Fun Tiny Cabin
We really enjoyed the beautiful tiny cabin and it's proximity to Grayson Highlands. The cabin was well equipped and had a great sunrise view. The short walk to the stream was nice, too.

Deep into Virginia
The place has all that is needed except for: a comfortable mattress in the main bedroom, a can opener that works, and unbroken sturdy firepit chairs. We were very close to fun creeks and parks to explore, so we did. And It was nice to rest in a cool place after a full day of fun in the summer heat.

We WILL be back...
Location, peaceful, relaxing, comfortable, all you could possiy need. We chose Rumple's Retreat at Highland Hideaways for our 2 week stay so we could visit 8 different state parks in SW VA. Since we camped near Natural Bridge and Lynchburg on both ends of the trip, we brought way too much. Really, a suitcase and a grocery store visit enroute is all you need. Oops, and a rocker for the front porch time; there is a table and chairs though. A couple of not such abig deal things about this beautiful cabin: - be patient with the door lock responding to unlock - morning in the summer comes around 5 to 6, due to the window coverings or not. The loft is really bright. We have a dog, so that was not much of a problem and on some mornings we wanted to be on the trail early. - Alexa sometimes talks with her mouth full, so she is difficult to understand or hear. - Water is delicious straight out of the tap. We were out too late or in bed too early to get the opportunity to use the fire pit or grill.

Amazing place for rest after hiking
We used the cabin as our base for a hiking / bouldering experience with the multiple options within minutes all around. Great set up for the three of us. All the little things we needed in the kitchen and so many things to make the stay super enjoyable and comfortable. Plenty of space to lounge and stretch out after long days of hiking.

The cabin was very clean and well maintained. The description provided is accurate. It is located a short distance from Grayson State Park and I highly recommend taking the time to explore. The community arcade was a fun little way to keep busy while at the cabin. Overall it was a great experience! I would recommend this cabin to others and will be visiting again.

Short stay
Got away for a few days. Cabin very nice and clean. Very small but fine for the 2 of us. Nowhere to put your clothes except a hanger next to the bed. There is a dresser but it was full of other things. Bed was very comfortable. Everything was provided that we needed. Arcade was nice but mostly everything had a cost. We enjoyed the free air hockey😊 . Had a hard time locating the “drive in movie theater” but finally found the screen on the backside of the arcade. Might be a good idea to tell people exactly where it was located. Not sure we ever found the trout stream. We did find a nice little stream on the road to the right of the property but unsure if this was the place mentioned to fish. We went to the state park which was really lovely and also visited Abingdon and Wytheville. We saw a show at the Barter theater which was awesome. All in all a nice trip but unless you are an avid hiker, not much to do in this area.

Wonderful property, great host.
We booked the cabin for a few nights recently. The host contacted us on our way there that the power had been knocked out for the whole area by a wind storm. He met us at check in and brought us jugs of water and lantern, and offered to bring us extra blankets and anything else we needed. The power was back the next day and we got to fully enjoy the property. The cabin was fully stocked with everything we might need. And the onsite arcade was truly remarkable... the kids (and adults) loved it.

Great for a long weekend getaway
Had a blast, enjoyed hiking Grayson Highlands State Park. The arcade was very cool unfortunately weren't able to check out the drive-in theater due to poor weather conditions. The only thing I wish I knew about ahead of time was the neighbors dog molly free roams all the adjacent homies from hers. My one dog isn't great with other female dogs but luckily my friend was their to help distract Molly when my pup needed to go outside or to leave with us.

It was one of the best family experiences we’ve had. The house in fact didn’t save an effort to provide comfort and convenience for their guests (us). The property has almost all possible amenities you would want. The idea of running it smart through the smart assistant (Alexa) made it very easy and convenient. Heater are everywhere there even a washer and a dryer. The arcade room is another story. It made the most fun for the whole family. I will really consider staying there again. Thank you so much.

Highland GEM!
My family and I visited the area for a few day adventure and this cabin was an absolute gem! It’s perfect in every way, stocked in an efficient and thoughtful manner…everything was apparently thought of when this cabin was staged for its guests. The cabin also offers a detached arcade which for the most part was absolutely free, our son LOVED this area!! A few things to note… -Day 1we hiked the Grayson Highlands with the ponies, this cabin is less than 10min from the park. -Day 2 we biked the Virginia Creeper Trail, this cabin is roughly 50min away from the Damascus area where we shuttled via Sundog Outfitters. -There is a small market no more than a few minutes away but my family and I chose the Corner Market and Cafe which was roughly 10min away…it’s great as well and offered breakfast, lunch, dinner, ice cream, gas, all the essentials! I say all of this because the location is perfect! Everything is perfect and to recommend this place is an understatement, we will definitely be back!! Thank you Highland Hideaways for making our Fall Break comfortable and affordable, our memories will last a lifetime!!

Clean and Cozy
I was immediately impressed (and relieved) at how clean and tidy the property was. The cabin was very clean and well maintained. There were helpful reminders and instructions around the cabin as well to get acquainted with everything. The timber frame and wood interior is beautiful and the cozy size of the cabin is perfect. It has pretty much all a traveler needs and more. For security, I appreciated the deadbolts on both the doors, interior light options and especially the exterior porch and flood lights. For connectivity, the wifi service was very reliable. The furnace unit was very effective and easy to use which was much needed on the cold nights. I would definitely recommend this property!

I could not have asked for anything more on my official 1st Solo getaway! Spent a few days exploring Grayson Highlands State Park and the location could not have been better! Cabin is a "smart" Cabin and even easy for us technically challenged folks. Very clean and plenty of hot water after a day of hiking. Would definitely stay again.

We rented this cute & cozy cabin as a base for day hikes along the Appalachian Trail. Over three days, we hiked from Elk Garden to Hurricane Campground. After a day of hiking, we enjoyed returning to the cabin and sipping cold beverages on the porch. Molly-the-dog joined us! Thanks!
