About this property

Highlands Cabin c.1775, is a breath of fresh air from the busyness of our hectic day-to-day lives. This authentic log cabin is made of hand hewn logs of maple, oak and chestnut brought to this farm from W.VA., reassembled with a large 2nd fl bdrm, large 1st fl bathroom with an antique pedestal bathtub/shower, a kitchenette and a screened back porch. Modern amenities. Fireplace with split wood, private setting on farm, central HVAC. Highlands Cabin sits on a knoll off a private drive on 250 acres of farmland above the confluence of two rivers. Guests need to be comfortable with 'the dark of a country night' & the illusion of isolation. We are only 1/2 mile away. The road is a combo asphalt & dirt/gravel. We have no outdoor lighting or property lighting of any kind. The only lighting is inside your cabin and the two porches. Our guests must be comfortable with the dark. We do our best to keep “the country in the country”. This country setting is 4 miles from the center of downtown Lexington with its excellent restaurants, gift shops, historical interests. Enjoy the magic!

Great 360 degree mountain vista walks on 250 acres. Modern day labyrinth.

You won't be disappointed choosing to stay here! In addition to the absolutely gorgeous views and magical land are overnight accommodations to suit a variety of travelers. Authentic log cabins from c.1775 to early 1900's have been reconstructed with modern amenities and add-ons i.e. decks, bedrooms, kitchens etc. These cabins and land have privacy and stunning views of 2 mountain ranges on 250 acres of hay fields and forest above the Maury and South Rivers. A/C and heat. Truly magical!

Retreat during a death in family

We loved everything about this place. It brought a great comfort during a difficult time. It was just what we needed! We look forward to coming back again and again. This pace was enchanted.
