Hiking the AT

This is a great location to section hike the AT. The State park is right down the road. The cabin was cozy and had all the kitchen needs for the meals that we cooked. Highly recommend staying here.

Amazing place for rest after hiking

We used the cabin as our base for a hiking / bouldering experience with the multiple options within minutes all around. Great set up for the three of us. All the little things we needed in the kitchen and so many things to make the stay super enjoyable and comfortable. Plenty of space to lounge and stretch out after long days of hiking.

Enjoyed the stay

The cabin was very clean and well maintained. The description provided is accurate. It is located a short distance from Grayson State Park and I highly recommend taking the time to explore. The community arcade was a fun little way to keep busy while at the cabin. Overall it was a great experience! I would recommend this cabin to others and will be visiting again.

Short stay

Got away for a few days. Cabin very nice and clean. Very small but fine for the 2 of us. Nowhere to put your clothes except a hanger next to the bed. There is a dresser but it was full of other things. Bed was very comfortable. Everything was provided that we needed. Arcade was nice but mostly everything had a cost. We enjoyed the free air hockey😊 . Had a hard time locating the “drive in movie theater” but finally found the screen on the backside of the arcade. Might be a good idea to tell people exactly where it was located. Not sure we ever found the trout stream. We did find a nice little stream on the road to the right of the property but unsure if this was the place mentioned to fish. We went to the state park which was really lovely and also visited Abingdon and Wytheville. We saw a show at the Barter theater which was awesome. All in all a nice trip but unless you are an avid hiker, not much to do in this area.

About the host

Hosted by Highland Hideaways

Located in the Blue Ridge Highlands of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Highland Hideaways is comfortably situated on the Virginia and North Carolina state line in Grayson County, VA. The Grayson Highlands are home to the highest peaks in Virginia. The Virginia Creeper Trail, New River, and Grayson Highlands State Park are all in close proximity to our property. Most of our cabins are within a short distance of each other. For larger groups, it is possible to rent multiple cabins together.

Highlands Hideaways has direct access to Grayson Highlands State park via the trailhead across the river, following Wilson creek you will see cascading waterfalls less than half a mile up the trail.

Why they chose this property

We bought this property as a vacation home to get away from busy day to day work life. I enjoy fishing the trout river next to the property, and hiking on and off the trails in the back of the property. The area is quaint, with a few local stores, Christmas tree/pumpkin farms sprinkled over the hilltops. The sound of the stream in front of the house can be heard from the porch.
