Fish Trap cabin on the Shenandoah River

Host was welcoming. House was clean and relaxing. Wonderful experience. Would highly recommend

Great cabin, everything was in good condition. The location is fantastic, steps away from the river.

We stayed for a couple of days over the holidays. The property was beautiful and clean and the hosts were extremely responsive and helpful. We already booked another trip! The views of the river were amazing. Very peaceful place to get some rest and recovery. Highly recommend!

We had a perfect weekend at this riverside gem! The location is stunning, right on the water with beautiful views and total peace and quiet. The cabin was immaculate, cozy, and had everything we needed. We loved the fire pit and direct river access. The host was communicative and helpful. It's the ideal spot to unwind and connect with nature. We can't wait to come back!

Clean, simple, perfect location. Quiet and private.

This was the perfect trip. The cabin is 30 minutes away from Skyline drive and about 16 minutes away from shopping and other activities like Luray Caverns. Its a lovely town and the hosts were very good with communication. There were bugs but you are in the woods and you shouldnt go to the woods without expecting some wildlife. Also great fiahing spot for redeye and bass. Also was able to bring my dog which was a bonus. I will definitely be back.

We love the fish trap & stay several times each year! Top motch location, setting & hosts!

Fantastic property! The house is beautiful and such a pretty setting!

What a great place. The home was clean and had plenty of the essentials to get us going upon our arrival. Everyone was responsive to our questions to prepare for arrival. The home is beautiful in an amazing location on the river. We had a family of ducks visit us most mornings. We were able to hike in Shenandoah National Park every morning and found many wineries to quench our thirst on the way back to bbq and soak in the hotutb every day.We cant wait to return soon.

This place was nice, clean and spacious for us. We didn't arrive until 11pm, and followed the GPS instructions that the owner emailed with our Agreement. The directions took us up a hill to a vacant lot that was private property! It was like a scene out of a horror movie, like wrong turn! However we eventually found the property and was glad someone had came by to start the hot tub, but they left the keys on the door, and left the lights in the storage room on, making us think someone was in the house, but nobody. After we unpacked and settled in, it was cozy. Couldn't get the gas fireplace to start so we waited until morning to call Kevin, our maintenance help who directed us how to use it, he was great! In the morning the house was beautiful. Didn't look as dark and creepy as it did a night time. I think if they put up some stringed lights around the deck it would make the home feel cozier. Firepit/river was in close proximity, large ground if you have pets that like to run around, but we have little kids so didn't use a lot of outdoor space. Also too cold to use canoe, but would've been fun for kids since we did do some fishing, but caught nothing. Kids were too afraid to sleep apart from us so we all huddled in one bedroom. Only one bad thing is the hot tub took forever to heat up. It actually never did, we had to boil water to get some warmth in there. It wasn't until the end of our second night that we finally were able to use it. By then it was already close to check, so we did to use it one last time, so by the 3rd day it was finally hot. The water felt oily and a bit grimy. Likely well water, so its expected. Jets didn't work in hot tub, jets in the tub in the house also did not work. Kids would've loved it. Overall, our stay was pleasant. The house is fully equipped with all your kitchen needs, extra blankets, and sleeping/lounging gear. We also found a HUGE spider in the laundry room, about the palm size of my 4 yr old. Kids loved it but freaked out at the same time. We made good memories. I would recommend staying here. Home has starter package for all your needs, laundry detergent, dish soap, toilet paper, napkins, etc. Everything I packed, I took back home, so just FYI, to lighten your load, they do have the necessities to start you off. We didn't stay long and had little ones so didn't use much. Just once trash bag too. Also took our trash home to trash. Also, one last bit, the firewood is about 150 yards from the firepit so expect to get your steps in! Enjoy if you plan to stay at Fish Trap.

Our family spent a long weekend at Fish Trap and couldn’t have had a better time. The location is ideal and the property is well maintained, extra clean and very comfortable. We loved the fire pit and hot tub, took the canoe out for a try, and spent a morning fishing at Bealers Ferry Pond, which is a few minutes away. Would highly recommend.

We love the fish trap - this place is top notch!

Exactly as advertised!! Will definitely book again. Thanks so much!

Overall the property is as described, however the cleanliness needs a bit of work. Spider webs all inside the house , dust so thick in some places we could write our names . The hot tub water had a green hue and obvious dirt in the bottom . Grill was left dirty from prior use , canoes and life jackets had obviously not been cleaned in a very long time .

It was a perfect for our quick family get away to celebrate my mom’s birthday. The view is amazing. Would recommend bringing your own bed pillows if your picky 😜

My three sisters and our sister-in-law enjoyed a long weekend at beautiful fish trap cabin. My sister-in-law is a bird watcher and we could not believe how many birds we saw in the yard and near the river. This picturesque cabin was the perfect place to stay and relax and go into Shenandoah national park and enjoy each other‘s company with plenty of space to spread out and do art and cook and relax. Cabin was very clean. The Wi-Fi is rather sketchy and so do not expect the ability to stream any movies but perfect for enjoying the company of family or friends.

We stay here a few times each year. Cant say enough good things
