Property Description
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.

A peaceful stay in the beautiful mountains
Wandering Goat Lodge was everything it promised. We hiked around, fed goats, enjoyed a beautiful view, and stayed comfortably. Lodge had two beautiful bedrooms, decorated with antiques, and a fold-out couch. We watched Star Trek every night on satellite (tv was not Smart tv). Kitchen was well-equiped, but there is NOT a dishwasher. The bathroom was super nice! Loved our stay and the hosts were very helpful and kind.

Amazing
My family and I stayed here while my sons attended a camp at VT. Everyone loved it. Needless to say, we'll be booking again with them next year. We slept like logs and even got to hold newborn baby goats! Warren and his family were extremely accomodating and all around good people. Also, you have beautiful view from the fronch porch for when you're relaxing. I would highly recommend.

My family and I stayed at the Wandering Goat Lodge in June. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! If you are looking for tranquility and the beauty of nature, this is it! It was clean, beautifully decorated, and had more than enough room for my family. It was also close enough to town that you could make a quick trip in if you needed anything. If you're looking for a VRBO stay that offers a beautiful location, incredible mountain views, and an atmosphere of pure relaxation, look no further.

Amazing place!
We had the most amazing stay at Warrens apt. Not only was the view spectacular, the place was extremely clean and had all accommodations one would need. The Donkeys and goats were a huge bonus! Let’s just say my 24 yo was in tears when she had to leave and said it was one of her favorite places. We will definitely be back!

Blue Ridge Peace & Quiet
Very clean, well appointed VRBO. Pet friendly. Goats (and babies) and donkeys - what's not to like. 15 mins from Virginia Tech. River/creek is clear and cold. Beds are comfy. Sat TV works well. Owner is very nice and available if needed. We highly recommend.

Repeat visitor
This will be our home away from home when visiting the Blacksburg area! The home owners are so kind and welcoming and the location is perfect. We even got to see baby goats right after they were born! Thank you for your hospitality!!

Perfect mountain getaway
The perfect mountain getaway! Conveniently located near town, yet offers a peaceful escape. The donkeys and goats were a real highlight. Amazing views! The space was cozy, well-appointed, and made us feel right at home.
