* Please read all before booking* Get cozy in this rustic retreat. The Loft is a private top-level studio inside the Barn house at Knobbyshire Farm. From the blue door on the front porch, take the stairs up to a large, inviting space with a queen bed, cozy fireplace, kitchenette, dining table, and snuggly sofas. After a day of hiking, skiing, or canoeing, take a luxurious bath in the elegant stand-alone tub while sipping local wines. Or soak in the hot tub on the front porch as the sun sets. ** PLEASE read entire description before booking** The Loft is a 720 square foot space with wood ceilings, skylights, a luxury bathroom, work desk, kitchenette, and cozy dining space. A perfect honeymoon suite or writer’s retreat, the Loft sits atop a Barn House building which houses two other separate and private units below. The farm is a work-in-progress and guests booking dates in 2024 may see or hear us working to finish the final touches on the main level of the barn as well as working on other structures like gazebos, tree houses, or wood sheds around the 23 acre property. The farm will also have other guests enjoying the camping opportunities like our camper listing or, in the future, our covered wagon listing. The road to our property is only a few hundred feet from the main road, but it is still quite bumpy and will require a sturdy vehicle. Winter months will require a 4 wheel drive vehicle to handle the possible snow. Please note that we, as well as our neighbors, have farm animals who may crow, bleat, or moo in the early morning hours. During hunting season, you may hear loud gunfire from the shooting range behind the rescue squad. The sound is startling, but the range is pointed in the opposite direction so is safe for us and our guests. There is a front porch area designated for Loft guests only. Guests will have access to this side of the porch and the entire space of the Loft level. Guests can roam the farm as long as they stay within our property lines and avoid crossing into the neighbor’s land (marked with a single wire fencing.) Loft guests will have their own outdoor area with a fire pit and lounge chairs. The fire pit near the camper is designated for camper guests only. I am always available by phone or text if you need anything. I’m not aways on site, but when I am, I will be happy to help you with anything you may need. Stanley is a small town minutes from Luray Caverns, Shenandoah National Park, Lake Arrowhead, Massanutten Resort, wineries, breweries, and public boat slips into the Shenandoah River. Feeling adventurous? Enjoy canoeing, tubing, horseback riding, zip lining, hiking, shooting, traversing ropes courses, and corn mazes, all within minutes. If you're feeling more leisurely, enjoy strolling through museums, antique shops, art galleries, wineries, and even a small rescue zoo. At Knobbyshire Farm, feel the wonders of a mountain getaway while also being walking distance from a supermarket and pizza shop. From US highway 340, Knobbyshire Farm is just a few hundred feet down an old bumpy road, and requires a sturdy vehicle. During snowy or icy weather, an all wheel drive vehicle is required. Please be aware of this before booking during winter months. Parking is free in our large gravel driveway.
