My husband & I needed rest and relaxation and the stay at Elmo's Rest farmhouse did not disappoint!! It's remote enough in the gorgeous Blue Ridge Mountains for peace & quiet but close enough to town (about 17 minute drive) to get to the grocery store, gas station, and very yummy Joe's Coffee Shack where I got a Caramel Machiatto everyday :) Definitely book this if you want to retreat and spend time alone or with your family! ##### Ringwood S.

Jun 25, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Better than the pictures This was an amazing stay on the farm. The pictures definitely do not so it justice. The house in an old farm house and it is decorated to match. The orchard has so many animals to see and the landscape is just beautiful. The host answer questions quickly and go above and beyond to meet your needs and wants. Highly recommend. ##### Shannon E. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Susan B. Oct 14, 2023 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Peaceful and private This is a charming, old farmhouse full of antiques. Despite the occasional sloping floors and doors that need an extra push and jiggle to close, there have been a number of upgrades in the house including bathrooms and gas fireplaces in the rooms. This is a working orchard and vineyard open to the public, but the house is set away from that area and remains quite private and peaceful during their operating hours. Great fun to visit with the farm animals and get fresh eggs from the chickens in the morning. Kitchen is tiny and there is no dishwasher, but all the appliances are in good shape. If you like fancy with a nearby social and entertainment scene, this may not be the place for you. If you like the country, farm smells, roosters crowing, cows mooing, and a place to curl up with a good book, this could be the place for you. ##### Susan B. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kevin W. Feb 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Country living, country hospitality 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. ##### Kevin W.
