The Cowboy Cabin is one of two well sound-proofed duplex cabins that share a wraparound porch. The cabin is dog-friendly, with a maximum of two dogs allowed. For the safety of our farm animals and your pets, we kindly ask that all dogs remain on a leash while on the property.

Inside, the cabin features one bedroom with a queen bed and one bathroom with a shower and jacuzzi tub. Guests will also enjoy a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable dining and living areas, flat-screen cable TV, and Wi-Fi. Linens and kitchenware are provided. Both cabins offer a porch with rocking chairs and stunning views of the property, as well as access to a shared outdoor area with a fire pit and gas grill. Propane and firewood are provided.

River's Bend Ranch is a family-owned guest ranch and venue, that sits on over 250 beautiful acres nestled between the Blue Ridge Mountains and the George Washington National Forest. With a half mile of shoreline on the Shenandoah River and 360-degree mountain views, RBR offers a perfect setting for family vacations, reunions, weddings, retreats, or just a quiet weekend getaway. We are conveniently located near the Luray Caverns, Skyline Drive, the quaint town of Luray, hiking spots, kayaking and canoe rentals, and much more. RBR offers access to activities for all tastes and ages.

On the ranch, guests can enjoy fishing, birding, and walking trails. Trail rides along our piece of the Shenandoah's South Fork are available to guests and the general public and can accommodate any riding ability. Families especially enjoy visiting our friendly farm animals, including Longhorn steers, sheep, chickens, cows, horses, and the many barn cats that roam the farm.

Guests also have access to fresh farm products available for sale on site! We offer organic, free-range eggs and premium, homegrown Wagyu beef that is grass-fed, pasture-raised, and pesticide-free, perfect for grilling and enjoying a true farm-to-table meal!

For your safety, please check in with one of our staff members before walking down to the river.

    We had a wonderful time at this absolutely beautiful property. Peaceful, unbelievable views , very friendly and accommodating people and overall just an absolutely wonderful experience. The walk down to the river is so fun, and the mountain sunsets and sunrises breathtaking.It's just a short scenic drive to town - the perfect hideaway in the beautiful mountains!Don't forget to buy some cuts of steak raised right on their farm to cook on the grills they provide! Or roast some s'mores over the fire pit. Highly recommend and will most definitely be back!

    Loved that this was a pet friendly cabin. The longhorns were amazing to wake up to. Short walk down to the stables to see the horses and go horseback riding.

    Great views, relaxing property, and the hosts are very nice. Cabins are perfect for exploring and hiking in the area, or you can take relaxing walks on the property! Close to Luray and other attractions in the area! Hope to be back in the future.

    The property is absolutely beautiful! We thoroughly enjoyed watching the horses, cattle, and deer in the multiple pastures. The view of the mountains was such a joy and the entire ranch is well maintained and peaceful. We had access to the river and enjoyed quiet walks. The staff were so kind and willing to share information on local attractions. Thanks so much!! to share information about local attractions.

    Waking up to a beautiful sunrise, having a long quiet time on the porch overlooking the rolling green hills...so refreshing! I loved watching the animals roam the fields, and seeing the horses gallop around was wonderful. The cabin was great, the bed had a good mattress, the furnishings were comfortable. I am going to recommend Rivers Bend Ranch to my friends!

    My husband and I were tired after driving through DC rush hour, so we looked forward to settling into the cabin for the night. So when we drove to the parking area by our cabin, we were pleasantly surprised by four large longhorns greeting us on the other side of the wire fence. I dismissed my exhaustion as I took in the breathtaking landscape, which consisted of an expansive, rolling pasture that was a much-needed sight for city-dwellers like us. On our first evening, Caroline, the wonderful lady who was very helpful with our stay, suggested walking to the nearby barn, where a new baby lamb had just been born earlier that day. We were delighted to see the other ranch animals, including a sweet cat and two dogs. The following morning, we got up early enough to drink our hot coffee on the porch while watching the sun rise over the distant Shenandoah Mountains. Later that day, I made reservations for my husband and me to follow our guide, Ben, on an hour-long trail ride to the river, which was incredible. Ben's laid-back persona made the ride enjoyable, especially since my husband and I haven't ridden horses in years. The reason for our weekend getaway was to explore the nearby Luray Caverns, which we did later that afternoon. We didn't expect our relaxing accommodations at River Bend to be the reason for wanting to come back in the future.
