The cabin was fabulous - had everything we needed. We actually spent an evening playing in the arcade and had a blast listening to the jukebox and playing all the different games (not something we normally would do). We would stay here again without hesitation - but next time bring our fly rod!

Amazing place for rest after hiking

We used the cabin as our base for a hiking / bouldering experience with the multiple options within minutes all around. Great set up for the three of us. All the little things we needed in the kitchen and so many things to make the stay super enjoyable and comfortable. Plenty of space to lounge and stretch out after long days of hiking.

Enjoyed the stay

The cabin was very clean and well maintained. The description provided is accurate. It is located a short distance from Grayson State Park and I highly recommend taking the time to explore. The community arcade was a fun little way to keep busy while at the cabin. Overall it was a great experience! I would recommend this cabin to others and will be visiting again.

Deep into Virginia

The place has all that is needed except for: a comfortable mattress in the main bedroom, a can opener that works, and unbroken sturdy firepit chairs. We were very close to fun creeks and parks to explore, so we did. And It was nice to rest in a cool place after a full day of fun in the summer heat.

We WILL be back...

Location, peaceful, relaxing, comfortable, all you could possiy need. We chose Rumple's Retreat at Highland Hideaways for our 2 week stay so we could visit 8 different state parks in SW VA. Since we camped near Natural Bridge and Lynchburg on both ends of the trip, we brought way too much. Really, a suitcase and a grocery store visit enroute is all you need. Oops, and a rocker for the front porch time; there is a table and chairs though. A couple of not such abig deal things about this beautiful cabin: - be patient with the door lock responding to unlock - morning in the summer comes around 5 to 6, due to the window coverings or not. The loft is really bright. We have a dog, so that was not much of a problem and on some mornings we wanted to be on the trail early. - Alexa sometimes talks with her mouth full, so she is difficult to understand or hear. - Water is delicious straight out of the tap. We were out too late or in bed too early to get the opportunity to use the fire pit or grill.

Short stay

Got away for a few days. Cabin very nice and clean. Very small but fine for the 2 of us. Nowhere to put your clothes except a hanger next to the bed. There is a dresser but it was full of other things. Bed was very comfortable. Everything was provided that we needed. Arcade was nice but mostly everything had a cost. We enjoyed the free air hockey😊 . Had a hard time locating the “drive in movie theater” but finally found the screen on the backside of the arcade. Might be a good idea to tell people exactly where it was located. Not sure we ever found the trout stream. We did find a nice little stream on the road to the right of the property but unsure if this was the place mentioned to fish. We went to the state park which was really lovely and also visited Abingdon and Wytheville. We saw a show at the Barter theater which was awesome. All in all a nice trip but unless you are an avid hiker, not much to do in this area.
