L&J Cabin Rentals
The scenic Blue Ridge Mountains are the backdrop for these three rental cabins. Choose a cabin with one, two or three bedrooms, each with air conditioning, cable TV, fireplace, laundry, and an in-unit hot tub. Pets are welcome, but must stay outside the cabin. The cabins are handicap accessible and open year-round. While you're in the area, bring your mountain bike to the Virginia Creeper Trail, which runs through the Jefferson National Forest, all the way to the Virginia state line. Or check out the canoeing in the New River State Park--it's a good spot for beginners because of the smooth, shallow water.

Frog Holler Cabins
Located on Big Elkin Creek in the Blue Ridge Mountain foothills, these cabins are ideal for travelers who want to walk straight from their cabin into the water, where you can swim or fish. There are four cabins to choose from, including a 148-year-old two-bedroom log cabin that sleeps six (Lyon's Cabin). The cabin has been fully restored, offering a fireplace, hot tub, washer/dryer, high-speed Internet and central heat/air. Pets must be approved by the owners, and require an extra fee. All cabins feature full kitchens, fireplaces and hot tubs; each sleeps three to four people. Stone Mountain State Park is just minutes away with opportunities for rock climbing and trail hiking.

RagApple Lassie Guest Cottage
Nestled beneath Pilot Mountain, this bungalow-style cottage sleeps six and rests near the vineyard of the same name. Built in 1931 by the owner's parents, this guest house features a full kitchen, three bedrooms, two full baths, cable TV and Internet access. Sip lemonade on the porch and patio, or send the kids off to the tree swing. Visit the winery for tours and a tasting, or head over to Pilot Mountain State Park for a hike. Rock climbers are welcome in designated areas---the Big Pinnacle is off limits, however. You can also take a raft or canoe onto Yadkin River, which flows through the park.
