Spectacular mountain views at 4000 ft from a secluded log cabin

Spectacular views! Escape summer's heat in this rustic log cabin and enjoy its modern amenities and dramatic vistas over a broad valley and three Mt ranges.
Surrounded by pine forests and fields, you will most likely see deer, cows and wild turkeys and hear owls. Bring your hiking shoes, s’more makings and some good books to enjoy in this tranquil, beautiful setting.

Prepare delicious meals in the fully equipped kitchen. The dining room provides a perfect setting for meals or enjoy dinner under the stars.

After a day of endless outdoor exploration, unwind in the cozy living room with a wood-burning fireplace. Enjoy board games, watch your favorite movies, or simply soak up the tranquility of the cabin's rustic charm. The log cabin inside features a 2-story vaulted ceiling, dramatic fireplace and rough-hewn plank walls and ceiling in the living room. Local vintage antiques decorate the living room walls. Outside the whole family can enjoy large rocks for climbing, a tire swing and an amazing firepit with logs for seating.

Temperatures at the cabin's 4,000 feet elevation are typically about 8 degrees cooler than in lower-elevation Independence, VA, just 8 miles away. And Independence typically has 8-degree lower temperatures than lower-elevation Piedmont locations such as Charlotte, NC, some 124 miles to the south. Fires in the inside fireplace in July and August are many times desirable.

*Four-wheel drive recommended.

UPCOMING - OCTOBER 2024!! Big Ridge Retreat is pleased to offer a new add-on spa package. While we will still provide the same affordable nightly prices, we are happy to announce a package with a new infrared sauna, massage table, full-sized billiard/ping-pong table and a hot tub (great for star gazing). Further info available upon request.

Situated close to Jefferson National Forest with its hiking trails (9 miles), New River Campground for canoeing or tubing (12 miles), Grayson Highlands State Park (Mt. Rogers - 13 miles) and the VA Creeper Bike Trail (42 miles), the cabin provides a base for scenic trips to numerous festivals, antique shops and outdoor recreational opportunities. Alternatively, you can rock on the front porch and absorb the ever-changing and spectacular views.

Our guests are best at describing the experience:

• The cabin is special. It’s located in a beautiful area of Virginia that provides solitude in nature while also being 15 minutes from a nice grocery store. We appreciated the well-stocked kitchen with nice cookware and kitchen tools. We spent a day on the property enjoying the view, walking through the fields to find even more splendid views, and having a cozy fire in the comfortable cabin. The next two days we rode the Virginia Creeper trail and hiked with wild ponies in Grayson Highlands State Park. Anne was responsive to all inquiries and provided all the information we needed for our trip. - April 2022
• 100 percent awesomeness!!! We loved the cabin and property kitchen was well supplied. Being from Florida we had a beautiful fire burning almost all week. Great family time. We hope to return one day 😃 - April 2021
• Views are unreal as are the chipmunks, dear, cows, turkeys, hawks and many, many rabbits. The weather was amazing, no bugs or skeeter's. Who would think you would need a fire in July. - July 2020
• What a beautiful and peaceful property it was so relaxing and the children loved taking walks, swinging on the tire swing, running around in the yard, sitting on the big rock, making some wars at night and exploring the Woods thank you for sharing.
• What amazing views, the fresh mountain air and the picturesque cabin were the perfect escape for our family. Our kids’ favorite part was the tire swing and we all enjoyed fires in the fireplace and in the fire pit.

Even though the property was really equipped with everything need it, it has no A/C. Be aware of that. The owner asked me to just open the front and back doors to get some air, but that's not a practical solution when you have 1 year old baby and at bedtime is really a problem to not have fans in every room. We enjoyed our stay very much, that's the only issue we had. My recommendation for future renters, read well all the amenities before, because I only saw that after my booking. On another note, it has no TV either, but that was not a problem from us, that we needed to completely disconnect from Miami life.

We had 9 family members in the cabin. Couldn’t have been more pleased. Beautiful views, sounds of nature, and a very cozy cabin. The deer practically walk right past you. We hope to rent the cabin many more times. Anne is a very hospitable hostess. You won’t be disappointed.

I cannot say enough good things about this cabin. Pros: 1. Incredible view of the valley and mountains. 2. The cabin is rustic and very comfortable. The indoor fire place is large and well stocked with wood. We used the outdoor fire pit which is complete with large log seats. 3. The kitchen is fine although we had all of our meals on the farm we were working. 4. The bedrooms are very comfortable and complete with cool bunk beds for kids or extra folks. 5. There are several places (front porch, veranda, back porch, and outdoor fire pit) to enjoy conversation or solo peace and quiet. 6. Although Wi-Fi is available, this place inspired me to turn off my phone for four days. 7. There are lots of games to play like, chess and backgammon. 8. If you want a retreat off the beaten path, this is your place. 9. I could go on forever. Cons: 1. If you don’t like driving on hilly winding roads, this will be a challenge. 2. If you want to eat at restaurants and explore the nearest city, be prepared to drive a good distance. Hopefully, if you choose this cabin, that’s not your goal. 3. If you don’t like beautiful forests and wildlife (lots of deer, birds and other great critters), you won’t like this retreat.

This cozy cabin was just what we needed to escape and unwind. We wandered the property, made fires indoors and outside at the fire pit, cooked a lot, ate a lot, and watched the clouds blow by. The chaise lounges were handy for star gazing, a must on a clear night. The supermarket in Independence is still under renovation but the Dollar General has basic staples. Thank you for a much needed respite!

This was perfect for a small family gathering with kids. We loved the property, fire pit, climbing rock and tire swing. It was a good location for us to go out on short hikes then come back and relax outside until bedtime. Thank you for sharing this beautiful spot.

Big Retreat is a wonderful and quiet place to go to! Breath taking view. My husband and I love the rustic cabin and all it’s charms. The kids loved the big yard to play around in and the tire swing! We also enjoyed our night time fires around the fire pit and fireplace. Great place to go and unwind. We would love to come back some day! Thank you Anne for your hospitality!

Anne was wonderful to work with, and answered all my (many) questions quickly and informatively. The posting was accurate, as far as there being much to do at "home" and in the surrounding area, and the well appointed kitchen. The many spaces for relaxing (porches, fire pit etc) were also very nice as advertised. We were pleased to have a puzzle table in the living room (we did 2!), and ate dinner outside at the picnic tables. The water was nice and hot with great pressure in the shower (& tasted good as well). And what a treat to need extra blankets in August. The internet and phone service was in and out, which did not bother us, I mention it for the information of others. Our son used the public library 15 minutes away for a virtual meeting, which worked great. The driveway (while long and steep) was navigated fine by our daughter's Corolla (with the weather having been dry). The remote location is what we were looking for! I could go on and on with more praise for the details, but you should visit yourself!

THE HOME: Beautiful and extremely comfortable. I can't say enough about how much the little extras helped us enjoy our stay - a stereo to listen to music, lots of pots, pans, and utensils (including a waffle maker, electric griddle, and nice pokers for campfire marshmallows), board games and cards, lamps and pillows everywhere, and decor and furniture that feels thoughtful and inviting. We also probably played with every outdoor toy - croquet, badminton, volleyball, etc. It's a great place to spend some time with the whole family. THE LOCATION: Very private with beautiful views. I think if you had a compact car, the gravel stretch of road leading up to it might be a little tough, but the minivan had no problems going up and down and it's by no means a scary endeavor. And it really is many degrees warmer when you leave the house and go downhill. We had the windows open the entire time and there literally was always a breeze. It was amazing for us to escape the typical summer heat and humidity that we have in Northern Kentucky and get what felt like fall temps in the evenings and morning up there. THE SITES: Part of what makes the location so great is that while it's totally secluded, it's close enough that you can still get out and see some things, even with little kids who maybe don't like sitting in the car. The farthest we went was a late afternoon trip to Grayson Highlands State Park about an hour away. It was really worth the drive. The scenery is just beautiful. We walked the Rhododendron Trail and got to see many wild ponies. It was a blast. I also recommend Peach Bottom Falls, which is only about 20 minutes from the house, where you can splash around in the falls on a hot day. We visited the Jefferson National Forest for a couple of hikes, including an overlook that offered beautiful views. Ciro's Pizza in Independence was delicious and I would recommend it. HELPFUL TO KNOW: While there were virtually no mosquitoes anywhere we went, we did find several ticks on the kids one day, so bring your spray. Like the owner states, the internet can be a little fickle. It was enough to look up directions and check email, which was perfect for us, but that's about all I would count on using it for. I was extremely glad to have it at all. While the grocery store is under construction in Independence, you'll have to drive a good bit for groceries, though the pantry was already well stocked with a few essentials. Much appreciated!

Our entire family (children and grandchildren- 8 in total) stayed here for a week. When it was time to go, all the grands were begging to come back next year (even the 17 year old!) The cabin had everything to keep everyone entertained. We had a puzzle marathons and games with the family every night. During the day, everyone lived outside. The weather was beautiful - cool and no bugs! We highly recommend for anyone that wants to spend quality time with family or to just get away.

This cabin was the perfect answer to a much needed getaway. The driveway itself, is something to brag about. The view is amazing, the weather was perfect and the cabin had everything we needed. We loved taking advantage of Galax, Independence, and Grayson Highlands State Park! It was a wonderful experience, and we will definitely be back!
