About this cabin rental
Minutes away from Wintergreen Resort, Devil’s Backbone Brewery, Hard Rock Cider Brewery and many more attractions, sits a quaint cabin away from it all. Three Ridges Cabin has the best views of the Blue Ridge Mountains you can find. This hand hewn log cabin was constructed in 2008 for the owners and completed with a wraparound porch constructed by the owners, providing ample space to enjoy the spectacular views while having your favorite beverage. The Three Ridges Cabin was named from having a spectacular view of the Three Ridges of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The sunsets have the most memorable mountain views, from the front porch and picture windows. You can have your coffee or glass of wine watching the sunset disappear behind the Blue Ridge creating a beautiful colorful canvas on clear evenings. The Three Ridges Cabin sits in the middle of eight open grassy acres, where an abundance of wildlife can be seen foraging and traveling from the surrounding mountains across the field and into the forested creek on the opposite side. Wildlife frequently seen in the hay fields surrounding the cabin in the early mornings and late afternoons include whitetail deer, eastern wild Turkey, bluebirds and hawks. If you happen to be there during the summer months, you may get to see local farmers cut and bale the hay, leaving picturesque view of large bales of hay against the backdrop of the mountains and sunset. If there has been a heavy rainfall, you can hear Hats Creek as it flows on the other side of Shields Gap Road. The road accessing the cabin is a state maintained gravel/paved dead end road, which is not too steep to require four wheel drive. The owner has ridden this road many times on a motorcycle, so cars are certainly safe! Three Ridges Cabin has a beautiful large loft bedroom, accessed by a sturdy solid pine hand hewn stairway. The loft includes an adjoining full-size bathroom with a shower, toilet and sink and long vanity including several large drawers and a sitting area. The most unique things about the upstairs loft is the rustic king size handmade bed made from cedar trees and handmade railing from cedar trees and mountain laurel.
The loft has plenty of room including an antique chest of drawers and closet. The loft is open except for the adjoining bathroom, which is private. This portion of the cabin does not have log walls but wood ceiling and hand hewn log beams, with a ceiling fan. The downstairs bedroom is a small private bedroom accessed by two entry ways. This bedroom also has an adjoining full size bathroom with a tub/shower, toilet, and sink. This bathroom has a pocket door entrance from the bedroom with a connecting hallway with the washer and dryer, a small open closet. The queen size bed is a handmade log pine bed with matching log side table and dresser. The living room is small but enough to seat four comfortably, including a fabulous bench window seat which allows for a perfect place to read a book or take an afternoon nap. The living room is open to the kitchen area with a gas log fireplace in between, which is available to use during the fall and winter months. The open kitchen has a picture window where a dining table and chairs can seat four people. The full kitchen is fully equipped with dishes, glassware, pots, pans, and plenty of utensils. The kitchen is also equipped with your choice coffee pot maker or single cup Keurig coffee maker. Filters will be provided for the coffee pot maker. The keurig coffee maker has a capsule to add your own ground coffee without the need of Kcups
The nearby attractions include Crabtree Falls, which is a must see! Appalachian Trail and many other hiking trails, apple orchards, wineries, breweries, ski resort (Wintergreen), antique stores, and a seasonal local farmers market in Nellysford (IGA grocery, restaurants, stores including hardware store, ABC store, realty, bank etc) is 10 minutes away, Lovingston 20 mins away (Food Lion grocery store), Lynchburg 40 minutes away and Charlottesville is 45 minutes away.
Absolutely No fires, hunting or target practices or loud parties allowed on the property. This cabin is located within a secluded, quiet residential single family neighborhood.

My boyfriend and I were driving home to New Jersey from Tennessee and decided to do a short stop in Virginia for a weekend. We wanted something relaxing and peaceful and we got exactly that! The cabin truly is one of a kind. The views are breathtaking, and the interior decorating is perfect for the cozy cabin feel! Doug and Roxanne were a pleasure to work with. If I recommend you do one thing in the area, take the 20 minute drive to Ravens Roost Overlook…UNBELIEVABLE VIEWS!!! Highly recommend this cabin if you love nature, tranquility, and beautiful scenery!

Can't say enough glowing things about our stay here. From the impeccable interior to the spectacular views, this hidden gem did not disappoint. Spent a good deal of time on the expansive porch, smelling the sweetness of the sun-baked wood and the freshness of the meadow stretched out ahead. A great place to unwind and enjoy those lucky enough to join you. Bravo!

This was exactly the unique and charming stay we were looking for! Great location to stay and visit Crabtree falls and the three ridges area. The cabin itself is on an idyllic, picturesque meadow and the hand hewn wood working displayed by the cabin construction is amazing. Thank you so much for a memorable stay!

The cabin is just perfect if you want to escape to the country for a quiet retreat. We watched deer and wild turkeys from the porch. There are beautiful views of the mountains. The cabin itself is very comfortable and homey. It could not have been better.

We come to the Nelson area every year for our anniversary and this was by far the best yet! The location of the cabin is perfect. It's off the main road but close enough to enjoy the amenities of the area. The property itself is breathtaking and the wildlife is a total show! Every morning at 7:30 we watched the deer cross the front field and then the cows would come to the bottom of the property right after. The early afternoon brought woodpeckers and cardinals! It was amazing! Our only suggestion would be to have binoculars. Many thanks to Doug!

This cabin was sparkling clean, well stocked, and decorated nicely. It was comfy and cozy with convenient gas fireplace and quilts to keep you warm. Absolutely loved the window seat for napping, reading and enjoying the amazing view of the mountains.

I can't say enough about this cabin and the Dormans. They were great to work with and their home is simply amazing. It's super cozy and VERY clean. We went to celebrate my 40th and it was also the weekend of hurricane Ian so the weather was less than ideal, but we still enjoyed the cabin and the area when we could. We lost power for a few hours, but the gas range was handy to have. They have everything you need to enjoy your stay. Check out Lovingston Winery as well as Sweet Bliss Bakery if you get the chance. My daughter left a necklace behind and was so upset about it. The Dormans were kind enough to return it to us. We can't wait to go back.

Best place we've stayed in the area. Unmatched privacy, quietness, and views resulted in the most relaxed and peaceful getaway imaginable. This will be my property of choice in the Wintergreen area from now on.

Stunning and perfect location
The location and setting of the property was absolutely stunning. It was perfectly positioned to take in a lot of the To Do's in the Shenandoah Valley! Would highly recommend this property.

relaxing home
very nice home with loads of antiques.
comfortable and supplied with all that anyone would need.
we were disappointed because we could not use the outside gas grill. It had a home/nest of mice in it and one was running around having a party therefore we just cooked everything inside. We did leave one day early because we had a family issue we needed to get home to address, but the stay was very relaxing and rejuvenating.

The Perfect Log Cabin Experience
My husband and myself celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary at this cabin. I always wanted to stay in a log cabin and this was the perfect experience. Our visit was during the summer so we really enjoyed sitting out on the porch on the rocking chairs at night looking at the "firefly" light show and the stars. The cabin was very comfortable and had everything you would need for cooking. A few suggestions for dinners if want to eat out -- We absolutely loved our wine tasting chef's dinner at the Farm at Veritas. Highly recommend that experience. We also loved our dinner at Basic Necessities which is right down the street. Of course, you can't go wrong with Devil Backbone Basecamp! If looking for a spa experience - don't miss the Wintergreen Spa. It was wonderful. Thanks Doug for sharing this little piece of heaven with us VRBO renters!

Best Stay Ever! Definitely a Place to Come Back to Again and Again!
We visited Three Ridges Cabin for a weekend getaway stay only minutes from Wintergreen resort! Words and photos cannot capture the beauty of the cabin and the property. It is something you really must see and experience for yourself! The craftsmanship of the hand hewn pieces is incredible. The cabin is the perfect size and checking in was easy! Everything was perfect, from the comfortable beds to the window reading nook! It is clear that a lot of love and care went into this place. The view of the mountains is breathtaking. There is no light or sound pollution, making for incredible stargazing and listening to the sounds of nature. We saw deer and deer tracks in the snow during our stay. This is truly a slice of peace and tranquillity! The hosts are very responsive and accommodating! Thank you, Doug and Roxanne! We will definitely be back!
