About this property
Blue Ridge Parkway Seclusion
Welcome to Rustic Ridge Retreat. A long time VRBO destination, this charming cozy cabin offers tremendous views of the Piedmont stretching across multiple counties of northern North Carolina, and the southwestern edge of Virginia. A very private and secluded setting with all the amenities of home. Enjoy the rocking chair front porch while taking in the view or watching for wildlife including deer, red-tailed hawks, wild turkey, groundhogs, and, in the summer evenings, fireflies.
Location is key…. just off the Blue Ridge Parkway (approx 1.3 miles), you can explore historic buildings/sites, stop and take in breathtaking views, and experience the beautiful seasons the parkway has to offer. In addition to the parkway, the area offers something for everyone to enjoy…music festivals (Mt Airy, Galax, Floyd), wineries, photography opportunities, golf courses, antiques galore, hiking, biking, and so much more.
The cabin includes two large bedrooms - one downstairs (primary with king bed) and one upstairs (queen and twin). The loft includes additional sleeping accommodations (queen/ twin), if needed. A fully equipped kitchen, living room, and two and one-half bath complete the cabin. Outside you’ll find a the front porch with fabulous views, back porch with grill, and a fire pit to enjoy on chilly nights.
The cabin is equipped with a whole house generator to ensure power stays on during stormy weather.
We welcome your four-legged family members (dogs only). The purchase of an insurance policy is required during booking. Insurance policies protect both the renter and the property owner for damage. Life happens, so these policies are just that…insurance for the unexpected and unintended.
Cancellations: Your reservation is fully refunded (minus the VRBO guest service fee) if you cancel at least 14 days prior to your arrival date, or 50% refundable if cancelled 7 days prior to your arrival date. No refunds are allowed for cancellations shorter than 7 days. Insurance policies purchased are fully refunded by the insurance company upon any cancellation prior to arrival of your reservation. VRBO’s ‘Guest service fee’ is not refundable.
We look forward to having you as our guest!
Note: We are continuously making updates and will post new photos as each update is completed.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Cindy Coleman

We visited Fancy Gap (Cana) on our 25th wedding anniversary and fell in love with the location. Five months later we became the owner of this cozy cabin and long time Vrbo destination. We love to travel, especially mountain settings, and you'll find some of our other favorite locations in photos on the walls of our cabin.
Why they chose this property
Our property won us over when we stepped out on the front patio. We fell in love with the view where we can sit for hours and watch the sunrises, sunsets, wildlife, and awesome storms and lightning shows.
What makes this property unique
You'll love the quiet secluded location knowing town is only minutes away. Plus, there are many restaurants, wineries, and golf courses nearby, in addition to the famous Mayberry artifacts located in Mt. Airy 20 minutes from the cabin. As a convenience, you'll find a listing of restaurants on our information wall...including gluten free options.
