About this property

Secluded Mountain Cabin, Lakefront, Hiking, Fishing, Relaxing

  • This cozy, rustic, mountain retreat is situated on four secluded acres in the Blue Ridge Mountains. The cabin has a shaded deck that overlooks a serene pond full of Bream and Bass and it is only a short walk to Robinson River for great Trout fishing. A five minute drive will take you to the trail head of "White Oak Canyon Falls" or ten minutes to "Old Rag Mountain", two of Virginia's most acclaimed hiking trails, complete with water falls and rock scrambling. It is also only fifteen minutes from the entrance to the Blue Ridge Parkway for lovely drives or numerous other hiking trails. There are several Civil War battle sites within easy driving distance, for those history buffs in your family. The cabin is fully furnished with linens, dishes, microwave, and fireplace, etc. Dialup internet is available for those who just can't unplug. Check with your internet provider for access numbers. If something romantic, peaceful, or adventurous is what you are seeking...you have found it!

The cabin was cozy, private, and clean. We enjoyed spending time inside, offline, and fishing in the nearby pond. It's a great home base for enjoying Shenandoah and near excellent hiking routes. It was a great stay.

Had a great trip to this beautiful area. Cabin was very nice & in a very secluded area -be aware driveway very narrow. Pond with nice dock & inner tubes…. but if fishing is important to you we did not have much luck & had several visitors who showed up during our stay that took over the dock to make things not so private. I definitely recommend the cabin for convenience to Skyline Drive & Charlottesville.

The cabin was adorable, cozy, clean, and just what we were hoping for. No internet. No cable TV. Just the sounds of nature and the isolation we very much needed. I'd love to come back when it's colder and fire up the woodstove. The fishing was good early in the day. There were maps up of nearby hospitals, which I really appreciated, but also local street maps and guides. We went to an apple festival just up the street and it was delightful

Great Escape

We spent just 3 short days in this cabin. The location is beautiful and so lush in the spring. The opportunity for some casual fishing in the pond was fantastic. We appreciated the air conditioner, full kitchen, and collection of DVDs.Nothing super fancy but a lovely spot for a weekend escape to the mountains.

Pleasant Fall Stay

We wanted to see fall colors and enjoy some cooler temperatures, and we got all that and more. The cabin is nestled in the trees and right next to a small lake, very picturesque. Check in was opening a padlock on the mailbox. The cabin is a nice size for 2 and is nicely equipped for meal prep, relaxation and unplugged enjoyment.

Fabulous getaway

This was a perfect place to get away and completely power down. No internet, no cellphone, no TV. The property was cozy, clean, very well insulated and comfortable. We sent in the middle of winter. There was a really nice wood burning fireplace. The house overlooks a small pond. It was beautiful. It was less than a 2 hour drive from DC so very geographically desirable. Can't wait to go back.

Wonderful getaway cabin

Perfect cabin for relaxing, unplugging and hiking the nearby trails! The cabin has everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We loved that we could cook full meals in the kitchen and there were plenty of pots, pans and utensils. The wood indoor stove is top notch, we loved having cozy fires at night. There were some games, books and DVDs at the cabin which were great to have on hand to relax.The view of the surrounding area and stars at night are stunning. We enjoyed exploring the nearby towns and of course going to Shenandoah NP. This place is exactly what we were looking for- cozy, secluded, and romantic.The hosts were very responsive and kind, and provided great directions and instructions. We would love to come back again.
