I want to thank Marc and Lindy for making us feel at home from the very moment we arrived. They greeted us when we arrived and they were so welcoming and made you feel like family. The beauty of the cabin was breath taking, with all the woodwork and craftsmanship. It definitely was the perfect place to unplug and take in nature. Look forward to coming again and stay for longer.

Beautiful mountain retreat. If you’re looking for a peaceful place to rejuvenate your soul, this immaculately clean cabin is just the ticket!The floor plan is thoughtfully designed to make use of the tidy space. It’s very well built ….The stairs don’t even creak! The decorative elements and live houseplants show just how much this place is lovingly cared for. With three outdoor seating areas and numerous windows that open, you have access to nature from every room. You also have a hammock, a pic-nic table/grille and a fire pit. I adored the screened door and the large windows over the kitchen sink. (The view made washing dishes feel meditative, rather than a chore!)The kitchen has everything you need to prepare full meals. I especially appreciated the little touches like coffee supplies, fresh fruit, brochures about local attractions and a great collection of books.This is a comfy “home away from home” that begs you to just relax and unwind. Listen to the birds, watch deer as you drink your morning tea, roast some marshmallows as the stars came out…. Just breath! We would love to come back for several days to hike in the area and would definitely hope to stay here again.

Slice of heaven

Despite the never ending torrent of rain we were blessed with for our stay, the cabin/location could not be more perfect! You can tell there is a lot of thought in planning the design of the cabin that they built themselves! We loved our short stay here, and will definitely be back!!

Amazing!

Absolutely the best place we have ever booked. The cabin is immaculate and has everything you need for a mountain getaway. We loved the fire pit and hiking trails. Only stayed one night and we plan on going back again very soon. Though it’s an easy drive to town for dinner, next time I’m bringing groceries so we won’t have to leave.

Mark & Lindy - your VRBO cabin was perfect for me. You thought of everything!! And were so kind and helpful. Wonderful queen bed, had the top 3 best showers of my life in your outdoor shower. Honestly I wasn’t ready to leave after just one night. I’ll be back for multiple nights someday soon and hope to meet my cousin there or bring a friend!

Heaven in the hills

Our time at Ridge Top was wonderful. Exceptionally clean and outfitted with any and everything we might need. The only sounds were the wind, the brief rain and the birds singing. The cabin was beautifully designed and built. There is room for 4-6 people to sleep and the beds are comfy. We will definitely be back and we will stay longer. There is even a fire pit and wood ready for making fireside treats.

Real Cabin Experience with Charm

I loved this place. I’ve stayed at a lot of cabins throughout the Appalachians. This one is very rare in actually being located deep in the woods, providing a ton of privacy and beautiful nature. The cabin itself is on a private driveway and backed up against secluded woods. It’s also decorated very well. We loved the first and second floor balconies allowing you to sit outside and read and relax, not to mention the hammock. I would give the owner feedback more than 5 stars if I could. They left a handwritten message on the counter for us before we got there and all of the information we needed. They text me back quickly when I reached out. I wished we were able to stay longer.

About the host

Hosted by Lindy Stewart

Host profile image
Being avid backpackers,we desired to live as deep in the woods as possible. So we started homesteading this property 25 years ago and love it so much that we thought that, perhaps, others would enjoy it as much as we do. So we built another cottage on the property and look forward sharing the experience.

Why they chose this property

Convenient to the nearby town of Wytheville but totally private and secluded. To access this property you must, first, find your way up the mountain. If you're the adventurous type and don't mind a drive up a well maintained gravel road, we think you will find it worth the effort. As you start up through a typical Appalachian holler you pass a by a few local residences. But as you venture further up the road it turns into more of a National Forest type setting. We are located 1.6 miles off the main road on a private, gated property and situated on a ridge top with incredible views of the nearby mountains.

What makes this property unique

Depending on the time of year, you can enjoy long hikes in the adjoining Jefferson National Forest, forage for wild mushrooms, visit a Paleozoic fossil site just up the trail or explore the Appalachian Trail on the next ridge over. In the spring the rhododendron and mountain laurel are spectacular. The Blue Ridge Parkway is about 30 miles away and the tallest mountain in Virginia, Mt Rogers with Grayson Highlands State Park and the famous wild ponies are also close by. You also might like to check out the Virginia Creeper Trail where you can rent a bike and spend the day coasting down an old railroad grade through spectacular scenery. The nearby town of Wytheville is only 8 miles distant and boasts two micro breweries the newly renovated Milwald Theater, several interesting museums and many eclectic eateries.
