About this property

Hanging Rock Getaway on 42 acres centrally located with Mountain View

Come visit our area's premier vacation Log Home property!

Get away from it all while maintaining close proximity to urban amenities. Our cabin is only one of two, in a gated and secluded 43-acre property of pristine woods, creeks, and civil war era trails. Wide-eyed deer, wild turkeys, calling birds, turtles, butterflies, and all sorts of critters roam free in our natural paradise.

We are next to the lazy Dan River, well known for canoeing, tubing, kayaking, and swimming, in the quaint little town of Danbury, population 108, located between the Post Office, the Fire Department, and across from a 19th-century historic church so tiny and charming that weddings and baptisms have to limit guests due to its small capacity.

The Retreat at Hanging Rock takes its name from the popular Hanging Rock State Park, home to 7,000 acres of unspoiled nature, including a 13-acre lake with a sandy beach, five waterfalls, and hundreds of nature trails. The main entrance to the park is within an easy bike ride from the cabin or a five-minute drive. Hanging Rock was recognized by USA Today as one of the top 10 state parks in the Nation.

Apart from being a stone's throw away from a pastry shop, a diner, coffee shop, art gallery, live entertainment, general store, and a gas station, we are also within walking distance from the Public Library, a Bank, and a Hospital should an emergency arise.

We are about 3 miles from Historic Priddy's General Store est. 1888 a family-owned and operated business that is one of the oldest in the state of North Carolina. It's like taking a step back in time.

Just a ten-minute drive from the closest Food Lion supermarket, Movie Rental Store, CVS pharmacy, and a treasure trove of antique stores in the laid-back town of Walnut Cove, the cabin is also a half-hour away from the historic city of Winston-Salem, with its original Old Salem quarters dating back to the birth of our nation. Opera Halls, Museums, Universities, Fine Dining, Malls, and Movie Theaters can all be found here. Another historic local attraction can also be found less than an hour away in the back-in-time town of Mt. Airy, inspiration for the town of Mayberry, the fictional home of the Andy Griffith Show TV series.

A forty-five-minute drive in the direction of the Yadkin Valley will take the visitor straight into wine country. Rivaling the Napa region of the West Coast, North Carolina's emerging wine regions and spectacular vineyards, with tasting rooms and tours, are producing award-winning wines that can easily be paired with the finest gourmet meal.

Fly into Greensboro International Airport and arrive at the cabin in less than an hour. The trip from Charlotte or Raleigh Airports will take less than two hours.

Preferable is to drive through the beautiful Appalachian Mountains and arrive via the world-famous Blue Ridge Parkway.

Retirement Celebration Trip

Poor weather prevented us from enjoying the deck and fire pit, but we thoroughly enjoyed cocooning in the cabin. Only problem was lighting the gas fireplace. Recommend that the hostess light the pilot, so all that is left is turning the fire on.

Family get-away

What a great stay we had! We were looking for Covid privacy and distancing and that's what we got! It was great! The cabin was clean, functional for our needs, and relaxing with the comforts of home. We really enjoyed the close hiking at Hanging Rock and cooking in, playing games and relaxing. Thanks for sharing your lovely space with us!

Family time

We stayed here to be close to my family. It was quiet and safe. We were a bit disappointed that the surrounding property wasn’t necessarily a great place for our kids to run around and explore, but they did eventually make a path into the woods close by. The cabin itself was well-stocked with cooking utensils, very clean and a great place to stay! Our family fit comfortably and it was very child friendly. We enjoyed our stay. Would recommend!

perfect location

This was a perfect location for family attending a wedding at The Meadows. It was only an eight minute drive to the venue. The cabin is well maintained, spacious, and private. For the younger family (in their 20's) it was also very convenient to the Hanging Rock hiking trails. Communication with the owner was timely and much appreciated. The information binder was packed full of useful instructions, maps, and recommendations. All of the rooms are on one level. I was concerned that there might be stairs that would inhibit a few of the more elderly, but was not the case at all. Highly recommend. Thank you for sharing your beautiful cabin.

First few hours where great but lady next to us in a cabin ran over electric box and shut power off for the rest of the night..owners came with a candle , but no offer of any monetary response for unconvince ( probably wouldn't have taken it but never offered) cabin did have a few bugs inside and very strange pictures.. but the rest of the place was nice .. had some great views and very updated .. that's why it was just alright.

short and sweet

Our stay at the cabin was quite short because of the distance we had to travel, and all of us wished we could have stayed several more days. We found it to be very spacious and accommodating for our large group. When we're back in the area, we will definitely see if it's available.

Nice and clean, but

need to list in the posting that imaps on Apple products does not register the address for this property. All of the beds were very firm and there were no soap products to utilize in the restrooms. At that price point a renter would expect those types of amenities. Also, the back deck railing is very unsafe and needs to have immediate attention.

About the host

Hosted by Tom and Mercedes Martinez

Host profile image
Hi there, my name is Tom, along with my wife Mercedes, we own a real state company which invests in Florida and North Carolina, two of our favorite places. We truly love the Triad area, specially the charming town of Danbury, which has embraced us as our own family and where we have built our second home. When we first came to Danbury, we fell in love with its natural surroundings, its friendly folks and the overwhelming feeling of community and wholesomeness reminiscent of a bygone era.

Why they chose this property

We bought this property simply because we fell in love with the area, its unspoiled beauty and its proximity to the Hanging Rock State Park, the Dan River and the perfectly manicured vineyards that are producing spectacularly fine wines. These and all the amenities of modern day living make our Cedar Log Home a perfect place to spend a week or even a month!

What makes this property unique

The cabin sits nestled within a 43 acre private wooded area. On the property itself you will enjoy making home cooked meals, toasting s'mores in the fireplace, watching the star studded nights and waking to dew kissed mornings. Hiking the property through its own trails, creeks and crossing over to the Dan River is a calming and healthy exercise. Taking a five minute trip to the Hanging Rock State Park, exploring its nature trails, sandy beach and waterfalls also make for an adventurous commune with nature. Excursions to Winston Salem, Mount Airy, Dobson, Sparta, Elkin, Pilot Mountain, Walnut Cove and all the wineries in the acclaimed Yadkin Valley, will add even more spice to the trip should the visitor begin to feel cabin fever.
