Everything was fine for a short 3 day stay. Would have like the TV in the family room instead of the bedroom. Kitchen was fully stocked, which was super nice as I love to cook.
We stayed for one night while we were in Luray for the weekend. Overall, we found it comfy for our one night in Luray. Beautiful view of mountains, close to the water. We traveled with our two kids (5 and 2). It might be a little small to come back with the family - only because there is just one bedroom.
Very comfortable.
We spent one night on a family road trip through Virginia and Tennessee. Location is great for Luray Caverns and a gorgeous drive. The site is so quiet, and the fenced yard was perfect for a night around the fire pit with our kids and dog. Checkin was easy and the bed was REALLY comfortable! Everything was clean enough, although the bathroom could use a deep clean. Great first night of vacation for our family.
Beautifully landscaped, equipped with everything we needed and a real plus to have a nice fenced in yard where we could hang out with our pups and chill.
Water was brown and we decided not to shower. Bathroom had mold and loose molding showing mildew. No TV and minimal wi-fi.
The perfect stay to disconnect from technology!! We had a wonderful stay and would definitely stay again if we come back. House has all the basics you need. So nice having a fenced yard for dogs! It is a decent drive to get the Shenandoah and other nearby activities. Distance isn’t far, but the roads are steep and curvy, so slow driving takes longer to get around.
King size bed, fenced yard for our dog, and good mid-week price are what made us choose this place for a short get away. It really suited our needs and we'll be back! Bed was comfortable. House was clean, nicely decorated, and felt welcoming. Could not get WiFi to work, but our cell phone reception was fine.
The home was very comfortable and accommodating. The scenery was lovely and the home was well situated. We were maybe 20 minutes from the national park and the ride into and out of the park was so pretty. It was close to local shops as well. We stayed with our dog and toddler and everyone seemed to enjoy their stay.
The cabin is well taken care off, everything you can think of is provided. The WiFi was strong enough for streaming and other needs. The cabin is conveniently located within a short drive to both, Shenandoah National park and GWTJ National forest. Communication with the manager/owner was excellent. The road leading to the house was all uphill and extremely bumpy, but we didn’t have any issues getting in and out, but smth to keep in mind for a rainy day. Overall, very positive experience.
