Shenandoah Valley Home - 9 Mi to Nat'l Park!

Nice property, fun decor, our daughters enjoyed exploring all the rooms and also using the provided wood for a fire in the fire pit outside. We found it convenient for hiking in the north section of Shenandoah National Park. Unfortunately, communication was non-existent. I had a question after we left (accidentally left a muffin baking pan behind that could be a problem for future guests because it leaks - I use paper cupcake liners so not a problem for me) and never heard back from either contact I sent an email to. I expected at least a thank-you for the warning about the leak, before their oven got dripped on. The grab supports for the claw foot tub (neat bathroom decor!) were placed too high/far away to help unless you're over 6' tall (I'm 5'10). They have signs warning not to hold onto the pipes, but they're the only thing close enough for most people to reach. I was surprised to discover that owners apparently interested in hunting use scented laundry detergent on all linens. Don't they realize that the strong scents used in most laundry products these days will rub off on anything in contact with the washed item? No hoping skittish wildlife will come close for photography after sitting on the bed unless you're downwind. I'm allergic to fragrances but fortunately the weather was nice enough to open up windows and I had my own pillow and towel so I was able to minimize the problem. And I know to ask in the future.

The house was very unique and spacious, loved the location, would definitely stay again.

Water was not coming properly. Rooms were not very clean.

If you are a fan of collectibles - this is the right place for you! It was a bit busy for my taste as I am a fan of simple decor. It is definitely not kid nor disability friendly but it is fun to explore if you are a fan of.. collectibles :) The outdoor patio and firepit area made our stay though and we had a wonderful time cooking s'mores and spending family time together

This cabin is amazing! Very authentic, mountain cabin and a more modern basement for variety. We loved it! Only issues were minor, such as low water pressure, especially when more than one of us was showering, no hot water in the downstairs shower, and ants on the kitchen counter, but no biggies, we still loved it and would do it again! Hopefully we’ll get back someday!

Very nice and great location.

Home is very personable, and the property is gorgeous. 2nd time here and we'll be back!

The property is as advertised, the living area is quite spacious. It is a large cabin with a lot of decoration and collectibles inside, telling stories of mountaineering, hunting, diving and cave research. The location is on the North-Eastern edge of the George Washington National Forest. Some hiking trails along the Fort Valley are very close by, you can start right at the property. There are two fire pits and a gas grill outside, plenty of wood as well. An indoor fireplace would have been nice, as we stayed there in winter.

It was a lovely cabin ,so much to see, it was Iike staying in a museum. Saw deer every day. Very convenient to everywhere we wanted to go. We would definitely book this cabin again.

Fun cabin on beautiful property that was .10 miles from the Buzzard Rock trail. Grandkids loved the “dance party” shower with lights & music. AT&T customers had some internet access, Verizon customers had none. A ton of TV’s but they did not work without internet. Directions on getting each device to work would be helpful. We actually had a great time playing games & playing outside. We literally did not want to leave. Thank you for a great place to relax & reconnect as a family. We would rent again!

Overall, this was a spacious and interesting house. The location was great and the grounds were pretty with a trail and plenty of bird watching available. There were plenty of spices, and equipment in the kitchen was good. Loved the Belgian waffle machine and the griddle. The music cassettes and CDs were fantastic, and we wished we'd had brought a record player! The wifi password given was wrong, but we found it on the modem in the house. Additionally, using the TVs was a challenge because none of the TVs were hooked up properly.
