We’re so excited to share our happy place with you and your loved ones! We look forward to welcoming you.

Please read the below instructions carefully to make your check-in process and stay at the cabin as smooth as possible.
Enjoy your stay, and don’t hesitate to reach out if any questions arise.

Please follow us on Instagram @simplycozygetaways for inspiration and information about the cabin and the neighborhood before, during and after your stay. :)

Your Stay

  • Check-in is at 4:00 pm on. Let us know when you expect to be arriving and we look forward to having you!

  • 914 Fairway Drive, Mount Jackson, VA, USA

    If Mount Jackson (city) doesn't work on your gps you can put Basye for the city. Either one works as for the address!

  • Use your unique 4-digit code (last 4 digits of your phone number) on the smart keypad!

    To lock the door, simply enter your 4-digit code. The door doesn’t automatically lock.

    For Airbnb bookings:
    Use your unique access code from the Airbnb Booking Details section (confirmation email or Airbnb app/website) on the smart keypad on the front door!

    To lock the door, simply enter your unique access code. The door doesn’t automatically lock.

  • Please bring your firewood with you if you’re planning on using the outdoor firepit & the fireplace

    Firewood can be purchased from the Community store (5mins from the cabin).

  • While we love the mountain views, it also means that there may be spotty cell service at points when you are driving around. The cabin itself is equipped with fast and reliable wifi, but just in case, we recommend downloading the surrounding area on google maps (offline) to ensure you aren't relying on spotty service.

    Also, expect to have a spotty cell service at the cabin but again we have a fast and reliable wifi and it's there for you to make the Facetime calls, sending the iMessages, etc..

  • One of our favorite times to enjoy the cabin is in the winter months, but winter precipitation can make the roads a little bit challenging, so we highly recommend making the trip in a 4-wheel-drive vehicle on those snowy days for your own safety and comfort.

  • We have an Ecobee smart thermostat that controls our central AC/Heating.

  • The cabin is located on a small private road that goes up the mountain off Fairway Drive at 914 Fairway Dr, Mount Jackson, VA

    Once your GPS brings you to the address, take a turn up a small private road up a hill off Fairway Dr. Once you take a turn up the private road, up the hill, you’ll see the house on your left-hand side.

  • We have ample parking for 4 cars. Once you reach the house take a right to park.

    In the case of inclement weather, such as snow or ice, DON'T attempt to drive up the driveway to avoid slipping and accidents. Please park BELOW the driveway, behind the Mountain View Lodge sign, where there is space for 3 cars.
