The picture shows the property in the winter. We rented in August, It is very secluded, weeds were grown up all around the front, and water is just a little pond with very little water. Definitely need AWD vehicle, road is sketchy.

The log cabin was beautifully crafted, clean and surprisingly free of insects, especially considering being surrounded by woods. It was so peaceful to sit on the front porch and read a book when not out hiking the Triple Crown, and it was wonderful how close the trail heads were to the cabin. The gravel driveway is something that you just need to take your time on, and is worth the time when you get to the cabin and are surrounded by wilderness and solitude. Definitely recommend.

This cabin is the perfect location to use as a basecamp for hiking the Triple crown- all 3 trailheads were within about a 10 minute drive. We hiked every morning and were back to the cabin by early afternoon. Every night was finished off with a campfire and s'mores outside. The weather in early April was absolutely perfect!

This was a great secluded cabin to spend the weekend! It was an a short, scenic drive to the AT trailhead to hike to McAfee Knob, which was just beautiful! We even passed some thru hikers on the way back! It’s about 30 minutes to Roanoke where we got dinner and walked around. It’s a cute little town. There’s a great store there called Mast General Store that I got lost in because they have everything! The house itself is clean and was equipped for what we needed. They supplied a keurig coffee maker and had some pods too which was nice. And we loved the porch swing to sit and listen to the birds and the short rain storm we had. The host was very quick to answer a few questions I had as well. I would definitely recommend this property!

Super location for hiking

Lovely, secluded cabin very close to multiple trailheads. Trout pond has a waterfall and it is so peaceful to sit on the porch and listen to the water and look into the forest. Interior is nicely furnished and comfortable.

The cabin was sooooo cute and totally private tucked in the woods. It had everything we needed for our short weekend stay. It was well-appointed and very comfortable. The host was very responsive. The smoke alarm was beeping when we arrived and he was there within moments to resolve it.

What a beautiful spot to land after our crazy hard Triple Crown AT hike! The cabin is impressive — a true log cabin but with stylish details throughout. Comfy beds, nice bookshelf selection, super hot shower, fast laundry, front porch swing, and trout pond with food available to feed them. Ronnie is a gracious host, providing guidance regarding our route and water availability, as well as the delicious and authentic Pancho Mexican restaurant nearby. We loved our brief but restful stay!

We had a great time at the cabin. The kids enjoyed feeding the trout and running up and down the path. The home was well stocked with essentials and was incredibly cozy. We would absolutely stay there again, especially this time of year.

Wonderful seclusion!!

We loved the log cabin in the woods. Although we had plans to explore the area, instead we chose to stay on the property and simply enjoy the awesome porch swing!! Peaceful, relaxing and secluded. Also loved feeding the trout.
