to the local attractions to enjoy as well. It was just perfect!

Family visit

I went to visit my son who lives in Charlottesville. We wanted a place to fish and enjoy the outdoors . This was perfect ! It was not fancy but very comfoyand the river was right across a little shell road. It was close to tubing and kayaking . We found some neat places to eat that were not far. The kitchen in the property was well equipped . I would definitely go back.

The best place to stay if looking to get away. Being a huge fan of like minded owners who are gracious enough to be able enjoy the home environment rather than hotel rooms.

Secluded, comfortable cabin on the James River

The cabin is located deep in some of the most beautiful countryside I have ever seen with myriad hikes, kayaking, water falls, etc within easy reach, including The Natural Bridge only 15 miles distant. I rented the cabin on the day before arriving in the area which precluded me (by VRBO policy) of renting it on my arrival day. VRBO requires a property to remain empty for a day between renters. However, I included a note to the host that I would like the cabin on the next day when I arrived if possible. Mr Clark went out of his way to get in contact with me and to approve my stay on my arrival day and he made sure on such short notice that everything was cleaned and in excellent order. Terrific customer service which saved me major hassles! This three bedroom, two bathroom house has fine verandas, spacious living room and dining room - perfect for a family or a small reunion of friends. Plus the owners are pet friendly. My 11-year Labrador, who has hip dysplasia, quickly discovered that he could avoid the front steps to the front door if he exited and entered by the back door which exited onto a hill, the slope of which was much easier for him to navigate than a staircase. I highly recommend this cabin and the beautiful countryside surrounding it, and it’s owners. I would definitely rent it again.

Peaceful and clean getaway

This property was very clean, quiet and in a peaceful setting. The close proximity of the river made for great views and easy to get to for fishing (we didn’t catch anything, but had fun anyways). There was a big yard and big fire pit. We had a minor issue with one toilet but the owner fixed it within an hour. Overall, the place was great and we will definitely book this place again.

Quiet and Peaceful

This place is tucked away. It's very quiet and relaxing. We loved the river and the fire pit. We spent a day zip lining in Roanoke which everyone loved. Be careful leaving any food out the ants may find it. Overall we enjoyed our stay. I needed to get away from city life and disconnect and this place did the trick.

Amazing James River Get Away!

Had a great long weekend on the James! House was great, I could have been happy sitting on the deck all weekend but am glad I got out and did some kayaking. Trip to the Safari Park was surprisingly entertaining and the winery that overlooks the park has some really delicious whites to try. Highly recommend staying here!
