Stunning Views, close to Wineries, Primland & Parkway - beautifully appointed

Tsuga on the Ridge offers the classic mountain vacation escape… Beautiful, expansive views of the Blue Ridge Parkway and Rock Castle Gorge below are enjoyed from this well-appointed, secluded mountain top vacation home on seven acres. The home borders National Forest land providing plenty of privacy and and has a large 3 acre open mowed yard area, perfect for kids and dogs to run and play.

Tsuga on the Ridge is the only home directly adjoining the forested and protected Rocky Knob Recreation Area and on Rock Castle Gorge, rewarding guests with pristine, undeveloped views of Rock Castle Gorge, the Blue Ridge Parkway and Rocky Knob from the home, yard or deck overlooking the gorge. Tsuga on the Ridge is the perfect home base to explore the network of Rocky Knob Recreation Area hiking trails.

Tsuga on the Ridge was the summer home of Burke Davis – an award-winning southern journalist, novelist, and nonfiction writer. He was best known for his popular war histories and biographies. He and his lovely wife Juliet Burnett Davis “re-claimed” two 1800s vintage log cabins, using them as bedroom wings of the modern central home. The kitchen, living and dining areas, one guest bedroom and bathrooms are located in the new construction which joins the two cabins.

As you step inside your eyes are immediately drawn to the wall of sliding glass doors. Sweeping mountain views take your breath away. The stars at night are incredible. The wide plank heart pine flooring and vaulted ceiling create an inviting space for family and friends to enjoy watching TV with surround sound or playing board games late into the night. There is a well-equipped galley kitchen, and numerous cookbooks to read. The Master bedroom in the Master cabin overlooks the Blue Ridge Parkway. The room is furnished with family antiques and a king sized bed covered in lovely linens. The hand hewn logs of the cabin add to the ambiance. A guest bedroom with a queen size bed is located off the hallway which joins the guest cabin to the central living area. The guest cabin has a downstairs bedroom with twin beds. A hidden stair case leads to the fourth bedroom, perfect for kids and located on the second floor of the guest cabin. This bedroom is appointed with twin beds, antiques and art from a renowned regional artist.

The beauty of the Blue Ridge may be appreciated from anywhere on this mountain top escape. Guests may also enjoy picking blueberries, hiking to the top of the High Hill (at 3400 feet the highest point in Patrick County) or fishing at nearby Three Ponds. (All are owned by the Tsuga on the Ridge owners.) A lower deck provides a spectacular setting for an al fresco dinner overlooking Rock Castle Gorge.

Offsite activities include breakfast at Mabry Mill, hiking the numerous trails of the Blue Ridge Parkway, visiting Rocky Knob, dining at Chateau Morsette, sipping wine at Villa Appalaccia Winery, zip lining at Buffalo Mountain Ziplines, gazing at Lover’s Leap or indulging at Nancy’s Candy Factory. Golfers may enjoy playing at Olde Mill Resort, Primland Highland Course, or Great Oaks. Come relax, and unwind and enjoy all this wonderful historic Blue Ridge mountain property has to offer with comfort and confidence provided by Starlink internet and a new 20KW whole-house generator and new dedicated propane tank to provided power no matter the conditions!


The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a fireplace, a coffee maker, and a phone.

The pictures don’t do the view justice! Amazing view and the house was awesome. Plenty of room for eight. The kitchen had everything we needed and more for cooking and entertaining. The extra lawn chairs made enjoying the view easy. The huge back lawn was great for kids and dogs. Lovely property. Nice and quiet. Would stay again.

This was our 4th visit to Tsuga on the Ridge and as delightful as ever. This magical property with its spectacular views, gorgeous acreage, thoughtful amenities and comforts, cleanliness and well-stocked kitchen is a vacation all by itself. We love the hikes, restaurants and vineyards the host recommends but could be just as happy staying our entire booking at Tsuga. It has again been a great pleasure and an honor to celebrate spring in this special place.

The house is great! Very, very clean. It has everything that you need. The view from the back porch is truly unbelievable. The property is secluded and very quiet, but 15 minutes from Meadows of Dan and Chateau Morrisette Winery and Restaurant. Communication with the host was great!

The cabin was great, clean, very well equipped with everything you could need. It also has great charm with the old cabins bookending the addition. The great room/living room was large and very comfortable. We loved how secluded the cabin was. The views were by far the best part. The apple trees next to the deck were deer magnets. Even had the chance to see two large bucks, which you never see. We would absolutely stay there again! Thank you!
