VMI Reunion Getaway
Beautiful place and perfect for our VMI reunion with some old friends. We also thoroughly enjoyed the "neighbors"--a mama bear and her 3 cubs. Definitely on our list for a place to return....thank you so much!

Perfect get away
Erin is so hospitable and a great host. The property is gorgeous….we wished it didn’t rain while we were there, so we could have explored the trails. Everything was just perfect.

Best rental ever!
My friends and I were in town for a wedding. The house far exceeded our expectations. The property was BEAUTIFUL and peaceful. There was a lot of privacy in addition to a lot of amenities. The cottage has everything we needed and more. The hosts were wonderful and accommodating. There was soft music and the lights were on when we arrived. They also had farm fresh eggs in the fridge and offered to save us a trip to the store. They let us check out two hours late because there was no one else checking in. The beds were comfortable and the view was gorgeous. They have put so much thought into every aspect of the cottage. The pictures do not do it justice! Will definitely be back if we are in the area again!

About the host

Hosted by Erin or Doug Kneer

Host profile image
Loving Christian family. We fell in love with the people in Lexington the first time we visited and decided it was the best place to raise our three children. We traded the sunny beaches in Florida for the cool mountain breezes.

What makes this property unique

The sounds of nature will ease your stress away. You will feel far away from the world but only ten minutes from town. You can walk/hike the trails or walk the mile-long driveway. Relax at the fire pit and feel safe to let your children wander. Close to VMI, W&L, and Natural Bridge Zoo.
