**Guest Accommodations**
Your private space is located on the second floor and includes two cozy bedrooms and a shared full bathroom. The first floor is occupied by friendly student interns and staff from Project Chimps, a local nonprofit sanctuary.
**Nature Lover’s Paradise**
Step outside to explore over 6 miles of hiking trails, sip your morning coffee beside a tranquil koi pond, and listen to the distant calls of chimpanzees. Guests enjoy complimentary access to the trails and ropes course during their stay.

Guests have shared access to the cabin’s main living room, kitchen, and porches. During the day, you’ll likely meet interns, volunteers, and staff who are happy to share stories about the sanctuary and the surrounding area—perfect for a morning chat over coffee.
**Local Attractions**
Take a short drive to downtown Blue Ridge to discover charming boutiques, art galleries, and a variety of dining options. Whether you're seeking adventure or tranquility, this cabin offers a truly immersive experience in nature and conservation.
