Couple’s Romantic Mountain River Cabin w/Rustic Q Bed that’s Knotty & Nice. | Cabin in Dugspur

We invite you to enjoy THE KNOTTY CABIN…..a unique “get-away-from-it-all” experience for couple’s, singles or bonding friends/family. Enjoy the restful sites and rippling sounds of the cascading trout stream only a stone’s throw from the spacious deck, great for relaxing and BBQing. The cabin is about 30 minutes from the popular Floyd area and less than 14 miles from Meadows of Dan, Mabry Mill, Chateau Morisette Winery, and the Blue Ridge Parkway. We aim to please at this Carroll County Virginia get-away. Come and enjoy the Appalachian Mountains.
The “Knotty Cabin” is situated on a knoll overlooking the river at the end of a county road cud-le-sac with huge, beautiful landscape boulders randomly nestled in the yard along with a fire pit for burning natural wood fires on chilling evenings.
This 1 bedroom/1 bath is perfect for a romantic getaway, anniversaries, or just spending days participating in outdoor activities or visiting the numerous local sites and attractions.
Part of the Knotty Cabin’s uniqueness includes its custom rustic furniture made from aspen trees harvested from the Rocky Mountains and finished by a skilled carpenter. The furniture is all natural with knots, gnarls, twists, burls, beetle runs & even elk rubbings. The comfortable rustic Queen bed is officially proclaimed “The Knotty Bed”.
This property is positioned as a “get-away” so no wi-fi, cable nor satellite tv – not even local tv channels (but lots of DVD’s for enjoying movies). Fear not, we have a cell booster hooked-up at the cabin that will allow “most” cell phone users to easily make phone calls and reach the internet for exchanging emails, checking stocks, game scores, making on-line purchases, checking the news, etc. The cell service won't handle streaming or doing lots of internet work where fast connections are needed.
From your cabin enjoy walking/hiking along the river or county roads. A perfect area to kick off your shoes and wade the stream and even try your luck at trout fishing. In the evenings, enjoy the deck or fire pit. In addition to picnicking on the deck we offer a riverside picnic table and a stairway to reach the stream and our artesian well. The table, stairway and well are located about 200 yards across the concrete bridge - you can't miss them. In adverse weather, enjoy great DVD’s, books and/or board games, curled up in the knotty bed or sitting in front of our gas log fireplace.
Coffee lovers and connoisseurs, you’re going to love the Knotty Cabin. We not only offer a Keurig with pods (bring your favorite though), but also provide a top-of-the-line OXO stainless steel coffee brewer along with fresh beans and a grinder. We even cater to those who will “never change” with Folger’s Instant coffee crystals as well! So, we have you covered! Even non coffee drinkers…we’ve got some Keurig coca and/or tea for you!
Notice we emphasized the river in our headline. After doing our due diligence in research we learned waterfront properties (rivers, lakes, ponds, oceans, etc.) are what many renters are looking for. Be assured you will see and hear the river immediately – it sits bold and beautiful in view of the deck. So, you will certainly not experience the “Where’s the Beef (water)” syndrome that you and others may have encountered with various other rental sites.
We do hope you will visit and stay with us. As for rates, there are some in the county that are cheaper and a number more expensive. But in terms of “value” or “bang for your buck” (the river view, the rustic furniture and our amenities) it doesn’t get any better than the Knotty Cabin with the Knotty Bed.
