Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Grayson County

After a hectic election season, my husband and I both work in politics, my family needed a comfortable and peaceful place to relax and recharge. The cabin was a perfect setting for just that! A cozy living room, a well appointed kitchen and an incredible front porch with lots of options for sitting and relaxing made our long weekend wonderful! It makes for a perfect getaway and has an appeal for all seasons of the year. We will definitely return at some point for another unplugged weekend.

It was well the drive from Charlottesville. We would love to stay another time. That is in the plans. We say lots of birds. The house was very clean and comfortable. Great kitchen and the tea was a great addition. We made most of our meals at the house. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Charming house that truly felt like staying at Grandmom’s in the country. Large enough for a bigger family, 2 small families or a small group of friends. Lots of room to spread out. Kitchen was stocked with plenty of what would be needed for cooking meals. The surrounding area was beautiful. Perfect peaceful scenery for sitting on that front porch swing listening to the birds and watching calves chasing one another on the hillside. Freshly baked brownies were a thoughtful treat waiting for us when we arrived. Would definitely stay again.

Chea was a very proactive and friendly host. Location great for easy access to downtown Galax

The home and property completely met my expectations. We wanted to immerse ourselves in the lifestyle and history of old place and it did that in spades. We felt at home and slept great!

our stay at Grandma's Cottage was quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed the fenced in front yard for our fur babies. She responded quickly and was very helpful. A very good price for the location.

Lordy, we loved this place. AMAZING windows and kitchen, incredible hosts who were kind and super-responsive, wood burning stove was a delight. We didn't turn the TV on for 3 days and didn't care a bit! Can't wait to be back in the summer!

Very quaint setting. Worked out great for us as we had friends who live just a short distance away. Not sure if I just didn’t figure it out or if it wasn’t available but TV options were very limited. Other than that, it suited our needs very well.

The home was much more than I expected. My host was super.

Claudia is a very responsive and helpful host. Cabin was clean and easily accessible. There was a bottle of wine waiting for us when we arrived which was very sweet, and cabin was nice and warm. We will definitely be back.

The house was lovely and exactly as described, we had a great stay. Aundrea was very kind and responsive in messages.

We had the misfortune of being caught in a storm but Mary and family went above and beyond to help our family. We are very thankful for their kindness.

Down a long gravel road, outside of the small town of Independence, is a perfect getaway on the river. The owners, Dan and Jane, own an immaculate, new, 4 BR home that they have decorated in a way that feels more like an untouched piece of history. They are welcoming and gracious hosts, who have put every effort into making this a home away from home. The driveway is steep but manageable without 4WD. The one level living is perfectly set up with a massive front porch overlooking the magnificent New River. Each of the 4 bedrooms has its own bathroom, so convenient! The kitchen is perfect to cook, eat, gather and play. We enjoyed the proximity to tubing, waterfalls, and the town of Independence for fireworks on the 4th. Our family had no reason to leave this picturesque place and spent a day fishing and swimming in the cool, clear river across the street. Bring a book, a tube, or a kayak and simply enjoy this place like we did, Dan & Jane thank you for the R&R! This place is perfect!

Great experience - very comfortable house.

The cabin is awesome, very well equipped and comfortable. We were 11 and 2 dogs and we had a beautiful time for Christmas and New years. Michelle is absolutely a great host, very flexible with check-in and check-out times and responded quickly and very nicely at all times. I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants a peaceful and great quality time. We had 5 teenagers and they absolutely loved being there watching movies and playing board games.

Nancy's home is beautiful and welcoming. This is a tranquil location with all the amenities you will need. I love the back deck/porch which has comfortable furniture and an amazing view. The owner is very gracious and responsive.

Beautiful, scenic view and lots of peace and privacy! As depicted in the photos. My dog and I loved watching the sunrise and sunset view from the patio overlook, and walking the trails on the property. Was a little hard to find the driveway entrance to the property via gps, and my Honda fit could not make it up the steep gravel driveway.

A cute cabin close to all the hiking we wanted to do. The host was a great communicator and easy to contact.

We really enjoyed our stay at this house. We were there for 4 nights. The place is clean and has everything you need for your stay including a coffee maker, toaster, microwave oven and everything you need to prepare a meal. There aren't really any places close by to eat unless you drive 30 minutes into West Jefferson so make sure you bring plenty of food and beverages. This house is extremely secluded in the middle of wooded areas with a few other houses close by and the roads to get there are mostly gravel and poorly maintained in some areas. If you like peace and quiet this is the place for you. You'lle enjoy sitting on the decking that completely wraps around the entire house and one section in the rear of the house has a mountain view. I recommend bringing your own comfy folding lawn chair to sit outside.

Alison is a great hostess, the home was very clean, super organized and every little detail was thought off. Everything was labeled so there was no need to look for anything. I walked in and felt like home. Also loved the fireplace, the views from the living room, the property is very quiet and peaceful. The perfect place to really relax and unplug. I am already looking for dates in the spring to come back !
