Nice, Cozy Cabin in the Woods

My son and his family recently moved to Woolwine, and we feel so grateful to have found the perfect cabin for when we visit. The Cabin has that rustic and serene feel about it, and the pond with the stream is an added plus. A nice, quiet property that had everything we needed!

Family reunion in the mountains.

Quaint cabin full accommodations, cozy, yet spacious. Beautiful covered deck in back. It rained but didn’t ruin our family cookout, gas grill under covered deck. Lush trees all around. It was awesome.

Wish we could have stayed longer!

We spent four days and three nights. We were working our way down the Shenandoah and Blue Ridge and spent a few days in the area. I've been in the area a lot in years past but not recently. Was great to be in the area again. The house was a great jumping off location for our days activities. The house was as listed and the owner is very kind and responsive if you want/need to touch base. There were only two of us so the house was way more than we needed, but we enjoyed the space and our time here, and only wish we'd taken longer to enjoy the area.

Beautiful cabin, even nicer than in the pics. We loved spending time down by the creek/pond. Fairy Stone Park was a 20 min. drive, and we enjoyed getting breakfast at Crossroad Cafe. I would love to come back in the winter.

Nice get away for husbands 65th birthday

Very relaxing spot and very quiet. When you sat on the back porch you would think you were in the very middle of the 27 acres. We saw a lot of wildlife; baby bobcat, foxes, rabbits and deer. Everything worked well. Husband was excited to fish and caught a couple of bass and brim.

Cozy Cabin

This property was nice. It was not cleaned before we got there, though. There was dog hair everywhere and just clumps of it in the middle of the floor. No trash bags in the entire house. The shower upstairs does not work. The property itself was nice and the property manager was great. This property is in the middle of nowhere, but that's to be expected. Overall it was a fun trip. I would stay there again if I was in the area. Housekeeping needs some work.

Perfect place to stay for fairy Stones

The cabin was clean, cozy and comfortable. Decorated beautifully . Only about ten miles away from Fairy Stone State Park. We walked down to the large pond and the stream below the cabin. You can see both sunrise and sunset from the cabin. The host, Shannon was very helpful and delightful to talk with.

Relaxing and cozy

Thank you for a great vacation! The log cabin and the property were amazing. It was so relaxing and the cabin was very clean. We loved sitting on the front and back porches. The neighbors were so friendly. The Mountain View’s were incredible. This was a perfect place to relax and unwind. We hope to come back in the spring. I highly recommend this place!!

Very cozy cabin

All but 2 of the group came down with Covid and didn’t make trip, but the 2 of us had great time. Very relaxing sitting on porch. 1/2 hour to Floyd which we loved. Never caught fish in pond but had fun trying. Place was not easy to find at night but we eventually did. It is very remote.

Quiet cabin just off the beaten path

The cabin is as described. Shannon was very easy to work with and responsive. The beds were pretty comfortable. There is room in the upstairs bedroom to add an air mattress for more people. This is as much "in the sticks" as any city person would want. Roads are crazy curvy but paved. The pond and creek "down the hill" are more like down the mountain. What a hike back up! The back yard is a small flat area that you wouldn't want to miss your ball if playing volleyball or pickle ball as it will roll down the mountain. Beautiful countryside. And it's Virginia weather in the summer, so super hot and humid which was to be expected. Good A/C. Wood Brothers Museum worth the trip if you are a race fan. The Gordon Trent golf course was severely lacking!

Short Stay at Smith River

Older house - but very nice. Lovely breeze while sitting on the front porch swing. Main floor back deck (covered and uncovered) was great. Outside ceiling fan would make it perfect. States 3 bathrooms - but the basement bathroom was a little creepy for the grandkids. We managed well with the other 2 bathrooms. Bring your own toilet paper and trash bags (only half a roll in 2 of the bathrooms) (only 1 additional trash bag found in the island). Lovely quiet neighborhood. Read some complaints about the main floor bed - we thought it was fine. The Howery Family

Peace and quiet

We didn't want to leave. The cabin is beautiful, the location was beautiful, quiet ,all you can hear are the birds singing. No traffic. All you can see is trees from each window. Kitchen has everything you need to make meals. There are three beds to choose from, you will find one to meet your comfort. The gas grill was ready to cook homemade pizza and steak kabobs. Tv was there, but didn't need it, we were there to enjoy nature. We did encounter bear down at the pond between it and the creek. He scared us as much as we scared them. Thank you for sharing your beautful home. We will definitely be back!
