What Families Are Saying
We’re honored to have hosted dozens of unforgettable family reunions over the years. Here’s a recent review that speaks to what makes Love Ridge so special:
“This was the perfect family getaway!! We’ve been doing this annually for about 15 years… now up to about 35. We wanted a location where we can all be close together, yet have the privacy of our own cottages.
Our 3-night stay was wonderful–hiking, firepits, game shed, Lake Sherando, annual rubber ducky race… so many options to satisfy all. Having the lodge with the large kitchen facilities was fantastic–we had meals together, hosted a baby shower, craft time… just a great place to gather.
This was absolutely our best annual get together and we’ve booked for next year. Thank you, Love Ridge!!”
