Great place overall suiting my needs. Space for kitchen items is small, which is fine but sorting and getting organizers would be helpful. Nice hot water and bed slept good.
The cabin was fabulous - had everything we needed. We actually spent an evening playing in the arcade and had a blast listening to the jukebox and playing all the different games (not something we normally would do). We would stay here again without hesitation - but next time bring our fly rod!
We had such a a wonderful stay here and would absolutely stay here again. It was very convenient for hiking at Grayson Highlands. The house was clean and comfortable. We were especially impressed with how well stocked the kitchen was and how nice the water was, not sulfury at all.
We had a great stay. This would be a wonderful property for a group or family to rent all the cabins at once. Loved how close to Grayson Highlands State Park we were!
the cabin was cozy and clean with everything needed for a long weekend stay. The game room had some fun games and was a good way to spend a rainy evening.
We really enjoyed the beautiful tiny cabin and it's proximity to Grayson Highlands. The cabin was well equipped and had a great sunrise view. The short walk to the stream was nice, too.
Really enjoyed our stay. My nephew and I went backpacking and my mom and sister stayed at the cabin. The last day my sister and nephew went home and I stayed one night in the cabin. Awesome place!
This is a great location to section hike the AT. The State park is right down the road. The cabin was cozy and had all the kitchen needs for the meals that we cooked. Highly recommend staying here.
The perfect little cabin for our mountain getaway! Very clean, comfortable and cozy. We will definitely be back! We enjoyed walks to the creek , the arcade and being able to use the kayaks was great !
We used the cabin as our base for a hiking / bouldering experience with the multiple options within minutes all around. Great set up for the three of us. All the little things we needed in the kitchen and so many things to make the stay super enjoyable and comfortable. Plenty of space to lounge and stretch out after long days of hiking.
Perfect place for Spring Break with our 9 and 11yos and dog :)
The cabin was fantastic and so close the Grayson Highlands for hiking and the Virginia Creeper Trail!
Every one loved the arcade and drive in!
The cabin was very clean and well maintained. The description provided is accurate. It is located a short distance from Grayson State Park and I highly recommend taking the time to explore. The community arcade was a fun little way to keep busy while at the cabin. Overall it was a great experience! I would recommend this cabin to others and will be visiting again.

Why they chose this property
We bought this property as a vacation home to get away from busy day to day work life. I enjoy fishing the trout river next to the property, and hiking on and off the trails in the back of the property. The area is quaint, with a few local stores, Christmas tree/pumpkin farms sprinkled over the hilltops. The sound of the stream in front of the house can be heard from the porch.
