Family Getaway
We went with a family of 15 and were very happy. Everything was clean and working. Property was very private with lots of room for everyone to spread out and do your own thing. Enjoyed the pool, hot tub, fire fit and playing corn hole in the back yard. Communication with Owner Jodi was excellent which made our trip that much easier. Looking forward to trying another one of their properties.

The most amazing property we have rented with VRBO
The trip was to celebrate two family birthdays and then our oldest granddaughter got engaged so we were overwhelmed with happiness! We could not have asked for a more perfect setting. Anything we needed was there. Jodi was wonderful and so responsive and attentive. Everyone wants to go back next year for our annual b celebration.

Great Family Getaway
This property is incredible, and it was a joy to host our large family there for 2 birthdays and the Blue Ridge Ultra race. We will certainly be making a tradition out of staying at this property. I have been going to blue ridge for years, and this is my favorite house I have ever stayed in.

Wonderful Wedding Venue
My fiancé and I rented Southern Orchard house for our wedding weekend and couldn’t have been happier! Not only was the cabin absolutely gorgeous inside and out, the hosts, Jodi and Steve, were amazing. Jodi came by to help direct traffic before the ceremony, and when the rain showers didn’t stop, she suggested we move the ceremony inside, in front of the fireplace, which ended up being the perfect setting!
