Secluded Mountain Retreat - Cozy Cabin on 8 Private Acres Near Shenandoah
The mountains are calling...and you must go! Escape to the serenity of the mountains to experience the magic of Virginia’s natural beauty and relax in our rustic cabin with modern comforts. Enjoy our ever-changing forest views from our large, sunny windows overlooking almost 8 private acres at the base of Saddleback Mountain. Reconnect with those you love and with nature in this open cabin, and recharge on the screened-in porch after a fun-filled or relaxing day. Stay inside and enjoy the peaceful views, head outside for fresh air, or adventure out to explore some of the fantastic outdoor and indoor activities nearby. Be sure to bring marshmallows to roast around the campfire at the end of the day.
Muir Intentions got its name as a play on words combining "pure intentions" with John Muir’s philosophy of connecting with, enjoying, and taking care of nature. We are happiest when we are one with nature, and our “intentions” when purchasing this cabin were to embrace the great outdoors and strengthen our connections with loved ones. We had "Muir Intentions" with this cabin, and we hope you enjoy nature here as much as we do.
We are detail oriented hosts who strive to make your stay enjoyable! We are established super hosts on another platform and look forward to getting started with VRBO to become premier hosts.

Important Notes:
Weather Considerations: Mountain weather can be unpredictable. We do not offer weather-related refunds but will assist with rescheduling when possible.
Driveway & Vehicle Recommendations: The driveway is slightly uphill with rocks and may be better suited for AWD or 4WD vehicles in snowy conditions.
Rustic Nature of the Cabin: As this is a cabin in the woods, occasional encounters with bugs or wildlife are possible. Please help minimize this by storing food properly and cleaning up spills.
Local Shopping: The closest small grocery and convenience stores are about 6.5 miles away, and the nearest Walmart is a 20-minute drive, so plan accordingly.
Kitchen Size: The smaller oven can accommodate a standard cookie sheet sideways and works well for most meals, but plan accordingly if bringing large items.
Appliances & Amenities: While we strive to maintain everything in working order, occasional malfunctions can happen. We will service and restore any issues as quickly as possible but do not provide rental concessions for downtime.
