Our stay was amazing! We used it as a base to go see many things in the area, so we weren't actually at the property for extended times. The hostess gave us suggestions for a place to eat and it hit us in all the right spots. Would stay with her again if we were in the area. It was good to know that at the end of a day of sight seeing, we had a warm, hospitable, safe and comfortable place to spend the night.
Property was clean and in a quiet neighborhood.
Dark and dingy. No a/c in the bedroom. Can't shave with bathroom lighting. Didn't have contact phone number for host.
We stayed here a little over a month. When we arrived, we were met by the owner who showed us the heater and provided us with the keys. The cottage sits across the owner's home, but they are not obtrusive, and you have total freedom and privacy. What a deal this place is! The cottage is very, very clean and smelled delightful. We found that the listing is very accurate with their pictures. The lighting (a little dark, but cozy) and decor in the pictures is exact. Lots of flower arrangements and decorations to cheer it up.. Also, the wi-fi is super fast and stable. The TV is a nice size and modern. The bed is very comfortable. The little porch was not used by us because it was cold when we were there.. When you walk the property, you can see the mountains and the fall leaves on the trees which create an amazing picture. There is lots of room to walk the dog and enjoy the scenery. We saw tons of deer, a fox, an eagle and countless rainbows. The owner responds very quickly when anything is needed which we really appreciated. The towels and sheets are basic and fit the cost of the cottage. The appliances are functional. No dishwasher. Very convenient location to explore the area. We went to Shenandoah National Park often. It is very close (23 mins). We also went to the Massanutten Mountains and did the Storybook Trail and Lion's Tale. Walked the Luray Hawksbill Greenway often. You can buy Apple Butter nearby. More than anything, we loved watching the sunsets and sunrises while walking the property.
Very quiet, beautiful view of mountains. Very good accommodations.
The property was clean, well stocked and the check in was easy. We used the internet for work and had no issues with the signal. Our dog enjoyed walking through the fields and staring at the cows! We would rent this property again.
Very central to Shenandoah National Park. Great host and comfortable cabin.
My wife and I enjoyed the stay at this property. It is simple, comfortable and quaint. We stayed for a full work and worked remotely from the property in that time so Wifi was good and we got out to enjoy the caverns, horseback riding, or just driving down skyline drive for the views for a couple hours a day. We brought our dog as well who loved being able to run free in the fields by the property. I would stay here again.
We enjoyed our stay here very much. Owners were very friendly, responsive, and easy to work with. Conveniently located to lots of great hiking while being away from the touristy areas.
We were ready for some quiet down time. It was very comfortable, quiet and rural. Also close to the area attractions. Owner is very nice. Her son came over to help with a wifi problem (it was my phone's fault [turn off random MAC address]). Would gladly stay there again!
