Blacksburg Apartment | Breathtaking Mountainside Farm Escape -10 min to VA TECH, 20 to Aquatic Center

2 Bedroom Apartment in Blacksburg

A memorable stay awaits you at this beautiful mountain-side farm. The Wandering Goat Lodge located on Big Cedars Farm currently offers a 17,400 sq ft PRIVATE access lower apartment featuring stunning views, a relaxing retreat and farm adventures abound.
BONUS- we are multi-pet friendly and also have FIBER Internet! :)
Located 5 miles from Blacksburg, Virginia and 11 miles from Christiansburg Aquatic Center... Ellett Valley is a quaint, rural "Sunday-Drive" destination outside of town with generations of Farm-living, historic homesteads, stunning views and close access to the Appalachian Trail iconic hikes-- all in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
We are near the town of Blacksburg -- but just far enough to decompress and embrace breath-taking natural beauty. Seasonally & daily we encourage you to visit and take a walk, pet the animals and immerse yourself within the property's quiet spaces. This is a predominately family-owned valley and our farm is no exception. With a deep heritage of looking out for one another, it will probably be one of the safest places you ever stay -- and definitely one of the most beautiful.
Located along Mossy Spring Creek and overlooking Paris Mountain, The Wandering Goat Lodge at Big Cedars Farm is just 10 minutes from downtown Blacksburg & VA TECH Campus.
The WGL space sleeps 6 people and can accommodate more upon request. Bring your dogs and we even have a pen for them outside if you like. IF you have more guests, try our RETRO camper --the ROAM Inn- as an additional booking. We are told our farm is the perfect spot to be "near town" yet embrace all of nature and the beauty of the surrounding mountains. In the summer, young and old alike will enjoy the creek and in the cooler months, you can cozy up to our amazing bonfire--which offers a perfect backdrop for some memorable family photos. Try it, we believe you will love it and want to return.
