Log Home Retreat On Picturesque Private Farm

Get away from it all at this log cabin home in beautiful West Augusta. Enjoy the private setting surrounded by a 900+ acre farm that backs up to the George Washington National Forest. Plenty of walking/hiking trails, multiple ponds for catch and release fishing, and various wildlife viewing opportunities.

Located a short drive from Historic Staunton or beautiful Highland County.

The custom built home features an open living room with large stone fireplace, kitchen, and dining area on the main floor as well as the master bedroom and bath. Upstairs is the second bedroom, bathroom and loft area overlooking the living room. The finished, walk-out basement features a bar, game table, foosball table, and sitting area with a sleeper sofa as well as a bathroom with washer and dryer. The loft area and finished basement provide areas for optional sleeping arrangements , i.e. air mattresses.

The house has a full wrap around deck including a screened porch with large picnic table. Relax and enjoy the beautiful views from the rocking chairs on the porch.

Charcoal grill on site (bring charcoal and/or lighter fluid). Linens provided. Please bring paper products, soaps, detergents and trash bags.

This is truly an unplug and unwind getaway - there is no cell service, no internet, and no cable. There is a hotspot at Mountain View General Store 2 miles away where you can access Wifi and make cell phone calls. There is a TV with DVD player as well as a house phone for your use. The setting and surroundings more than make up for the lack of digital entertainment.

We do not allow hunting on the property or access to the National Forest for the purpose of hunting. There are many nearby areas off the property to legally access the National Forest designated for general public.

Amazing Cabin
The cabin was clean and well maintained. The property was beautiful with plenty to do. We enjoyed family time around the little lake fishing and walking and using the little row boats available. The views were gorgeous! A peaceful and amazing place to stay!

A+++ Place to stay
We had an amazing time at the guest house. The property is amazing-very private, beautiful, and the owners provide plenty of activities to do. The kids enjoyed the fishing and the kayaks and the pigs that came by to say hello! We still definitely recommend to family and friends. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

No WiFi as Advertised !
Listing for property actually says under amenities: "Available in the house: WiFi" We contacted the owner while there and we were told there was no wifi at the property. We would not have stayed at this property had we known there was no wifi. As a matter of fact, we left a day early. FALSE ADVERTISEMENT!!!

My husband and I had the most relaxing vacation. The scenery was so beautiful and our cabin was warm and inviting. We have already made vacation plans to come back. We did not miss the internet one bit. It's good to disconnect from this crazy world we live in.

Fall in West Augusta VA is AMAZING
My family and I are from the DC area and wanted to spend a couple of days enjoying the Fall colors and mountains. This booking didn’t disappoint. The owners are amazing and the 900+ acres to enjoy were wonderful. The owners even delivered more firewood when we ran out after having a nice big fire the first night. They even stopped by to share some great info about where we could go see some great local sites. We sat by the fire in the family room and watched a movie. We made a bonfire outside and played corn hole(which they provided). They even have folding chairs for guests. We canoed in their biggest lake and skipped rocks. We enjoyed their bison and pigs. We took pictures every where we turned. The cabin awesome! It is a little dated but very clean and everything you need is provided. We made breakfast both mornings and dinner once without any issues. The beds were comfortable but the box spring squeaked a lot. You can hear when people are moving on them. There is absolutely no cell phone service or WiFi which was scary at first but very enjoyable as me and my family unplugged for a couple days and actually enjoyed each other. We would go back to this wonderful place and I’m sure my three daughters ages 16,14 and 8 won’t forget this memorable trip. We are thinking of a spring time trip here!!

Great family weekend!
Our family stayed at this cabin for the weekend. It’s nestled on a beautiful piece of property with views of the mountains, a small lake and animals- farm and wild! The cabin was spacious. Our kids loved the basement with games. The bedrooms fit us well. Only complaint in the bedrooms were squeaky beds; otherwise, very clean! We ventured to nearby hikes and towns. Thank you and we hope to return soon!

Fantastic Stay!
WOW! What a great weekend! 65 or 70 on Friday made for a great hike & evening outdoor fire, then woke up to about 3" of snow on Sat. morning. Cabin is nicely appointed, beds comfy, great fireplace inside with wood stacked & waiting for you. We were greeted by "Ferdinand" the pot belly pig and were fortunate enough to meet Luke while walking around the property. What an inviting couple :-) Morning especially picturesque with sun rising over the mountain, steam coming off of the pond, and a Momma cow & her two babies running across the field. Truly a wonderful place and we will definitely be back. Thank you so much for everything!

2nd year cabin stay
We love Charlie’s guest house. It’s our 2nd year coming. Love the pigs. Was sad to see there wasn’t the big Christmas tree in the loft like last year and couldn’t figure out how to get basement warm. But the stay was amazing. The property is picturesque. The cabin is just so cute and comfortable. No gas grill like last year but we managed with the charcoal grill provided. Loved how there were apples for the pigs each day. No cell service is actually a great thing. The family was able to be present and just enjoy each other’s company. The walking trails on the property were great too. Plan on going again next year!! Definitely recommend it.
