Wake up to the sound of the Piney River flowing beneath towering hemlock, spend the afternoon tubing crystal-clear mountain water, then end the night beside a fire under the Blue Ridge stars.
Welcome to Sycamore Shade, a secluded riverfront cottage in Roseland, Virginia, nestled between Cardinal Mountain and Little Priest Mountain. Located along the banks of the Piney River and adjoining the George Washington National Forest, this charming Blue Ridge retreat offers privacy, tranquility, and direct access to the river, park and nature — while still being an easy drive to Charlottesville, Lexington, Lynchburg, and Staunton.
Relax on the deck, read in the hammock, or fall asleep to the calming sound of the river flowing over rocks. The Piney River is home to native brook trout and stocked brown trout, making this an ideal spot for fishing. Bring your fishing tackle, snorkel masks, and inner tubes for enjoying the river year-round.
Outdoor adventures are right outside your door, including:
Hiking the Appalachian Trail
Exploring the Shoe Creek Jeep Trail
Mountain biking scenic gravel roads along the river
Skiing and snowboarding at Wintergreen Resort (30minutes away)
Nelson County is known for its wineries, breweries, orchards, and seasonal festivals, all nearby and easy to explore.
