Quiet relaxation in comfort is always the norm at Carol's cabin. Coffee on the front porch swing or the back raised deck begin each day in solitude and peace while viewing the beautiful natural area. 8 sleep comfortably in two bedrooms and a loft, and 2 more on large couches when needed. Some guests have stayed in the cabin for their entire visit, choosing to stay in their jammies while enjoying the WiFi, fireplace, coffee, and wine amongst friends. :-)
For those who want to get out, there is much to enjoy, all while still relaxing on your cabin vacation. Walking and hiking opportunities in the area are abundant and beautiful. Fairystone Lake, with a beach and playground, is very close and Philpott Lake is a 15 minute drive. The view of Philpott Lake from the parking area is amazing, and the marina is modern, clean, and picturesque. Goose Point on Philpott Lake is also a must see.
Several very quaint wineries are less than a half hour away; our favorite is Chateau Morissette. Olde Mill golf resort is our go-to course from the cabin; it is a wonderful mountain course, both beautiful and challenging. Several restaurants are within 15 minutes. The towns of Stuart and Floyd offer shopping, eating, and historical experiences. As part of the Crooked Road, Floyd is mostly known for its general store and the bluegrass bands that play everywhere, inside and out, on the weekends. We have driven to see that even when not staying at the cabin.
