What makes this property unique
This isn't just a cabin-its a one-of-a-kind, hand-scribed Canadian Log home, custom built specifically for this property. Every log was carefully selected and crafted with precision, giving the home charm and rustic elegance you won't find anywhere else locally. The front door was carved by a Canandian carver with every detail telling a story. Soaring ceilings, hand carved spiral stairs and mother nature's gleaming presence thru the windows creates an unforgettable experience. It's not just a place to stay -it's a destination in itself. Rock the day away on the deck overlooking the Greenbrier River, look at the changing of the leaves or set out for an adventure. Just breath!!!
