Food scene

This restaurant was established in 2001 and used to be a train station. It eliminated passenger trains in 1971. Trains still sometimes pass by the restaurant as you enjoy a delicious meal. Our favorite meals are the raspberry chicken and the chicken panini. The N&W prime rib and crab cakes are highly recommended as well.

Affectionately referred to as TKP. You will find a nice variety of sandwiches and salads at this fun little spot in downtown Bedford. It's small so I wouldn't recommend it if you have a very large group. There is outdoor as well as indoor seating. The Banh Mi is an excellent sandwich to try. They are closed on Mondays so make sure to catch them on another day!

Boat Rental on Smith Mountain Lake

I recommend booking your boat as soon as you know your travel dates. There are several places to rent but they do get booked quickly in the summertime. Places also rent skis and tubes. Our favorite place to book is Westlake Boat Rentals. Their boats are always on the new side and very clean!
Kako da uštedite

Hiking and Picnicking

Hiking and picnicking are always free. Our area offers lots of great places for both! Grab your family/friends and your camera and go make some memories! You will find a picnic basket to use at our Airbnb!
