We had a fantastic time staying at the Whispering Pines! The house was spotless and had everything we could need. I was especially impressed with how well appointed the kitchen was. It was a great location - secluded but just a quick few minute drive into the heart of town.

Wonderful!

We really enjoyed our stay! Such a cute house in beautiful Bedford county! We attended the fall foliage festival, as we have been for years, and decided to give this house a try. It was stocked with everything we needed, it was very clean and maintained, and we absolutely loved relaxing in the hot tub and having a fire at night. Would definitely stay again!

The house was immaculate; fully appointed kitchen; comfortable furniture. We appreciated your attention to details - mosquito repellent, extra blankets & pillows, a stack of firewood, brooms & sweeper and so much more - absolutely everything you would expect to find in a home!

What a fantastic place!

This was hands down the best vacation rental I have ever stayed at. The house was beautiful, had plenty of space, and so many amenities--the hosts went above and beyond to make sure your stay was wonderful. Little touches, like providing toothbrushes if you forgot them, doggy poop bags, etc. etc. The outdoor space is so wonderful with the fire pit and hot tub. Would definitely stay again!
