About Us

A place to arrive at
and stay awhile

Nestled along Pond Mountain in Whitetop, Virginia, Three State Ranch sits at a geographic crossroads — where the borders of Virginia, Tennessee, and Kentucky meet in the rolling Appalachian foothills. We've built a retreat for people who come to the mountains for a reason: to hunt, to hike, to fish, or simply to unplug and breathe air that hasn't been touched by anything but wind and pine.

Whether you're planning a weekend of backcountry hunting, a family gathering, or a solo trip to clear your head, our lodge offers comfortable lodging and a home base that won't try too hard. No frills. No rush. Just a real place in the mountains with room to spread out.

What You Can Do

The mountains don't
make you wait

Hunting

Whitetop sits in prime deer and small game country. The three-state location gives you access to diverse hunting grounds across Virginia, Tennessee, and Kentucky — all within a short drive.

Hiking

Pond Mountain is one of the higher ridges in the region, with trails that climb through hardwood forest and open balds with sweeping views of the surrounding valley.

Quiet Time

Sometimes the best thing the mountains offer is nothing at all — no Wi-Fi, no noise, just the sound of wind through the pines and a fire going when the sun drops.

Group Gatherings

Hunting trips, family reunions, or a weekend with friends — the lodge is set up for groups who want to share a meal and a fire after a long day outdoors.

Wildlife Viewing

From the porch, you might spot turkey, deer, or a hawk riding the thermals. The Ridge and Valley ecosystem supports a wide range of wildlife throughout the year.

Stargazing

With minimal light pollution and elevation above the valley, the night sky here is clear and bright. Bring a blanket and stay up late — it's worth it.
