Charming Historic Cabin, Modern Comfort: Newly Refreshed for Your Perfect Stay!

Keep reading for details about the close by NEW RIVER TRAIL STATE PARK.
Experience a simpler time in one of Wythe County’s oldest standing structures. Built circa 1850 from rare, hand-hewn American Chestnut logs, this lovingly preserved historic cabin blends old-world romance with modern luxury.
We have just completed an extensive, top-to-bottom spring cleaning, and the cabin is completely refreshed and sparkling for your summer getaway! Updates include brand-new, comfortable living room furniture, featuring a cozy loveseat and a plush, oversized recliner perfect for sinking into after a day of adventure.
Nestled right off Rt. 52 and I-77 with effortless, flat access (no winding, tricky mountain roads!), your worry-free mountain escape begins the moment you arrive with easy self-check-in. And just like that old TV ad promised, we’ll leave the light on for you.
Inside the Refreshed Cabin
• The Living Room: Unwind in our brand-new, premium furniture. Put your feet up in the plush, oversized recliner or curl up on the cozy new loveseat by the warm glow of the remote-controlled gas logs in the original stone fireplace. Features a 43” HD flat-screen TV with DirecTV and complimentary Wi-Fi.
• The Modern Kitchen: Fully equipped with a full-size electric range, refrigerator with ice maker, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, dishes, glassware, cookware and a large eat-in table. We provide coffee supplies for your first morning, basic seasonings, sugar, and creamer.
• The Bedroom Suite (Upstairs): A romantic oasis featuring exposed chestnut logs, a pillow-topped queen bed dressed in luxury linens, a large walk-in closet, and a 43" HD flat-screen TV. Fall asleep to the magical sound of a summer rain shower on the classic metal roof.
• Accessibility & Pet Note:
Our cozy second-floor bedroom is accessed by a stairway with dual handrails for your convenience. Because this cabin originally used a ladder to reach the loft, the current staircase is steeper than modern stairs. Please keep this unique feature in mind when booking in case you or your furry friend require a little easier access.

• Bathrooms & Laundry: A convenient half-bath is located just off the kitchen, an upstairs full bathroom features a tub/shower combo with plush towels, and a main-floor LG washer/dryer is fully stocked with detergent pods.
• Summer Comfort: A brand-new mini-split system provides individually controlled air conditioning (and heating) in every room, keeping you perfectly cool on warm summer days.
Outdoor Living & Amenities
• The Deck: Step outside into the warm summer air to listen to the gentle, soothing sounds of Shorts Creek flowing just below the cabin.
• Grilling: Cook up your favorite steaks, burgers, or the day's fresh catch on our Blackstone griddle grill.
• A Special Welcome: Enjoy a complimentary bottle of local wine from the renowned Chateau Morrissette Winery in nearby Floyd County.
• Pets Welcome! Your furry family members are part of the vacation. We even provide extra sheets in the laundry room so your well-behaved pets can curl up comfortably without furniture worries.
