Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Forest

Extremely clean, comfortable, and convenient!

Our family gathered there in the Forest/Lynchburg area for Thanksgiving this year. We found this property to be entirely suitable for our use in this way. The house is laid out well and we were able to enjoy our time together. Scott was very accommodating on anything that we needed and responsive when we had any questions. We certainly enjoyed our stay and would absolutely consider staying in this property again if we needed to gather in that area. Highly recommend this property to others whose group sizes are compatible with the house. Thanks so much for making us feel at home and for accommodating us while we were here.

We were very happy with Danielle’s hospitality and the space worked so well for our family with a pet. I would highly recommend this place.

Second time staying. Love the location to University of Lynchburg. Chris is super easy to work with.

Oh my gosh, been stateside and abroad using Airbnb and this has to be my FAVORITE place so far; pristinely clean, gorgeous area and incredible host. The beds were so comfortable and the yard was so large my toddler could play his heart out and it's quiet enough I wasn't worried about us being outside dealing with traffic. 20/10 recommend. Can't wait to stay here again!

Jennifer’s place is such a gem. If you like being on the lake and having all the toys and amenities already taken care of for you then this is your place. I have my own kayaks but it was nice to not to have to worry about bringing them. Kayaks for adults and kids, paddle boat, paddle board, beautiful deck, multiple ladders to get out after swimming. They have board games and a karaoke machine that was so fun. The porch was so nice and relaxing. Better than the pictures. You should stay here.

Great little place with comfortable beds. Just as depicted and described. A wonderful value for our quick trip to Lynchburg.

Maddie's place was great. kitchen was good to make dinners and breakfast with. Thanks for the wonderful place to stay

My friend and I had an incredible stay at Michelle's place! The cabin was exactly as described and had a lot of privacy. The surroundings were beautiful - the best part was the riding stables only a four minute drive away. Definitely go for a ride and stop by the petting zoo:) Look forward to staying in the future!

Perfect for dog lovers and lake lovers! I’ve rented various condos at Smith Mountain Lake and several different ones at Stripers Landing, but Shannon’s place is now my new favorite. With a great view, plenty of space and the option to bring the pup - it’s such a treat. Highly recommend.

Angelica is an excellent host, very clear with communications and quick to respond to questions. The space was perfect, well equipped, clean and comfortable. There’s a lot of love scattered throughout the space with snacks, drinks, pet treats and other little essentials. We will stay here again….

I loved staying at Mariners Landing in this lovely condo. It was perfect for a peaceful couple of nights away in the "off season" though any season at Smith Mountain Lake is beautiful! I enjoyed the amenities including the indoor pool, game room, and beach area, and had a fabulous meal from Bruno's Clubhouse. The condo was beautifully decorated and I spent a lot of time on the lakefront balcony. Definitely recommend a stay here!

Had a wonderful time with the family, Tammy was a great host! Very responsive and communicative. Definitely a better fit for older kids (the hills 🤣), but Tammy had ALL the essentials for babies to be accommodated and right at home! And the littles loved fishing too. It was an excellent spring break for us!

This hidden gem outside of Lexington was wonderful. The surrounding area is quiet and scenic. You're deceptively close to downtown and surrounding destinations for hiking, scenic drives and solid restaurants. More importantly, the accomodations were easy to access, spotless inside and very comfortable. The hosts were friendly, responsive and accomodating to all our requests. Easily one of the best AirBnB experiences I've had. I highly recommend, and I'd stay here again.

Literally the best sleep I’ve had at a place not my home, and I travel a lot! Already booked another stay. Home was immaculate and the view was breathtaking. Thank you again!!

Karen was very pleasant & quick to respond. We rented her home for our son’s wedding. She gave great recommendations & took care of a problem right upon arrival. The home was beautiful, we had plenty of space for our family & loved being able to bring our dog. The master bath floor & tub wasn’t the cleanest, I don’t blame that at all on the host, I’m sure it can be hard with cleaners managing a property. And the steps going upstairs weren’t swept. I didn’t want to bother her again, as she had already taken care of a problem for us earlier, so we just went with it, it wasn’t unbearable. Beds were comfy. Towels were nice, washcloths may need a little updating, but overall, it was what we needed & served its purpose.

Fran was an exceptional host, and the yurt was such a fun way to ring in the New Year. I won't mince words: it was chilly, but the buddy heater was a welcome amenity, and the bed was beyond comfy and piled high with blankets. The bathhouse 250 steps away was terrific, but by far and away my favorite perk was the en suite--the composting toilet around the corner on the deck, something I didn't know about until I arrived! Fran thinks of everything, and, given I was starving on arrival, the freshly baked bread was such a welcome treat. If you're a beer drinker, don't miss Blue Mountain Barrel House & Smokin' Barrel Restaurant. Thank you, Fran!

Outstanding from beginning to end, great hosts that were exceptionally responsive when questions arose. We’ll be back!!

We absolutely loved staying at Martha's home. It was spacious, clean and surrounded by beauty. Just a short drive into town where you can get great food, coffee and shopping, as well as a short drive to many hikes. We brought our dog, who has a lot of energy and hiked him every day we were there. Martha had a little welcome basket for us when we arrived and was always reachable by phone. The beds and sheets were so comfortable that our friends actually looked up the brand of sheets and bought their own set! If we are ever in need of staying in the Lexington area again, we would stay at Martha's home in a heartbeat.

Place was clean and the hosts were friendly and attentive. Great location. We would definitely stay here again.

I loved everything about this home. Parking was available, quiet home , very clean , decorated nicely , honestly it felt like home away from home . Very cozy ! Thank you so much for letting me stay in your home !

The cottage was exactly as described. Out in the country with only cows, deer and rabbits in sight. Sunrise and sunset with the mountains in full view has my wife and I wanting to move to a location like this. All the privacy you could ask for and still within minutes of a Dollar General, gas stations, restaurants, breweries and wineries. Only 45 minutes south of Wintergreen Resort Spa (which we recommend for massages). We wanted a quiet and relaxing weekend, and that is exactly what we got. Highly recommend staying at Martha’s Cottage!

This was an amazing stay/experience. We went for our anniversary and had such a peaceful and relaxing time away from the normal routine and stresses of life. The view was absolutely amazing, whether taking it in from the hot tub or sitting out in the yard. The hot tub and home theater were nice to be able to unwind with and extremely easy to operate. Mary Catherine was a great host and always responsive and helpful. She also had so many thoughtful and wonderful things throughout the home, from a M&M dispenser and popcorn in the theater room to bottled waters/snacks and a basket of toiletries in case anything was forgotten. We can not recommend this house enough and are grateful for a wonderful and relaxing stay.

Great stay. Beautiful view and short drive to town. Great alternative to expensive hotels in town.
