From the moment we arrived at the property and identified ourselves as the family staying at Elmo's rest, we were treated like part of the family. We arrived at the house to find everything clean and ready even though we were a couple hours early. The house is a century old so floors creak and some doors stick a bit. There is a giant field across the driveway from the house and the kids disappeared to explore the creek and the pond. There is a nice collection of farm animals. Overall a very private stay with just a few farm workers and the owners passing by a few times. It really is like you have a large acreage farm to yourselves. A winding gravel road brings you straight from the house to the Blue Ridge Parkway at Sharp Top trail head. A few from our party enjoyed the wine tasting and reported being treated like family there too, Wifi is good, but the cellular was not. Great time to connect and play games and turn off the phones for a taste of time before we were slaves to devices. Thanks for a great time.
