Far View Cabin | Private Retreat w/ Hot Tub

Summary:
Welcome to Far View Cabin, a peaceful mountain retreat atop the Blue Ridge Mountains and just minutes from the Appalachian Trail. Relax in the hot tub, enjoy the screened-in porch with stunning views, or unwind next to our propane fire pit. The basement game room is perfect for family fun, and with high-speed internet and dedicated desk space, it’s ideal for both work and play. Whether you're here for adventure or relaxation, Far View Cabin offers the perfect getaway in the heart of nature.

The Space:
Your getaway begins with a scenic drive up Virginia’s Blue Mountains, where the cabin offers breathtaking views stretching over 50 miles on clear days. Whether you’re here to unwind or reconnect with loved ones, this cabin is designed for relaxation and togetherness. The main floor’s open-concept kitchen, dining area, and living room feature oversized couches centered around a striking two-story fireplace—perfect for cozy autumn and winter evenings.

The kitchen is a chef’s dream, equipped with everything you need for crafting your culinary delights. You’ll have access to high-quality cookware and appliances, including a full-size oven, Vitamix blender, KitchAid mixer, crockpot, toaster, waffle iron, and more. There’s ample dinnerware, wine glasses, and silverware for all your guests, so you can host in style.

Step outside onto the large screened-in porch, where you can enjoy your morning coffee while watching the valley come alive with vibrant fall colors. In the evening, the porch transforms into the perfect spot to take in the stunning sunsets. A large grill is also conveniently located just outside the kitchen, making outdoor meals a breeze. Two first-floor bedrooms, each with a workspace, and a full-size bathroom round out this level.

Upstairs, the loft offers a cozy retreat with two futons and a 43” TV—an ideal space to curl up with a good book or watch your favorite show.

In the basement, you’ll find another inviting living area with a sectional couch, additional seating, a second fireplace, and a 75” TV with sound bar. The oversized games make it perfect for family fun. A third bedroom, full bathroom, and laundry room are also on this floor, with direct access to the hot tub—just steps away for year-round relaxation.

We take pride in decorating the property seasonally, so you can expect beautiful autumn décor through November before changing over to festive holiday accents.

Guest Access:
Guests have access to the entire cabin excluding storage closets.

The Neighborhood:
Far View Cabin sits within a community of full-time residents, vacation home owners, and short term rentals.

Other Things to Note:
We welcome up to one dog at this property - please add a pet to your reservation to cover the additional fee. Additional pets are considered on a case-by-case basis. Please send an inquiry to discuss. Service animals are welcome, but please let us know about them in advance so we can let our cleaner know.

Our area is surrounded by wildlife - you will regularly see deer and may even sneak a peak at a black bear hanging out on the mountain. While the house rarely houses critters of its own, the occasional bug or tiny creature may make a visit!

We have guest wellness and safety guide all of our decisions. All bedding, including sheets, quilts, and blankets are washed between every reservation and all bedrooms have smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and multiple fire extinguishers are available. Our cabin also has a Minut sound monitoring device centrally located in the hallway - the device monitors decibel levels but does not collect or record audio. Its settings are triggered to let us know when noise at the level of a party is present.

The basement fireplace offers an electric insert; however the living room fireplace is for ambiance only and wood burning fires are not permitted.

Interaction with Guests:
We're available via Airbnb messages, text, or phone. While we respect your privacy and aim to be hands-off, please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions, thoughts, or concerns. Your comfort and enjoyment of the property are our top priorities.

Peaceful property, nice sunrise views, clean and very accommodating!
We took a few days to stay at this little slice of heaven in the mountains which was easily accessible but yet offered enough privacy to feel secluded.

Unplugged Mountain Getaway
Everything we could need or want was there for us. The Cabin was clean, welcoming and was comfoetable. We spent many hours on the screened in porch playing cards, at the main floor dining table with a puzzle and sunsets in the hot tub. Would come back again for sure!

Great retreat
The kitchen was awesome and the big screen in the basement made for some epic movie nights. The flooring on the main level was a little hazardous as some pieces stabbed in our shoes but I would highly recommend this home! AMAZING VIEWS

Simply Wonderful
All you need to bring are cloths and groceries. All the amenities provided were fantastic, with a well stocked kitchen for cooking. The cabin was superbly clean and well organized with all remotes, cabinets, and drawers clearly labeled, the bedding, linens, and pillows were of nice quality. An online guidebook tells you everything you need to know including local places to eat or grab groceries once checked in. The hot tub provided a wonderful way to relax and enjoy the view or stars, was very clean and well maintained. The customer service was prompt and gracious. In addition, we really loved how the cabin was decorated for Christmas with beautiful lighted garland inside and out. The area is quiet, peaceful and the cabin a warm and cozy place to spend time and unwind. It was even better than the pictures!

Beautiful cabin with a view. Beyond our expectations.
I know this is a long review and this is the first time I have reviewed a rental but I was so impressed. Peaceful, surprisingly roomy, loved there are so many areas to relax in small groups. We like to gather together and there is room for that ,but sometimes it is so nice to split in groups. You could sit in the beautiful screen porch, living room, loft, awesome downstairs with plenty of seating, beautiful lighted fireplace was a hit, giant tv, for the younger set to game or watch movies, then the hot tub with a nice view. Our host Matt was amazing when I texted him he would get back quickly and was so accomodating. So much care was taken in putting this cabin together to make your stay comfortable. My grandaughter is in culinary school and I am quite the chef. Because of the discription of the kichen we planned our meals packed our food and crossed our fingers it was really true.We had 3 generations cooking together in the lovely kitchen with awesome high quality pans etc. I cant even list them all. We loved the glass trays we used for charcuterie and nice dinnerware set for meals. If I knew there was a vitamix there I would have done some planning and used it.. We are big coffee people. they have a coffee press, k cup, and a drip maker there. Kitchenaid mixer. Nice set of wineglsses. great bbq. All the beds were very very comfortable. Everyone said they loved their bed and slept so good. I would stay again when I am in the area and hightly reccomend
