Closest Cabin to Old Rag & Steps to White Oak Canyon; 2 ponds w/private creek | Cabin in Syria
1 Bedroom Cabin in Syria
Incredible location!! With numerous water features, and a rich and charming history, this special property is the closest you can rent to the Old Rag Berry Hollow trailhead and a close walk to the White Oak Canyon/Cedar Run trailhead. Forget fighting for a parking spot, walk out the front door to the trailheads. “Berry Hollow Retreat” is the perfect escape for outdoor enthusiasts. The land consists of 5+ acres bordering Shenandoah National Park and has 2 ponds and a bold private mountain creek. Enjoy the famous waterfalls and panoramic summit views of the Shenandoah National Park. Watch the sun set from the patio, fly fish the nearby famous Robinson, Hughes and Rose trout streams. Gather with friends for drink and food at nearby Ducard Vineyard, Blue Quartz/Shotwell Run Brewery, and Graves Mountain Lodge. The property is rustic - expect to encounter lots of wildlife!
There are two cabins on the property. This listing is for the cabin called "Birch's Library." The cabin is perfect for nature lovers -- an amazing location if you like hiking fishing, birding, or just unplugging and going off grid. There is one ample sized bedroom with custom twin “captain” beds. A previous owner had them made extra high so he could wake up to views of his beloved ponds. There's also a comfortable futon in the great room. You'll also find plenty of interesting things in the cabin, such as an antique phonograph that still works.
The private mountain creek that runs through the entire property is a tributary to the Robison River. You can hear its soothing sounds from inside Birch's Library when the windows are open. The stream feeds two ponds which have a history of being stocked with trout. You can still see fish in the pond -- and we plan to stock it with rainbow trout for catch and release fishing (will update listing when stocked).
The other cabin on the property is solely for use by the owners. It was originally built in 1864/65 by a Union solider from the 16th Maine Regiment. It came to affectionately be known as "Potlikker House." You can see the hand-hewing marks on the logs made with an adze to roughly square up the logs.
Also, lore has it that a previous owner acquired Herbert Hoover’s dilapidated piano during a renovation of Camp Hoover and embedded its metal frame in the walkway between Potlikker House and Birch’s Library - you will still find it there!
