Bear Valley - Riverfront, Starlink WiFi & Hot Tub

The cabin is amazing.

Beautiful views

Cozy Cabin with all essentials needed for cooking and sleeping, hot tub was a great experience, the river view was beautiful just a heads up, it is very shallow in front of cabin and might need water shoes since there is a lot of rock. Host was great with giving information.

Sweet location, clean interior and nicely stocked kitchen (utensils, dishes etc). Grill worked well. Locks a bit of a challenge due to door fit. We were very comfortable and enjoyed the peace and beauty.

House itself was clean and nice. Only minus was the door that was difficult to close and lock. River access and firepit by river were amazing! No umbrella as pictured si couldnt sit outside unless in heat/direct sun. Lower deck/porch really disappointing because lights didn't work and large amount of spider webs over all the furniture. Couldn't sit outside at night unless at firepit. Overall the point of the trip was the river and that did not dissapoint.

Good location in the river the home is in need of repairs and jacuzzi get empty on the second day, constant drip to the lower deck no mops or buckets to clean from previous Dog in the house, bathroom toilets feels it’s coming off the floor, if the house was not on the river would had received a one start

Nice place with a great view of the river. I wish it had a kayak because the canoes were to heavy for me to move.

There were several issues with this property. On our day of check-in as we were driving to the destination, we got a text stating the stove was broken and would not be working there for our stay. The oven was broken the stove top worked however we had already purchased all of our food that we had planned to use during the stay so this was a huge inconvenience. They said they could bring us a toaster oven, that was not useful at all. There’s a balcony off of the master suite that could not be utilized because the boards were so rotten. I felt like I was gonna fall through if I stepped out there for too long. It was a lot of nails that were popped up on the steps which I tripped on. The pictures in the advertisement showed an umbrella to be used, there was no umbrella so we could not utilize the deck up top during the daytime because of the heat in the sun. The bottom deck, we could only use half of it because the hot tub was leaking continually onto the bottom deck. The wood was all the way up by the house and the fire pit was all the way down by the water so we had to trudge all the firewood from the house down to the fire pit. Which would’ve not been an issue if it wasn’t for the wagon that was there to use all four tires being flat and shredded so we couldn’t even use the wagon. Even though this is not considered an expensive rental I still feel like we paid way too much.

Great river access. We didn't realize until the evening of the second day that the oven did not work. We texted about the oven and we got a response that maintenance would be contacted. We tried to use the BBQ, but it was gross and rusty. We wanted to use the toaster but it was full of bugs! After 24 hours of no response we decided to leave. We lost half of our vacation time and were refunded less than half of the cost. Is there any accountability? We are not happy with Shenandoah Rentals.

Our stay was exactly what the doctor ordered. My partner and I were looking for a nice waterfront getaway house for the weekend and this place delivered. Only wish we could have stayed a little longer! Perfect for a couple or small family, the house had some nice perks. The outdoor decks were nice for relaxing and dinning. We didn't get a chance to use the hot tube but it did look inviting. We did put the canoes to good use though and enjoyed the riverside fire pit at night. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others. Thank you for your hospitality.

We enjoyed our quick little getaway.

A perfect but simple place for a quiet weekend getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was very peaceful and quiet. Lots of wildlife and the view of the Shenandoah Valley River was amazing. Would definitely stay here again.

Everything you would want for a stay in the mountains!

Beautiful place, perfect for a quiet family getaway! Property manager was super responsive. Will love to stay again.

We married at this very house in 2014. We went back with our 3 kids this trip to celebrate 10 years. There were some similarities and some glaring differences, unfortunately. The disappointments we had were, that there were ants indoors, immediately. If you leave food in the counters for longer than one hour, ants had taken to them. The coffee pot shattered upon first use. The hot tub was not functional, showing a maintenance symbol upon first use. The grass was very, very long upon arrival and then randomly cut leaving wet grass we had to clean off our kids and dog constantly. We did air some of these concerns to the house staff during our visit but also telling them not to fix them. Our reasoning was we do not go on vacation to constantly have maintenance in and out during out stay. What is done is done. They also offered a a response, without remorse or realization that we perhaps didn't get what he paid for. Overall, We will not return. This house as a wonderful place to be married in 2014, right under to porch in a rainstorm. It will hold those memories, thankfully.

My husband and father spent time on the river fly fishing and making memories. The neighbors were friendly and inviting. Our truck’s water pump went out and one neighbor brought tools over to help. I was a little apprehensive about getting this place since I the rental agreement wasn’t available on the listing and didn’t really agree on having to pay for “extra people” (one person is included in the stay, but if you’re traveling with your spouse, you’ll pay extra for them) since it was me and my husband, but we were last minute traveling and this was our best option. Nonetheless, we absolutely loved the place and will come back again. The hot tub was the perfect touch to our mornings. Our dogs were right at home and enjoyed the water too. There were seasonings and basic cookware in the kitchen but the stores are only 20 mins away if you need anything. We’ll stay longer next time we’re in town!

Overall, the property was cozy and quality. The only things that could have gone better would be the gas grill was very greasy so it turned into an open flame but I turned off the gas, pulled off my steaks, and closed the lid, problem solved. When we put our food on the counter the night we got there ants showed up almost immedi. ately
