Lost River Blackbird A-Frame Cabin: hot tub + wifi

Lost River Blackbird is our treasured A-frame cabin, a family retreat from the city on 3 wooded acres in the heart of the George Washington National Forest (58,000 acres behind the property line), just a 2 hour drive from DC.

INSIDE: Full kitchen, five beds, comfortable furnishings, wi-fi, and enormous windows and skylights offering abundant natural light.

OUTSIDE: Wrap-around deck canopied by pine and maple trees, hot tub, fire pit, grill, picnic area, hammock, and ample outdoor furniture.
The space
Lost River Blackbird is a classic A-frame design, encased entirely in ponderosa pine, outfitted with comfortable furnishings and heirloom wool blankets and throws. This is your quiet retreat for the whole family, including the family dog (no cats, please).

The cabin has two bedrooms and a full bath downstairs and a lofted sleeping space with full bath upstairs. Each of the downstairs bedrooms has a queen bed and doors that open onto the back deck with hot tub. The lofted sleeping space is perfect for kids and has a pair of full beds and a trundle bed that pulls out from the sloped ceiling.

The living room is airy, with enormous windows letting in abundant natural light and offering views onto a deck surrounded by pine trees. It offers ample seating for the entire family on a sectional sofa and is heated by a modern gas fireplace. As night falls, the interior is lit by soft, warm light, glowing from a large lantern chandelier. The room also has a large farmhouse dining table for gathering around at mealtimes and for game nights.

The kitchen is fully equipped and made to actually cook in. It offers a full array of appliances and utensils, pots and pans, a Ninja coffeemaker and pressure cooker, as well as eight full place settings. We also provide coffee, sugar, tea, and cooking basics like oil, salt, pepper, and a few essential spices. There is also a two-person bar with countertop seating that opens into the dining area.

The front deck, which gets dappled sun through the trees in the late afternoon, has comfortable seating for six and a Weber gas grill. The deck wraps around the front of the cabin to the back, where you'll find a small café table with seating for four, as well as the six-person hot tub. A few steps away, you'll find the picnic table and a fire pit with six Adirondack chairs.
Guest access
Access to the cabin is via keypad entry. And while we don't reside in the area full time, we are very responsive to phone calls, emails, and texts. We will make sure that your needs are addressed and met to your satisfaction in a timely manner.
Other things to note
NOTE: We have a slightly angled, gravel driveway, which can be accessed by all vehicles during normal weather conditions. But AWD is needed when there's snow or ice on the ground.

We will send detailed directions to the cabin to guests once they have booked their reservation.
