Step onto the wrap around deck and be greeted by the crisp, cool mountain air and uninterrupted vistas.

This is the perfect spot for both family and pets, with a spacious deckand covered porch for everyone to enjoy. Soak up the serenity as you curl up with a good book and your favorite drink, or take your furry companion for a hike on one of the nearby trails.

And when you`ve had your fill of adventure, return to your cozy cabin and savor your meals al fresco on the balcony, surrounded by breathtaking views that stretch for miles. From our deck, you can even catch a glimpse of Pilot Mountain in North Carolina, just one of the many picturesque sights waiting to be discovered in the Meadows of Dan, Virginia area. Don`t miss your chance to disconnect from the chaos of everyday life and reconnect with nature at the Pontificator`s Perch.

    Great place with amazing views! Loved how close it was to great hikes and great wineries. Also love how the owners were dog people themselves! Obi (dog) had a great time!

    The view is amazing! Comfortable house, nice balcony and enjoyed a much needed break from the heat at the higher altitude.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Pontificator's Perch! The location was very close to the Blue Ridge Parkway and for exploring the area. The house was nicely appointed, comfortable and had lots of room, and the view from the deck was amazing.

    Beautiful views! A perfect spot! The perch up top was our favorite. Property manager very responsive. Follow directions given not the GPS!

    Just needed a place to rest for a night but woke to the most beautiful long distance view. We stayed up top in the trees and it felt like we were in a tree fort! This would be great for families. We brought our big dog and he enjoyed the fact that he could run around on the plentiful decks (with gates) without us worrying about him.

    Great stay overall. The property was clean, plenty of nature trails to hike, close to the blue ridge parkway and Chateau Morrissett Winery. We would stay there again.
