The Magical Cabin on Back Creek
Magic is the word most people use when they visit this hidden gem. Built in 1939 as a fishing cabin by a gentleman who incorporated box cars as rafters and beams, dates still visible since removing the attic. By far the best place I've ever lived. I decided to share it with others who love to explore, who love listening to the voice of the creek or who come just to sit on the porch high above the creek with a spouse, friend, family, or alone. For the best sleep, open the bedroom window!

The Cabin Deep in the Poplars
You found it. A secluded oasis tucked away in Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains. Wake up with coffee on the covered deck, listening to birdsong and the peaceful sounds of the creek. Spend your afternoons relaxing in the hammock chairs or soaking in the hot tub, then end the day around the fire pit under the stars. If you’ve been craving a quiet escape to reconnect and unwind, you’ve found it. •15 min to the Blue Ridge Parkway •20 min to Smith Mountain Lake •25 min to Downtown Roanoke
