Meet The Host

Hello! My name is Jennifer. My husband Dave and I lived in Lexington for 5 years and now reside in Richmond Virginia. Our kitchen was renovated with an open concept in 2016 . We also built a 1000 square foot stone patio in the backyard! We love the Mountain Views and relaxing weekends at the house! We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Note: The Blue Ridge Parkway is closed whenever there is ice or snow as it is not scraped or treated by the highway department. If GPS routes you this way, check to make sure it is open before setting out for travel.
