Photos and Description of the Warm Springs vacation house rental
The Tannery -A Beautiful 2 Story House- 2BR 1½BA With Sleeping Porch

The Tannery was built ca. 1820 on Old Germantown Road, an historic central byway, which in its heyday was an important part of revolutionary Virginia and used for the exploration of the then western frontier. Constructed with handmade brick and heart pine beams, The Tannery was initially a blacksmith shop, a tannery and a relay station for riders to obtain fresh horses.

In 1997, The Tannery was updated, remodeled and furnished with antiques. Large double back porches overlook two streams, a lovely treed half acre and the Alleghany Mountains. The Warm Springs Stream flows through the rear of the property, with warm mineral water around 90 degrees. There is a small pool and waterfall for a unique soaking experience day or night. To the front and side of the house, a cold artisan spring supplies The Tannery with the purest water and then trickles through watercress to meet the Warm Springs Stream.

Within walking distance, Warm Springs village is a charming step back into time. The village is 5 miles north of the historic Homestead Hotel. Wonderful restaurants are abundant including Saturday night dinners at the music conservatory of Garth Newell. The area is also surrounded by State and National Park land with plenty of out door activities. Or just relax on the main porch of The Tannery: read, bird watch, or nap in the hammock. The Tannery is the perfect place for a romantic getaway or an activity filled weekend. Come enjoy the beautiful mountains of Virginia.

Amenities: Fireplace, Local Phone, VCR & Tapes, Stereo, Full Kitchen, Microwave, Refrigerator, Cooking utensils provided, One AC Window Unit, Fans, Linens provided, Laundry facilities, Maid service.

Since The Tannery is surrounded by geothermal springs, one must take a dip in the Jefferson Pools. There is plenty of wonderful hiking along the Warm Springs mountain ridge as well as in Hidden Valley along the Jackson River. After a full day of outdoor activities, stroll down to the Simon Kenton Pub and Waterwheel Restaurant or to the Warm Springs Inn restaurant. If driving, the choices are many. And don't forget Garth Newel for those musically inclined. There are many concerts and festivals during the summer/fall.

Perfect Weekend Getaway

5 of 5
Submitted: April 20, 2009 Stayed: April 2009
My spouse and our two college-aged daughters stayed here on Easter 2009 weekend, and despite the dismal weather, we had a delightful weekend. The cottage is cozy, tastefully decorated, peaceful, and very convenient (easy walking distance) to nearby amenities, including a great restaurant, an excellent spa and a friendly and well equipped miniature tavern. The setting and grounds are gorgeous, the rear veranda a delight. The Tannery is a perfect location for a couple's romantic getaway, or quiet weekend with friends --- we will definitely be visiting the Tannery again.

Highly Recommended !

Owner's Response: Dear Dana and Janice,
Thank you for the glowing review. We love The Tannery and are so pleased when our guests treasure it as much as we do. You all are always welcome back and if there is anything we can do to make your stays a more wonderful experience, just let us know. Mimi & Jack

Thanksgiving holiday at The Tannery

5 of 5
Submitted: November 27, 2012 Stayed: November 2012
Our family of five spent Thanksgiving week at The Tannery. It was the perfect cozy get-away! We spent lots of time around the wonderful wood stove, reading, playing board games and watching a few movies. I even cooked a 10 pound turkey along with a full Thanksgiving meal in the tiny kitchen.

We loved the comfort, warmth and charm of The Tannery along with the warm mineral spring right in the backyard. We also enjoyed walks with our dog around beautiful Warm Springs. My two teenage sons even slept one night out on the sleeping porch with lows in the 30's! Thank you for the down comforters provided!

Thanks for a great cottage!

We went to the Tannery to celebrate my brother's birthday. The property was very nice, and pet friendly which was a must for us. We went hiking and fly fishing on the Jackson River, and spent a morning at Jefferson Pools. A very relaxing getaway! Perfect for two couples. I would definitely recommend staying here, we hope to return in the spring!

Our Stay at the Tannery

5 of 5
Submitted: July 26, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
All I keep thinking after I have gotten back home and to work is ... it was so... nice. My husband and I spent a week at the Tannery with the grand-kids.

We did day trips every day to the surrounding areas. We went paddle boating on Lake Moomaw. Then we went swimming on Lake Moomaw, the water is so beautiful there. We played in Back Creek by the Blowing Springs Campground and checked out the Blowing Springs. We took the kids to Cass WV to ride the railroad up the mountain. We also visited the National Radio Astronomy in Green Bank WV ( we told the grand-kids that they were listening for ET). They loved the place. We hiked in Hidden Valley by the Jackson River. We visited the Bath County Historical Society and the local thrift shop.

We ate in and we ate out and enjoyed the dipping pool out back with the minnows. I enjoyed the fireflies at night after it got dark. We spend three great nights on the sleeping porch my husband and I in the beds and the grand-kids in their sleeping bags.

We all enjoyed Mimi's painting and artwork around the house. Even the grand-kids enjoyed looking at her paintings. We were very pleased to meet her and Jack during out stay.

We had a great time, the place has a wonderful view. I have already been telling my co-workers about the place. It is really wonderful and if you go there do not wait too long to jump into the dipping pool because once you do you will want to do it again.

Alice and Dennis and the grand-kids
Owner's Response: Dear Alice, Dennis and grand-kids,
You all are so sweet. Thank you for staying at our house and visiting all our favorite places in and around Bath county. And thank you too for the compliments on my paintings. The Tannery is a treasure and we are lucky to have such great guests love it as much as we do. We enjoyed meeting you all. Please come again soon. Jack and Mimi

Absolutely Amazing!

5 of 5
Submitted: June 27, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
Enjoyed a wonderful week "off the grid" at the Tannery. The home is beautiful and wonderfully cozy. The sleeping porch is perfect for those afternoon naps. The location is absolutely perfect as well. It is a quiet little town with all the amenities of home. You can find everything you need between the Dollar General and the IGA - no need to bring tons of food (lesson learned for next visit). Also close enough to attractions such as Natural Bridge and Lake Moomaw for fun day visits. The absolute best part of the Tannery is the dipping pool. Many many many hours were spent enjoying the time in the spring. We also enjoyed watching wildlife (rabbits, deer, chipmunks, squirrels and even the minnows in the spring) and just relaxing. We will certainly return to the Tannery and have already recommended it to family and friends.
