Wonderful stay in downtown Haysi, Virginia, in the loft above a delightful music store. Place was as advertised and very comfortable. Hosts were very accommodating. Come in October for the crooked music road festival in Haysi.

The room was great, clean, fun decor etc. It wasnt clear which doors needed to be locked upstairs so we used the back door which was off the alleyway which was quite dark at night.

It was much better than expected in a small town in the middle of coal country. If you need to be in this area, it is by far the best options for a couple nights

Perfect rental in a fun little town

Can't think of a bad thing to say about this property. It was a great option for that area. I had a couple of questions and Rita answered me quickly and it was just a great stay.

Cozy and Relaxing

We had a fantastic stay! The unit was beautifully maintained, clean, and exactly as described. The location was perfect for everything we needed, and the owner's communication was top-notch; quick, clear, and full of helpful local recommendations that made our trip even better. Truly appreciated the hospitality. Thank you again!

We booked this place when we couldn't get a room at the lodge in Breaks, and we're glad we found this gem! Absolutely lovely loft, super clean with a great new shower and a comfortable porch out back. The loft was very well-stocked with everything we could need. We absolutely look forward to coming back again!

Had a great stay in Haysi! What a friendly community. Love seeing this small town in the midst of creating such a welcoming atmosphere. Loved the loft. It is such a great space. If you ever got “rained out”, you would be happy being stuck I doors here with the great outside covered porch. We brought a home cooked meal for our first night and walked to Pizza Plus just one block away after our day at Breaks Interstate Park. It’s about a 15 minute super windy drive to the park. We highly recommend this property. It is fun and a bit funky. Great space with an awesome bathroom, solid WiFi, and good tv.

Weekend Getaway

Loft was super cute, fit our needs for a wedding in Grundy that brought us to that area. Definitely recommend saving the code (for the door) on your phone prior to getting to the area due to lack of service. The hosts were very easy to get ahold of when needed.

Unique property in Haysi

We had a quick overnight stay at the Loft. Bed was very comfortable. We didn’t use the kitchen. Owner/host replied quickly. We would stay again. FYI- things you’ll need to bring are bath soap, bottled water if desired, coffee and tea.

A good surprise

The lofts are great! So unexpected. The rooms are beautifully decorated and large. Furnishings are excellent and our time there was very enjoyable. Also, I need to know if that Rita went out of her way to be helpful and accommodating. I couldn’t be more satisfied.

Cute place

This was a really cute place. A little further from the Breaks state park than we expected. Had a few minor issues, but nothing major. Wife tore the bottom of her foot due to a nail sticking up from the floor. And the mice had a feast from our snack bag.

Space is true to it's name, a hidden gem in this beautiful area of SW Virginia. There was a little more access to a store or two nearby than I'd previously gathered, although just a heads-up, the adjacent coffee shop wasn't open on Saturday or Sunday. Would definitely stay here again, and would stay longer next time. The kayaks are an awesome extra, but it was hard for us to figure out locally where was the best place to use them. If you're staying here and heading to Breaks Park, it's about a 15 minute (very curvy) drive. Well worth the price, the experience was great!

Haysi is a cute little Mountain town just 15 min from the Breaks Interstate Park. There are a few restaurants and a decent Convenience store with a Subway. The Lofts were quiet and centrally located. The back Patio was furnished and lit. Amazing Bed and shower head. There was a Grill and Hot plate for cooking as well as a Microwave. The area has many runnable streams for kayaking or fishing nearby. ATV trails criss-cross the area. Take an Elk Tour in the Fall or Spring at the Park.Truly the last bit of Frontier left in Virginia.

Disliked: Location

Quiet

The location was clean. There’s no stove and really no restaurants nearby unless you want pizza. The deck/back porch was dusty with leaves everywhere and some of the furniture was unsafe to sit on. Just be aware in case you have allergies. Inside is nice but there are multiple doors and we were unsure which areas we had access to. Overall very peaceful and quiet. We felt like we were the only people in the entire town after the businesses closed. People in the area are very friendly. If you don’t mind doing a little driving, I would recommend this location
