Bobcat Bungalow

Comments From Our Guests


May 8 - 11, 2008
"Our family found the perfect place to help celebrate our daughter's graduation from Virginia Tech. We saw wonderful sunrises each day, as we rose to attend an event on campus. Each afternoon and evening we returned to this beautifully appointed "cabin" to have lunch and dinner and take lovely walks. By Saturday, we sat on the porch and took in the views of the glorious mountains.
The quiet was a reprieve from our busy days and gave us time to rest and reflect. The kitchen, dining, and living room were very comfortable for our visiting family and gave us the great space to spread out and relax. Though five of us stayed, our daughter, her boyfriend and our son came for dinner on Saturday and we easily had supper around the table just like at home! The barbeque allowed us to create incredible salmon, skirt steak, and marvelous roasted veggies. Where other guests saw birds of all types, we ate foods of all kinds. The kitchen and grill were well stocked and we loved the blackberry jam, which we all agreed was the best we have ever tasted. Thank you so much for the tasty treat!
The walk was great and gave us the much needed exercise from a long ride each day. We took the Cougar loop and then headed to the pasture to visit with the horses, sheep, cows, and llamas. We spotted "tree mushrooms" and many blackberry bushes.
We all have wonderful memories of the graduation and our fabulous stay at the Bobcat Bungalow. This is a rare find that was such a pleasant surprise! Thanks!!!"

"What a wonderful cabin!! We enjoyed our quiet restful time, the beautiful views, steaks on the grill, and the fireplace burning last night. We have been friends for over 30 years and rarely see each other so this was a great time to share laughter and friendship."

"This cabin was far beyond our expectations! We walked the beautiful trails during the day and built fires at night. Our children were able to really experience nature in its fullest. The beds were comfy, the jam was yummy, and the scenery breathtaking...We will recommend this to everyone who truly wants to get away!"

" It has only been two months since we were here and we are back again for another great weekend. We just needed a weekend of peace and quiet and to spend some time together. We enjoyed sitting in front of the fire as the rain came down hard outside. We really do enjoy the cabins here. We plan to return as much as possible. (The blackberry preserves are to die for!)"

"We enjoyed our stay at the Bobcat Bungalow - it is so warm and inviting. Our dog, Maggie Mae loved the trails and retiring by the wood stove. This morning we watched a herd of deer feeding in the pasture. Thank you for sharing your private reprieve and the blackberry jam was out of this world."

"We are back once again. In '03 we stayed at the Cougar Ridge Cabin and loved it. When our 15th wedding anniversary came we wanted a quiet getaway and so we thought of the Indian Creek Cabins. The Bobcat Bungalow was a wonderful place to stay to celebrate our anniversary. My husband and I really enjoyed each other. The cabin in the woods was so peaceful even though the winds howled all night. On Sunday morning we awoke to a beautiful sunrise. We relaxed together all day Sunday and enjoyed each others company and we really hated to have to leave but we do plan to return one day. The owners are really great and thanks for the blackberry jam. It's a great place to stay."

"We had such a lovely weekend here in the Bobcat Bungalow. The peace and quiet was much welcomed, as well as the beautiful views. We enjoyed everything about our stay here, especially hiking on all the trails. Thanks so much for this opportunity to let us spend a relaxing and meaningful weekend together.

"Once again our stay has been delightful. The colors of the mountains were just what we hoped for. We visited Floyd this time around and found it to be such a quaint little village. We enjoyed part of our Saturday there. As always, your jam was outstanding. Many thanks; also the trails were fun and gave us plenty of exercise. We hope to visit a few times in the coming year. The porch is by far our very favorite place to relax and connect once again with our souls."Burlington, NC

October 12 - 14, 2007
"Floyd, Va has been a magical place to me since I first 'discovered' it about 10 years ago when my sister moved here. Now that she has moved away, I wanted to re-experience it's beauty and musical charms on my own. Your perfect cabin makes my dream of coming back to Floyd every October (at least) an exciting and relaxing reality! My husband and family can now experience this magical place with me in peace and comfort year after year. A new family tradition is born! What a sanctuary you have created in what is already one of my favorite places on earth. Thank you, thank you."
"Arriving late Friday night, we enjoyed the wood stove and a very quiet night. Saturday, we ate our way thru Floyd Co. from Blue Ridge Restaurant to the Bread Box. We returned at 4 p.m. to enjoy the porch, then moved to the outdoor fire ring for sunset and an evening of stars. The cottage is cozy with individually zoned rooms and we loved the east bedroom for warm, cozy sunrises. We plan to book today for this time next year."

"Although we live by the beach, our hearts remain in the mountains. My husband and I had no idea what we were getting into as we found ourselves on the front porch of the Bobcat Bungalow with the breathtaking view. Needless to say, we found the rest we were in need of, a romantic place to enjoy our one year anniversary, and a place to come home to when we long for the mountains again. See you again soon! *Bring water on the trails! Get ready for a great workout :-)*"

6) Cooking and eating good food
7) Completing two jigsaw puzzles

Thank you for sharing your place with us!"

"What a shame that we were only able to stay here one night... We enjoyed the beautiful view and the relaxing Jacuzzi while we could. After a week of vacationing with fourteen family members, a nice quiet night here was exactly what we needed. No TV, no kids, no messes to clean up. Just peace and quiet. We are already planning on who to bring with us the next time that we visit (hopefully this fall). This is a great place to work on my novel while still spending time with favorite friends and family. Hope to be back soon!
Bellbrook, OH

"We had a great anniversary weekend (#11) here at the cabin. We also experienced "Floyd Fest 6, It's in the Mix". The bands were great - the event is really well organized and lots of fun. Word to the wise - DON'T forget sunscreen! :-)
We hope to come back again soon.

"Arriving on Fri was like stepping into Heaven. The temperatures during the day were in the mid-70s and in the low 50s over night. We walked the trails (watch out for the Bobcat Loop, it's a killer), picked ripe blackberries for pancakes and ate them as we picked them (which tasted like blessed warm sweet sunshine). Sunset is an incredible experience! Watching the world settle in and pull a nice comfy blanket over itself until sunrise, when the Blue Ridge Mountains show themselves through the mist. The cabin, after running around the countryside and shopping in Floyd, was like "comin' home". The Bobcat Cottage definitely allows one to completely escape and relax."
"I found a quiet time away here in this cabin. My mind has rested and by soul has fed. I will go back to the real world refreshed and ready to carry on. Thank you."
Chapel Hill, NC

July 16, 2007
"I came with my father, mother, and sister. We wake up and look at the view from the cabin. We also went to Foster Falls, and we tubed, kyacked and fished. We also got really good pizza from Dennys. We have a campfire outside every night. To top it all off we went to the Pine Tavern to eat dinner, it was delicious. Can't wait to come back."
"Thank you for the incredible hospitality. We couldn't have asked for anything more as far as accommodations. We will hopefully be returning to see this beautiful place again.
Thank you,
Chesapeake, VA

Hillsborough, NC

Burlington, NC

"The stay at the cabin was a brilliant journey. Thank you for your unique vision - it's hard to believe you were able to make a quaint and secluded cabin feel like a private mansion in the country. The much needed time away gave us a calm, quiet sense of clarity."
The NRV

May 12-13, 2007
"Your new cabin is fantastic. Stepping into it is stepping into a place of comfort and retreat. You have thoughtfully filled it with lovely things and carefully set it in the perfect place. Your keen creativity is so much a part of the pleasure of being here. Thank you - we wish we could stay."
Houston, TX

May 4-6, 2007
"Your lovely cabin
A secret to be kept
We whispered to each other
Moments before we slept
Loopy trails and foggy mist
In the early morn, 'twas dew kissed
Every detail thought through and through
Fans on the porch, a breathtaking view
And who knew....silence could awaken
For miles and miles, ours for the taking
Magical place - we hate to go
Rest assured - we'll return
Before the year's next snow"

"We had a great visit! Birding and exploring in the day, music in Floyd at night. The cabin is beautiful, certainly the most luxurious "cabin" we've experienced. We particularly enjoyed the porch, where we cooked and ate a nice steak as the sun went down. The trails were well maintained and provided a nice tour of the valley. Hope to return!

"This makes our second stay, first at the Cougar, now the Bobcat. The joy of staying is beyond any words of greatness. The quiet time and solitude are what help to bring peace back into our souls. We look forward to our next stay in June. Once again, thanks for the jam. It was outstanding. By the way, our son and his wife found their way right to the Bobcat door and loved every minute spent here with us for the Easter holiday."

"We loved the Bobcat Cabin with it's old comfortable feeling yet modern convenience. Beautiful bathroom! I love the old wooden floors and ceilings. Just wonderful. We loved walking the trails with plentiful rhododendron, mountain laurel and all the lovely mountain plants. You have a wonderful place here. Our dog loved being able to stay too - and hiking all over the woods. This is a dog paradise. Hope we can come back soon."

"Thank you for such a nice place to stay. It was a cold weekend but the woodstove kept us cozy and warm. We loved waking up to the snow showers Saturday morning. The Bobcat Bungalow is decorated so beautifully. We had such a great time we hate to leave. It was just the getaway we so desperately needed. We hope to come back in the future. Thank you so much."
Floyd, VA

"Bobcat Bungalow was a beautiful place to stay on a chilly evening in March! Everything in the cabin was topnotch, from the wood floors, to the beautiful curtains, to the dishes in the cabinet. Aside from a beautiful house in a beautiful setting, the amenities included were wonderful. Our pup enjoyed the cabin as much as we did and having a house where pets are welcome is something you don't find much anymore. He appreciates it as much as we do! Thank you for making us feel at home! You will be seeing us again in the future.
Thanks for everything.
Radford, VA

March 2-4, 2007
"This is our second visit to Bobcat and each time proves to be more special. We both live such busy lives, with work, kids and other responsibilities, that we need to "make-time" to stop the clock! This beautiful mountain and this cottage always serve that we will leave relaxed. We don't know a better place where we can sit for hours and listen to the wind furiously bring the front in, and be so entertained! Where else can you sit in town at (Odd Fellas) and enjoy a great meal, wonderful music and meet people who really have time to get to know you!
This morning, Sunday, we awoke to discover a fresh layer of snow - it was amazing. It then made sense that the previous day's wind was busy bringing us a wonderful good-bye gift - (snow). One of our favorite past-times while staying here is to "bundle up" and sit on the porch at night and listen to the silence. You will find a quiet place in your soul very quickly - please try it and let us know if it works for you too. We believe that we have found a special place and look forward to returning in July for Floyd Fest."
Charlotte, NC

"We celebrated my husband's 40th birthday here at your Bobcat Bungalow. It was everything we expected and more. It was great to escape everyday responsibilities and yet still have all the conveniences of home. Thank you for the blackberry jam and your warm hospitality that made our stay so special. Hope to see you again real soon!
Collinsville, VA

Feb.19, 2007
"Every Presidents Day weekend we travel to a secluded spot for a quiet rejuvenation. It is hard to beat Indian Valley and Bobcat Bungalow. We just loved the wind, the snow flurries, and the warm wood stove. The accommodations here are first rate, so much better than where we have stayed in the past. We'll come again."

"What a wonderful place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city! This charming cabin proved to be the perfect medicine for two stressed-out parents after the holidays ( without the kids - of course!)
Sitting on the porch last night all bundled up, listening to the serene silence was an incredible blessing. It was truly a magical experience. When was the last time you heard nothing? Amazing!!
Thanks for your incredible hospitality. We will be back!"

"Thank you for offering such a beautiful view and warm and welcoming accommodations here at Bobcat Bungalow. We had very cold weather, but the wood stove kept us nice and toasty the whole night. We enjoyed bundling up and rocking on the rocking chairs, taking in the beautiful mountain view and rolling hills. What a wonderful discovery when we traveled into the town of Floyd and found great restaurants (we recommend Odd Fellas) and amazing works by local artists. The cabin is beautifully designed and had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend stay. We look forward to visiting again and truly appreciate the delicious blackberry jam."
Charlotte, NC

"What a treat to be the first to stay at Bobcat Bungalow! Everything is perfect - the view, the rooms, the whirlpool tub and all the little luxuries, including John's bread and Mary's jam. The weather has been warm and wonderful too. We're looking forward to coming again in July. Bobcat is a beautifully designed house in a wonderful location with tremendous views and great walks."
