We love this cabin! Weâve been coming to Luray for 7 years now and have stayed in this cabin 5 of the 7 years. Its seclusion, riverfront, great fishing and quiet peacefulness is perfect!
Everything was easy: check in, temperature control, cooking, resting, and finding activities. Too cold for canoeing unfortunately, but we loved the view of the river nonetheless! Great for mountain goer's of all experience levels.
We had a wonderful time relaxing and unplugging at this adorable cabin. The views were beautiful and the cabin was very clean. We were near lots of hiking trails but yet close enough to town for restaurants and shops.
This was our Christmas gift to each other and my husband and I (and our dog!) loved staying at this cozy cabin while doing some hiking at Shenandoah NP. There was even a Christmas tree! The cabin was clean, comfortable and charming. We enjoyed the gas fireplace and cooking dinners each night in the kitchen. Despite it being a little chilly we enjoyed the porch and the fire pit. Our dog loved being able to swim in the river right on the property! We would love to come back when the weather is warmer to enjoy the outdoor spaces more. Thank for a great stay!
This was a fabulous place to get away with my family! You are definitely off the beaten path, which is exactly what we were hoping for! My kids asked when we could come back as we were driving off.
It was an amazing weekend, we enjoyed being able to fish, take out the water boats, and sit around the fire. The cabin is the perfect size and very cozy. The host was amazing and even helped once we left something behind to get it back to us.
Me and my two friends stayed at this wonderful cabin in a gorgeous setting and enjoyed many aspects of the place: river access, observing wildlife, hiking, resting, playing games offered at the house... It's a beautiful place to unwind and reconnect with nature.
The owner, Derek, was able to manage our needs while helping with a nearby fire on the mountain. We were impressed at the level of dedication shown as we felt like he was very accomodating to our needs. We'd recommend this place for anyone that wants a quiet get-away.
We did stay there for Christmas with my wife and two friends. The cabin is clean and very appealing. There was a nice Christmas tree that made the place even more festive and cozy. Communication with the host is excellent. The location is great as well. Will return in the future.
We were looking for a relaxing weekend with land to let our friends elderly dog roam around. It was perfect. There is a fire pit outside and a gas fireplace inside. Also, there was plenty of utensils, pans for cooking a good meal. The owner was very responsive as well. We will come again.
Enjoyed our stay very much! Cozy, exceptionally clean cabin with great hosts. Place is as pictured. Equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Had games. books, and boats. Hosts were very responsive and even brought us over some kayaks to use in addition to the canoes available. Comfortable furniture, comfortable beds. Friendly, not too close neighbors so you really feel like you are away although there are some houses nearby. Easy access to many places to hike and kayak, Luray just a 15-minute drive away. Enjoyed exploring the area! Would definitely stay again.
Everything was clean, outdoor aesthetics were wonderful. Just a few flying insects inside but they were dealt with very quickly and did not return. If you're not an outdoorsy type of person do not rent this property it is very secluded. But it's a wonderful place if you want to be secluded. My family and I had a great time. Oh yeah I think you have to use the method fly fish on the river... The river's moving too fast for regular fishing.
A very peaceful surrounding, with a river near, and canoes. The cabin was very cozy, and cute, it provided an enjoyable experience. However you should note the cabin may not be suitable for handicapped or elderly residents. There is a steep staircase, small and tight bathrooms, and a steep incline on the way up. If you have a large amount of people you may end up getting overwhelmed by the tight quarters. The cabin is also located on the top of a mountain, and roads up are winding. With all that being said, I enjoyed my experience and am providing this information just to let people be aware of where they are staying.
The property was perfect for the needs of our family of 5. We brought kayaks and dropped them in right from the property. There were canoes available. The driveway is at the bottom of a steep hill which I think should be more clear in the pictures/description (or maybe I missed it). It wasnt an issue for us, but may be an issue for others. Derek was quick to respond any time I had questions. The bathrooms are clean, but should be updated to make them feel more clean. Newer appliances in the kitchen and everything you need to cook/grill. Definitely recommend! Super quiet and came home feeling relaxed. A lot of great fishing right from the property
We brought our Granddaughter and her mom and dad with us to celebrate her 13th birthday and to do a weekend of Horseback Riding at Jordan Hollow Stables. The weather was perfect, the horseback riding was thrilling and this quaint little cabin was the perfect place to sing "Happy Birthday" around the campfire and to enjoy a great weekend with family.
Derek Gaunt, the owner/contact person, was excellent in responding to every single email and question we had even a few last minute questions. I never waited more than 5 minutes for a response. The Cabin has so much charm and the surroundings is so peaceful and relaxing! This family of 5 had plenty of room around the kitchen table and for the sleeping arrangements. Even our dogs chilled out and enjoyed their vacation too! We all highly recommend "Seclusion on the Shenandoah" and we look forward to more family vacations in the future as this beautiful, rustic log cabin.
