Deer Haven's prime location is the perfect hub for those who want to explore the region's natural and historical wonders. Just 100 miles from Washington, DC, and a short drive to Shenandoah National Park, Bryce and Massanutten Ski resorts, and the spectacular Luray Caverns, you'll find yourself spoiled for choice.

Deer Haven's warm and welcoming interior is designed for your utmost comfort and convenience. The house features a fully-stocked, eat-in kitchen, three baths, and large decks with a grill, fire pit, and hot tub for relaxing. The living area boasts a fireplace, comfortable seating, and plenty of games to play and books to snuggle up with. Two bedrooms are on the second floor, including a principal bedroom with a wall of windows overlooking the Shenandoah Valley. The private third-bedroom suite is on the ground floor with its own bathroom, sitting room, bunk beds, and screened-in porch with great views.
**NOTE FOR WINTER GUESTS: Deer Haven's recent paving of the most difficult part of the driveway has made it easier to reach the cabin. However, as the area does occasionally get snow, we require a four-wheel or all-wheel drive vehicle during winter months. Rest assured, we'll work with you to ensure your safety and comfort during inclement weather. In the unlikely event that the road is impassable, we'll honor a partial or full refund depending on the circumstances.
Escape from the hustle and bustle of city life and experience the peace, quiet, and natural beauty of the Shenandoah Valley at Deer Haven. Keywords: House, chalet, mountain home, getaway, secluded, cabin, views, mountain house, lodge, DC, private, vacation, wildlife.

Our stay at Deer Haven was great. We appreciated the heads up on the driving directions, the gps pretty much got us there but it was nice knowing it might be a little confusing.
When I booked this home, it was originally for a total of 3. Then 4 others decided to join us due to the beautiful location and the activities we planned on doing ( dual sport/OHV trail riding). This house was roomy enough for all of us ( we cleared it with the home owner first) and very close to the trails. Lots of towels, very nice appliances, comfy beds, extremely private.
Everything was wonderful! The views were spectacular. There were just 2 of us, but another couple and small family would have plenty of room. I would recommend thisnto anyone.
The kitchen was perfect to have dinners with everyone! We BBQd, used the stove and oven. Had plenty of cooking utensils. The view was spectacular at any temperature and any time of day or night. We enjoyed sitting on the deck, inside and in the hot tub. When it got too warm, the air conditioning was awesome. Everything worked as described!
Absolutely the most gorgeous views and a beyond peaceful and secluded location! The hot tub under the stars at night and making smores around the firepit was the highlight of the trip. The only recommendation we could offer to other guests - if you are at all picky about water - bring bottled water with you. Otherwise, this was an amazing cabin!
We had a wonderful time! The house was clean and comfortable. The beds were so comfortable, we actually inquired on where to get one. The front deck with the rocking chairs was amazing! The view was awesome. We enjoyed coffee in the morning and wine in the afternoon on the deck listening to the birds. If we had any questions, John responded quickly. We hope to come back here in the future.
Very enjoyable secluded mountain retreat with spectacular views, quiet privacy, comfy beds, plenty of space including porches and a fire pit and indoor fireplace. Nice hot tub to relax in at end of the day. Kitchen well equipped to cook in. Peaceful and cozy with excellent amenities.Be sure you have good traction or 4 wheel drive to ascend the final gravel/dirt road, particularly if there is snow or ice present.And make a left after you go over the small bridge (main road).
Wonderful stay! Great views, inviting hot tub, wonderful fireplace. Great set up for our annual, family Christmas gathering. Plenty of room and very clean. Easy check in and check out. Close to a grocery and historical sites. Definitely would stay here again.
The cabin and location are beautiful! This is the second time we've stayed and enjoyed it just as much if not more than the first time. Highly recommend!
We had a wonderful stay with the most amazing view! Watching the sunset from the deck, sitting by the fireplace, and looking at the stars from the hot tub were definitely highlights.
We enjoyed our stay so much that we didnt want to come home. If we didnt have work and the kids didnt have school we would have probably tried to stay an extra few more days. The view was definitely beautiful. We definitely want to come back on warmer days to enjoy the outdoors.
The perfect spot for my friends and I to get away for a while. Easy access to town, beautiful views, and everything you could need available in the house.
Lovely home with beautiful views off deck, well-stocked kitchen, comfy beds and pillows, large TV and wonderful hot tub we used twice. Serene and quiet, surrounded by nature. We enjoyed many hikes and Luray Caverns nearby…one of my family’s more relaxing getaways!
The house was amazing! Bigger than we thought it would be. Plenty of room for 4 adults. The wood-burning fireplace was cozy and the outdoor fire pit area was clean and inviting.
We were a group of 6, including two children and absolutely loved the house, ammenities, and location. The hosts were great, and the check in super easy. Had a great stay and will definitely go back!
Property and house just as pictured. Easy check in and out. Nice and relaxing
