Looking for builders/GC
Hi everyone,
I’m an investor currently planning a short-term rental cabin build in Virginia (Blue Ridge / Shenandoah area) and I’m looking to connect with experienced general contractors who have built or managed similar projects.
Ideally, I’m looking for someone who has experience with:
- New construction cabins / A-frame or modern mountain homes
- STR / Airbnb-style builds (high-end finishes, guest experience focus)
- Rural builds (septic, well, utilities, sloped land, etc.)
- Managing subs and timelines in more remote areas
We’re targeting a designer-style cabin build (~600–1,000 sqft) with premium STR features like hot tub setup, fire pit area, outdoor living, etc., so experience with hospitality-focused builds is a big plus.
I’m early in the process and currently:
- Evaluating land / finalizing a build location in Virginia
- Comparing build approaches and budgets
- Looking to connect with the right GC or design-build team before moving forward
If you're a GC or have worked with one in Virginia who really understands STR investment builds (not just traditional residential homes), I'd really appreciate a connection or referral.
Feel free to comment here or message me directly.
Thanks in advance.
