Peaceful spot nestled between the mountains

Would highly recommend. The cabin is cozy on the inside with a peaceful backyard with deck and a firepit with wood pile. Very much enjoyed the location and during the daytime we explored the nearby Blue Ridge Parkway. The Appalachian Trail is a quarter of a mile away with a car park for a day hike. Thanks!

Loved our stay here!

Our family really enjoyed our stay in the cabin. We were able to explore the surrounding area to include hiking Crabtree Falls, and spending three days at Wintergreen. The cabin was very comfortable for our family, and we also really enjoyed the cabin’s outdoor amenities. The two bedrooms had super comfortable beds with probably the best mattresses I’ve ever slept on!! The wood burning stove was such a neat touch that we enjoyed.

Gem in the Mountains, surrounded by water, lots of character in the cabin. Well stocked cabin of what is needed. No internet, which was great. Visited several Wineries and Distilleries. Most definitely will stay again. Great memories!!!!

Cute little getaway

We were only able to stay one night, but enjoyed the peace and comfort of the cabin. It had everything we needed and due to the cold we had a nice movie night together

About the host

Hosted by Gargano & Walker Families

Our two families are very close, both in proximity and in our relationships. Heather & April are both sisters and best friends. Having been born in the mountains of Pennsylvania (but grew up in Virginia Beach), they have an innate desire and love for the mountains and any creek, river or stream they can get into! Luckily (for them) their husbands, Marco and Ress are also on board with their love of the great outdoors. Native to central Virginia, Ress knows all the best places to eat, fish, hike and explore throughout the region. Marco, a native to Virginia Beach, is always looking for the next big catch in the rivers, streams and creeks. Together, with our children, we love to explore, experience and rejuvenate in Nelson County. We believe that families need to time to reconnect with one another and we can't think of a better place to do that than at Spicewood Cabin in Tyro, Virginia!

Why they chose this property

Two families, comprised of sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles and cousins have always wanted a family mountain "get-away" on a creek and surrounded by the mountains. So, after several years of searching for the right place, we finally found our cabin in the perfect location for our families to enjoy all that the Blue Ridge Mountains in Nelson County has to offer. Now, we want to share our property in order to give others the same sense of peace and rejuevenation we experience when we arrive at Spicewood Cabin. Our cabin gives you that feeling of being secluded and away from the stresses of life, however, it is close enough to local attractions and most importantly, the great outdoors. It is the best of both worlds and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
