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!

Spent 4 days here with my fiancé and two friends , and we absolutely loved it, it was so relaxing and refreshing , the property is gorgeous Only negatives i have to say , if youre bad at following directions (which i was given) you end up on a very hard to pass road and will likely get stuck if you dont know what youre doing .. if you follow the owner directions properly you get a very easily passable road (like i said , my fault not theres but just for anyone in the future that makes the same mistake lol) also theres no ceilings on the bedrooms .. and definitely could use a second fan but all in all , it was an amazing experience <3(:

Evidently rustic means trashy, trash all around the property trees, falling all over the place, just waiting for the next one to fall through the cabin not as advertised took forever to get into the cabin because things were taken care of properly

Our stay at the cabin was everything we hoped for. No cell service? Check. No WiFi? Check. Beautiful scenery? Check. Secluded? Check. The cabin is in wonderful, rustic condition. The deck and stairs looked fairly new and felt very stable. It was stocked with everything we needed, including cookware, towels, bedding, movies, and games. Using the fireplace was awesome and incredibly easy to clean up with the tools found onsite. Communication with the owners was seamless and prompt. Their instructions on how to locate the cabin were spot on. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.

We had a great stay. It was nice to unplug for the weekend. The directions given by the host were extremely accurate and we had zero issues finding the place.

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.

Wonderful stay and awesome way to escape off the grid. Peaceful location and great fishing in the pond (steps from the cabin).

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.

My five year old and I stayed here over the weekend as a trip before he starts kindergarten. We had a wonderful time fishing, making s’mores and memories. Thanks for sharing your place with us. It’s the perfect get away from anybody.

We had a wonderful time relaxing. The cabin was perfect for us. We hiked the trails and enjoyed the Yoder's market for lunch. Friendly people all around. Definetly coming back.

Cabin was great, was a little concerned about the road in but it wasn’t a problem. Location to park and hikes good, luray caverns, James Madison home also worth seeing. 5 deer out the back window on Saturday. Thanks for the new deck and steps. 😊. Only suggestion would be we had salt and no pepper and no charcoal for the grill. Beds are old and we ended up using two but all in all a fun cabin.

The property is remote but check-in directions provided by the hosts were clear and easy to follow. The cabin was clean and had plenty of linens and towels, along with a reasonably well-stocked kitchenette. Overall, a lovely stay - note there is internet or cellphone service!

My wife and I wanted to do something different for a getaway. It was cold and misty but really cozy. The fireplace was great. We did some trails with the dog each day and ate out at night. Two days was enough but spring or summer we probably could stay a week.

It was wonderful to disconnect and spend time in this cabin! GREAT please to go to unwind in the mountains without the stress of camping. The hosts sent us directions prior which helped as we got into the area. 5 days was not enough to do all the things! Especially with fourth of July in the mix. Thinking of returning in the fall ... but we were able to eat at some local restraunts, tour Luray caverns, drive on Skyline drive, and spend as much time as possible outside! The VRBO info / page was a little confusing with contradicting amenities but Jane quickly answered my messages to answer any questions!
