Claytor Lake waterfront, near Blacksburg, VT, RU, Blue Ridge and more.

Private, spacious log home on 5 acres of Claytor Lake waterfront. Off I81, only 35 min from Blacksburg and VT. Large floor plan with two dining areas and lots of room to relax and entertain, both inside and out. Private dock with canoe and room for yard games. BBQ and enjoy the quiet by the fire pit or look for resident bald eagles. The warmth of the wood and quiet surrounding will make you sleep soundly. Please note the water is shallow around the dock and great for kids and pets. Large gatherings are not permitted, maximum occupancy is 9 and booking guest must be main contact on site.

Wonderful Getaway for the Family!
The house was a wonderful stay for my daughter's graduation from VT. A beautiful location on the lake, and not too far from Blacksburg. It was clean and very well appointed, and the owners very responsive. Would return!

Fantastic, beautiful house
I rented this house for the weekend of my son's graduation from Radford. All of our family and friends raved about how awesome the house is.. my son said it looks like Kevin Costner's house on Yellowstone. A great plus is that the house is dog friendly, my Chihuahua loved it too. Thanks for being a great host.

College friend reunion
Beautiful location and home. Spacious and accommodating. Conveniently located to VT, Cascades hike (both beautiful 45 minute drives) and the New River trail right down the road. We enjoyed the kayak provided. Wonderful coming home to the lake house!

Exceeded Expectations
We could not have been happier. After hastily departing from another location due to an infestation of bugs discovered in the bed sheets, we found this location and the owner was happy to oblige a same-day check in. The cabin was spotless, the views were amazing, and we can't wait to go back next year!

Great family home
My husband and I spent Thanksgiving at this house with daughter, son in law and 3 grandchildren. The house is spacious and comfortable. We spent time inside and out. Grandkids loved the outdoor volleyball court and indoor shuffleboard. They also enjoyed the media room. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything you could need for meal preparation.

Fantastic Stay
Just returned from a week-long family vacation at this beautiful property on Claytor Lake in Draper, VA. The large home had everything needed and was comfortably appointed with many extras to include pool table, shuffleboard table, canoe, kayak, movie room and more. We enjoyed exploring the area including Drapers Mercantile just down the road, rented a ski boat at Claytor Lake State Park, and Ziplining near Floyd, VA. Would definitely recommend and hope to return in the future.

Huge Lakeside Cabin!
We were absolutely thrilled with this no frills huge cabin sitting on a beautiful lot right on the Claytor Lake. We hiked the New River Trail (5 minutes to the Draper lot), paddled the lake, enjoyed a movie night in the downstairs theater room, played pool in the great room and all had plenty of office space to get some work done as well (although the internet was a bit slow). Absolutely an amazing place averaging 10 deer each night watching us eat dinner. Fantastic and relaxing vacation!

Beautiful serene property
Such a peaceful place! From coffee on the deck overlooking the lake, to a family bbq with games, to sitting around the fire with a glass of wine, we truly enjoyed our stay! Even our pup had a great time catching frisbees on the huge lawn and checking out the water! Would definitely recommend and would stay here again in the future! The upstairs bedrooms have only twin beds with very high mattresses so really only good for children, wouldn’t recommend for very small children or elderly.

Second Stay
We have a yearly trip to commemorate our mom. This is our second stay. The property is lovely. There's really one master bedroom, two kids rooms, a game room with a futon, and a basement room with no windows. It works fine for us. The kitchen is fully stocked. There was some weird trash, the desk in the game room was full of candy and the fireplace was full of old voided checks. My sister said there was white pet fur on the master bed. Regardless, we had a wonderful time. The proximity to the Draper Mercantile was perfect.

Relaxing and well provisioned
This home is beautiful and extremely comfortable. We appreciated all of the TVs, the billiards room, and the very well appointed kitchen. We like to cook and bake, so it was wonderful to have all of the necessary pots pans and utensils on hand. We are not local to the area, so we were not aware of the drought or the status of the lake in front of the property. Sort of a downer upon arrival in that we thought we would be on the water. We enjoyed the dock except our dogs would not stay out of the mud and we had to bathe them. We are hoping to return next year for a longer stay!

Peaceful & Reinvigorating
An absolutely peaceful, reinvigorating family get-away location! We could not have been happier with our stay. Tim was very helpful and responsive from the beginning. It was an easy drive from the DC area. The pictures are a true representation of the property and its character. The house is spacious and cozy, with more space than we anticipated. The kitchen was large and well equipped for us to prep and serve a large Sunday meal for the family; also, there is a grocery within about 10 to 15-minute drive if you forget any food items. There are options to choose from if you want to relax outside, a beautiful front porch with a swing, a back porch off the main level, a lower back patio with comfy oversized chairs, and even a lovely screened in sitting area. The yard was spacious and well-kept and sloped easily to the water, which was calm and shallow for wading—our pup loved both! There were plenty of areas to go walking/hiking, but keep in mind that parking for the park areas is $7 and we found it easier to pay in cash. Connectivity was quite slow! (This is not a complaint!) If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat where you can end your day watching the deer peruse the property, and wake-up to the songs of the birds outside and enjoy a cup of coffee while enjoying the peaceful water as you decide how to spend your day, this is the place to be. Thanks again, Tim, for sharing your place with us!

Relaxing getaway with older kids and friends
This property was great for our group and we will stay here again. Perfect for teens and young adults. I would recommend older children here. The house had everything we needed (linens, towels, kitchen and laundry supplies). The house is great! As mentioned, the water is shallow and the dock is older. I would recommend water shoes. It was fantastic for floating on tubes and our teenage boys loved wading to the sand bar out in the lake. We were surprised to learn we had access to a neighborhood boat ramp for the jet sky. Perfect area for that. We rented a pontoon from the marina about 15 minutes away for a perfect lake day. Just a note this house is below the lighthouse bridge and you cannot access it with the rental boats. The yard slopes gently to a row of trees and then down to the lake. Great space for yard games. ( You cannot see the dock/kids from the lower level of the house which is fine with older kids). My husband had great luck fishing from the canoe below the bluffs across the lake. I would like to visit in cooler weather to enjoy the very nearby New River Trail. We enjoyed a trip to the cute Draper Merc. House amenities were wonderful and the lake/yard area suited our needs perfectly. The owner was a little slow to respond prior to our trip, but be patient, I am confident that is because he prioritizes the current guest as he did with us while we were there. Great experience overall. Thanks Tim!

A football game plus a whole lot more
A spacious home in a perfect setting. Thoughtfully furnished for large groups. The setting is serene and peaceful with lots to do in the immediate vicinity. Really enjoyed Draper Mercantile, the new ice cream shoppe and the Spinning Jenny Winery, all within five minutes. Deer everywhere you look in the mornings. Would definitely recommend and book again.
