Large Riverfront Cabin! Hot Tub, Sun room/Game Room Close to LurayCaverns

Great value - had more beds than we needed; was on the river (with a canoe!); hot tub; close to Luray and Shenandoah; had TV and games for when it rained; and even paint to decorate rocks. Bit of a wasp issue, but we worked around it.

Thoroughly enjoyed some peace and quiet next to the river and under some incredibly dark skies. The cabin was comfortable. Unlike some of the other reviews, I had zero issues with the WiFi, and the gravel road was in excellent condition. This is a quiet, mostly private, and peaceful retreat that’s surrounded by nature. Enjoy a fire outside while listening to the river and watching the sunset over the ridge, then wake up in the morning and sip coffee next to the river while watching the herons and ducks.

Lovely location! Quiet. Sitting in the hot tub with river view is terrific

Cabin was older, needed some updating. The tv and internet service went in and out. Lots of spiders, which I don’t mind but someone else may not be comfortable with . Parts of road very bumpy. The grounds were very pretty.

We loved the house! Lots of things to do inside. The kitchen was fully stocked and just the right size. We loved just relaxing on the porch. There was a lot of room for the dog to run outside. The hot tub was so relaxing, and the river is so close. We loved that it’s not near anything. It’s a really wonderful location!

Great location and great time.

Very poor reception for our Cell phones. Went into town when we had to make a call so no big deal

The property was in a very nice location. We enjoyed floating on the river, canoeing, fishing and the hot tub. We had everything we needed for our stay. The only issue we encountered were wasps, but the owner came and sprayed under the deck.

Perfect river getaway! The fishing was incredible, the cabin was clean and cozy, and the peaceful setting made it easy to relax and recharge.

The house was very clean, the location was great, and we had a wonderful vacation. The Starlink internet didn’t work in the house so we eventually bought a dvd player at the nearby Walmart and watched movies due to being unable to stream. Otherwise everything was perfect! It wasn’t the worst thing to be a bit disconnected, but as the description mentions don’t plan on working or streaming in the house.

This was our third time staying at The Jive and it never disappoints. We love everything about it! Already looking forward to booking our next stay!

We had a great time relaxing by the beautiful river! Painting rocks was a bonus too. This place is a gem! Owner was very responsive to any issues we had. We will be back!

Great stay, right on the river and quiet

It was great and cozy and relaxing

Great spot with river in backyard. We loved the hot tub and having a fire pit. The loft space gave our kids enough room to each have their own bed. Unfortunately the large sunroom we were looking forward to using was not sealed and wasps got in, even though we didn’t open the doors or windows. The single bed upstairs needs a new mattress, and the upstairs powder room is hard to use because of the sloped ceiling.Host was very responsive when we asked for more towels and brought them right away (there were only 4 and we had 5 people).

Nice well equipped cabin with plenty of room. The game room was a plus, we played a lot of ping pong. The WiFi was good. Nice direct view of the river. I would suggest maybe update the mattresses and pillows for the first two beds on the loft floor. The master bed is good, but we decided to sleep upstairs with our daughter during the night. Also, maybe update the door sealing for the back doors to keep wasps out. We’ve stayed at the River’s edge cabin before, but found the Jive better in terms of space/layout and amenities. The half bathroom is also a plus. I would stay again. Thank you for a great stay!

Clean and right on the water. Enjoyed the stay, would definitely come back.

Fantastic riverfront cabin with a lot of space indoors and out. Very clean, but it is a rustic cabin setting. Perhaps the most unique and fun feature is hundreds of river rocks painted by the guests in all sorts of ways, displayed inside and outside, was fun to add to the collection with the paints and brushes supplied. Also note that there is a larger sister cabin nearby but about 50 yds. away.

A wonderful place…so peaceful and just perfect for a quiet weekend to relax. Cute winery just down the road. River view was beautiful. Everything in top shape- loved the hot tub.

Our family enjoyed our stay at this cozy cabin by the river! Very relaxing and a beautiful location!

This is a great cabin on the river. Easy, level walk to the river. Very clean and comfortable cabin. We will stay here again!

The house was perfect! The river was so pretty! We enjoyed everything. Perfect getaway for two moms needing a break. Definitely would go again and bring the kids.

This was our second time staying at The Jive and loved it just as much as we did the first time we stayed there 4 years ago! Definitely coming back next year!

We found the cabin, the yard and the river access to be amazing. We all had a wonderful time from the cozy furnishings to the sun room, the deck, and the hot tub. Although we didn't take advantage of all activities offered (ie. rock painting, ping pong, canoe, corn hole, etc.) we still had a great time playing with the girls (four legged kind) in the spacious yard and river. We also found it convenient to the park and Luray.

What a beautiful cabin! The pictures are accurate, and there are many extras with this cabin. The sun porch contains a Foosball table, a ping pong table, tables and chairs, and a cupboard with paints and brushes so guests can contribute to the growing collection of painted rocks. (You have to see it to believe it!) Outside, in addition to the deck, there is a hot tub, a fire ring, and a canoe! And the large backyard ends at the beautiful Shenandoah river. This is truly a waterfront cabin! Our only disappointment was we found no kleenex in the cabin, only one roll of paper towels, only two rolls of toilet paper, and no matches. Our first night we couldn't light the charcoal grill or a campfire, because we didn’t bring matches. Whoops! Our only other disappointment was spotty WiFi. The Roku TV is useless at times when the WiFi signal is weak. It was just me and my wife and out little dog on this long weekend getaway. This would be a great cabin for a family with kids, as the spiral stearcase leads to a loft with three extra beds and a powder room.

Nice cabin filled with vacation history. Very nice section of the river to swim and enjoy. Lots of wildlife to see. Cozy home with a beautiful stone fireplace and a all seasons room to enjoy your meal and see the outdoors. We wished there was more outdoor seating in the shade, maybe some Adirondack chairs to be a little closer to the water. Not to take away that is was a wonderful place to stay!

We slept

Nice cabin, directly riverfront. Check-in was super easy. Wifi works good outside or up stairs. Cabin is rustic but comfortable. Host is very responsive and helpful. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
