The Drive
The one mile dirt road to get to our cabin is not state owned. It’s not steep, but it is full of potholes. Slow and steady will get you to the cabin. You do not need a truck or 4 wheel drive. HOWEVER- months where snow is in the forecast will require 4 wheel drive, as we do not know when or if someone will be able to plow. Parking is unlimited.

sq ft home, and 3 acres of wooded property

Security
For the security of our guests and the safety of our home, Bluebird Hill Cabin is equipped with three security cameras. One camera is dedicated to capturing activity at the front door, another is positioned to monitor the driveway, and the third is located on the basement porch, focusing on the door.
Most importantly, no cameras are placed inside the house, underscoring our strong commitment to prioritizing both your safety and privacy.

Pets

preventative medicine will be considered

• Large and small crate, dog beds and bowls provided
• NOTE: $100 per pet charge if you neglect to inform us that you
are bringing a pup along

So Much to Do
• Canoe/ Kayak/ Raft – Do you know Front Royal is the Canoe
Capital of Virginia! Rent or bring your own.
• Skyline Drive- Hiking and biking is great, but you can also just
DRIVE. Lots of places to stop and picnic.
• Stargaze- The night sky comes alive at our cabin in the woods.
• Sit and Stare- The Mountain View is ever changing with the
weather and seasons. It is always a good time to sit and stare. We
do not have water access, but we have a great view of the
Shenandoah River in late fall and winter. You can hear the water
flowing from the cabin.
• Fire pit with wood provided- Nothing like a good Kumbaya at the
end of a perfect day.
• Wine- Lots of wineries within 30-40 minutes of the cabin.
• Beer- Some breweries are in the area and more are popping up
yearly.
• Hike / Bike- Skyline drive, Shenandoah State Park and Andy Guest
State Park are short drives away.
• Dinosaurs- Dinosaur Land. A silly destination for the young dino
fan.
• History- Check out the digital guidebook
• Golf- Our digital guidebook has personal notes on our favorite
courses. $-$$$.
• Bird watching- When the bears are napping, we will leave you
some bird seed. Lots of marked bird watching trails are close by.
• Caverns- The simplistic Skyline Caverns is close by. The larger and
more colorful Luray Caverns is approximately 30-40 minutes.
• Absolutely Nothing- You can do everything or nothing at all. Your
vacation, your choice.

Noteworthy stuff
• No traffic noise, no street lights. Come to relax with family, friends
and nature.
This is not a typical rental. It is owner managed and has
everything you will need to call it home for the short time you are
here.
• It may seem a world away, but our cabin is really very close to
everything. 15-30 minutes away from Skyline Drive, wineries,
caverns, hiking, biking, golf, antiquing, history, festivals and so
much more.

    WOW! That spectacular view!!! We had THE best time! And in the dead of winter!!!! The home is spacious and perfectly decorated with a very well equipped kitchen…um, hello coffee bar! Plenty of games to keep you occupied if stuck inside like we were, and of course there were plenty of viewing/streaming options! If it were nicer out, the hosts have plenty of recommendations for things to do around the area! Did I mention the incredible view of the river/mountains??? Also the stars put on a show at night! Book it now, you’ll be so happy you did. The hosts are kind, responsive, and helpful!!!

    10/10 Hosts have paid great attention to details making our week long stay over Christmas fabulous. We cooked/grilled most meals and always had what we needed. Lots of space for everyone. Great games, fire pit and areas to be together and relax. And the VIEWS!! We visited both Shenandoah NP and Shenandoah River SP multiple times. The hosts were great at making sure we were all good throughout the week. Hoping to be back some day.

    Our group had a great time! The host was very easy to get ahold of using the app and was very accommodating for letting our extra fur babies stay. The house was incredible and provided all of the amenities you could think of. We were quite impressed! The firepit was awesome along with the views of the blue ridge mountains in the background. We will definitely keep this house in mind for future visits. Thank you so much!

    Absolutely perfect for our group of three couples! From the moment we arrived, we couldn't stop talking about how much we want to return. Bluebird Hill Cabin was secluded enough that we could enjoy the sights and sounds of nature, but still only 15 minutes away from town where we could pick up groceries and explore Front Royal's main street. It had everything we needed: linens and sheets included, fully stocked kitchen so we could prepare our meals, great wifi, and so much more! The hosts were super friendly and responsive as we prepared for our trip. We can't wait to return!

    The Bluebird Hill cabin was perfect for our family; mom, two adult children and spouses! The listing didn't even do it justice, it was more immaculate and beautiful than the pictures! We hiked, visited a winery, cooked great meals in the gourmet kitchen and played games and shared laughs late into the night! The three master suites allowed us all to have our space too! We cannot wait to return! It was the perfect long weekend getaway!

    What an amazing stay. This cabin is so lovingly well thought out, and it felt like home for our long weekend stay. We had everything we needed to cook lovely meals in the kitchen. The beds were wonderfully comfortable. The screened-in porch was lovely for dinner al fresco. We loved watching and listening to ALL the birds, and you can even hear the river gurgling below. The cabin provides privacy and comfort; however, it is just a short drive from all the region has to offer. Added bonus: this cabin was so clean and tidy, super clean and tidy. Thank you so much!
