About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Simple. Rustic. Luxury.

Located in beautiful Highland County, Virginia nestled in a grove of sugar maples between Back Creek and Little Mountain. Wake up to valley views which are likely to include deer grazing in the meadow, hummingbirds at the feeder, or a Bald eagle or great blue heron fishing along the creek. This 28 acre property includes a sunny meadow with beautiful mountain views, picnic table by the creek and a mountain to climb!

The tastefully decorated cabin includes a master bedroom with queen bed, a second bedroom with two twin beds, one bathroom with laundry, a fully equipped kitchen, open living/dining area with cozy wood stove, a covered porch and a deck with hot tub and outdoor dining area with a gas grill. At the Cabin on Back Creek, you can enjoy the stars which light up the night sky, bird-watching, walking, or just relaxing with a book in the hammock, on the porch, or on the deck. In the early spring, we make maple syrup at the sugar house located adjacent to the Cabin. You are invited to watch (and smell!) the process of turning 50 gallons of sugar water into a gallon of pure maple syrup - or you can help us if you would like!

There are a variety of hiking, hunting and fishing opportunities nearby, and access to both the George Washington and Monongahela National Forests is nearby.

The Cabin is located 16 miles from the quaint town of Monterey. Walking tours, galleries and shops, restaurants, beautiful mountain views, and friendly people make Highland County special all year round. Throughout the year, Monterey hosts numerous special events, the largest of which is the Highland County Maple Festival on the second and third weekends in March.

Located about 30 miles from Snowshoe Ski Resort, skiing, snowboard and tubing are available in season. Also nearby is the narrow-gauge railroad at Cass, West Virginia and the National Radio Observatory at Green Bank, WV.

Twenty miles south of the Cabin on Back Creek in neighboring Bath County are the towns of Warm Springs and Hot Springs, home to the historic Homestead resort and the Jefferson Pools mineral baths (currently being restored). These neighboring towns offer fine dining, golf, skiing/snowboarding, shopping, antiquing, chamber music at Garth Newel and a variety of art galleries.

The Cabin on Back Creek offers a peaceful retreat, surrounded by a variety of recreational opportunities. The Cabin is located on a working farm. Please be aware that we do offer tours (and sales) at our sugar house which is sited adjacent to the Cabin. There may be some activities there during your stay. In the fall, we make apple butter, and in the spring we make maple syrup. Bottling our syrup is a (sporadic) year-round activity

We had a wonderful time at this location and would recommend it to anyone looking for a secluded get away. You will not have cellphone service, but the wifi connection is strong.The hot tub was very clean with a great view. We enjoyed watching the sun set over the mountains and star gazing.The wood burning stove will heat the whole main area of the house, and adds wonderful ambiance. The host was gracious and attentive. We had the opportunity to purchase some artisan maple syrup from the Sugar Shack on the property and would highly recommend it.

Such a magical experience! Me and my husband stayed here to see the stars. The last night we were here, the sky cleared up and we experienced such a beautiful sky. We sat in the hot tub and just enjoyed the nature around us and gorgeous sky above us. Aside from that, the surrounding sites and adventures were fun too! We climbed the old Sounding Knob Fire Tower, ate at the Curly Maple, road the train at the Cass Scenic Railroad, and went to the Green Bank Observatory. It was such a great trip, 10/10 would recommend this listing and Monterey VA as a whole!

We greatly enjoyed the cabin and the area. It was perfect to disconnect. The pictures don’t do justice of the cabin and the area. We enjoyed star gazing, walking on the property mowed path, lunch at the Amish store and just enjoying the birds and wildlife.

It took us 11yrs to return, but we're so thankful we need. Exactly the recharge we needed. Quiet, peaceful & this cabin has everything you need. We bought our groceries on the way there & never left the cabin while we were there. Sleeping with the windows open at night is the best sleep you can get. The creek, the meadow with deer visiting every night & yes, we even got to see a bear this time. I wish this was closer to us because it wouldn't take us 11yrs to return if that was possible. :-)

A beautiful piece of heaven! I can't say enough about this place. The property was stunning, the cabin was perfect, and the owners were absolutely wonderful. A rolling creek, thunderstorms on the covered porch, bonfire under the stars, visits from wildlife, laughing at the battling hummingbirds, and hot tub soaks made for a weekend to remember. A hidden gem that we can't wait to get back to! Pat and Valerie have created a magical place and we are beyond blessed to have experienced it.

Maple Festival Girls Weekend

My mom, SIL, and I took a much needed three day weekend away to visit the Maple Festival and spend some girl time together. The Cabin at Back Creek is the perfect spot to do that. The proximity to the sites of the festival is perfect; we didn’t feel like we were in the car too long and the views along the drive are amazing. The Cabin is perfectly situated on the creek to enjoy the sounds of water and birds while relaxing on the porch or in the hot tub. Highly recommend a visit if you want to get away from the world for a bit.
