Do you need a digital detox? With the modern use of laptops, tablets, smartphones, smartwatches, televisions, and e-readers to read, check email, work, shop, pay bills, listen to podcasts, stream entertainment, and more, it's safe to say that most of us can use a break from the digital world. I know my sore wrists, shoulders, and neck could use some time away from devices.
There are many ways to take a digital break, and a getaway into nature is one of the best. By escaping to nature, you can spend less time worrying about what digital things you shouldn't do and more about the excellent opportunities to hike, bird watch, gather around a fire pit, or porch-sit. We've scoured the state of Virginia and think this three-bedroom cabin Airbnb in Stanley is the ideal spot to leave technology behind.
The three-bedroom, three-bathroom cabin accommodates six guests. Each bedroom has a memory foam mattress, perfect for enjoying a great night's sleep or a coveted afternoon nap. The first bedroom has a king-sized mattress, the second has a queen-sized mattress, and the third has two twin-sized mattresses.
The cabin also boasts excellent daytime entertainment without screens. It has books, board games, and an indoor electric fireplace. There's also a hot tub with stunning views, ideal for relaxing alone or with a friend. An expansive covered porch with rocking chairs is perfect for reading or enjoying a steamy cup of coffee or tea. The property's outdoor area has a fire pit with Adirondack chairs where guests can gather at the end of the day.
If you like to cook while you're away from home, the cabin's kitchen has everything you'll need to whip up a feast. There are stainless steel appliances, a blender, a toaster, a coffee maker, and a microwave. The kitchen opens to a comfortable dining area, and there is another dining area outdoors with a picnic table.
The Airbnb is a 25-minute drive from Shenandoah National Park, a must-see destination. Visitors can enjoy stunning views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, waterfalls, and wildflowers. The park also offers many fantastic hikes, with over 500 miles of trails.
Lake Arrowhead, one of the most magical lakes in Virginia, is also 15 minutes away from the cabin in Luray, Virginia. A 34-acre lake with beaches and mountain views, Lake Arrowhead is a fantastic place to fish, boat, swim, and hike. There are also picnic areas, volleyball nets, and a one-mile path around the lake.
