About the Property
Small hills and slopes throughout the land on the property. Rocky and grassy turf, River rock walkways and medium to large rocks throughout the land.

Deerfield Treasure

My husband camped in the George Washington National Forest for many years until giving that up for health reasons. I found this sweet guest house, which was perfect for us and our dog Cookie. The decor is enchanting and the place was spotless. Michelle was friendly and welcoming, and she thought of special touches to make the visit a great experience. Although the kitchen facilities were limited, we used the mini-fridge and microwave to prepare a nice dinner that we ate at the cute kitchen table. We particularly enjoyed the deck. Most of all we appreciated that Michelle allowed Cookie to accompany us on what might be Jeff’s last visit to a place he loves.
