Cozy and Quaint - Creekside w/ Firepit
About
This cozy little cabin was made for slow mornings and fireside evenings. Unwind as the creek flows by and enjoy the sounds of nature from the covered porch. As the leaves change, the mountains take on a little extra magic. About 15 min from I-77 and minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway, this is the perfect spot for an evening of rest or as a home base for exploring overlooks, hiking trails, wineries, small mountain towns, and everything that makes this corner of Virginia so special.

Other Details to Note
- There is another cabin on the property just beyond this cabin about ~40 feet away. This is a separate space but you may see other vehicles coming or going past the cabin in the shared driveway. The spaces are separated and private from one another with a large pine tree and a carport between them. Refer to photos for the layout of the property. - Pet Friendly - we welcome your furry family! Please be sure to add your pet to the guest count when booking so the applicable pet fee is included in your reservation. - We provide basic cleaning supplies as well as a starter kit of paper towels and toilet paper. Hotel quality bed linens and towels are provided, along with the amenitites you'd expect such as hand soap, body wash, shampoo, and conditioner. For longer stays, you may want to bring a few extra towels and toiletries. We stock a starter kit of k-cups of coffee, creamer and sugar along with basic cooking oils and spices. - The cabin has a small water heater that's rated to last for 1-2 standard showers. Some people may never notice but if you take a very long hot shower, you may run out of hot water and need to wait for it to heat back up (~1 hr) so you may want to plan accordingly to space out showers if you have multiple people showering and conserve hot water (ex: wait to wash dishes until after showering). - Our wooded setting comes with wildlife, including most commonly stink bugs or Asian lady beetles, especially as the seasons change. While we do our best to keep them out, a few may find their way inside. It’s simply part of being tucked away in the mountains! - The creek is usually shallow unless we have a lot of rain and is best enjoyed from the decks or in the meadow/at the fire pit. Enter at your own risk and use caution as the banks can be steep. - The cabin has no central air conditioning or heating. The cabin is warmed with a propane heater for chilly mornings and has an electric heater in the bedroom as well. The space is only about ~400 sq feet so will warm up quickly but may be chilly or warm upon arrival depending on the weather. - The driveway is gravel and runs along the hillside to get to the cabin. If you're used to rural roads you may think nothing of it, but if it's your first time on the driveway, you may want to arrive in daylight to acclimate. It's not very long but it does slope at an incline to get down to the cabin from the main road. There is only parking for one vehicle and the parking space is just slightly larger than your average parking lot spot. Low profile vehicles are not recommended as the driveway can get bumpy at times.
