PROPERTY DESCRIPTIONS:

At the Cottage on Claytor, we take the simple approach to heart.  Simply offer a clean, comfortable place to eat and sleep, a spacious covered deck to relax and to enjoy the view, and a waterfront and dock ready for action!  Relax and enjoy these simple pleasures of lake living - nothing complicated here.

The Cottage on Claytor received a complete remodel/makeover in 2021, and we can’t wait to show off the results!   We want you to experience the fun of lake living!  Don’t just imagine yourself relaxing on the spacious covered deck watching the sun set over the water, make it happen! 

​

Accommodations:

The Cottage on Claytor offers a master suite with private bath.  Simply close the hall door to create a private retreat of your own.  Enjoy the lake view while relaxing in the queen size bed.  A sparkling clean bath complete with a one piece shower/tub combo and roomy granite topped vanity await you.  A large hallway closet gives you plenty of room to unpack and feel at home.  This space also features its own private exit so you can come and go and not disturb other members of your group.

 More than two of you?  Simply spread out the rest of your group in two more comfy bedrooms.

The second bedroom can’t be beat for convenience.  With a queen size bed, wardrobe, and roomy closet, it won’t take but a minute to relax and feel at home.  You can also enjoy lake views from the window if you simply want to kick back on the bed to recoup from your journey.  This bedroom is only a few steps away from the kitchen and deck.

Did the kids come along?  No problem!  Simply guide them to the third bedroom with two twin beds.  This room is a little further from the action in the kitchen and den, so if they need to go to bed earlier than you, simply close the door and let them rest while you enjoy a beautiful lake sunset on the deck.

Are there still two more in your group?  Simply unfold the queen size sleep sofa and problem solved!  That’s a total of eight guests that can sleep comfortably.

What other ways can we make things simple?

Internet – Simply use any of the ethernet jacks conveniently located in every room to plug in your favorite device.  Free WiFi makes staying in touch with the world a breeze.

Entertainment – Is it raining?  Simply pull out a favorite board game, book, or deck of cards to wait out the storm.  Or you could just curl up on the sofa or loveseat and watch TV.

Second Bathroom – We’ve added another bathroom complete with a one piece shower/tub combo, granite topped vanity and roomy closet.  It’s conveniently located within a few steps from both guest bedrooms.

​

Kitchen

The kitchen is a joy with full size appliances including dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker (regular and K-Cup compatible), toaster, blender, and electric mixer.  This fully equipped kitchen provides cookware, flatware, place settings, and glassware.  Check out the pantry for stock pots, muffin pans, casserole dishes, etc.

Grilling – Simply take the steps down to the lower patio and enjoy some burgers on the gas grill.  This grill has a dedicated gas line so no worries about the tank running out of gas during your stay!  Find out for yourself why everything tastes better at the lake!

Laundry - New full size washer and dryer conveniently located on the main level.

Fireplace – Are you staying during the fall?  Simply knock the chill out of the air with the gas fireplace.  No messy wood or ashes – just a warm glow to light up your night. (Coming soon!)

​

Where’s the Fun?

Waterfront - You are just strides away from the water.  You can relax and enjoy the view on the fully covered deck, or stroll down to the dock to drop a line, bird watch or read a book.  You decide what makes you happy.  You might even see an eagle or osprey catch a fish!

Adventure – Did you bring your boat?  Simply tie it up alongside the dock.  Don’t have a boat?  Rent one!  You can also rent kayaks, paddle boards and other items from nearby businesses.  Want a discount?  Enter our Lakewood Getaways property discount code which will be in your welcome email.

​

Firepit – Nothing completes the day like a simple fireside gathering.  Bring some s’mores fixings and create some wonderful memories!

​

Where exactly is the Cottage on Claytor?

We are located in the approximate center of the lake, on the deep water side of the Lowman's Ferry Bridge. 

We are convenient to Virginia Tech (45 minutes) and Radford University (20 minutes).  Simply can’t be beat for graduation celebrations and football games!

​

What about the Atmosphere?

The Cottage on Claytor is located in a residential community.  Loud groups and house parties are not allowed.  Owners and managers live nearby and will monitor activity if necessary.  Outdoor quiet time is from 10:00PM to 9:00AM.  Docks are for use by registered guests of Cottage on Claytor only.

 

What about Pets?

It’s simple – we don’t allow pets.  We love animals, but some folks are allergic.  We want everyone to be able to enjoy the cottage.
