Bison Farm - Cabin "Vieja"

Booking of this cabin is allowed for up to 3 months from now, except Jan-mid-March where bookings are allowed based on weather two weeks out. If you are interested in a date that is further than 3 months from now, please set a reminder to come back and book it as it opens up. When you see it unavailable more than 3 months from now, that just means that it is not yet open and available for booking and scheduling.

There is a fold-down couch with a mattress pad and bedding that can be used for a small person or a couple of small children in the living room, but the cabin is small and most suited to a couple. This is only 42 wide x 65 long.

There is no laundry in the cabin, but there are laundry facilities in the crew lounge up at the main house that can be used.

The wifi is a 5G service and works well for web browsing, social media, music and video streaming, and to support the TV in the cabin. It is not good for video and facetime calls.

The cabin is not handicap accessible.

The cabin is located about a mile back from the front of the farm along a gravel road with hills. It is accessible with any vehicle.

If you are coming for a winter-stay: the roadway access could be an issue during snow or ice conditions. Note that if a snow or ice condition comes along, we will alert you in advance of any issues to discuss options.

Cibola Farms is a working bison farm doing business in the DC region as Virginia Bison Co. There are about 250 bison that rotate in 2-3 herds across the property and it should be noted that this cabin is located within this working bison operation and special care should be taken when traveling across the property by car or on foot as it pertains to gates and safety.

The retail store is stocked with all cuts of bison meat and the cabin is equipped with a working kitchen and BBQ. If interested in any bison meats, please be sure to shop Wed-Sun 9-5 before the store closes, and if lodging on Mon/Tues, then contact us for access to any meat supplies during the day.

Self-guided trails and pasture walks are available after you check in with the crew for the location and movement of bison herds.
