What's special
This is the one that so many have waited for.... It's enchanting, artistic, inspiring...the place you want to run away to. Just the drive there is jaw-dropping with some of Bedford County's most incredible mountain views. Built in the early 1930s by the Civilian Conservation Corp for the superintendent, this wonderful cottage holds on to a part of local history. The intriguing structure was fashioned out of intricately chiseled stone. You will recognize it as the same construction used on the parkway for the many rock walls and bridges. Nestled among huge oaks with Terrapin Mountain looming in the background, you are only minutes to the Blue Ridge Parkway. Stepping in the front door will pull you out of the present and into the past. Kick off your shoes, build a fire in the huge fireplace, grab a glass of wine and create your next experience. All bedrooms and baths are on the main level. The main bath has been remodeled and many custom touches have been added.
