The views are wonderful, and the hosts friendly and welcoming - plus a...More

The Coal River Valley, our neighborhood, is the premier wine, whiskey, and food destination.
The quaint town of Richmond is only 10 minutes away.
Within 15 minutes from the cottage, you'll find more than 10 vineyards, 3 whiskey distilleries, and more than 7 restaurants/cafes including the award winning Frogmore Creek Winery/Restaurant.
