Secluded winter getaway, Nelson 151, MTN views!

Follow along with our adventures on IG @MapleCreekProperties and FB at Maple Creek Properties!

Dancing Bear Lodge is a cabin located in Roseland, VA. It is just over 2,000 square feet, which makes it a spacious size for hosting larger groups of up to 10 people. If you are looking for an "off the grid" experience on 38 acres with a spectacular mountain view, this place is for you! The property is a nice balance of seclusion while still having the comfort of modern amenities and prime location. You will be close to lots of wonderful wineries, cideries, breweries, distilleries (Nelson 151), and outdoor adventure activities! We are about 20 minutes away from the notable Wintergreen Resort, with exciting winter skiing and tubing to enjoy.

The property has some very unique features, including a fireplace built with stones from the old cobblestone streets of Norfolk. In addition, the wood floors in the main living area and other wood features throughout the property are crafted from timber harvested and milled on site. Wildlife abounds on the property - you very well may spot deer, bear, cardinals, and more!

A project we want to embark on (hopefully soon!) is carving out trails for our guests to enjoy to showcase evidence of old chestnut logging trails from the 1800s, beautiful rock formations, and a fresh water spring. We do currently have logging trails from a job completed at the end of 2022, however, the trails are not maintained at this time. Explore at your own risk.

​The master bedroom has a queen sized bed and full en suite bathroom (shower/tub). The master bedroom shares a hallway with 2 other bedrooms (queen and king) and the second full bath (shower/tub). The other (half) bath is on the opposite end of the house, near the kitchen and fourth bedroom (queen).

The details...
-Spectacular mountain view
-WiFi (satellite), brought to you by Starlink
-Wood burning fireplace
-Roku streaming in living room via TCL Roku TV (basic streaming available; bring your own passwords for Netflix, Hulu, etc)
-Board games
-Fully equipped kitchen (we have a standard coffee pot in addition to a Keurig)
-Washer, dryer, dishwasher
-3 queen beds, 1 king bed, 1 sleeper sofa
-Plenty of parking

Other things to note...
*We have a landscaper that comes periodically to do outdoor landscape maintenance. We do our best to try to coordinate this at times guests are not at the property, however, it doesn't always work out that way.
*We have a firepit, fireplace, and charcoal barbecue for guests to enjoy. Firewood and charcoal are not provided at this time.
*We welcome families with small children! The property is not baby proofed (please note the indoor fireplace, outdoor firepit, and small sets of outdoor stairs). Please monitor your children at all times!
*Power outages do happen on the mountain. When they do, please let us know so that we can ensure that the electric company has been notified.
*With being located more remotely, please expect spotty cell/internet reception when getting close to the property, and download directions/guidebook prior to departure.
*Though drivers have made it up the mountain without AWD/4x4, we do recommend a well-equipped vehicle to make it up the mountain. It's nothing treacherous, but those mountain views come at the cost of driving through some steep spots! We especially would recommend AWD/4x4 in inclement weather.
During your stay at this vacation home, you'll be close to Three Ridges Wilderness. The vacation home includes amenities such as free WiFi and a kitchen.
  • Air-conditioned home with kitchen, washer/dryer, and 2.5 bathrooms
  • Free WiFi
  • 11.2 mi (18.1 km) from Wintergreen Resort and 4.4 mi (7.1 km) from Priest Wilderness

Short Vacation at Dancing Bear
My family, son, daughter, grandson, granddaughter and great grandson stayed for three nights at Dancing Bear. We had a wonderful time. The house was even better than it showed in the listing. It was clean and had everything we needed. Views were beautiful. We would stay there again.

Beautiful Cabin!
this cabin is beautiful. The home is comfortable and welcoming, the hosts are very easy to reach and get back to you immediately. They also provide you with a lot of very useful information about the area. The cabin is secluded- it had rain a lot prior to our arrival so having four wheel drive vehicles was very helpful. The views are absolutely stunning and the fire pit was our favorite spot to be. We highly recommend this house and look forward to staying here again!!

Peace and quiet
We had a great time, peaceful and quiet. Enjoyed time on the deck watching the rog roll in, and then burn off. No cell phone service was awesome, but able to connect via text and email online if you wanted. Streaming service available, we watched a couple of movies on Max, and played a lot of card games. Very comfortable beds, and close enough to Wintergreen to go to have a nice sit down dinner. Thanks for everything.

Incredible
The host was incredible to work with. The view is unbeatable. My mother in law has difficulty walking so this cabin was very handicap friendly. The fire pit is nicely situated not to far from the cabin and also offers a great view. The location cannot be beat. Close to skiing and Route 151 to visit breweries. A great time for a family gathering and plenty of walking space for dogs and children alike to get plenty of fresh mountain air. Would definitely rent again.

The owner was extremely nice. She responded to email and questions in a very timely manner. The house is spotless. Every room in the house is nicely decorated, cozy, and spacious.The kitchen has all the amenities you could need or desire. There is also a washer and dryer if you should need one. The pillows and beds were very comfortable. You instantly feel like you’re away from the hustle and bustle of life, and in a cozy, remote getaway. The outside stringed lights and a bit of sparkle to the evening. The fire pit and surrounding chairs are inviting. And there is also a grill on the wrap around deck. The view is just as pictured, Beautiful! The owner makes your stay welcoming and effortless. I am hoping to return in the future for a longer stay. Thank you Katie!

Great stay!
Katie’s house had all the amenities and more! It was centrally located to wineries, breweries and hiking! The view from the house is spectacular! They leave very detailed instructions. They did update us that the long driveway is gravel. We were able to get up it in a minivan and CRV, but it was a little difficult. A four wheel drive would be best, but not 100 percent necessary. They did update us of this in the instruction manual. I would definitely stay here again!

Clean, comfortable & spacious!
This “Dancing Bear Lodge” was perfect for us. It had everything we needed & then some. If we only had more time we would have a bon fire, hike more trails and spend more time sitting on the porch looking at the fantastic view of the mountain and the night sky lit up with stars! Hope to come back soon.

Clean and Comfortable, Wintergreen
This Property is exactly as advertised. It is about a 25 min drive to Wintergreen. Absolutely clean. Check in and out were easy and communication with the host was prompt and timely. We will stay again next time we go to Wintergreen. There was plenty of internet for kids tablets and parents work!
