Rustic Red Cabin on Kerr Lake | Cabin in Clarksville

The cabin is a 1100 square foot, 2-bedroom, 1-1/2 bathroom one-level home. The cozy retreat features 2 queen beds and futon couch that converts to a queen bed in a third small room. Central heating and AC keeps you comfortable no matter the season. There’s plenty of sitting area with a front porch, a back porch, and a 36-foot square partially covered patio with an oversized picnic table. There is a gas grill and a gas camp stove on the covered back porch. A firepit, charcoal grill, and hammock are on the patio.
The cottage is very private fronting 500 feet of shoreline and a grassy beach . We have a dock on the water for your boats or just for lounging.
Kerr Lake, also called Buggs Island Lake, is a great place for watersports, fishing, swimming, outdoor activities, or a quiet location to ponder life and listen to birds sing. The lake is a 57,000-acre freshwater impoundment on the Roanoke River with 800 miles of shoreline. The water is clean and used for drinking water reservoirs. Two state records for catfish were recorded here, and a healthy Bass and Panfish population thrive here along with Striped Bass. Five Virginia State Wildlife Management Areas surround the lake offering off-road driving, hiking and biking, hunting, and nature. The house is a 12-minute drive from the shops, dining and fun of Clarksville, Virginia’s only lake-front town!
Escape to this pleasant getaway and immerse yourself in the serene surroundings. We look forward to welcoming you to our place.
IMPORTANT DIRECTIONS – Unfortunately, some GPS systems misguide you after you get into the community. Here’s the safest way to go:
Take U.S. 15 then turn on state route 858, Oak Hill Dr.
Turn off of 858/Oak Hill Dr. as you pass a line of mailboxes onto the gravel road, Powatan Rd.
Bear right on Powatan Rd. (past dumpsters) stay on this road and turn left on Pocahantas 50 feet after you pass Stuckanox Dr which has a nice street sign on a pole near the road. There is a home-made sign marking Pocahantas, but it is attached to a utility pole and is hard to see.
Continue on Pocahantas till you get to a 4-way intersection (about 600 feet). Please be careful at this intersection because what may look like a road going straight ahead (past no trespassing sign) is not a vehicle road, but an ATV path not suitable for vehicles – road may give way at a steep embankment. Take a left to stay on Pocahantas. Again, there are home-made signs on a tree that may not be obviously visible. Continue on this road till you come to the house. There is a turnaround in front of the house on Pocahantas La.
Please note that the dirt/grass road to the left when facing the house, is blocked by downed trees.
Other things to note
The house is in Oak Hills section of Clarksville. The community roads are privately maintained and are gravel or dirt. Roads to the house are in good shape but are narrow and steep. There are other unused roads in the community that require 4-wheel drive and skillful navigation due to mud, ruts and culverts.
The nearest boat ramp is Bluestone Creek Ramp, on U.S. 15, 2 miles southeast of the intersection of 858 (Oak Hill Rd) . It is operated by the Corps of Engineers and requires a $7 fee or yearly pass for $40.
The lake is used for flood management and the level may change gradually. The shoreline and the lake are owned by the Army Corps of Engineers. You will see red bands painted on trees to mark the boundary line. The public is free to use any of the Corps property, including the grassy beach down from our house. It is 400 feet from the house to the shore at mean water level, and 20-30 feet elevation change.
You will be in a wooded area near a large body of water. There are insects and please be alert when walking as turtles (emerging hatchlings in summer), snakes, rabbits, deer, etc. are common. On the lake keep in mind there are many bald eagles, osprey, hawks, even crows that may snatch your bait or food if it is exposed.
There are dumpsters at the front of the neighborhood, please dispose of trash there. There is no recycling in this community, I bring my recyclables home to recycle. Thank You!
