4 Bedroom House in Dan River, Ararat

At night sit on the porch and listen to the tranquil sounds of the river, do a little stargazing or grill your favorite steak, sit around the firepit or picnic table. When you go inside you can relax by the electric fireplace with someone special. Read, watch Roku TV, play chess or checkers. There's plenty of space with 4 bedrooms, and a playroom with a futon that folds out to make a double bed. Two full bathrooms, one on the main level and one upstairs. Bring the family, play a yard game, shoot a few hoops or relax and enjoy the peace and quiet for your next vacation or just a few days to rest and recharge. You deserve a nice get-away.

Summary: Location, location, location! So quiet and peaceful. We stayed during winter so even more peaceful. Did not catch and fish but were told they migrate in winter. That was evident as we are avid anglers. Mt. Airy has all services and supplies one might need plus plenty of places to eat and historical things to do. The cons: Well water with sulfur smell. That takes some getting used to. Bottled water is a must. kitchen was ill equipped for any foodies thinking of renting (bring your favorite frying pan), and there was a leak under the sink (we emptied the pan once during our 4 night stay). Finally, the beds are worn and mine even had either a fallen or a broken slat. The pros: We made the kitchen work with what we had. Also, the place is super cozy and the host very responsive. The place was spotless upon check-in. Overall a great stay and would definitely rent this place again. The highlight: On the first day pulling in, a golden eagle flew up off the Dan River near the bridge just before the home. Magnificent!
