About this property

Second Creek Farm near Spy Rock, Crabtree Falls and the Appalachian Trail

Classic Virginia white clapboard farmhouse - on land farmed by the same family since 1864, with views of Spy Rock and Sugar Tree Hollow.

This century farm is situated on what is considered one of the most beautiful landholdings in the area. Native trout streams abound on the property - the pond is spring-fed, with a dock and Adirondack chairs for sitting and relaxing. There are marked on-farm trails (with trail maps available) so that you can hike and never leave the farm if you don't want to.

The farm house with its exposed chestnut beams, creamy white walls and yellow pine floors is quite simply amazing. An old hickory wood stove dominates the open living room and promises warmth on chilly nights. The kitchen with its vaulted ceilings, skylight and old fashioned pantry is sweet. Vaulted ceilings and large bay windows in the open master bedroom give things an open air feeling with views of the mountains and streams. There is even a clawfoot tub in the master bathroom overlooking the pond. White rocking chairs line the front porch and remind us of how uncomplicated things used to be in the old days. A fire pit is available for guests as well.

Second Creek Farm
Entire family enjoyed the stay at Second Creek Farm. Cozy accommodations offering comfort, peacefulness, connection with nature, and welcoming owners. The property is lovely and access to hiking, crabtree falls, wintergreen, and other nearby locations is fantastic. If you are searching for a place to unwind this is it. The pond, livestock, firepit, wood burning fireplace, historical charm of the house / property, and well stocked home were all very much appreciated. We will be back.

Awesome weekend in the country
Just what my wife and I needed to cozy up in the beautiful rustic farmhouse over a cold weekend. Enjoyed feeding the horse and donkey, walks along the trail on property, and access to the AT and Spy Rock.

We came for snow but stayed for the memories
We love the Three Ridges/ Crabtree Falls area (Montebello) area of VA. It's probably our favorite place. We heard it was supposed to snow about 4-6 inches. So we headed up to Second Creek. Sadly we did not get any snow at all BUT we did get an entire lazy day to hang out in the house. We watched birds (SO many birds). We fed Shirley and Ben. Who are incredibly sweet. And even sweeter once we fed them apples. We explored the property. Once the weather cleared we did a little hiking down at Three Ridges and then continued being lazy. Drinking hot chocolate by the wood stove, playing board games, spending time with each other. It was really great. We are already talking about the next time we can make it up there.

Incredible!
I am not sure I can put into words how incredible this farm is. My aunt and I stayed for a few days it is like stepping back in time with modern comforts. Plenty of space inside and out the gardens are so sweet the greenhouse is beautiful would be so nice to sit in in the winter and drink tea. Loved Shirley and Ben gave them carrots every evening. Plenty of hikes on the property, fishing. Thank you so much Luther and Catherine you did an incredible job.

Wonderful experience
Such a peaceful, serene location. We all loved the house, the view, the quiet, the farm animals ... and the hammock was a favorite spot of mine. Very close to area hiking, too.

Absolute Slice of heaven, peace and beauty
Where do I start, the home was clean and beautifully decorated but kept the integrity wood details and farm charm. The farm WOW, we hiked the property, enjoyed the pond, the birds(delightfully entertaining and beautiful), the porch❤️❤️❤️ and loved talking to and giving treats to Ben and Shirley. Luther, owner, called to make sure everything was good and If we had any question or in need of anything. We enjoyed the binders full of history about the farm and town sights. Enjoyed watching the cows in the pasture and the stars at night felt so close you could touch them and we saw so many shooting stars 😊Thank you for sharing your home, we are already planning next year to the farm. Full 5 stars. ❤️

Wonderful visit to Second Creek
We had a wonderful time at Second Creek! This is a gorgeous farmhouse and beautiful property. We enjoyed hiking at Spy Rock and Crabtree Falls, stream “swimming”, horseback riding and more. Absolute best part of the visit: feeding Ben (horse) and Shirley (donkey)!!

Wonderful - as ever
We’ve been visiting second creek farm for years now - haven’t found anywhere quite like it for peace and tranquility. We were impressed this time around with the new touches to the interior - the house has been recently decorated and looks great. And of course the surrounding fields and forest are as lovely as ever. I could spend all day watching the hummingbirds and marvelling at the fireflies after dark. Beautiful. We’ll be back!
