1. Renovated 130-year-old cabin overlooking Big Schloss Peak (from USD 206)

Enjoy a tranquil getaway with your furry friends at this three-story house surrounded by the George Washington & Jefferson National Forest. The charming cabin welcomes dogs with you.

Kickstart your day by sipping coffee on the porch as you watch the sunrise over the mountains. Hikers can explore Wolf Gap Recreation Area or the trailhead on Halfmoon Mountain, five minutes from the cabin. Not so much a fan of hiking? You can still have a great time and enjoy a dip at Trout Pond Recreation Area or fish trout at Warden Lake before you grab a beer and a burger at Woodstock Brewhouse.

When you don’t feel like venturing out, barbecue your favorite food on the grill resting on the wrap-around deck while watching deer graze. You can also enjoy your meal alfresco while soaking in the sweeping views of the valley and sit around a bonfire in the evening.
