Located in Wytheville, this cottage is in the mountains. Gibboney Rock House Museum and Rose Lawn Cemetery are local landmarks, and the area's natural beauty can be seen at Big Survey Wildlife Management Area and Jefferson National Forest. East River Park and Fort Chiswell Animal Park are also worth visiting. Discover the area's water adventures with kayaking and fishing nearby, or enjoy the great outdoors with ecotours and mountain climbing.
This is absolutely a DIAMOND in the rough! The property was so much more beautiful and serene than the listing even gave credit for. The hosts are sweet as can be and downtown was a quick trip away even though the cabin feels entirely secluded.

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us such a nice review! It really means alot to us when we hear that our guests have enjoyed their time here on the mountain.
This is our most favorable place! We stay overnight on our way to the coast and it beats any hotel you could find! If you are looking for seclusion and peace and quiet, this is the spot! Cant wait for our next stay!

Thanks so much for staying at our little mountain hideaway...again!
Beautiful cabin in the woods. Extremely clean and well appointed. Very nice outdoor area. I would recommend getting here before dark so you can see everything the property has to offer outdoors. Would definitely stay here again.

So glad you two enjoyed your stay! Thanks for the nice review
Comfortable, clean, well supplied. Wonderful outdoor shower! An absolutely delightful stay! I highly recommend! And a drive over the mountain to Burkes Garden is worth the adventure!

Thanks for the nice review Susan. It means a lot to us when we hear that our guests have enjoyed their time here on the mountain. Please come again anytime.
I need a sixth star to do this place justice. Absolutely gorgeous. A bit of an adventure to get to, but the directions are detailed and the signage is clear. Quiet, clean, complete with all the little thoughtful details I could have wished for and more. Highly recommended!

A wondeful cabin in the woods with everything we needed for a quiet weekend getaway. We spent mornings and evenings on the front porch enjoying the sounds of the woods and enjoying nature.The road to the cabin was rough but easily navigated in iur SUV.

We're very glad that you folks enjoyed your stay and took the time to leave us this nice review. We like to think that the drive in only adds to the adventure.
Marc & Lindy have a beautiful property. It’s very secluded and private. Pristine, beautifully decorated, great taste through and through. Fire pit, gas grill, swing in between the trees, etc. Marc & Lindy were exceptional hosts. This cabin is unique beyond words.

Thanks so much for making the journey up the mountain and for leaving us this wonderful review.
The pictures don’t do justice for how beautiful this place was the views was amazing. I really enjoyed my stay there. There is nothing like having your morning coffee on the porch while watching deer graze not even bothered by you. We met the owners and they were very nice and welcoming. 10/10 recommend! The only regret I have is not booking more days here.

The secluded ridge top cabin was wonderful!! It was quite an adventure driving up the mountain but once we arrived... the cabin, mountain views and front porch peace were amazing!! We enjoyed our restful stay! Thank you for your welcoming visit, Marc and Lindy.

Nothing like a little nature time to recharge your soul. Thanks for taking the time to leave this nice review.
Amazingly clean, cozy, and quiet. The view and area are quiet, peaceful. The owners are wonderful people who made sure we understood everything needed for the stay and even left some snacks and tea for us. We stayed for one night but already want to stay again
The property is just as advertised. It is a beautiful and secluded location. Marc and Lindy take great pride in this property and making their guests happy. The cabin is very clean and well kept. I would recommend this location to anyone and plan on returning sometime.
