Luxury Lake Cabin by New River Trail w/ Dock/Canoes/Steam Room/Fireplaces...

This mountain lake retreat is where people come to relax, connect and get away from it all. Surrounded by nature and adventure...
Lost Horizon has been a honeymoon retreat, family celebration destination, girlfriend getaway and fishing/biking hideout for lovers of the outdoors. Hikers, bikers and cross country skiers love the 57 mile New River Trail within walking distance of Lost Horizon. If you like watching birds, deer and a forest full of other animals... have a seat on one of the porches or decks at Lost Horizon – and don’t forget your camera.

Join them, or watch fishermen along the shoreline from your private hideaway above the lake.
Go down to the spacious deck for a day in the sun or cook-out on the lake, feed the ducks, or fish from the dock. You’ll have a fire pit right on the lake for roasting marshmallows. Play a game of horseshoes and swing on the rope swing. Two Canoes, oars & life jackets are provided for your exclusive use; bring floats or boats for more fun on the water.

Don’t miss sunrise & sunsets over the water... they are magnificent! Thunderstorms are even wonderful here! Listen to the rain pounding on the tin roof during a downpour from the covered porch, or cozy up in the cool autumn nights surrounded by the fall foliage; listen to the silence of a snowfall in the mountains. Build a fire or light the gas logs in either fireplace and cozy up to relax into the warm surroundings.

Lost Horizon sleeps up to eight people.
The top floor includes a bedroom suite; comfortable full futon sofa; private back deck above the pond, woods & flower gardens; shelves full of books and a cozy sitting area overlooking the main floor.
The private master suite is charmingly intimate on the main floor where you find a fully-equipped kitchen, bar seating, small dining table, living room with a gas fireplace and bathroom with old fashioned claw-foot soaker tub.

Downstairs you have a large steam room/shower with benches (and 6 different shower heads), a bar, comfortable wrap around sofa & full futon. French doors lead out to the patio with a hanging swing overlooking the lake.

A few hidden treasures at Lost Horizon: Enjoy a library of DVDs & books (including “Lost Horizon”). There are family games and a guest book to share your experiences & read about the adventures of those before you.
Sunsets from the deck or down at the dock will take your breath away. Lean back in the deck chairs & look up; you are likely to see eagles flying high above the trees in the daytime, and stars are brilliant on clear nights at Lost Horizon.

Gorgeous views
My young family (3 kids under 6) greatly enjoyed this beautiful cabin, amazing views from the deck, koi pond, fishing at the docks, and tons of wildlife. It was such a relaxing, secluded, and peaceful place!

Wonderful Time!
We really enjoyed staying at Lost Horizon. It was perfect for our time together as a family. The house was awesome and we loved it. The setting is the best. We really enjoyed going down to the dock and taking the canoe out several times. It was the perfect getaway for family time.

Autumn visit
We had a great 3 night visit in October. The cabin is lovely, especially the wonderful river views. We enjoyed a lot of time outside on the deck, hiked a bit of the New River Trail, played a round of golf in Redford and visited The Draper Mercantile. We went down to the river and tried out the kayaks too. It was relaxing and fun.

Bird Family Trip 2023
We love Lost Horizon! This was our 3rd time staying here and the cabin is just perfect. We used the fire pit to roast S’mores, and the charcoal grill for burgers & hot dogs! The kayak and canoe got a lot of use and we brought our fishing polls to fish off the dock!

Beautiful, relaxing place - wish we could stay longer
Beautiful cabin with great views. Well kept and owner thought of many things that made it easy to enjoy. Had trouble getting access to canoes at dock but owner responded quickly so even with our short stay, we could use canoes before we left. Will look forward to coming back.

Wonderful Weekend
This was our second time visiting Lost Horizon, and we absolutely loved our stay. The views are amazing! We kayaked, biked, relaxed by the water and on huge deck over looking the water. The house was decorated for autumn and had everything we needed for a great fall weekend. Deck table with gas firepit was awesome. Debbie was great! We appreciate her sharing such a nice cabin.

Chestnut Springs
Our family had a great time at Chestnut Springs! The view from the house was amazing. The water access was very nice, we enjoyed the kayaks. The location is very close to the New River Trail, we biked each day and returned to the dock for a picnic lunch. I appreciate the owner sharing such a wonderful home for others to enjoy. Look forward to returning!

33rd Anniversary Getaway
Lovely rustic home, in a secluded woods setting. Serene view overlooking Claytor Lake from the back deck, surrounded by bird songs from the treetops. All the comforts of home, including bath & bed linens, are provided. We had a wonderful, relaxing celebration of our wedding anniversary at Lost Horizon.

Great 4th of July
My family had a stay at the cabin for the 4th of July. The cabin was great. Stocked with everything you need. You do need to drive down to the dock, but it's super close (like 2 minutes). The dock area is fantastic and we spent many hours out there playing in the water. Cabin is beautiful. Fish pond outside was a huge hit with my 8 year old. Overall a fantastic place and we can't wait to come back.

The best of everything!
This cabin is the most perfect place I've ever stayed. The cabin was VERY clean and had everything you could want. The view is amazing! The thing I like most is you get the best of everything, view, relaxation, trails for riding or walking and water. This location has it all! Debbie was a pleasure to work with. We will be coming back over and over again.

Beautiful Views
The house is located on a steep hill, but once you get up to the top it is well worth it. The cabin is well maintained and beautifully landscaped. We rode our bikes on the New River trail, which is very close to the house. I would recommend driving to the trail since the bike ride home up the mountain is difficult on a bike. It is a very peaceful and relaxing place to visit.

Beautiful property & Location
This view from the cabin very pretty. The cabin is new and very nice. We had a good time just hanging out with our nephew and his friends from Virginia Beach. The only thing to keep this cabin from an excellent rating, we thought, was no restroom in the loft bedroom, no tv in the main floor living room and the only shower was down on the bottom floor. Overall though, we had a very nice time.

Absolutely 10/10
Debbie was unbelievably helpful with helping me plan our weekend getaway. She provided TONS of things to do around the area and recommended several boat charter companies. The house was AMAZING- views were spectacular and the dock/kayaks were awesome! There's a lot to do- she even had WIFI available (i had to send some work emails but was able to do so from the porch!) 10/10 would go here again and maybe even stay longer!

Amazing mountain getaway cabin!
Cabin is spacious, well furnished, and beautiful! We arrived and found the cabin to be clean and ready for us. The pictures here really do not adequately show how beautiful and stunning the scenery is around the cabin. During our stay, we had no problems at all. The area is quiet and peaceful. If you want an escape in a mountain setting, this is it. I would definitely recommend staying here. We were here in late winter/early spring. I would imagine summer or fall would be spectacular. The mountain roads are a fun drive, as is the driveway up to the cabin! Paul & Michelle Voss Edmond, Oklahoma

Very Nice - Check Out Time, Not So Much…
Totally enjoyed the property - beautiful house and views with great amenities. Only down side was the 10 AM check out time and everything you had to do to prepare for the cleaners. Was given some extra time but still stressful. Couldn’t really enjoy the last night fully. A 12:00 PM Check out time seems much more reasonable considering the price of the rental. Like I said a lot of prep work before the cleaners get there - they surely could get the place ready in 3 hours for next guests to check in at 4:00, unless perhaps it’s a one person cleaning crew and even then…

Scheduled power outage
As we arrived at the property around 6 pm to begin our stay, the host notified us that there would be a “possible power outage”all day Saturday. In fact, power was out all day Saturday. He home is on a well, So no showers, no lights, no toilets, no cofee etc. I checked the power company website and it indicated that the power outage was a scheduled and definite occurrence. The owner had advanced notice of this but waited till I arrived before telling us. We were only staying for the weekend. There was no offer of a credit for the day. Only an offer to extend my stay for a day. Unhelpful as we needed to return to work the next business day. The owner repeatedly stated it was beyond her control and spoke very defensively. I have concluded that she was being disingenuous with us and made a decision to tell us about the outage after we arrived and were committed to staying there. She had advance notice from the power company. If she missed the notification, she could have made it right by offering us a credit. When she did notify us it was characterized only as a “possible outage”. This was very different from the description on the power company website. Disingenuous of the owner at best.

Mountain Getaway
We enjoyed our weekend at the cabin so much. Our son is a student at Virginia Tech and we were able to visit with him and enjoy the football game. It’s about 45 minutes to campus. We also hiked Dragon’s Tooth which is a great (yet strenuous) hike, about an hour away. We traveled with another couple and the cabin was perfect for the four of us. The cabin was clean, well stocked and very comfortable. The host’s attention to detail was very appreciated. We hope to stay here again in the future.

A week of relaxation and rejuvenation!
What an incredible week of rest and re-energizing spent at this cabin! Although our game plan was to spend the week on our bikes exploring the New River and Creeper Trails, we felt almost hesitant to leave our "new home"! The cabin feels very much like "your home", it is very well decorated, and super inviting! Whether you are preparing dinner in the abundant kitchen, or sipping coffee on one of many decks, or enjoying a campfire out back as the sunsets.. you will feel like you are "home"!! We absolutely loved our week here, and can't wait to come back and bring our friends to share the experience! Even a rain day spent in the big rocking chairs on the side deck feels like a highlight!!! Thank you Debbie for sharing your home with us!!!
