Awesome views - private mountaintop cabin - outdoor fire pit + pet friendly!

***4WD/AWD Vehicle Highly Recommended***

With sweeping views from the wraparound deck, the cabin feels a world away while just 15 minutes from I-77. A peaceful escape for those looking to unwind or 20 min to the New River State Park.

Spend your days exploring nearby trails or wineries or simply stay put and take in the surroundings. Fire up the grill, catch an amazing sunrise or sunset and settle in for a peaceful escape from the everyday.

The “Easy Plateau” is your cozy, pet-friendly 2 bed/1 bath cabin w/ an open-concept living area, full kitchen, office and loft along with a wraparound covered deck and outdoor firepit area.

SLEEPING:

(1) Main Floor Bedroom – King bed, dresser, clothing rack, Roku TV

(2) Upstairs Bedroom – Queen bed, clothing rack, Roku TV

LIVING SPACE/s:

The main level is an open concept space with a living area with comfy oversized chair, sofa and a 55” Roku Tv. The full kitchen is equipped for cooking up your favorite meals. We provide the essentials such as a starter kit of coffee, sugar and creamers for the drip coffee maker as well as basic seasonings and cooking oil. There are dishes, glassware, pots and pans, baking sheets, utensils, etc. There is a dining table that seats 4 and 2 additional bar stools at the kitchen counter.

Off the living area is a favorite spot - the wraparound covered deck. Catch the sunrise from the rocking chairs out front and unwind with your favorite beverage while watching the sunset from the sitting area off the living room.

Upstairs is the loft area. Relax in the reading nook and fill the space with some music from the record player. In addition to the queen bedroom upstairs, there is a small office with a desk and couch — ideal for journaling, reading, or sneaking in a Zoom call (fast Starlink internet can steam multiple devices).

OUTDOORS:

In addition to the covered deck with rocking chairs + cozy lounge seating, the backyard has a fire pit with Adirondack chairs to relax under the stars. There is a charcoal grill and picnic table (BYO charcoal & firewood).

ADDITIONAL GOOD TO KNOW DETAILS:

The cabin has central heating and A/C. The upstairs areas can get warm in summer, especially during the heat of the day. We are in the mountains so evenings typically cool down. The downstairs bedroom stays nice and cool but the upstairs bedroom and loft space will be warm if it’s a really hot day.

AWD/4WD vehicle required to make it up the steep gravel drive. Most 2WD vehicles will not be able to make it up the driveway due to the grade. Please ensure you have a vehicle that can handle these road conditions. There is a parking spot at the bottom of the driveway should your vehicle not make the ascent but please read past reviews from guests that could not make it up the driveway. It can be a miserable walk if you have to haul your supplies up the long drive.

Pack light - we stock the cabin with towels, linens, soaps, coffee, basic cooking spices and starter paper goods.

LOCAL AREA:
When you stay at our cabin, you can disconnect and enjoy a private getaway. Many visit to simply stay in and relax. If you want to explore more of Virginia's Blue Ridge, there's plenty to see! Expect a bit of a drive for most restaurants and shopping. You can visit the New River State Park - Foster Falls (15-20 min) for hiking, biking or walking along the river, rent bikes and canoes, go river tubing, fishing or arrange a guided horseback trip. You can also explore nearby towns such as Hillsville, Wytheville and Galax to shop at unique antique stores, visit wineries and breweries, and find some great dining spots. Most activities and towns are a 30+ minute drive from the cabin but there are some great spots (Iron Heart Winery is a favorite) within about a 15 minute drive.

OUTDOOR CAMERA: There is an outdoor camera facing the outside staircase/entrance. It is on 24/7 and can record video and sound.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 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 desk.

Must read!

This property is beautiful and the house is wonderful. It is very important that anyone who stays here is aware of the steepness of the driveway! My car could not make it up. I had read the reviews that warned me and I just thought they were over reacting. They were not. I had to haul my stuff in from half way up because my car could not make it any farther up. If you have kids or are traveling with anyone with a disability, make sure you have a good four wheel drive! That being said, it was incredible and I loved it. Allison was amazing and I got some blissful rest.

Amazing get away!!

It was quiet and secluded, and gave my girlfriend and I a chance to unplug from our day to day lives in the city. The place was clean and orderly. Close by was the New River trial which we took advantage of. There isn’t any negative things I can say other than the flood lights were a little too sensitive and were going off all night. Which could be because of our deer friends or just a branch in the wind. The drive up the hill was fun because I have a Jeep and off-roading is its thing. Overall I would definitely come stay again and make this a regular visit.

Cabin retreat

A friend and I stayed at this cabin 3 nights to do some walleye fishing on the New River. It was a little hard to find, but that is the only negative about this place. It was beautiful, clean, comfortable and inviting. Could not have envisioned a better stay for our trip.

Perfect cabin overlook

A great piece of property with views for days. Had all the amenities we needed. Will definitely return one day. Note: we were able to make it up the driveway in a 2WD pickup with a running start, but regular cars or minivans will struggle. Absolutely worth the climb.

Perfect for a getaway

Cabin was exactly as described, and a perfect remote hideaway to relax for a few days. Very much enjoyed sitting out on the deck and watching the sunrise and sunset. Clean, well stocked with items we needed for cooking and grateful to be able to bring our dogs where they enjoyed roaming around the property.

A great getaway spot.

We booked this great little cabin for visiting family in the area. It is very clean and communication from the host was excellent. The views are excellent and sunrises are truly spectacular. The advisory about the driveway is not exaggeration, since my truck is 4x4, it was not a n issue. The only way to get great vistas is by being high up.

More comfortable than a hotel and far more charming

Sometimes it’s the little things that make all the difference: a curved shower curtain rod, a supply of coffee and creamers, remote controls for the bedroom ceiling fans. Despite how rustic the cabin is, our stay was more comfortable than in most hotels. The unit was sparkling clean upon our arrival, to boot. The listing is not exaggerating about the driveway. Our F-150 was fine in 4WD but we tried it once in 2WD and would not have made it. The wraparound porch was a perfect place to spend most of our time, enjoying the view and watching the hawks and occasional deer. There’s a flying squirrel living in the birdhouse by the driveway who watched us in return. :) 10/10 would highly recommend.

Wonderful little Cabin

It was amazing. If you are looking for a place with scenic views look no further! Absolutely stunning to walk around the deck and enjoy the blue ridge mountains. However, I would HIGHLY recommend a 4WD. Don’t make the mistake we made and think “oh well, I am a good driver it shouldn’t be an issue”… chances of someone getting up the last few hundred feet with a fully loaded front wheel drive are very slim!! Anyways, it’s great to disconnect while at the same time you have everything you need from great cell reception to high speed internet. The host is super nice as well!
