Always perfect!

This was our second year staying at the lake house. We absolutely love it. The floating picnic table and jacuzzi were both new this year. And we definitely made good use of both! Seeing as how we stay here and go to Blue Ridge Rock Fest each year and it got cancelled this year, we had PLENTY of time to enjoy everything the house had to offer. The hot tub was definitely the spot to be this year because the weather was nice and cool. We cooked family dinners, watched movies in the cinema room, and really just enjoyed each others company overall. We love the lake house. It’s our home away from him. We’ll be back!

Even better the 2nd time

This was our 2nd visit to Barefoot Retreat and we will definitely be back. The host is simply amazing. Super responsive and provides wonderful little touches around the house to make your stay super relaxing. The lake is simply beautiful, the dock has a very nice cover, host provides so many fun amenities both indoor and out. The only problem is time goes by so fast when you are having so much fun! Can't wait to return.

Anniversary Trip

The Barefoot Retreat and hosts were fabulous. This place had it all - welcoming, spacious and beautiful. The lake is secluded and quiet. When it was too hot, the game room provided ample entertainment. Two full kitchens was nice as well when your cooking for 14. Do your self a favor and book the Barefoot Retreat.

The perfect getaway!

Beautiful home and very scenic environment! Everything you could possibly want at your fingertips! House was well stocked with everything from toiletries, to amusement, to cleaning items, spices and many snacks! House was very spacious and large enough that 9 of us were not on top of each other! Thank you for sharing this amazing home with us! Great time was had by all! Management was tops and answered our needs very quickly! We will probably rent it again!

About the host

Hosted by Candice

My husband (Gary) has two children, and we have one additional child together. He is a forester and I am a civil servant. We love the lake and want to share a slice of our paradise with you.

Why they chose this property

This is our dream house. It has everything you could want and more. We love the dual kitchens. The media room and recreation room gives the kids (and those young at heart) space to enjoy some down-time. The gardens/landscaping make the outdoors a true oasis (the house was even featured in Better Homes & Garden and Southern Living) with the babbling goldfish pond - just beware, the sprinkler near the pond is motion activated so the local deer don't destroy it.
