VISITOR INFORMATION
 Discover the beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains
in this 4500 sq. ft log cabin nestled on 120 acres of private
land in the midst of the Jefferson National Forest. Located just
north of Marion, Virginia, 22 miles west of Hwy 77 (exit 52,
Bland) on route 42, you will be able to hike or ride horses across
many miles of local trails or the Appalachian Trail itself. This
area of Southwest Virginia, known as the scenic rich “Blue
Ridge Highlands”, is replete with historic beauty and offers
something for all seasons.

large kitchen with two ovens, and a wrap-around porch offering
plenty of views.

 Burkes
Garden, which can be visited on horseback, bicycle, or automobile,
is just down the road. Known as the thumbprint of God, it is
a natural plateau where a recent Lassie movie was filmed.
-
- The Appalachian Trail is less
than 5 minutes away, and The Hungry Mother Park is less than
15 miles over Walker Mountain. If you are a music lover, bluegrass
gatherings are available weekly, year around.
-
 Although
there are numerous local attractions, the main attraction is
the cabin itself and its calm surroundings. Ideal for family
or group retreats, the property with its many views, may be enjoyed
by hiking or horseback riding. Moderately priced guided trail
rides and riding lessons are available from the cabin and for
qualified individuals horses can be reserved for the entire stay.
-
 Deep
in the woods about a half-mile from the cabin is a corral with
facilities for tent camping. Be prepared, it is not uncommon
for coyotes to go howling by.
-
- “Cabin in the Blue Ridge”
is family owned and is ideal for family and group retreats. Rental
prices are moderate and special consideration is given to Christian
and church organizations. For these groups 10 percent of the
rental price is donated back to the church or renting organization.
