Property Description
Your search for the ideal luxury home with incredible mountain views is over! Welcome to SKYTOP RETREAT, a spectacular home overlooking the Johns River Gorge and offering 50 mile layered mountain views from nearly every room!
If you want to see the best views around you'll need to go off pavement. This home is accessed by a very steep gravel road. 4WD or AWD vehicles are absolutely required year-round, and during winter months chains may also be necessary. All guests going to Skytop Retreat must drive respectfully and slowly through the neighborhood. There is a garage with room for 2 cars, and room for 2 more cars to park outside. It is a shared driveway and the neighborhood has one-lane gravel roads. Please see more details below.
As you enter the home, you'll move through the foyer into the dining room. This welcoming space features a table with seating for 10 people, so there's plenty of room for everyone to pull up a chair and break bread together. A few steps down from the dining room leads you into the great room with its soaring ceilings, stone gas log fireplace, TV, and glass double doors to the open deck. The kitchen is at the rear of the great room, and is a chef's dream with Viking brand stainless steel appliances, granite counters, huge island, custom cabinetry, warming drawer, and a variety of helpful small appliances including a food processor, blender, hand mixer, slow cooker, and a rice cooker. The pantry offers an built-in ice maker for your convenience, as well.
Skytop Retreat features several options for those who want to have some fun, kick back, and relax. The lower level has a den area with comfortable couches arranged around a big screen TV, BluRay player and an XBox360, as well as a shuffleboard table and a multi-game arcade cabinet stocked with all the classics from the golden age of games. Of course, don't miss the ever-changing awe inspiring mountain views from your seat on the deck! During the winter months you can hear the sounds of flowing water and see a small waterfall to the left of the house, and those nimble enough to navigate can enjoy seeing it up close on the cleared pathway to it. And there's simply no better way to relax than a nice long soak under the stars in the hot tub on the side deck.
There are four bedrooms as well as a private sleeping loft, giving Skytop Retreat a total of five sleeping areas. The main level offers a bedroom with a Queen bed, a fireplace, and an attached full bathroom with a shower. Upstairs you'll find the loft with a Queen bed, and down the hall is the luxurious master bedroom suite with a King bed and ensuite bathroom with champagne soaking tub and separate tiled shower. Downstairs on the lower level are two more bedroom suites. One offers a King bed and the second offers a Queen bed, and both bathrooms have a tub/shower in them. There's even a full-sized folding portable crib with mattress stored in an upstairs closet, along with a booster set, perfect for the littlest guest to use.
Skytop Retreat invites you and your loved ones to relax and renew your souls in this special slice of the mountains. No matter what you do here in the High Country, you'll love coming home to Skytop Retreat!

Testimonials
Travel Crew Winter VacayBy Kimberly On 01/18/2021
This property was absolutely beautiful!! The pictures do not do it justice. The views from every room were incredible. The place was super clean and the kitchen had every kind of pot or pan or gadget you needed to cook pretty much anything. We would highly recommend this place if you have a large family. We were 5 couples and each couple had their own bedroom space and their own bathroom. The fireplaces were great and the heat worked very well! The house is also stocked with plenty of games even an arcade game. We had a great time in this house and we will definitely be back! Remember to make sure you have 4 wheel drive if you visit in winter. It was snowing quite a bit while we were there and we were glad we had the 4 wheel drive.

We had a great stay at Skytop retreat over the holidays. The property was just as described with beautiful views and accommodations. It was such a nice bonus that they had decorated for the holidays. This is the best equipped kitchen I have ever had in a rental. Not only enough pans and dishes to make full meals, but everything was high quality in beautiful condition. The kids made great use of the hot tub and the game room. The gas log fireplaces were so easy to use and gave the whole home a cozy feel. Blue Ridge made the process very easy providing the details we needed in a timely fashion. The branded welcome gift on arrival was such a nice touch. We would look again to rent this property or another of theirs in the future.
