Lovely location

We wanted to do a hiking trip in VA and this location was affordable, allowed pets and was close to the Shenandoah park. It is also close to the Luray caverns. We absolutely loved our trip and this is a lovely rental. I would 100% recommend.

Cozy country retreat

We spent a weekend hiking in Shenandoah NP. This was a perfect location to access the park. The house was clean and comfortable with all amenities included. The hosts were very sweet to leave fresh chicken eggs on our arrival and were very helpful to assist in anything we needed. Would definitely stay again!

Wonderful Shenandoah trip!

We loved staying in this adorable cottage for a mini Shenandoah National Park vacation. The location was perfect as it was close to lots of great hiking. The cottage was a perfect place to relax after hiking all day and had everything we needed. We loved the back deck, the grill, and the fire pit. The Robinson River was close by and my husband and son enjoyed swimming in it. Thanks for a perfect trip!

Cozy Farm Retreat

This property is perfect for anyone looking to escape to the mountains. It is in the middle of a tiny, cute town near the Blue Ridge Mountains and close to Old Rag trailhead. The home is well equipped to host a family of four or small group of friends, has a living room where everyone can gather and a small fire pit outside. Bedding was quite comfortable; I’d book again in a heartbeat.

Weekend Friend Fun

Had a fun weekend stay with a trip to Shenandoah National Park for a hike and blackberry ice cream pie, visited a ciders in Sperryville, and enjoyed the Possom Store and Art Print shopping near the listing. Would love to come back when the weather is warmer and float or swim in the river. Farm fresh eggs left by super responsive host were great!

Fall Getaway

We were looking for just a little more than a cabin but within the budget. This was more than we could've asked for! A cute cottage with two bedrooms, 1.5 baths, a full kitchen, washer and dryer including a campfire area and a grill. We didn't even need to pack linens!!! Not far from a number of wineries, Shenandoah National Park, Skyline Drive, hiking, many historical sites and cute shopping as well as beautiful country to tool around in. We did not get it all done in a week! The hosts mostly left us on our own but were quick to respond when we needed something - with puppies, we had a few issues. They even had fresh eggs waiting for us! We plan to go back!

Two "older ladies"

Main concerns for older visitors, the bathtub has no grab bars. My friend who is almost 80, fell while trying to get into the tub. She stepped in with one leg and she slipped, didn't have anything to grab onto and fell backwards out of the tub and hit the vanity. We went to the ER and thankfully nothing was broken but her back is very painful. This happened on our last full day there. The other recommendation is to put some plywood under the mattress on the bottom bunk bed for some support. We really did enjoy the area, so much beautiful nature.

Nancy, we are so sorry to hear that your friend fell! We appreciate the recommendation about the grab bar and will look into installing one.
