My husband, our fur baby and I enjoyed our stay. This location and house fulfilled every expectation we were hoping for when staying in Virginia (1st time to this state). Absolutely stunning view of the sunset. Quiet and secluded. The house was furnished with everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable. Directions and communication from the host was excellent! We had no complaints!

Lovely cabin on the mountain side

This is a nice secluded little cabin located high up on the hillside giving the property the privacy you may be looking for. Also located near tourist spots such as Luray Caverns if your interested in fun for the whole Family.

Anniversary trip

The property was a great spot for a long weekend getaway. It was close to the Shenandoah National Park so we went to the park to do some hiking each day we were there. The location of the cabin up on the hill was awesome. It is very private and perfect if you want to have a secluded weekend.

Beautiful mountaintop cabin

Our stay at the cabin was great. The sunrise on the deck was wonderful, the cabin itself was cozy and clean. The kitchen was well stocked with anything you’d need to cook with. The A/C worked extremely well. Just make sure you’re comfortable driving up a long gravel road with sharp turns to get to the cabin, but other than that you’ll definitely love staying here.

Wonderful mountain views

Wonderful view of the Appalachian mountain from the huge wrap around deck. Would suggest a 4x4 vehicle to get up the driveway.

Just what we needed

My wife and I stayed here with our dog and it was just what we needed. A nice cozy little place to escape from work and life. Having no internet made it that much better. My only regret was that we forgot to empty the dish washer before we left.No complaints from us....

Everything was pretty much exactly what we expected. No major issues with the cabin, nice views, quiet location & dog friendly (huge plus!)It was the perfect size, they had plenty of dishes in the kitchen & some seasonings to use. A few pans looked like they weren’t cleaned all the way but we just rewashed them before use, no big deal. Huge dvd selection was awesome! Water pressure in the shower was nice & bed was comfortable. The only thing that could have used some improvement was the lighting outside at the bottom of the steps. Super dark down there when taking the dogs out at night & all we had were our phone flashlights. But other than that, everything was good! Communication from the host was great & getting in the cabin was quick & easy. Way better experience with check in & communication than the last place I stayed! Overall great experience & I would definitely stay here again.

Cozy Hideaway with views

This was a great little spot to get away and in good proximity to fun things to do. The spacious deck was completely private and lovely for coffee, wine and watching fireflies and stars…the cabin was comfortable and made for an easy stay-we cooked nightly and relaxed inside and out-good air conditioning even for hot summer days. We loved the suggestions for places to go-Luray is a 13 minute drive and the winery 5 minutes away was wonderful with live music and food trucks on. Summer Saturday. The Mountain and seclusion made for a perfect getaway near Shenandoah National Park-definitely recommend for couples and families!

Pleasant and Private

My husband and I appreciated the privacy of the property. The cabin was very clean and everything worked well. Beds were comfy. Very spacious and well stocked with kitchen utensils, etc. My only advice to future visitors is to bring k-cups (there is a Keurig but there were no k-cups) and also not that the view is a bit obstructed in the summer months because of the trees in full bloom. No internet but cell service for ATT was decent and I was able to use my hotspot for the smart tv. Luray is about 15 minutes away and is a cute town with a coffee shop and some restaurants.

This cabin had so much potential to be a great place to stay, but it was really dirty. Bugs in the lamps, all around the kitchen sink and window. I had to clean the kitchen before feeling comfortable to use it. The oven was filthy. The bathroom floor was dirty, as well as the mildew-covered shower curtain and ceiling. We were left with one kitchen towel and no kitchen wash clothes, as well as 2 rolls of TP for the week. I had to go buy both. The deck is in need of some TLC. The fireplace doesn't appear to work. This was a mediocre stay for us. We did appreciate the large selection of DVDs, as well as clean bed linens. With some attention to details, this could be a really great place to enjoy while visiting Shenandoah NP.

Traveling with pets

The cabin sits in an amazing location but the travel up the mountain we were not fully prepared for neither car had 4 wheel drive. We managed to make it up but it was rough. Cabin has everything you need and feels like home. We had are dogs with us and they loved being able to hang out off leash. If I’m ever in that area again I’d definitely rent again.

Up on a hill

The cabin had a wonderful view, and we enjoyed sitting on the deck in the evening. The drive up was very steep, and there were many stairs to climb to get up to the cabin. I am glad we had 4-wheel drive. There is no internet in the cabin other than our phone’s hot spot, and the cell signal is not very strong. Overall, we did enjoy our stay.

Quiet and secluded

We enjoyed our little get away. The house was clean and didn’t smell as if pets had been there. The instructions were very helpful, especially for the driveway. It is in the woods, so bring bug spray if you want to sit out on the deck.

Great place to stay to hike in Shenandoah valley

Great base for a hiking weekend in Shenandoah. Note that the property has no WiFi, but we did have some cell service. The kitchen was not well stocked, but it was generally clean and tidy. I’d recommend a car with four wheel drive for getting up to the property because the drive was a bit treacherous!

I would definitely recommend that people staying at this cabin bring a 4WD car because the driveway was steep and scary! However, we loved the cabin, the patio, and the view. It was a cozy and quiet weekend getaway and we had a great time!

Cute Cabin but Listing Needs Adjusting

The cabin was decent for a trip with my dog and my hiking bestie to explore Shenandoah National Park as we were out and about all day however there are some adjustments made to the listing or notes that should be made for guests. First, it was tough to find since the address wasn’t marked on the mailbox/property so if you are arriving at night it would be tough to find. I would also recommend a vehicle with all wheel drive to get up the driveway. We did get notice that the driveway was a bit tough to get up but with the rain I was glad I had all wheel drive as my friends car without all wheel drive was spinning its wheels up the steep driveway. Be prepared to walk up stairs while unloading and loading your vehicle and deal with bugs. Additionally the water pressure in the kitchen wasn’t the best so either bring water with you or be prepared for filling a water bottle and doing dishes to take a bit (there is a dishwasher but it didn’t make sense for us to use since there were only 2 of us and we used a few dishes). Aside from that, we did enjoy being able to use a kitchen and sit on the deck with a great view while reading our books. They also have a great DVD selection!

Very comfortable and private setting. Wonderful deck. Driveway is an adventure! Good access to the park. A bit dark as many burned out lightbulbs inside and out. Would have appreciated some soap in the shower as we had to buy our own. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay.

Good location

Right in the middle of everything we wanted to do on our trip to Shenandoah NP. The property was clean and had plenty of basic essentials. The deck/deck furniture had definitely seen better days and the bottom of the steps are a little unstable, but overall we were fine. Since our stay was during the summer the trees blocked most of the view, but it was very quiet and peaceful regardless.

Secluded cabin in the woods

Location is everything! This cabin’s location was more than we expected. It is very secluded and perched up in the trees! We spent most of our time on the deck enjoying the view and listening to the birds. The interior was all that we needed. Bed was comfortable and the cabin was clean and well equipped. The only thing we felt needed improvement was that the deck floor boards were in desperate need of paint and repair and the deck furnishings were sparse and had seen better days.

Mountain Cabin Getaway

First impression of cabin was intense since the driveway is literally like climbing a mountain. Once arriving the inside of the place had like 10-15 stink bugs dead all over the floor around the place and you can tell nobody has been there to clean or check on the place for weeks probably. After having to sweep up all the bugs, i wiped down the couches with lysol wipes because there was a ton of dog hair on them and after i was done the wipes were dark brown from how dirty they were. The towels they left out for us smelled like mildew and weren’t clean. The firepit that was advertised wasn’t setup at all and overhyped. The biggest misfortune was the toilet didn’t function as normal after flushing one time we couldn’t flush the toilet again for 20-30 minutes. Seemed as though it wasn’t getting enough water supply and even after turning on the valve that was turned off it still wasn’t functioning properly. The water in the shower was decent as far as pressure but the bathroom and kitchen sinks barely got any water coming out of them. I literally wiped the counters and chairs etc because the place wasn’t cleaned up before we arrived at all. Was disappointed overall with the experience and the cleanliness of the place. Won’t plan on staying here again.
