Description
Mendota Farms is a rare offering in Southwest Virginia, encompassing 415± acres of scenic landscape that rises from a rich valley floor to a high point near 2,900 feet on Clinch Mountain. This expansive mountain holding blends privacy, regional heritage, and an uncommon diversity of natural features, all set within a dramatic valley framed by iconic Southern Appalachian ridgelines. Central to the property sits a beautifully restored 1820s log cabin, thoughtfully preserved with hand-hewn logs, historic joinery, and period character. Broad porches and an elevated deck overlook the Holston River, creating an unmatched vantage point for quiet mornings, wildlife watching, and evening gatherings. The cabin currently serves as a successful short-term rental, boasting a perfect record of 94 five-star reviews-an impressive testament to both the property's charm and its hospitality appeal. The landscape offers nearly a mile of river frontage, with more than half located on both banks, and includes two ponds, 125 acres of pasture, and mature hardwood forest. A private steel-truss bridge with viewing platforms establishes a memorable arrival experience and secure access across the river. Agricultural and operational improvements include a large enclosed equipment barn, a wood barn with cattle handling infrastructure, and a separate hay barn, supporting both recreational and agricultural pursuits. Location enhances this offering further: the property lies just minutes from the celebrated Carter Family Fold and within easy reach of Bristol's entertainment, dining, and airport access. The result is a mountain retreat that feels deeply private yet remains connected to some of the region's most storied cultural and outdoor destinations.
