Secluded Mountain Cabin with Spectacular Views- Hiker's Dream

4WD/AWD REQUIRED!!
This newly constructed cabin is extremely secluded and has unbelievable views of the Shenandoah Valley from the top of Great North Mountain. The cabin features a sprawling deck with 2 porch swings, an outside dining space and a grill. The upstairs of the Cabin has 2 bedrooms with a bathroom off the master as well as an additional full bathroom. The kitchen is fully stocked for cooking with seating at the island as well has a dining room table. Finished basement features a desk, pull out couch for additional sleeping, full bathroom, and dart board. The game room has a pool table and air hockey table. This cabin is a hikers dream with private access to the Tuscarora Trail and near many amazing hiking spots, including Eagle Rock.
**Please Note: You MUST have an All-Wheel drive or 4-Wheel Drive vehicle regardless of weather conditions. The route to the cabin is very long and steep. We highly recommend that you get there before dark and if you will be arriving late we ask that you let us know so we can prepare accordingly.

INCLEMENT WEATHER. Safety is a huge priority for us and we will be monitoring for icy or snowy conditions. If this occurs, the driveway could potentially be too dangerous to travel. If the driveway is unsafe to travel, we will inform guests as soon as possible and discuss their options.

We will block the months of January until April on VRBO but feel free to reach out if you are interested in booking during these months. Because of weather, we will take it on a case by case basis based on road conditions and the weather forecast.

INSECTS. Since the cabin is in the woods, certain times of year there can be more insects than normal, primarily stink bugs and ladybugs.

We recently stayed at this incredible VRBO cabin, and our experience was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the breathtaking, panoramic views of the Shenandoah Valley from the top of Great North Mountain. The cabin is perfectly secluded, providing the ideal escape for our anniversary.The home itself is stunning—spacious, pristine, and thoughtfully designed. The sprawling deck quickly became our favorite spot to relax and take in the sunrise in the morning. A big surprise, because it was not in any of the property pictures, was the raised platform deck that extends off the main deck to give you an even more elevated viewpoint for a full 360 degrees. Everything inside was spotlessly clean and the master suite was supremely comfortable. Space abounds in the kitchen and there is plenty of space to store your food and other items. We echo the hosts recommendation to plan and bring your meals as the road to get to the cabin does not lend itself to a “quick trip to the store.” This was the exact kind of location that we were hoping for and cannot say enough good things about our stay. Looking forward to the next time that we can visit Almost Heaven!

Almost Heaven, it was

This property is outstanding in every respect. From the booking process to the photographs and information provided, our expectations were consistently exceeded. The recommendation to use a 4x4 vehicle proved wise, and our jeep handled the mountain drive with ease. Upon arrival, the property's stunning beauty and swing set left us in awe. The interior of the home was equally impressive, with its spacious, beautifully decorated rooms and welcoming atmosphere. The addition of three fans and a remarkable fireplace further enhanced our stay. The deck offered panoramic views that left us speechless. Moreover, the 360-degree lookout tower was an unexpected delight, providing unforgettable sunset experiences. The proximity of the Tuscarora Trail allowed us to enjoy hikes in both directions. Our time at Almost Heaven was nothing short of extraordinary. We were fortunate enough to extend our stay by an additional day and are grateful for the opportunity to have rented this property. Thank you for your hospitality.

Tranquil, Quite, Refreshing

This is a beautiful property with amazing views and privacy. The house is very well equipped and the host is very responsive. We saw lots of deer, turkey, grouse, and lots of other birds. The view of storms rolling through we great and even had full view of a double rainbow in the valley. I also hiked over to Eagle Rock and enjoyed the spectacular view from there. The kitchen had most everything needed for cooking, baking, and grilling. If you’re going to cook a lot I would suggest bringing your own knives. I’m pretty picky in this area, so if you like to cook you’ll know what I mean. If you decide to visit Almost Heaven you won’t regret it!

Secluded, quiet and very well designed.

The cabin is a recent build and everything is very well designed and laid out. It is very welcoming and cozy. Everything about the cabin feels intentional and thoughtful. For example the new upper deck lookout off the cabin deck obviously took a lot of work but adds a beautiful 360 degree view of the horizon and a view of the sunset. The views are stunning, pictures can't do them justice. The host was perfectly attentive to checking in with us and helping with some weather related questions but not at all intrusive during our stay. An enthusiastic 5 stars for sure! It is secluded but not far from town. In the week we were at the cabin we only saw 1 car drive past the cabin, it is THAT secluded. We loved it! It was by far the most quiet and peaceful stay we have ever had. This was the perfect place to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary.
