There's no place like home, except here!
Welcome to the Hillside Hideaway. Our newest location is located just two miles off the Blue Ridge Parkway onto Route 58 in the quaint little town of Meadows of Dan, Virginia. Fish, hike, picnic and more, all from our cabin. We are less than 5 miles away from Chateau Morrisette, several other wineries, two golf courses, Mabry Mill and Lovers Leap...there is always plenty to do.
When you walk in the door, expect a little surprise. This 1920's rustic cabin isn't just comfortable, clean and cozy with all the amenities of home, it's classic! From the furniture to the linens, you'll find everything fresh! Less than a minute from the Blue Ridge Parkway, our cabin is perfect for your stay in the mountains. Some of our favorite characteristics of the cabin are the creaky wood floors, original lead glass windows, large stone fireplace and wrap around porch with a picture perfect view of the historic Cockram Mill pond, where the Dan River Queen once circled. The floors and wood walls are original to our newly furnished home with new, fluffy towels and 100% cotton linens. The cabin has new appliances and dishes with a vintage feel and the kitchen is fully stocked with service for eight. The dining room table seats six to eight comfortably. You’ll find fresh milk, OJ and assorted cereal ready for you when you arrive. And, as with all our Buffalo Mountain Getaway properties, our signature Keurig Brew Station will be stocked with coffee, cocoa and tea.
Although we prefer relaxing on the porch, hiking the walking trails or fishing in the pond, the high speed internet does allow for easy working/remote learning. 42” smart tv in living room armoire. Landline also present if needed.
The deck covers three sides of the house with only one step up access to the main level. Since we are pet friendly, we also have a small fenced area for them to utilize.
Head upstairs to find the sleeping quarters. You'll pass through the small bunk room with two bunks to reach the master bedroom. The romantic master bedroom includes a queen size bed, cellphone charger, small television with Netflix and Prime Video and a great view. The bathroom is on the main level with a tub/shower and laundry for your convenience.
Please note: due to its age, the home is not wheelchair accessible. The stairs are narrow. My 6’2” husband needs to duck at the top. At 5’2”, I don’t.
Our pond is fully exposed, so smaller children may not be safe. Please keep this in mind. Feel free to catch and release all the fish you want, just remember to bring your own poles.
You'll have the cabin all to yourself.
We are just a phone call away!
Rural area with woods to explore, pond to swim and fish and a porch to relax.
Verizon has decent cell service, but AT&T DOES NOT.
Also, our local internet provider, Century Link, can sometimes be finicky. If that happens, we can send a link to help reset it. WE HATE IT, but it's all that is available in our area.
Just a few reminders:
1 - Pets allowed with permission, MAX 2 dogs, sorry NO cats.
2 - Absolutely NO Smoking
3 - Please do not move furniture
4 - Keep it clean. When you leave it should look the same as you entered, with the exception of bed linens and towels
5 - Remember it's our home, so treat it with respect
6 - The grill is charcoal.
7 - IMPORTANT: Landline phone available for local and 911 calls, as well as inbound calls. Number is shown after booking. Please share with your friends and families should they need to call. Verizon has excellent service at the Cabin, but AT&T is NOT. WiFi calling works well if you have that feature.
