About this property

This luxury peg, post and beam timber-frame cabin sits on top of a ridge on 43 unspoiled acres. Note: the driveway is steep and front wheel drive is recommended.
Quiet, secluded with spectacular mountain views all around. Explore the walking trails on the property that lead to the Top-O-The-Ridge where you can see the North Carolina side of the Blue Ridge off in the distance. Follow the less strenuous get-away trail which will lead you to an intimate view of the peaceful valley below while relaxing in an Adirondack chair or on the A-frame swing. Maybe just head down the ridge to Helton Creek, which borders the property, and enjoy the sounds of the bold stream or try your hand at fly fishing for some of the native or stocked trout. Or...just sit on the porch and enjoy the vistas. You may never want to leave!
This beautiful home has 3 porches, each with spectacular views. Enjoy dinner or a warm fire outside on the back deck. Build a roaring bon-fire in the camp fire pit overlooking Grayson Highlands State Park. At night the stars are magnificent! Inside, sit on the large hearth of the nearly 30 foot stone fireplace and soak in the warmth and sounds of another crackling fire.
Indulge in the many activities close by. Lily Ridge is just 10 min. from the Virginia Creeper Trail and only 3 miles from Grayson Highlands State Park. Local attractions/activities include hiking, fishing, biking, horseback riding, music, and festivals throughout the year.
West Jefferson, NC is 25 min away where there are a variety of restaurants from BBQ to fine dining. Enjoy local art work, shops and antiquing. Nearby, enjoy the ambiance, a glass of wine and fine dining offered by the River House located on the North Fork of the New River. There are several golf courses located in West Jefferson and the New River is a beautiful place to canoe, tube or kayak.
In the other direction over the peak of Whitetop Mountain, is Abingdon, Virginia, a vibrant and quaint destination and home to the historic Barter Theater. Abingdon is a short 45 minute drive along the famed Crooked Road Music Trail. Explore the town, try the original Tavern which has been in continuous operation since the 1700's and visit the Abingdon Winery on the way there or on the way back to Lily Ridge.
Boone, NC is an hour from Whitetop as well as the quaint community of Blowing Rock. Shop, ski, rock climb or zip line. The choices in and around Lily Ridge Cabin are limitless.
We manage the property personally to make sure your stay is an enjoyable and memorable experience! We hope you will consider staying with us soon!

Family gathering for Grayson Highlands Race

The cabin/house was beautifully situated, both for access to Grayson Highlands State Park and to take advantage of deck sitting with beautiful views. We enjoyed all the conveniences of the fireplace, fire pit, grill, and short hike to a crest for even more beautiful views. We woke up the first morning to 7 deer we could watch as we drank our coffee!

Family Time Cabin

My family was able to spend quality time together at this beautiful house. The kitchen was perfect for cooking breakfast, the dining table excellent for puzzling in the bright morning light, the living room for catching up with one another by a fire, the downstairs den for movie nights, and the outdoor paths and porches for beautiful views.

Epic family holiday getaway

This beautiful place was the perfect venue to bring our family together for Thanksgiving. It was exactly as described, had plenty of needed amenities and the layout gave each of us a separate space of our own. Important things when cooped up due to weather. Would definitely recommend! Owner was responsive and kind. The fireplace was fantastic and we enjoyed many games at the table. The sunrises were stunning! I could go on, but ai think you get the picture.

Mountain Paradise

The house and location are spectacular. Easy access to Grayson Highlands and a nice and relatively easy trip to Lansing and West Jefferson, which should be your go to places for food/etc. Rt 58 truly earns it's Crooked Road name, and should be avoided if you need to get somewhere quickly or have car sick prone passengers. Laurel Valley Rd is a good alternative and can be reached via Whitetop Rd. We have been to this area a lot, and we will be coming back to Lily Ridge again!

Just Beautiful!

The house and surrounding property is amazing. I can only imagine how this must look in the fall with the views. We did the Creeper bike ride which is always fun. This was quite an adventure. The driveway to the property is somewhat steep but not a big deal. If you want something different this is the one.

Lily Ridge is a slice of Heaven

We've stayed in lots of rental houses, and Lily Ridge is particularly perfect for those who want to connect with natural beauty; the mountains of Southwest Virginia in this instance. The porches and outdoor seating options take advantage of the absolute gorgeous surroundings with spectacular views from every angle. The interior of Lily Ridge cabin is equally stunning with a great floor plan and so many inviting comforts. Our group of four loved so many facets of this beautiful house; including an absolutely wonderful music collection that served as the perfect soundtrack for our four night stay. This property gets 10 stars across the board.

About the host

Hosted by Sheila Lange

Todd and Sheila Lange have been married for over 30 years, reside in Statesville, North Carolina and have three children, a 31 year old girl, a 29 year old boy and a 22 year old boy. We have enjoyed many happy moments in and around Lily Ridge Cabin and love sharing it with friends, family and guests. Was always a dream of ours to build a home in the mountains and we were fortunate enough to be able to do so. The home and property is near where Sheila's father was born and the Cole Cemetery below the property is named after her family. Lots of history for her and now the rest of us in the area.

Why they chose this property

See above. It is most of all connected to us and extended family and offers a complete and unspoiled retreat from the world. The views are spectacular and at night there is absolutely no light pollution so the stars are limitless. The other things is the connection to the roots of Country Music and Blue Grass legends. Even if you don't think you like Blue Grass Music, try some contemporary takes from Allison Kraus, Sierra Hull, Dan Tyminski or old acoustic classics from John Prine, Jackson Browne while enjoying the fire overlooking the mountains. Turn the overhead lights off and use the floor or table lighting to make your stay warm and cozy. Get a feel for Appalachia through the proximity of Lily Ridge Cabin to the roots of County Music.
