What an absolute WONDERFUL stay! This was actually our second trip to this little Peace of Heaven; the first trip being in March 2025 and now this one in March 2026. This trip was just as perfect as the first one! This little house is just precious and cozy and such a relaxing place to stay. The house is so clean and stocked with so many useful things that you might need during your visit. The hosts, Pete and Darlene, really think of everything! And the view........ WOW!!! Amazing does not even describe it! I would recommend staying here in a heartbeat!!!!!

This is our 2nd stay at the retro bungalow. We love the location. We have friends that live close by. We love the area, being close to the blue ridge parkway and access to many quaint local towns. The best sky colors & sunsets.

Totally loved this place! It gave us the get away we needed. Plenty of places to sit outside and enjoy the beauty…whether it was in the front porch swing, in a chair on the back deck, in the hammock, or by the fire pit. Gorgeous view of the sunrise. This bungalow was very clean and inviting. Loved being able to take our dog with us. Appliances were all working and pots and pans available for cooking. We had a wonderful stay!

The Retro Bungalow was so unique inside and out! We loved all of the retro decor that brought back memories of our childhood. The view was gorgeous and was my favorite thing. It was so close to the Blue Ridge Parkway for proximity to hiking. Thank you Darlene for opening your special place! We will be back.
