Private MAIN LEVEL of this Sunny House Near the Blue Ridge Parkway, Bedford, VA

YOU have the beautiful, sunny main level, deck, porch, grassy yard, and two fully private entrances!

We (the owners) live in the separate, terrace-level unit, with private patio entrance and no shared spaces.

Super quiet & squeaky clean!
Sleeps 4, for couples OR meet friends halfway.
A short drive to LU, Smith Mtn Lake, DDay Memorial, and Blue Ridge Parkway.
Deck & porch for reading, nature, stargazing.
Full kitchen! Eat-in or potluck!
PackNPlay and High chair.
Work, relax, explore, reconnect.

Welcome to Birdsong Corner!

Step inside the sun-filled main level of this lovely house. In the summer both your front door and carport entrances are surrounded by vibrant flowers. Settle in and make yourselves at home!

Your entrances, porches (including the propane fire pit), and all living spaces are fully separate from our quiet, terrace-level apartment residence.

Our neighborhood is so serene and peaceful. You'll enjoy a relaxing day on the porch, and a sound night's sleep. Use the light-blocking cellular shades and Dohm sleep machine or small fan to sleep-in, or open the windows to let in the mountain air, bird-song, and sunlight.

Three bedrooms (first offers one queen bed, second offers two twin beds, third has a single twin bed.) Each bedroom has space for the *Pack and Play* available upon request).

Please note that we launder all sheets, blankets, AND bedspreads between stays. Your comfort and well-being is our top priority, so you will rest in 100% fresh, clean bedding.

We provide extra bed and bath linens ... light and luxurious, all fresh white, with dark cloths for makeup removal and cleanup after hiking, biking, or kayaking.

The kitchen is fully-equipped including glass-top stove/oven, microwave, coffee, and full-size refrigerator. The main living area is open-concept, flooded with lovely sunlight, and features a 65-inch flat screen television.

We are both artists, so you'll be immersed in our original artwork. Your own private gallery-stay! You'll find local art venues in our welcome folder.

When you're ready to get outside, follow the sidewalk for a 25-minute walk, or a 3-minute drive to downtown Bedford, Virginia, where you'll find all the conveniences of the world's best little town. Among them ... antique shopping, sweet coffee shops, city parks, a watch and clock museum, a knitting shop, a holistic foods and remedies shop, and a genealogical research library!

We're a 10 minute drive from the National D-Day Memorial (open daily 10-5), 15 quick minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway, and about 30 minutes from Smith Mountain Lake. Claytor Nature Center and the Sharp Top trail head are both just 10-15 minutes away! (And just 20 minutes to the beautiful Falling Water Cascades hike).

After your adventures, grab a 28-inch Benny's pizza to enjoy by the cozy new propane fire pit, or cook a four-course meal in our fully-equipped kitchen. Read a book or watch for deer in the cool of the carport, or spend the evening star-gazing from the deck (or better yet, grab some blankets and take in the night sky from our safe and spacious yard, portable telescope provided!)

Our neighborhood is beautiful for walking and biking, so feel free to wander the streets, and even walk to town for breakfast (Thursday through Sunday) or lunch (Tuesday through Sunday) ... we'll share directions and recommendations for good things to eat!

For a little exercise, take a ten-minute walk to get to "The Loop", and enjoy a 3 mile walk around Bedford, see some of its most historic locations ... feel free to ask the friendly locals who are also walking the loop for their recommendations, as well.

Whether you're in town to work, visit, celebrate, recover, relax, or explore, our lovely ranch home is a wonderful spot to land for a few days, unpack, and take a load off.

Guest Review: "The house is absolutely adorable! We felt comfortable and at home immediately! The beds were comfortable, the kitchen well stocked, and the yard was perfect! We loved all the personal touches and lots of information about the local things to do. We will definitely stay here again if we’re ever in the area!"

We enjoyed our night at the home so very much. It is nestled in a peaceful neighborhood where we could walk and relax on the deck. What a fantastic retreat - beautifully appointed and comfortable. Jane is thoughtful and welcoming. We will return :)

Cozy and charming house
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at this cozy, beautifully decorated home situated in a quiet neighborhood - only 30 mins from LU. Every room has carefully selected details waiting to be discovered. We’ll stay here again. Wish we had more time to enjoy our visit of this historic town of Bedford.

Clean Quiet and Spacious
The house was spotless and tastefully furnished. Communication with the host was clear, and check in was easy. The property is in a beautiful neighborhood, my girls enjoyed the deer running through the yard in the evening. The outdoor seating areas, covered patio and open deck, are beautiful and relaxing. The neighborhood is quiet, we slept peacefully. Even though the owners were on site in a separate level apartment , we never heard them once, definitely felt like we had the house and property to ourselves.

Short stay for family party
House is convenient to extended family. We were in town for a party. We didn’t spend a ton of time there but the house was spotless and beds were very comfortable. Jane left a lovely welcome note and there were clear instructions throughout the house. We will keep it in mind for the next time we are in Bedford.

Highly recommended!
This property is very comfortable and made us feel right at home. The Host communicates very well and responds to messages promptly. The beds were comfy and the living room furniture was perfect to sit and relax. There is a good ammount of puzzles and games avalible, as well as a large smart TV. The covered porch caught the best breezes and was quite a delight to sit on the deck in the mornings and liten to the birds. We saw deer, bunnies, and sooooo many birds. Will definitely seek out this hime again if we revisit the area.

Bedford Bliss!
Overall this stay was one of our top 3 with VRBO in the last 10 years! As soon as we walked in the door, we immediately felt at home. Jane’s place was clean, spacious, and bright! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to prepare a full Easter dinner for our family, and there are many things you don’t normally find as well (snacks, drinks, coffees…etc). Jane was VERY accommodating and helpful to my wife and I throughout the process of booking, our perfect family getaway! The house was plenty big enough and having 2 bathrooms was huge for a family with 3 girls. J The beds were great and everything smelled so fresh! There were even chocolates on each bed and the dining room table! There are plenty of personal touches around the house, but we especially loved the original artwork in every room! The neighborhood was quiet and off the beaten path, but only min’s away from highways to take you wherever you want to go! Example, it’s just about 30 min’s to Liberty U., where our son is a Jr., and as long as Jane has availability, we’ll definitely be back!

Relaxing getaway
My wife and I stayed here during Valentine's week while visiting our daughter at Liberty University. We enjoyed sitting on the back porch around the gas fire pit. The home was spotless exceeding our cleanliness expectations and decorated with original art created by the owner. We hiked one of their recommended trails and the view at the top was spectacular. The owner was very engaging and took great care of us. We recommend this home if you are looking to stay in the area as Bedford is an adorable community close to the mountains, Lynchburg, Roanoke and the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Sisters’ Weekend
This property was completely lovely, even better than advertised, and exactly what my sister and I were looking for as a home base for our annual sisters’ trip. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were super-comfy and everything was immaculately clean and tidy. Lots of colorful art on the walls and a top-notch bookshelf. Jane was so helpful and kind, and put together a list of recommendations for our trip. I recommend Birdsong Corner in the highest terms and would love to visit again!

Wonderful Place, Wonderful Location, Wonderful Communication w/Jane
We had a wonderful :) stay at Jane's place. The house was exactly like the pictures. We loved the location. It was very close to downtown, which was so cute. Jane had recommendations in a notebook in the house of places to visit and/or try. One of her lunch recommendations was Town Kitchen. It was so cute and the food was delicious. We will definitely recommend Jane's place in the future.

Lovely place to stay!
We enjoyed such gracious and beautiful hospitality while staying at this property! The owner is attentive to every detail to give guests a restful and enjoyable stay--from the tasteful and artful decorations and quality bedding and linens, to the multiple coffee and tea selections with cookies and mugs already set out for us and even a picnic basket outfitted for our use! We stayed during Liberty University's Family Weekend. We didn't book our trip as early as we would have liked and found many Lynchburg-area hotels sold out, but we're glad that lack of accommodations in Lynchburg pushed our search further out and that we found this property--an easy 25-30 minute drive to LU. In Bedford, we were also close to Sharp Top Mountain and enjoyed hiking to the summit.
