Secluded Mountain Cabin, Lakefront, Hiking, Fishing, Relaxing

This cozy, rustic, mountain retreat is situated on four secluded acres in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

A five minute drive will take you to the trail head of "White Oak Canyon Falls" or ten minutes to "Old Rag Mountain", two of Virginia's most acclaimed hiking trails, complete with water falls and rock scrambling. It is also only fifteen minutes from the entrance to the Blue Ridge Parkway for lovely drives or numerous other hiking trails. There are several Civil War battle sites within easy driving distance, for those history buffs in your family. The cabin is fully furnished with linens, dishes, microwave, and fireplace, etc. Dialup internet is available for those who just can't unplug. Check with your internet provider for access numbers. If something romantic, peaceful, or adventurous is what you are seeking...you have found it!

Great location, clean cabin, lots of fun!
Really enjoyed our stay at ORMC. The checkin process was simple and the cabin was very clean. Had no issues whatsoever. Had a great time fishing, hiking, and swimming in the surrounding area. Will likely return at some point!

Cozy and Welcoming Stay
The property is remote but check-in directions provided by the hosts were clear and easy to follow. The cabin was clean and had plenty of linens and towels, along with a reasonably well-stocked kitchenette. Overall, a lovely stay - note there is internet or cellphone service!

Cozy new year's getaway
We had a lovely new year's weekend tucked away in Jane's cozy cabin. Her directions and instructions to get to and get in the cabin are very good, given that you will lose cell signal about 5-6 miles away from the cabin. My gps did still work correctly, but be prepared not to rely on it. There are also a good number of steps to get to the cabin from the driveway. This isn't a place for anyone with mobility issues. That said, we had the best time unplugging, just watching movies, going for walks around the pond, watching deer and other wildlife go about their day. It was not a big deal to get back to Madison for groceries. And Graves Mountain Lodge and a little deli are very close by. It was perfect for a weekend getaway.

Weekend getaway!
The cabin is very cozy and private, although there are neighbors but no one too close. It is very dated and better not suited for kids under 4 yrs of age ( because of the wood stove location and outlets) The pond view is very pretty. We visited a few local wineries. Overall, we had a very relaxed stress-free weekend. We would definitely return. I bet fall is beautiful there. It is not handicapped accessible.

you're down to be unplugged in a cozy spot with no frills, this is the place for you.
My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights as a "mini honeymoon", it was the perfect escape to completely unplug and relax following our crazy busy summer and wedding weekend. The kitchen is bare bones but had what we needed to cook some simple meals (pot, pan, strainer, spatula, etc). The bed in the larger room was not very comfortable for me but my husband didn't mind it, so if you're finniky about mattresses take that into account. The pond and surrounding area is beautiful and we enjoyed sitting by the firepit in the evening. Close to hiking trails with waterfalls and a nice country store which we really enjoyed visiting. The AC in the cabin worked well to cool the small space and it was a very hot week! Overall, we were thrilled with our stay and my husband kept saying he wished we had booked a full week.

Peaceful Getaway
The cabin is clean and cozy. The balcony does face the pond, but couldn't see much of it because some small tree branches block the view. I would have liked to see more of the pond from the balcony. However, walk down to dock and get a gorgeous view of the pond. Caught 4 Bream off the dock as well. If like privacy, peace and quiet, this is the place to be.

Saftey First
I wish that I was informed about all the steps to get to the cabin. I as well as my family member have a disability and had to go up 25 steps to and from the cabin. 20 of the steps had no railing to hold on to and a a few of the steps at the top were broken. Otherwise I loved the cabin and it was very clean.
