Jennie is as lightning quick with her responses to questions, and super thoughtful in all aspects- communications, proving little s’mores kits as a treat, having all the toys needed for fun on the river. By far our best VRBO experience… so pleased to have spent an extended vacation in their home
This house is exceptionally well-stocked and furnished. The kitchen has everything you need to cook for a large group. It has plenty of beds, folding lawn chairs and a basement loaded with games in case you get a rainy day. Everything is in great working order. Would highly recommend this to a group of adults or families looking for a fun weekend in the outdoors.
Everything was clean and well thought out. Kitchen was beautifully stocked. The house and yard were peaceful and lovely. Lots of activities inside and out to keep us happy. A family of deer ate right off the deck every morning and evening. The owners were kind and responsive and we would definitely recommend!
The place was great, the view was fantastic. Our family had a great time experiencing the river - fishing, kayaking, swimming. Short drive to charming downtown Luray.
This was our first multi family vacation. 3 generations. My husband had wanted to fish. Due to recent back issues that are very severe he was unable to navigate to the waters edge. It was a very steep access road and our car was not able to drive down it. He never was able to get down their. We are both in our 60’s. I did make it down myself but couldn’t return again. My Grandkids and Daughter/Son in law were able to enjoy the fishing, kayaking and paddle boarding. The game room downstairs was a real hit as well. I enjoyed feeding the birds, sitting on the porch, and watching for deer. The only complaint I have was the grass was so high. Both property’s on either side were mowed but it appeared ours had not. It rained a few days while we stayed and each time I took the dog out I got my feet soaked in high grass. All and all we had a great family time. I was grateful I could bring my 16 1/2 year old Dachaund for this trip as well. Jenni and Hap were very helpful and very prompt with returning all messages. This was our first VRBO vacation. It won’t be our last.
This property is absolutely beautiful. You can get right in the river from the property and tube down quite a ways. Teens had a blast in the game room and there are 3 bathrooms, which is AMAZING!
Property was nice, bit of walk to river, for little ones. Home was clean, little dated, but it is a river house. Kitchen was well supplied with utensils! The tubes provided did not have netting, thus do not work for smaller kids, they fall out. Kayak was not there, so used canoes, one took on water, useable, not comfortable. All in all nice, but cost to stay, proximity to river, and aged interior design, we would not come back. Do think perfect for family with older children, as basement is well equipped with games we did not utilize, and would make for a fun party room.
I would recommend this property to anyone who likes the peace and quiet of the outdoors ver relaxing atmosphere the property owner was very prompt when responding to us overall awesome experience ???????????????
This house was the perfect spot for a short family vacation! House was comfortable, clean, and had an extremely well stocked kitchen. We enjoyed taking the canoe out on the river, and seeing deer and bunnies from the house. The game room was a great bonus as well, offering screen free indoor fun when it rained. A perfect stay all around, thank you!
Loved our stay. House was beautiful. Had all we needed and more. Nice lazy river access. Fish were biting too..
