Hummingbird's Rest

About

Nestled in the quiet countryside of Boonesville, Virginia, Hummingbird’s Rest is a charming 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath log cabin designed by renowned woodworker Charles McRaven. Known as an “active historian” for his work preserving traditional building crafts, McRaven brought his artistry to life in this handcrafted retreat. Just 45 minutes from Charlottesville and 2 hours from Washington, D.C., the cabin offers an ideal blend of rustic character, modern comfort, and natural beauty.

The home comfortably sleeps up to 6 guests, with a king bedroom, a queen bedroom, and a queen pull-out sofa in the cozy living area. A fully equipped kitchen makes dining in a breeze, with specialty local coffee provided to start your mornings off right. Gather by the stone fireplace indoors or head outside to enjoy the fire pit by the water’s edge. With large windows overlooking the property’s private pond, this cabin invites guests to slow down, relax, and connect with nature.

Set on a spacious property surrounded by mountain views, Hummingbird’s Rest is also perfectly located for exploring Virginia’s wine country, with Moss Vineyard, Glass House Winery, and Hark Vineyards just minutes away. Whether you’re sipping wine, hiking in the Blue Ridge, or simply soaking in the peaceful atmosphere, this log cabin offers a one-of-a-kind retreat for families, couples, and small groups alike.
