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 bistro sitting area, 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.

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!

Gorgeous place, lovely cabin

My husband and I were looking forward to connecting with nature and enjoying a short getaway with our 6mo puppy. We loved everything about this place: the location, the cabin itself and how well-equipped it was, the trails and parks nearby and the gorgeous and peaceful view. It was the perfect reset. I 100% recommend it to anyone who enjoys nature and a slower pace. Instructions left by owner were crystal clear and very effective, she was also super welcoming and responsive to messaging. We were sad to leave and hope to come back in the future.

Total R&R

Outstanding views from this sweet cabin. The cabin was tastefully decorated, clean and comfortable. The property was as advertised with everything we could have needed. The front porch was our favorite! We enjoyed coffee out there in the mornings, reading and just sitting in the afternoon & evening. We could see fireworks in the distance on 4th of July. The owner was quick to answer when I had a question. We enjoyed this long weekend get away so much! Would definitely rent this property again.

Peaceful and Secluded Getaway

The property was awesome and just as advertised, which is unusual these days. It accommodated the 4 individuals staying extremely comfortable. Entire property was Very clean and contained all the required essentials and then some. Great views from the balcony of the nearby mountains and countryside. Very relaxing to seat in the balcony with a cup of coffee or favorite beverage and decompress from the stress of life. The owner was extremely helpful and very easy to communicate with. Stayed in touch to make sure our needs were being met. Also, responded very quickly to my text messages. Detailed directions to the property were provided. Only request is that a few more rockers with comfortable cushions be provided for the balcony. Would highly recommend this property.

The stag with a Mountain View

We stayed for a family reunion in the area. The home was beautiful, well kept, and had everything we need to make a great stay. The host was fabulous, checked in to make sure we were able to get in the home okay and to see how the stay was going. I would highly suggest this property to anyone with 4wheel drive vehicles!

Beautiful place and great scenery in the mountains. If you love peace and quiet , this is the place for you. Get some groceries before your trip up. You’re about 20 minutes from grocery store. Remember, 12miles may take you 20 minutes, a little curvy but we didn’t have any problems with 2 wheel drive. Would definitely recommend the place

Great Getaway Property!

Nice, clean and as advertised! Owner was great in communications. Only reason for a 4 star vs a 5 the only deck/view is from the front and the deck is pretty small. A large deck with a hot-tub with those views would be a 5 star! Also, again, as advertised (& I knew in advance), alittle ways out from things to do (Mt Airey, etc). Minor issues with furnace, but got those sorted!

wonderful, relaxing stay, very convenient for a getaway day to Blue RIdge Music Center, and Dobson,

We would have liked for the view from the deck to have had a better panorama, if the top of the trees hadn't been so tall it would have been spectacular, as it was from upstairs bedroom. But even with the small view, our mornings and evenings on the deck, the four of us having coffee, wine, devotions, conversations, were such a blessing.

Great Family Property Vacation

Lovely place, excellent communication, clean as a whistle! The kitchen had everything we needed, safe environment. We have been coming to Fancy Gap/Cana for over 25 years and love it! The only difficulty we had was the height of all the beds. Our 90 year old tiny mother could not safely get up and down from any of the beds so - she had to sleep in a cot we brought along. She is very fit for her age but we were not willing to risk injury. There are only one set of stairs to the deck but they are easy to use. Thanks for the memories!

I can not say enough great things about our stay and this property. Everything was perfect. Views for miles! Unbelievably quiet! The property owner was very responsive and even gave the best direction with little details, like where to turn in the driveway. which I did not read thoroughly and we went blowing by! :) Beds were great, showers was great/hot with the tankless hot water heater. Beyond furnished with everything you could possibly need and more. We would 100% stay here again!

We really enjoyed our stay, which we used for a quiet weekend away to get writing work done in a relaxed environment. Beautiful views in the direction of Pilot Mountain from a quiet and very comfortable cabin. Everything we needed was there, and the host was very responsive when we needed to text about (very minor) issues that came up. We strongly recommend a visit.
