We had such a a wonderful stay here and would absolutely stay here again. It was very convenient for hiking at Grayson Highlands. The house was clean and comfortable. We were especially impressed with how well stocked the kitchen was and how nice the water was, not sulfury at all.
the cabin was cozy and clean with everything needed for a long weekend stay. The game room had some fun games and was a good way to spend a rainy evening.
We had a great stay. This would be a wonderful property for a group or family to rent all the cabins at once. Loved how close to Grayson Highlands State Park we were!
There was no communication regarding check in instructions prior and no one is on site when we got there. I could never get anyone to answer the phone at check in time. We followed all the suggestions and the place was never warm. Woke up all night freezing. No heat in the bathroom at all. Towels were very small and rough. The blinds in the bathroom had missing pieces as well as blinds in other windows. Therefore we didnât feel at ease there. Itâs January and it is cold of course and there was a thin bedspread on the loft bed. No extra blankets. Sheets were very cheap with lint all over them. Listed as an 2 bedroom but I donât consider the loft being a bedroom. No door, no closet and no where to put your clothes away. Also very narrow spiral staircase. Itâs very hard to take things up and down. They says it sleeps 8. There is only 2 beds and a couch. They list a fire pit as an amenity but was full of snow no one got it ready for guest and there were no chairs to even sit in. Lastly the arcade was accessible but most of the games were not even powered up and there was absolutely no heat in there so who would want to be in there anyway. Very disappointing experience. It was not worth the extra fees. Would have been better off at a hotel.
We really enjoyed the beautiful tiny cabin and it's proximity to Grayson Highlands. The cabin was well equipped and had a great sunrise view. The short walk to the stream was nice, too.
The place has all that is needed except for:
a comfortable mattress in the main bedroom,
a can opener that works,
and unbroken sturdy firepit chairs.
We were very close to fun creeks and parks to explore, so we did.
And It was nice to rest in a cool place after a full day of fun in the summer heat.
The perfect little cabin for our mountain getaway! Very clean, comfortable and cozy. We will definitely be back! We enjoyed walks to the creek , the arcade and being able to use the kayaks was great !
Location, peaceful, relaxing, comfortable, all you could possiy need.
We chose Rumple's Retreat at Highland Hideaways for our 2 week stay so we could visit 8 different state parks in SW VA. Since we camped near Natural Bridge and Lynchburg on both ends of the trip, we brought way too much. Really, a suitcase and a grocery store visit enroute is all you need. Oops, and a rocker for the front porch time; there is a table and chairs though.
A couple of not such abig deal things about this beautiful cabin:
- be patient with the door lock responding to unlock
- morning in the summer comes around 5 to 6, due to the window coverings or not. The loft is really bright. We have a dog, so that was not much of a problem and on some mornings we wanted to be on the trail early.
- Alexa sometimes talks with her mouth full, so she is difficult to understand or hear.
- Water is delicious straight out of the tap.
We were out too late or in bed too early to get the opportunity to use the fire pit or grill.
This is a great location to section hike the AT. The State park is right down the road. The cabin was cozy and had all the kitchen needs for the meals that we cooked. Highly recommend staying here.
We used the cabin as our base for a hiking / bouldering experience with the multiple options within minutes all around. Great set up for the three of us. All the little things we needed in the kitchen and so many things to make the stay super enjoyable and comfortable. Plenty of space to lounge and stretch out after long days of hiking.
The cabin was very clean and well maintained. The description provided is accurate. It is located a short distance from Grayson State Park and I highly recommend taking the time to explore. The community arcade was a fun little way to keep busy while at the cabin. Overall it was a great experience! I would recommend this cabin to others and will be visiting again.
Got away for a few days. Cabin very nice and clean. Very small but fine for the 2 of us. Nowhere to put your clothes except a hanger next to the bed. There is a dresser but it was full of other things. Bed was very comfortable. Everything was provided that we needed. Arcade was nice but mostly everything had a cost. We enjoyed the free air hockeyđ . Had a hard time locating the âdrive in movie theaterâ but finally found the screen on the backside of the arcade. Might be a good idea to tell people exactly where it was located. Not sure we ever found the trout stream. We did find a nice little stream on the road to the right of the property but unsure if this was the place mentioned to fish. We went to the state park which was really lovely and also visited Abingdon and Wytheville. We saw a show at the Barter theater which was awesome. All in all a nice trip but unless you are an avid hiker, not much to do in this area.
Cabin was cozy and very cute! Loved the porch and creek! Perfect for the sunrise! I thought my kids would love the arcade but it turns out that we ALL did! Great memories made! We plan to return for another great adventure!
Really enjoyed our stay. My nephew and I went backpacking and my mom and sister stayed at the cabin. The last day my sister and nephew went home and I stayed one night in the cabin. Awesome place!
