Much more than just a place to stay, Mountain Lake Lodge offers a resort set on the shore of a natural lake, in the midst of a 2,600-acre forest preserve. Conveniently located atop Salt Pond Mountain in Pembroke, just 16 miles from the college town of Blacksburg and an easy drive from major cities like Richmond and Washington, DC, our Virginia mountain wilderness hotel is a place you can call your home away from home – for a day, a week or longer.
At Mountain Lake, adventures reveal themselves at every turn. Explore the Conservancy’s 22 miles of hiking and mountain biking trails, or feed your adrenaline on the new Aerial & Zip Line Adventure Course. Spend an afternoon on the New River fishing, rafting, kayaking or paddle boarding. Let us pack you a picnic lunch to take along on a private river trip. The Lodge is adjacent to Jefferson National Forest, offering over 90 square miles of rivers and trails to explore, including the Appalachian Trail.
