Nestled on a picturesque hill in Carroll County, Virginia, just 1.5 miles from the stunning Blue Ridge Parkway, lies Fernwood Cabin. It's conveniently located a short 15-minute drive from both Hillsville and Galax, offering you the best of mountain charm and accessibility. The cabin is surrounded by the serene Crooked Creek Area and is about 10 miles from the scenic New River Trail, perfect for walking or biking adventures.

Fernwood Cabin boasts a brand new log structure, beautifully furnished with hardwood floors and adorned with exquisite oriental rugs in the living room and modern, fully stocked kitchen areas. As you enter, you'll find a cozy sofa and upholstered chair next to a stylish stacked stone electric fireplace that comes with a remote for your convenience. The kitchen features an antique reproduction table accompanied by four chairs, complemented by charming pine cabinets. A walnut three-drawer chest adds a touch of elegance to the space. The first-floor bedroom features a queen-size poster bed and a lovely ball-footed chest, all resting on a plush area rug. A full bathroom is conveniently located on this level, along with a flat-screen TV above the rock fireplace mantle, complete with a DVD player and a radio/CD player. Plus, you’ll have access to WiFi for your browsing needs.

Step out through the back door onto a charming covered deck that offers stunning mountain views. Enjoy the fresh air while rocking on the porch or savor your meals at the porch table. A stone pathway leads you to the inviting front porch, which overlooks the entrance road and a wooded area across the way. There are four spacious rocking chairs available on both porches for your relaxation.

The cabin features a paved road leading to the house, along with a gravel driveway that runs alongside. With a comfortable heat pump, you’ll feel right at home whether it’s summer or winter.

Upstairs, the loft area is surrounded by beautiful railing, providing a cozy ambiance. The second bedroom, which opens up to the main living space, includes a stylish maple bedroom suite, a desk, and a chest of drawers. This level also accommodates a convenient half bath. In the main loft area, there’s a cozy love seat and chair placed on another stunning oriental rug.

This idyllic home is just minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Crooked Creek Fee Fishing Wildlife Area, which offers six miles of stocked trout streams and 1,600 acres of pristine mountain land for hunting deer, turkey, rabbits, squirrels, and grouse. The nearby New River Trail is renowned as one of the top ten mountain bike trails in the United States, inviting you to hike, bike, or horseback ride along its scenic paths. A small fire pit sits to the side of the cabin with benches to sit on while looking at the stars.

You’ll also be close to a variety of mountain cultural events, making Fernwood Cabin an ideal choice for your visit to the Blue Ridge Mountains. Just a short drive away, you'll find the Blue Ridge Mountain Music Center (located 5 miles down the Parkway), the famous Hillsville Labor Day Flea Market, and the renowned Galax Fiddler’s Convention, as well as the charming town of Mt. Airy, the birthplace of Andy Griffith.

    My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful three night at this property. The proximity to the Blue Ridge Mountains simply can’t be beat. The cabin itself was very nicely maintained, and all areas were comfortable. The sheets on the bed were incredibly soft and comfortable, which was very much appreciated. The check-in process was simple and Judy was an amazing Hostess. We are likely to return to this location at another time. Perfect stay!

    Jean,We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your property. The cabin was clean, well-equipped, and met our expectations. We especially enjoyed seeing the deer that visited in the early morning and again at dusk. We will definitely recommend your place to our family and friends!

    We enjoyed our weekend at the cabin. We spent time biking on the New River Trail and this place was convenient to the Galax end of the trail. The cabin is quaint and was all we needed. The area is beautiful with scenic views on the way, but no views from the cabin other than views of the surrounding woods. It was charming and perfect for our weekend needs. The interior of the cabin was well kept and offered some perks like coffee and filters. There is no Keurig. The outside area was mowed but could use a little attention around the walkways and front flower beds. We did book very last minute and the hosts were super responsive and communicative as this may have interfered with an appointment they had and they were trying hard to accommodate us. We did see some deer and rabbits in the yard and it was very peaceful sitting out on the porch and listening to the birds. It was a nice place and I would recommend.

    The house was warm, cozy and clean. A quiet beautiful street made for the perfect get away. We brought food and cooked and barely needed to leave the property. It was the perfect place to relax and cool off in the Summer.
