What We Offer: Facilities, Services, Activities, and Opportunities

The Niles Cabin is a three-bedroom house with all the utilities available for overnight stays or daytime use. Two small bedrooms are for up to four guests, one has a double bed, the other two single beds. Each bedroom has sliding glass doors with views of the woods or woods and pond. Meeting space for day use is available for groups up to 15 people in the cabin. Though no air conditioning, many ventilating screened doors and ceiling fans and a surrounding forest assure the Cabin is comfortably cool in the summer.

Our roofed tree house can seat up to 25 or so and offers a forested vista and western horizon with many acres of woodland and miles of hiking trails. Individuals, couples, and families have used the roofed tree house as a more comfortable way to camp. Recently, for example, a family of four, with two girls, aged 4 and 2, enjoyed camping out under the roof during intermittent and welcome summer rains.

Camping is available at primitive campsites near the tree house. We have a picnic table with a fire pit and a basic outhouse nearby. The waterproof, wooden and carpeted yurt sleeps up to four or five.

Retreats: We offer occasional planned retreat events. Groups or families use our place for their own retreats. Or you can craft a retreat for one or 20, including silent retreats.

Hiking: Maps of trails are available at Niles Cabin. In the fall hunting season, stay on the marked hiking trails and wear a bright orange vest available at the Cabin. On our trails you’ll see ponds, streams, valley overlooks, rock outcroppings, the Devils Racecourse, a variety of flora, waterfall, springs, streams, and the Shenandoah River.
