HoriZEN House - Beautiful Mountain Home!
HoriZEN house is the perfect place to relax, unwind and find your inner zen.
This pristine ridge top home is set in a very private sanctuary of peaceful living and provides jaw-dropping mountain and valley views. This lovely 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath house features an incredibly equipped kitchen, a wood burning fireplace, a furnished deck and a hot tub.
The location is perfect for exploring the Blue Ridge Parkway and is close to the Appalachian Trail. Use the provided flashlights to hike the nearby Blue Ridge Tunnel trail. Drive 3 miles down the Parkway and hike up Humpback Rock. If you're here during winter, have fun at “The Plunge”, Virginia’s largest tubing park, or enjoy skiing at Wintergreen Resort. Year-round excitement awaits whether its hiking, skiing, antiquing, visiting wineries or breweries or going to a UVA football game! HoriZEN House has it all!

One of the attractions of our HoriZEN home is the wilderness setting. Living surrounded by nature can put you in close contact with creatures great and small. Everything from bears, deer, snakes outside to lady bugs (no matter how fastidious the cleaning) inside can be encountered. Please make sure all doors and windows are closed and secured when entering or leaving the house and be observant of your surroundings when enjoying this bucolic setting! Do not leave food in your parked vehicle. Lock your car doors because the bears can get into unlocked doors and cause costly damage, which owners are not responsible for. Life in the mountains! Enjoy your stay!
