Haven Ridge cabin in the private New River Preserve community is an idyllic location for a secluded getaway for couples, small families, or a few friends. This cozy log cabin is a perfect place to rest and recharge, escape from a hectic schedule, enjoy nature, or celebrate a special occasion.

Antique and modern elements combine to create a unique mountain experience on this private 1.85 acre lot. The exterior features preserved circa 1882 logs, while the interior features reclaimed trim from a 1940s tobacco barn combined with modern construction. The covered screen porch is a guest favorite!

The property has 125 ft of private river frontage (the cabin is not directly on the water), just a short walk down the drive, below the cabin, is a grassy area, easily accessible and perfect for a picnic, fishing, kayaking, or just enjoy sitting by the water with a good book! Folding chairs are available for use at the cabin. This walk is a short distance down the gravel lane. The hike is steep but there is space directly below the cabin on the property to park a car if necessary while using the river space. SEE aerial view of property in photos

The New River Preserve is a private community, and while it seems remote, it is located just 15 minutes from West Jefferson, 6 miles from the quaint town of Lansing. Both towns offer grocery shopping, good restaurants, specialty shops, easy walking and lots to see and do.

Boone and Blowing Rock are an easy drive from the cabin and worth a day trip visit. Grayson Highlands is also close by and has great non-technical hiking trails, often with ponies grazing along the trails.

We hope you enjoy your time in the North Carolina mountains!
