We live on 13 acres outside the town of Floyd, just a few miles off the Blue Ridge Parkway. It's very quiet out here. A lovely place to sit and enjoy nature. Please take note that our driveway is bumpy and your rig may get scratched! The views from the property are beautiful and the pastures that surround us are a wonderful place to take a stroll. There is a dump station at Chantilly farms camp ground, about 5 miles from us. The WiFi is accessible near the house but very spotty further away. Cell carriers in the area are Verizon and AT&T Suggested Local Attractions:Floyd is famous for Friday Night Jamboree at the country store. A great place to hear blue grass music. We are right off the crooked road (for music enthusiasts). We are right off the B.R. Parkway and about 40 minutes from Virginia Tech. Go Hokies! Great hiking and site seeing, bird watching and history out here. The Spikenard bee sanctuary is just a few miles away and Floyd has a great Saturday market as well as wonderful shops owned by local artists.

Location
Access Road Conditions: The total size of your rig, tow vehicle, trailer and towed vehicle should not exceed 30ish feet. Not just the trailer. The turn into driveway is tight as well as a couple of tight turns coming up. You will need to stop and use flashers to open the cattle gate. We would love to host you, just don’t want ya getting stuck. We live off a half mile rocky bumpy driveway. We own a 17 ft single axle Lance trailer that gets up and down fine but please be aware that the road is bumpy. There are two cattle gates that you need to open and close each time you come and go as well, but the view and peace and quiet are well worth the bumps. Tow Vehicle Parking Details: There is plenty of space to park a tow vehicle next to or around your trailer

We arrived on a Friday night, with the thought that we might venture back into town that night for some music. After scattering deer on the way in, we decided not to do the trip in the dark so we stayed put. The driveway was as described but on the way out the next day it was easy peasy. This place is magical. The kind of experience that makes us love boondockers welcome. Crazy that places like this exist and we would have never known!

It was a very peaceful stay right off the Blue Ridge Parkway. Robin’s directions/explanations were very useful regarding the drive in, including the bumpy driveway to the property. But we had no issues with our Class B, even in the rain. We watched the deer darting across the pasture as we drank our coffee and I’ll bet the stars would have been beautiful if it wasn’t cloudy..Robin was very communicative and a super host!

Robin and Doug are great hosts. Friendly and helpful with local recommendations. The last 1/2 mile is best to do in daylight though we succeded in darkness with excellent directions. Should expect a bumpy and curvy last 1/2 mile but RV made it fine.

Robin and Doug are very friendly and generous. We felt like we had been transported to another planet because we couldn't see any people or cars. We didn't hear any noise except for the sound of insects. We truly enjoyed the peaceful night.
