Come spend some time in a completely refurbished railroad caboose (with all
the modern amenities) just off the Blue Ridge Parkway at Orchard Gap, mile
marker 193.5. Grassy Creek Cabooses are cabooses renovated into cabins for
lodging/rental in the mountains near Fancy Gap Virginia with 2 person
jacuzzi's and satellite tv in each unit. We are convenient to I-77 near the
NC/VA state line or highways 52 & 58 running through NC & VA.
The Depot (cabin) is also available. The 2 person jacuzzi is in the bedroom
and a queen size sleeper sofa is in the living room. The depot is over 500
sq/ft and features 3 decks 2 of them covered as well as all the other amenities
of the cabooses. You won't find a nicer cabin with all the extras we provide for
less.
We are now members of Virginia Green. Check our link to Virginia Green on

Escape the hustle and bustle of urban life as you relax on one of the decks in
a cedar log rocker while taking in the high meadow, rolling countryside at an
elevation around 3000 ft. There are a couple of oversize swings on the hill to
relax and unwind while the world hurries by. Since we are near Fancy Gap and
just off the Parkway you will find this to be a peaceful and serene setting.
Grassy Creek Cabooses is a great place for your anniversary, honeymoon or a
romantic getaway. You will find our accommodations to be secluded & private.
We are convenient (within 1.5 to 2 hours) to several NASCAR tracks if you
are traveling for a race. Those tracks are: Bristol Motor Speedway, Lowe's
Motor Speedway, and Martinsville Speedway.
On a clear night you can sit outside to see thousands of stars in the higher
altitude without a bunch of those bright vapor lights. During the day you can
walk around the 33+ acres and hike down the hill to Grassy Creek. There you
can relax all by your lonesome among the pine & laurel thickets. On occasion
you may see a doe & fawn run across or maybe even some turkeys or a buck.
Whether you're just stopping over while traveling the Blue Ridge Parkway or
as a home base for the many local activities you will find Grassy Creek
Cabooses to be a most enjoyable and memorable place to spend some time.
