Nellieâs Homeplace is a historic cabin located on a 100-acre Century Farm at the base of Sauratown Mountain. The cabin holds many memories and historical significance from the last 100+ years on the farm. Nellie, the grandmother of one of the current owners, was born in the cabin and lived there for several years of her childhood.

This was a delightful getaway for my in-laws, who live a couple hours away and are getting too old for the rigors of camping. The host, Vickie, went above and beyond to accommodate them and make them feel at home. That meant helping them find their way to the property, and after they departed, mailing something to them they had left behind. The house and the host were everything you could ask for, and we would highly recommend.
Nellieâs log cabin is a real gem! Nestled in the woods on a working farm, this cabin is surrounded by beautiful hardwoods and faces a picturesque pond. It is peaceful and quiet and there is no traffic noise- only the sounds of birds, bullfrogs and chirping crickets. It is very close to Hanging Rock State Park. The hostess is extremely responsive and very helpful with any questions or concerns and the cabin upon arrival was absolutely spotless. This was one of the best places weâve ever stayed! We definitely want to return.
This property was a pleasant surprise. Private, cozy and clean.
A perfect place to relax and get away to a beautiful setting and peaceful.
I didn't want to leave.
We had a wonderful stay. The cabin was fully modernized. Everything was comfortable. Towels and bedding were high quality. Kitchen was fully equipped. There were many nice touches with seasonal decor and little extras to make our stay more comfortable. The farm was beautiful. Would highly recommend.
Always immaculately clean with beautiful, peaceful surroundings. Couldnât ask for a nicer place. Bed is super comfortable and there were plenty of towels for our week long stay. This is our second time staying here and canât wait to come back again. Thanks Vickie!
Great place to relax. Very quiet and peaceful. Wonderful views and scenic drive. Short drive to Pilot Mtn and Mt Airy. We had a great time walking around Mt Airy and at Jolo winery. I highly recommend staying here.
My wife and I had a great stay. It was the perfect place for us. We are country people and enjoyed the scenery and the cottage. Our host was always communicating with us and made us feel at home. Thanks
We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at the cabin. Such a beautiful location, quiet, private, clean and everything else you would look for. Great communication with the manager. Can't say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay.. We'll certainly come back again.
I can't say enough good things about the cabin, the location, the decor, attention to detail... It was love at first sight! Hope to be able to stay again soon!
We stayed at the cabin for 7 weeks while we waited for our new home. I could not have chosen a better place to stay. It is very inviting and peaceful. I enjoyed watching the deer and other wildlife while sitting on the front porch. Vickie was the perfect host and very accommodating. The cabin is very comfortable. So glad we chose this as our home away from home. Thank you Vickie!
Couldn't have asked for a better stay! Vickie literally thought of everything and then some. The little extra touches like coffee and snacks were greatly appreciated! We made use of those after long days on the trails! Property was spotless and very close to hiking which is what brought us to the area. Will definitely return if we're ever in the area again! Thanks again for giving us the opportunity to stay in your family home!
My wife and I were attending a conference in Winston Salem, and wanted to stay away from city hubub. This cabin provided a escape from city. It was neat and clean, nicely arranged space. Very comfortable and quiet. It had basic pans, oven, microwave, plates and cups, not anything extra. Nice place overall, would recommend, there is another house a stones throw up the hill, but we were not bothered by anyones coming and going.
This is a beautiful log house located on a 100 acre farm in rural Stokes County. The road leading to the cabin winds through our farm with mountain views on both sides of the road. It is a quiet and peaceful location. A good place to relax and get away.
