Elmo's Rest is a farm vacation rental operated by Nancy and Danny Johnson on a fifth generation family farm in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. There are 250 acres of orchards, pasture, woods and ponds located in Bedford County, between Roanoke and Lynchburg.
The farm is home to cattle, horses, burros, dogs, cats, pigs, goats, sheep, chickens, rabbits, turkeys and other assorted types. The house is a roomy 1900's farm house furnished for comfort, convenience and a sense of history.
Everything is furnished but the food and you! Elmo's Rest comes totally furnished to accommodate groups, families and couples. The kitchen is equipped with the basics or you can dine out - (either gourmet or fast food) only 5-25 miles away. There is a dining room, den, three large bedrooms with two double beds each, a bunk room with four single beds, a nursery or child's room, and plenty of porch area for sitting. Overall, it's simple, plain and truly a family farm environment with complete privacy.
From the first blossom in spring, to the creek-wading of summer, to the last crisp apple of fall, to the frost and ice of winter, there is time for you to relax or be active. There are ponds for fishing, trails to walk or hike, and animals to observe or pet. There are opportunities for many recreational and cultural activities close to the farm that will make your vacation or reunion truly memorable.
