Dryden and Big Stone Gap are close enough for the necessities, while the larger surrounding communities of Southwest Virginia provide additional shopping, restaurants, healthcare and services. And when it's time to get outside, you're surrounded by some of the finest scenery and outdoor recreation the Appalachian region has to offer.
