Claytor Lake Hideaway
About this house rental
Located in Claytor Lake, this charming house for $337 per night is a great option for your next trip. Tucked away in a quiet corner of the lake, Claytor Lake Hideaway sits on a small bluff overlooking the water. Early risers can enjoy the sunrise from the double-decker dock, while night owls will enjoy the cozy fire pit beside the house. Enjoy the lake views while relaxing or dining on the screened-in back porch. You’re only 10 minutes from the interstate, but, as the name implies, you’ll feel like you’re deep in the woods. Stay a week and explore the New River Valley - you're only 15 minutes to access on the 55 mile scenic New River Trail (biking and hiking trail), 15 minutes to the Draper Village (restaurant, tea room, eclectic shopping, bike rentals, massage therapy, agritourism), 25 minutes to Foster Falls State Park (horseback riding, kayak/canoe access) and 15 minutes to Claytor Lake State Park (beach area, motorized boat rentals, easy hiking trails). Virginia Tech is 35 min away, while Radford University is 25 min away. Some notes: - Parking: The driveway can accommodate four vehicles. If you have more, let us know and we can advise. Boat trailer parking will work if you don't have too many other cars. Drive is not suitable for turn-arounds with a trailer. Here's a video of the driveway (just copy the link & paste into browser): https://youtu.be/gJb2z-Lj8tU - Internet: Internet choices are limited due to the location. The house has a Verizon mobile jet pack hotspot. The cell signal varies day-to-day (ie, one day you might be able to stream a movie, and the next day not; speeds range from 10Mbps - 25+Mbps). - Accessibility: The house is very accessible for those with mobility impairments, the dock however, is not. As you’ll see in the pictures, the house sits atop a steep hill overlooking the lake. The dock is reached via a staircase with 65 steps (see the video in the Photos section to watch the descent/ascent...it's really not that bad!). :-)

This property had pros and cons and things we wished we had known beforehand. It took us over an hour to maneuver our small 16 ft boat into the drive. The coded box to retrieve the key had no instructions other than a code. A quick call to the owner resolved the issue. The furniture inside and out is well past their prime and not comfortable. The internet was non existent while we were there. The house was clean, just outdated. The kitchen was well stocked. There are 79 stairs to the dock. They have a hand rail and are very sturdy. The air conditioner in the living room and the fans in the bedroom did a good job in keeping the house cool during the day. The weather was beautiful!

The home was very comfortable as were the beds! Great location w a wonderful screened-in porch. Water views and a double decker dock. The stairs down were easy but this out of shape girl had a hard time on the way back up. Great spot for fishing or just taking in the view. Definitely recommend for those wanting to unplug but have the comforts of home.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. The house was as pictured
and comfortable. The only item that was inaccurate was the amount of steps down to the dock. The picture shows what I would consider 2 flights of steps. In reality it was 4 to 5 flights that are not pictured. By the third day the effort of going down and up the steps discouraged us from fully utilizing the dock and outside seating area. The host was great with communicating an issue that was resolved prior to our arrival. As stated in the listing, the Wifi was very weak and we had almost no cell service until we were out on the road.

Although we rented this property because my daughter was graduated college, I would most definitely return! The house was beautiful and comfortable! The porch and dock were my favorite places! Despite the number of stairs down to the dock, it was worth every step!!! I want to go back when it is warmer and I can rent a boat!!! The owners were wonderful to deal with!!

Cabin tucked in the woods on the water
Great spot for a little get away. Close to town yet you feel like your far enough away for relaxation. Wonderful dock and lake views. Amenities are average and we had what we needed.

Will visit again !!!
We had a very pleasant stay in this secluded cabin . Sherry is very quick with responses & answered all our queries before & during the stay readily . The floating deck was our most favorite place . The view is very serene & beautiful .Only thing we wished better were the linens provided & definitely cleaner crockery. An addition of hot tub may be:-) The cabin just needs a little pick me up here & there . But its worth a place to come back again !
Thank you Sherry for all your help .

Really enjoyed dock and location on lake. Also like listing says convenient to others attraction and Walmart also 10 minutes away. Kitchen was very well stocked and plenty of towels.
Beds were a little soft and was a little sad to only have one air conditioning unit in main area. Not bedrooms . Nights do usually cool off and host was super responsive and helpful. Would go back.

My family and I had a wonderful time in early July. The water was great and the top deck was fantastic and the screened in porch was great although I don’t recall any bugs/insects. The bunks were great for kids and two full size bedrooms and the two bathrooms were sizable. Kitchen was well stocked with pans/pots etc. great stay
