"The views were spectacular . Everything about the cabin was top level. We’ve been to many cabins in the area and this was by far our favorite! It’s location is close to hiking and the quaint shops of Blue Ridge! "
-The Heidecker family (guests)
"5 star stay all around. The views were perfect, watching the actual blue hues of the ridges in endless landscape. Beautiful sunsets from every room. The owner takes care of everything"
-Eamon, guest
Enjoy your morning coffee and evening wine right outside the primary suite, with a private deck overlooking the incredible mountain views. On the main level you will find a large covered porch with enough seating for everyone! You will never have to take your eyes off the gorgeous Blue Ridge Mountains when staying at Owl's Eye Lodge
"If you are looking for the perfect cabin, look no further! This place is as good as you will ever find! It was very clean. All of the beds were super comfortable! Not a bad room in the place! Very spacious!"
-Michelle (guest)
After dinner, head downstairs to the game room to enjoy a friendly game of pool or foosball. While downstairs you will find the covered hot tub located on the lower deck. There’s more seating for everyone, plus a covered swing. You can enjoy yourself from anywhere at Owl’s Eye Lodge.
"This place was perfect…I am an avid traveler for work and personal trips and never stay in the same one twice but I will absolutely bring my family here again. The place was easy to access, communication with Andre was quick and clear and courteous."
-Emily (guest)
Owl's Eye Lodge is a beautiful, updated country getaway! It is larger and more spacious than most area properties and the sunsets are amazing! In the country, things are a bit different than in the big city (but the grocery store, Home Depot and Walmart are still only about 7 minutes away):
THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE RENTING
1) The roads are hilly and our driveway is STEEP (as is typical of mountain homes in the area). However, the roads on the way to the cabin are well paved and maintained, including the driveway (unlike gravel/dirt like at most local places). Our driveway is grooved for extra traction and has not been a problem for guests. But it is steep. Ideally arrive before dark, as the mountain roads to the cabin are not well lit. Besides, during the day you will be better able to enjoy the lovely views on the ride in. You can check-in as late as you would like via keypad entry.
2) Phone service is generally bad, but this is easily rectified by calling your phone service provider ahead of time to access their free internet phone calling capability. This is the same type of calling as from your phone with the same phone number, it is just done over the internet instead of from a cell tower. This is worth setting up no matter where you are in the USA.
3) The countryside has bugs and critters. We have an exterminator who provides excellent scheduled service. However, bugs and critters will still occasionally enter the property from time to time, and the guest can either trap and free the insect or kill it. We will not judge, but it is part of country life in ANY cabin here
4) The Sugar Creek Racetrack is located about 1.5 miles away and holds races mostly from May through October. The races typically start around 5 and can go all the way to 1 am. Typically these take place twice per month on Saturdays, but they can take place any day. It may be loud. You might want to contact the track to know when the races are before you book! You may even want to check out a race while you are here :)
5) This cabin is ideal for family fun or a weekend getaway for couples. It is doubtful you will find a better cabin for either of these purposes. We do hope you send us your group photos with our living room bear or our owl on the outdoor fireplace!
