Vacation rentals in Big Stone Gap

We had a truly wonderful stay at Skipping Stones Getaway with our family of five. From the moment we arrived, it felt like a peaceful retreat—surrounded by beautiful views and the kind of quiet that instantly helps you unwind. Christie and Donaven have thought of everything. The house was fully stocked with all the essentials (and then some). From extra phone charging cables to those little items you might forget to pack, it was clear they’ve put a lot of care and attention into making guests feel at home. We spent our days out on the lake kayaking, soaking up the calm and beauty of the surroundings, and our evenings enjoying quality time together around the fire. It was the perfect mix of fun and relaxation. Skipping Stones Getaway is the kind of place you want to return to. Highly recommend for anyone looking to slow down, recharge, and make lasting memories in a truly lovely setting.

Great house with an amazing view. It was nice that the host left a Christmas tree up for our celebration. The beds were very comfortable. We communicated a few maintenance issues to the host. Overall it was great for our family to meet up for the holidays.

We had an amazing time during our stay. The views are incredible and Benson was a gracious host.

10/10 would stay here again! The place was perfect for our vacation. The house was very clean and we were able to relax. It was a slice of heaven!

I spent 3 nights on this property , the pricing was fair for the view and the amenities. Absolutely beautiful scenery, I hate that I didn’t get to get in the lake because of the weather , but so happy they had private hot tub on the property. The hot tub itself will leave you feeling stress free lol. The house was spotless and decor was beautiful very homie. I was suppose to have 5 guest but ended up just being 3 and feel like that’s the perfect amount of guest for this house. Love it , and highly recommend if you just wanna get away and enjoy some nature.

The house is such a gem!! It was perfect for our family of 9 for Thanksgiving. We could have never left the house our entire trip because the main level is so cozy and comfortable. There is plenty of games and puzzles to keep everyone entertained. My son loved the little nook area with the bean bag. There is plenty of space to spread out with the 3 different living room areas. If you want a good workout - go for a walk! The house is at a higher elevation in the neighborhood, so you will have to walk down and back up. We hiked to Laurel Falls - that was another workout! Be prepared to drive a little ways to the grocery store. We brought most of our groceries but needed a few things and the next town is 25-30 minutes away. (Of course, there is always Dollar General that is closer!) Not many places to eat out. The first night we went to the Trading Post and the food was good and the people were so friendly, we stopped back in on our way out to say goodbye!

This is at least my 20th Airbnb and by far the nicest! Everything was so well thought out, so well appointed, just perfect. From blankets out at gas fire pit, to pillows and blanket greeting you on front porch swing, to high, high end bedroom luxuries, individual toiletry packets for each day, mini waters and Sunny Ds in fridge, a snack chip bag basket, granola bars and oatmeal packets, heck Brenda even has pancake mix in a jar with syrup! Your outdoor space is awesome, private hot tub patio with comfy seating and lights, another grilling and dining area, and the aforementioned GAS fire pit area with Adirondack seating, cornhole and horseshoes! This IS a tiny house (or two if you rent both) but it's huge on space, flow and comfort. We cannot wait to book both units and have our girls and their husbands join us for hiking, playing, grilling and games. while we plot how to manifest this business plan in our own futures. Absolutely stellar.

We had an amazing stay and it felt like home away from home. The house was clean and exactly as described. The host was responsive and very helpful. The house was clean and stocked with everything needed for out stay. We were able to enjoy the beautiful back deck and couch on the back porch. A comfortable, relaxing and enjoyable stay. We will hopefully be back to enjoy again in the near future.

Had two of are six people come stay for one night, and loved it and may plan on booking a trip next year.
