About this property

Shenandoah Valley Private Apt! Minutes to Shenandoah National Park & Massanutten

*PLEASE NOTE: No new check-ins are allowed Sunday afternoon. The reservation will be modified if this occurs. Thanks!*

Welcome to the Hollow--a newly renovated private basement apartment located minutes from Shenandoah National Park & Massanutten Resort & the Shenandoah River. Perfect getaway for your family or a small group retreat.

Enjoy beautiful views by the firepit, float down the Shenandoah River, treat yourself to the local restaurants or stroll around the town. Great location for a day trip to the Luray Caverns, Grand Caverns in Grottoes or even Monticello! Local farms nearby include White Oak Lavender Farm and Cross Keys Farms.

Heads up-this basement has 7 foot ceilings! No AC available. The basement is naturally cooler, 68° to 74° depending on the time of year. But outside weather affects it too.

*FYI: an optometry business above the apartment is open 7:45am to 6:30pm MTWTh, and 7:45am to 4:00pm on Fridays. Muffled noises can be heard from above during these times.*

Very nice location and place in Elkin just 15 minutes from the ski slopes. It’s under a building in the basement but has windows for light to come through. Everything was brand new and in great shape with all of the extras like linens and towels, soaps all included! Highly recommend

Very clean and welcoming. Exactly as pictured. Host was very gracious. Elkton was charming. Didn't get to explore much because we were in town for a wedding and on a tight schedule. Would most definitely stay here again if in the area.

Beautiful, Spacious, Clean!

We had an amazing one week stay at The Hollow!! Such a well-appointed, spacious, basement apartment that easily sleeps 4 people. Beautiful kitchen to prepare your own meals. HUGE comfortable couch. Clean, bright bathrooms. Walking distance to restaurants. Right up the hill from a great park. Just a 10 minute drive to the Swift Run entrance of SNP. Ruth is a very kind, communicative, and helpful host!

Clean & Beautiful Property with Excellent View from Fire Pit

My family and I loved our stay in Elkton, VA. We had a fantastic time at this newly renovated property and couldn't have asked for a better experience. We have stayed in a lot of short-term rental properties, and I think this is the cleanest and freshest one we have stayed in yet. My kids enjoyed playing the several games available at the property and sitting around the fire pit outside. The fire pit area has a beautiful view of Massanutten Mountain. The rental is located below an Optometry Office, but we knew this when we booked our stay, and our host let us know that there would be people in the office throughout the work week during normal business hours. This didn't bother us at all. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed to cook meals. There were even toddler dishes, which I appreciated for my youngest son. My kids enjoyed sitting around the large island and choosing which seat to sit in. The location was perfect for exploring Shenandoah National Park and Massanutten Resort, which has an excellent water park and ski resort. We appreciated the thoughtful recommendations provided by our host. Communication with her was seamless, and she quickly responded to our questions. Overall, our stay here exceeded our expectations, and we can't wait to return. We have already booked a stay to come back in October. Thank you to Ruth for creating such a wonderful retreat!
