Description from owner

Description

Built in 1775, Highlands Cabin is a true piece of American history. Modern amenities have been added to make your stay enjoyable. This cabin is situated on a knoll surrounded by trees, completely secluded and quiet with its own private road. A large and very comfortable Q bedroom with quality bedding, some country antiques, a goose down love-seat and Dish TV is on the 2nd floor. A Queen sleeper sofa is in the first floor living room in front of the wood burning fireplace. You will find a fully appointed kitchenette with pots/pans, dishes, silverware, table settings and basic condiments. Central heat and AC, gas grill, firewood supplied in season and much more. Enjoy the old fashioned sitting porch with its bent twig furniture while you watch and listen to the birds and wildlife. In the night time you may see the Milky Way and more stars than you have seen in a long time! A short walk up to the farm's highest hilltop will take you to the modern day labyrinth & a stunning 360 degree view of both the mountain ranges. Across the entry road is the 7 mile Chessie Trail with much walking along the Maury River & rock cliffs.Only 4 miles from historic downtown Lexington and universities, shopping, dining, and art galleries; close to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Virginia Horse Center and an Appalachian Trail head. A stay in Highlands Cabin is a real treat anytime of the year.
