Holler Hall is a peaceful, family-friendly mountain home set beside a private creek just minutes from Sparta. Guests return for the privacy, the sound of water from the porch, and the layout that works beautifully for families.

Why Families Love It

• Large yard + private creek (about 150 ft from the house)
• Covered porch overlooking the water
• Basement rec space with sectional, games & shuffleboard
• Bunk room for kids (sleeps 4)
• Fully stocked kitchen & dining for 8
• Fire pit + outdoor seating

Parents relax upstairs while kids enjoy their own space downstairs — or everyone gathers for movie nights and puzzles.

Wildlife sightings are common in spring and summer: deer, hummingbirds, fireflies, and even the occasional heron along the creek.

Location

Quiet and private, yet minutes from:
• Downtown Sparta
• The New River (tubing & fishing)
• Blue Ridge Parkway
• Stone Mountain & Grayson Highlands

If you're looking for a private mountain property where kids can explore and adults can truly unwind, Holler Hall delivers.
Upstairs: Where Mornings Begin Slowly

The upstairs level is the heart of the home — bright, open, and perfect for shared meals and slow mornings.
Upstairs includes:

King bedroom with plush bedding and woodland views

Queen bedroom ideal for couples or additional guests

Full bathroom with walk-in shower (no tub)

Fully stocked kitchen with everything you need for cooking family meals

Dining table for 8 — great for games, puzzles, and long conversations

Living space with curated décor and warm, inviting colors

Large covered porch overlooking the creek, the most-loved spot in the entire home

Many guests say they spend most of their time here — sipping coffee in the morning, watching birds flit through the trees, reading in the afternoon light, or ending the evening with a glass of wine under the stars.

The porch alone is a vacation.
Downstairs: Family Lounge & Kid Paradise

The downstairs level is designed for relaxing and having fun — especially for families with children.
Downstairs includes:

TV lounge with a roomy sectional sofa (also doubles as extra kid sleeping space)

Game & puzzle table

Shuffleboard court painted on the floor — a guest favorite

Kids’ bunk room with two sets of twin bunk beds (sleeps 4 comfortably)

Laundry room for longer stays or muddy mountain adventures

A covered patio just steps from the yard and creek

This level gives everyone room to spread out. Parents can relax upstairs while kids enjoy their own space — or everyone can gather together for movies, puzzles, and games.

Guests consistently comment on how well the layout works for families, giving kids plenty to do while adults unwind.
Outdoors: Your Own Private Mountain Retreat

The outdoor spaces at Holler Hall are what make it truly special. The home sits on a large, quiet property surrounded by trees, water, and wildlife. You don’t share the creek with anyone — it is yours to explore during your stay.

Outdoor features include:

The Creek:

Just a short, easy walk from the house. (about 150 feet)
Kids love it. Adults love it. Dogs love it.

Wade in, skip stones, read by the water, or simply sit and listen. Many guests say the creek is closer to the house than it looks in photos — “even better than expected.”
Picnic Shelter

A covered table right by the creek, perfect for:

Coffee in the morning

Lunch by the water

Painting, writing, reading

Watching the kids splash and play

Romantic creekside dinners

Tree Swings for Kids

Multiple swings hang from strong trees throughout the property, giving children endless entertainment while adults relax nearby.
Private Nature Trail

One of Holler Hall’s most unique features is your own private trail that winds from the yard all the way up the mountain behind the house.

At the top, you’ll find:

A picnic table

A glider bench

Quiet, peaceful space to rest and reflect

Hummingbirds and goldfinches around the porch

A great blue heron visiting the creek

Turkeys passing through

Fireflies in summer

Leaves changing in fall

Some even meet the friendly neighborhood dog, Sam, who occasionally stops by to say hello.

Nature is alive here, and it’s a huge part of the experience.

Downtown Sparta (restaurants, shops, festivals)

The New River — tubing, fishing, kayaking

The Blue Ridge Parkway

Stone Mountain State Park

Grayson Highlands State Park (wild ponies!)
