About this bed and breakfast
Located only 30 minutes from two colleges, Virginia Military Institute, and Washington and Lee, as well as the Virginia Equestrian Center.
Enjoy fishing from the deck just out the front door or hiking in the Little North Mountain Wildlife Management Area consisting of 56,000 acres where wildlife abounds. There are convenient trail heads nearby for as much hiking as you desire.
At the Mountain Pond House we have recently acquired some additional trails for our guests who are hiking enthusiasts. The trails are through some of the most pristine forests of Virginia and consist of an additional 5 miles of hiking on the premises; bring your camera.
Conveniently located between Staunton and Lexington and about 45 minutes from the Omni Homestead Resort and the Sam Snead Golf Course.
The cabin has a master bedroom with a queen bed, a loft upstairs with one twin bed and one queen bed, moderately sized family seating area, kitchen with table that seats six and two stools at a kitchen bar, one full bath with shower and a half bathroom off the kitchen.
Covered parking as well as a covered seating area outside the front entrance. A fire pit is located outside for wood fires and grilling. There are approximately two miles of private walking trails for walking and enjoying wildlife. Motorized vehicles are not permitted on the trails, this is necessary to protect wildlife, the hay fields, and your safety. Please confine motorized vehicles to the pond house road.
The spring fed pond is stocked with large mouth bass, perch, and catfish. Bring your fishing gear. Fishing is catch and release only.
After numerous inquiries we added cable internet and TV on 3 August 2020 to make your stay a more pleasant experience. Rockbridge County increased the lodging tax by 3% beginning 1 August 2020 and our fees were increased by $5.00 per day to cover these increased costs.
Please bring your own provisions. The nearest grocery store is 30 minutes away and there is no fast food delivery here, we are too far out of the way. There is a Kroger, Food Lion, and Walmart in Lexington and it is recommended you stop there for any grocery needs prior to your arrival. The kitchen contains most utensils and cooking items to include a k-cup coffee maker but please bring your own coffee.

Our family had a great time staying at this cabin! It is stunning and clean! The pond right off the deck is perfect for the fishermen in the family while the walking trails and nearby farm animals were pure joy for our little one.

We loved this cabin and location! It was super calm and peaceful. The cabin decor and the pond made for a perfect country/woods atmosphere that we were looking for. The cabin was stocked well and so we didn’t need anything additional for our stay except food. The TV is a flat screen and a Roku was provided. We ate in Lexington and picked up groceries at the Lexington Walmart. We went to the Natural Bridge Caverns which was very cool. The owner’s were responsive as well. We enjoyed sitting outside overlooking the pond with our wine in the evenings. I highly recommend that you stay here wether you are looking for a romantic weekend or are a nature lover!

Our family truly enjoyed a relaxing vacation in the mountains of Virginia!
We were attending a horse show at the Virginia Equestrian Center. Normally we like to stay within 10-15 minutes of the venue, but because of graduation at VMI, we had to expand our search. This is when we found this gem of a property!
Tucked away in the mountains, our cell reception was a bit spotty but the GPS had no trouble guiding us to the location. Narrow, windy roads took us through small towns established in the 1700's and 1800's, which added to the charm of the area!
The property itself was modern construction, well built and had plenty of space for our family of 5. It was obvious it was well cared for - very clean and had everything we needed.
We played with the football and volleyball, explored the property's trails and even took out the small boat around the lake a couple times. We saw squirrels, chipmunks, birds, deer, possum, rabbits, raccoons, and of course, the horses that graze in the pasture.
We prepared breakfast every morning at the house and ate lunch and dinner in Lexington. The house had everything we needed, including fast and reliable wifi.
The owner was in contact with us before and during our stay to make sure we were enjoying ourselves and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay.
This is a wonderful place to stay off the grid for families that want to get away from life for a little while and enjoy quality family time and nature.

My family and I had a wonderful stay at this property. We were hoping for a relaxing get away and that's just what we got. We really enjoyed the the decor and set up of the cabin, our kids LOVED getting to stay up in the loft. The cabin has several trails you can do without leaving the property and the small pond was just perfect to be able to sit out on the deck and enjoy. Our first day before check in time we went to Rockbridge Vineyard and enjoyed some time there before getting to the cabin. I was a bit nervous about wifi reliability of wifi at the cabin but we had no problems. It was about a 30 min drive into Lexington and we drove into town for a carriage ride and learned about some of the history and had a fun walk around to some art stores and a nice meal. The outside grill/fire pit was fun and the kids (ok and me too!) roasted marshmallows as we watched the moon rise right over the pond. Great visit, I would definitely recommend!

Beautiful cabin and gorgeous setting. The decor is stunning, we truly felt like we were in a mountain lodge, with high ceilings, wooden furniture, and more. We also loved walking the trails on the grounds.
One issue we had is that we didn't have cell reception (not a problem) but we couldn't find any info on the wifi passcode when we got there. And we couldn't call or communicate in any way since we didn't have reception. After some searching we found a sheet of paper in a closet with the password but it was not clearly visible. So make sure you have all that before you go!

Far away from any traffic or noise very peaceful and beautiful spot. Plan on 30 to 45 min to any store or attraction. Pack all food for your stay.

If you want peace and quiet this is the place. Well maintained, kitchen has plenty of amenities, comfortable beds, and gorgeous views of the pond, especially at first light/ sunrise. Great place to relax as a family. There are plenty of board games in the house and the WiFi is plenty capable if you need to get online. Definitely bring all your groceries as it’s a long drive to get anywhere.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay. We had plans to explore the area but decided to stay and just explore the cabin and trails. We loved seeing the horses and the many creatures like rabbits, deer, and fox. The pond was fun. We didn't do any fishing, but it was fun seeing them jump. The cabin itself is comfortable and the internet allowed us to do a bit of work during the day. The trails behind the cabin were a lot of fun as well.

We had a wonderful stay and spent a lot of time sitting on the porch taking in the beauty (the perfect place for enjoying our morning coffee & early evening wine). Natural Bridge isn't too far away, so we ventured there for an afternoon.

Peaceful getaway
My family and I absolutely loved our stay. The property is so peaceful. The views are amazing! My husband and I were happy to just sit on the deck and listen to the birds and other animals and look out on the gorgeous property. The horses came over toward the house to graze every evening. Also, the house was well equipped. Had everything you would need. We also enjoyed a horseback ride through the mountains at a farm up the road. Made memories to last a lifetime. Will definitely be back!

A lovely getaway!
Our family had a wonderful time here. Everything was clean, and the cabin had everything you could need. Our kids had a blast boating and fishing in the pond. The owner asked if we would like a fire in the evening and also freshly mowed the hiking trails. It was a peaceful and wonderful experience. We hope to return again soon!

39 Anniversary
I would give this property a 5 except for the pond. I am an avid fisherman and was looking forward to testing out some new tackle. The pond grass and the chemicals used to get it under control made the fishing almost impossible. did hook one nice bass but could not get through the grass. oh well, that's fishing. other than that the place is everything it is advertised to be. The trips back and forth to Lexington with top down on the Jeep were great. we will be back.

Our family cannot be more pleased. We hope to return!

Spring Retreat
I traveled with my family from Delaware to Virginia for spring break. This place is better than it looks on any type of picture.The pond seemed to have a lot of bluegill but I’m not sure we went on the canoe and fish from it. They set up a fire for us at the top of the hill and it was a beautiful blazing fire. We roasted marshmellos,hotdogs,and anything else you can think of. There are trails in every direction of the cabin.
The owner is very proactive and replied to all my messages instantly. Great place to bring uoir family

Perfect Relaxing Getaway
This property is beautiful. My family had a great time. The pictures do not do the place justice. The home is very clean. My kids had a great time hiking around the area. The pond was a lot of fun to paddle around in the boat. Great views in every direction! We plan to visit the property again!

Eutopia?
The Mountain Pond House was the vacation we'd been waiting for! The house was the perfect size for us (2 adults and 2 children), filled with mountain decor to set the mood, and had an abundance of outdoor activities. Our family spends a lot of time outside, so we thought we would be disappointed when it rained a few days. The ease of getting in the canoe or pulling out the fishing pole during the short time between rain was priceless. We caught several fish too! The horses on the hillside beside the house were a cherry on top of the scenic view of the sunrise over the pond. The property is endless on the back through the woods, and the trails are wide and mowed making them easy to walk.
Saying the kitchen is "stocked" is an understatement; there was nothing I looked for and couldn't find. My list of enjoyments here is endless. Either it was flawless, or I was having such a good time that I didn't notice anything wrong - either way is a win for vacation!
Andy was very responsive and flexible. I asked if we were allowed to use the firepit on the hill, and he had built us a private fire there within a few hours. This was beyond a house rental - it was a few meals away from bed and breakfast.

The Perfect Get Away
The cabin was off the beaten path and a complete hidden gem. My family and I had such a great time at the cabin. It's definitely somewhere we'd go again.
