This 1800 Sq. foot home is located in the historic mill town of Fries, VA. The beautiful New River flows by our small village on it's way up north. 'The New River Trail' follows the river from Fries to Pulaski for over fifty miles. It is a 'Rails to Trails' project for bikers, hikers and horses. There is very little incline or decent and you will find trestles, a tunnel, beautiful wild flowers, shoals and lots of cool shade in mostly secluded deep woodlands. The fishing is great along with canoeing, tubing and kayaking.

Blue Grass Music is plentiful with The Galax Fiddlers Convention and Fries Fiddlers Convention the second and third weeks in August.

The house is only 14 miles from the most visited National Park, 'The Blue Ridge Parkway' and the Blue Ridge Music Center.

For those of you with wonderlust there are lots of narrow dirt and paved roads with pastures, mountains, creeks and valleys to explore.

    I loved the decor inside the house, it was comfortable and welcoming. I wish I had known the downstairs bathroom only had a tub. That did not work well for my elderly mother.

    The front porch of this home is just as inviting in-person as this picture implies... awesome home! We had 4 adults and each had our own comfy bed. Perfect! Terrific kitchen, comfortable dining room, living room & TV room. We loved being only minutes to the New River Trailhead. We appreciated this wonderful home has a washer & dryer. We also enjoyed the local Fries Steak House for dinner. Rachel & Richard are great hosts! They communicate well, are flexible, and provided everything we needed and then some. I highly recommend this property!

    Our stay was great. When we walked in the front door we felt at home. The house was very clean and beds were very comfortable. The perfect place to make memories.

    Loved meeting Richard. He came to the rescue when we were cold. Rachel was great at responding to questions. Loved being abke to sit on front pirch this morning and enjoy our coffee. If you are in the area this is a great place to stay. We rode bikes on the New River Trail. Went and found the two tunnels. We had a great time for 67 to 73 year olds!

    We had a wonderful stay at Nanas place in Fries. The house is lovely and a great place to relax after a long day of riding. We also enjoyed the proximity to live music as we were able to experience the Thursday night Jam at the Theater in Fries and a wonderful concert at the Blue Ridge Music Center on the Parkway. Will definitely consider staying at Nanas Place again!

    We stayed at Nana's place for a couple of nights so that we could ride a portion of the New River State Park trail on our bikes. The house was exactly as pictured with lots of homey touches and comfortable furniture. The hosts have done a great job anticipating guests' needs and planning for them. We loved sitting out on the front porch swing in the cool of the evening listening to the night noises. We were fortunate to be able to park right in front of the house but in the event on-street parking is not available there is convenient parking behind the house via a paved lane. We stayed in the upstairs queen bedroom which was very comfortable. The house was conveniently located close to one of the entrances to the bike trail. In addition to our bike ride we learned about a Thursday acoustic music night at the historic Fries Theatre from the host's information notebook. We were glad we attended; if you are in Fries on a Thursday night and like acoustic music it is a must-attend event. Thanks to Rachel and Richard for everything, especially the Oreos! :-)

    This was the perfect place to stay. The owners were so nice. The house is well appointed with everything you need! My 2 Sisters and I stayed here and we all had plenty of space. The neighborhood was quiet and it was so relaxing. We played cards, watched movies and just sit out on the porch and talked. What a great time we had!
