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).

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.
