About this property

Log Home Retreat On Picturesque Private Farm

Get away from it all at this log cabin home in beautiful West Augusta. Enjoy the private setting surrounded by a 900+ acre farm that backs up to the George Washington National Forest. Plenty of walking/hiking trails, multiple ponds for catch and release fishing, and various wildlife viewing opportunities.

Located a short drive from Historic Staunton or beautiful Highland County.

The custom built home features an open living room with large stone fireplace, kitchen, and dining area on the main floor as well as the master bedroom and bath. Upstairs is the second bedroom, bathroom and loft area overlooking the living room. The finished, walk-out basement features a bar, game table, foosball table, and sitting area with a sleeper sofa as well as a bathroom with washer and dryer. The loft area and finished basement provide areas for optional sleeping arrangements , i.e. air mattresses.

The house has a full wrap around deck including a screened porch with large picnic table. Relax and enjoy the beautiful views from the rocking chairs on the porch.

Charcoal grill on site (bring charcoal and/or lighter fluid). Linens provided. Please bring paper products, soaps, detergents and trash bags.

New to the home as of May 2025 is Wifi. There is no cell service within a 5 mile radius, so the Wifi allows for use of cell phones and internet. There is a TV with DVD player as well as a house phone for your use.

We do not allow hunting on the property or access to the National Forest for the purpose of hunting. There are many nearby areas off the property to legally access the National Forest designated for general public.

About the host

Hosted by Luke and Leslie Hewitt

Host profile image
We are Luke and Leslie Hewitt. Luke and I were married on this property in 2011 on Star Hill. My father bought the first piece of this property in 1993, and was able to add to it over the years. Luke and I started living out here in 2011, and became full owners in 2016. We have three children: Hunter, 17; Lauren, 14; and Charlotte, 8. We love this beautiful, peaceful spot in the Shenandoah Valley. Luke is an avid hunter and fisherman and has wonderful access to both right here. This is where we've chosen to build our life and raise our family.
