About this property

Tranquil And Secluded Cabin On 326 Acres With Mountain Views ~ AMAZING!

Located only 30 minutes from two colleges, Virginia Military Institute, and Washington and Lee, as well as the Virginia Equestrian Center.

Enjoy fishing from the deck just out the front door or hiking in the Little North Mountain Wildlife Management Area consisting of 56,000 acres where wildlife abounds. There are convenient trail heads nearby for as much hiking as you desire.
At the Mountain Pond House we have recently acquired some additional trails for our guests who are hiking enthusiasts. The trails are through some of the most pristine forests of Virginia and consist of an additional 5 miles of hiking on the premises; bring your camera.

Conveniently located between Staunton and Lexington and about 45 minutes from the Omni Homestead Resort and the Sam Snead Golf Course.

The cabin has a master bedroom with a queen bed, a loft upstairs with one twin bed and one queen bed, moderately sized family seating area, kitchen with table that seats six and two stools at a kitchen bar, one full bath with shower and a half bathroom off the kitchen.

Covered parking as well as a covered seating area outside the front entrance. A fire pit is located outside for wood fires and grilling. There are approximately two miles of private walking trails for walking and enjoying wildlife. Motorized vehicles are not permitted on the trails, this is necessary to protect wildlife, the hay fields, and your safety. Please confine motorized vehicles to the pond house road.

The spring fed pond is stocked with large mouth bass, perch, and catfish. Bring your fishing gear. Fishing is catch and release only.

After numerous inquiries we added cable internet and TV on 3 August 2020 to make your stay a more pleasant experience. Rockbridge County increased the lodging tax by 3% beginning 1 August 2020 and our fees were increased by $5.00 per day to cover these increased costs.

Please bring your own provisions. The nearest grocery store is 30 minutes away and there is no fast food delivery here, we are too far out of the way. There is a Kroger, Food Lion, and Walmart in Lexington and it is recommended you stop there for any grocery needs prior to your arrival. The kitchen contains most utensils and cooking items to include a k-cup coffee maker but please bring your own coffee.
During your stay at this guesthouse, you'll be close to Goshen Pass Natural Area Preserve.
  • Onsite recreation includes hiking/biking trails
  • 9.1 mi (14.7 km) from Goshen Pass Natural Area Preserve and 11.3 mi (18.2 km) from Lexington Valley Vineyard
This guesthouse offers its guests barbecue grills and local meal delivery service. The front desk is open around the clock.

This Middlebrook guesthouse is smoke free.

This is a beautiful home in the country. The host are amazing and very attentive. We loved the quiet and peaceful property. If you like to get away this is your place to go. You can fish in the pond and take a lot of walks in the forest. Make sure you bring your food and supplies so you don't have to go back into town. Enjoy!

Our family had a great time staying at this cabin! It is stunning and clean! The pond right off the deck is perfect for the fishermen in the family while the walking trails and nearby farm animals were pure joy for our little one.

We loved this cabin and location! It was super calm and peaceful. The cabin decor and the pond made for a perfect country/woods atmosphere that we were looking for. The cabin was stocked well and so we didn’t need anything additional for our stay except food. The TV is a flat screen and a Roku was provided. We ate in Lexington and picked up groceries at the Lexington Walmart. We went to the Natural Bridge Caverns which was very cool. The owner’s were responsive as well. We enjoyed sitting outside overlooking the pond with our wine in the evenings. I highly recommend that you stay here wether you are looking for a romantic weekend or are a nature lover!

We Loved Everything About This Property!
Our family truly enjoyed a relaxing vacation in the mountains of Virginia! We were attending a horse show at the Virginia Equestrian Center. Normally we like to stay within 10-15 minutes of the venue, but because of graduation at VMI, we had to expand our search. This is when we found this gem of a property! Tucked away in the mountains, our cell reception was a bit spotty but the GPS had no trouble guiding us to the location. Narrow, windy roads took us through small towns established in the 1700's and 1800's, which added to the charm of the area! The property itself was modern construction, well built and had plenty of space for our family of 5. It was obvious it was well cared for - very clean and had everything we needed. We played with the football and volleyball, explored the property's trails and even took out the small boat around the lake a couple times. We saw squirrels, chipmunks, birds, deer, possum, rabbits, raccoons, and of course, the horses that graze in the pasture. We prepared breakfast every morning at the house and ate lunch and dinner in Lexington. The house had everything we needed, including fast and reliable wifi. The owner was in contact with us before and during our stay to make sure we were enjoying ourselves and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. This is a wonderful place to stay off the grid for families that want to get away from life for a little while and enjoy quality family time and nature.

Beautiful property
My family and I had a wonderful stay at this property. We were hoping for a relaxing get away and that's just what we got. We really enjoyed the the decor and set up of the cabin, our kids LOVED getting to stay up in the loft. The cabin has several trails you can do without leaving the property and the small pond was just perfect to be able to sit out on the deck and enjoy. Our first day before check in time we went to Rockbridge Vineyard and enjoyed some time there before getting to the cabin. I was a bit nervous about wifi reliability of wifi at the cabin but we had no problems. It was about a 30 min drive into Lexington and we drove into town for a carriage ride and learned about some of the history and had a fun walk around to some art stores and a nice meal. The outside grill/fire pit was fun and the kids (ok and me too!) roasted marshmallows as we watched the moon rise right over the pond. Great visit, I would definitely recommend!

Wonderful Cabin in Secluded Location
Beautiful cabin and gorgeous setting. The decor is stunning, we truly felt like we were in a mountain lodge, with high ceilings, wooden furniture, and more. We also loved walking the trails on the grounds. One issue we had is that we didn't have cell reception (not a problem) but we couldn't find any info on the wifi passcode when we got there. And we couldn't call or communicate in any way since we didn't have reception. After some searching we found a sheet of paper in a closet with the password but it was not clearly visible. So make sure you have all that before you go!

Peace and Quiet
If you want peace and quiet this is the place. Well maintained, kitchen has plenty of amenities, comfortable beds, and gorgeous views of the pond, especially at first light/ sunrise. Great place to relax as a family. There are plenty of board games in the house and the WiFi is plenty capable if you need to get online. Definitely bring all your groceries as it’s a long drive to get anywhere.

Great stay for relaxation and refreshing
We absolutely enjoyed our stay. We had plans to explore the area but decided to stay and just explore the cabin and trails. We loved seeing the horses and the many creatures like rabbits, deer, and fox. The pond was fun. We didn't do any fishing, but it was fun seeing them jump. The cabin itself is comfortable and the internet allowed us to do a bit of work during the day. The trails behind the cabin were a lot of fun as well.

We had a wonderful stay and spent a lot of time sitting on the porch taking in the beauty (the perfect place for enjoying our morning coffee & early evening wine). Natural Bridge isn't too far away, so we ventured there for an afternoon.
