About this property

Gorgeous Cabin Overlooking The Shenandoah River - 2 bedrooms ~ 2 lofts

The 'Eagles Nest River Cabin' towers over a beautiful stretch of the Shenandoah River where the water meanders and swirls over a long stretch of underwater ledges and rocks. The 75' span of private river frontage offers steps and a floating dock for easy access to the river for swimming, wading, tubing, kayaking, canoeing, or just lounging in a chair. The fishing is the best around as the river offers a healthy population of small and large mouth bass. Waterfowl and other birds are abundant (over 50 species documented) and bald eagles are occasionally spotted. There is a public landing and parking at the bridge just up river providing for float trip opportunities down to the property. 2 canoes included at nominal fee so you can either canoe the Shenandoah River or just stretch back in a tube and float your day away (tubes available at reasonable price at Luray Super Walmart).

Sleeping 8, this cabin is beautiful inside and out representing the quintessential vacation cabin with white knotty pine interior, vaulted ceiling, 2 bedrooms, 2 lofts, a fully equipped kitchen and a huge front porch that overlooks the entire stretch of river. At the base of the steps of the cabin is a charcoal grill, table and chairs for easy outdoor grilling and dining. The spacious side and front yards offer plenty of room for group games such as volleyball, croquet, corn hole and horse shoes. The back of cabin is in view of the historic Norfolk Southern railroad. The freight trains rumble by the cabin without whistle approximately 3 to 5 times per day.

Centrally located just 15 miles from Massanutten Ski & Indoor/Outdoor Water Park Resort and historic Luray featuring Luray Caverns the most popular cave in Eastern America and an internationally acclaimed destination. The Shenandoah National Park is also internationally acclaimed featuring breathtaking views from the Skyline Drive (Swift Run Gap access point only 17 miles) and various distance trail hikes to waterfalls and other natural attractions.

We hope that you will decide to come visit and firsthand experience all that the Shenandoah Valley Region has to offer and while lodging with us at the Eagles Nest River Cabin. Fun is Waiting!

Relaxing weekend in Shenandoah

We had a great stay. The kids totally loved the lofts and the adults loved the campfire and the well-stocked kitchen. With the road between the house and the river we kept the dogs leashed, but this was totally fine by us.

Cabin by the river

Quaint, charming cozy cabin overlooking the river with Beautiful views of the mountains. We enjoyed the firepit in the evenings and sitting by the river in the early mornings. Canoes available but no access to launch across from property, need trailer or truck. Bathroom was small could use extra hooks kitchen equipped including kurig/coffee p

River view in the Sky

This is unique property in a quiet riverside neighborhood. The trains were interesting to watch. It has great river access with calmer water. Plenty of space to spread out and enjoy. Interior space was comfortable and the host was very cordial. Great trip for my husband, pup, and I.

Cabin

We enjoyed our stay overall, loved the cabin! The location was the only real drawback. The cabin sat very close to a road that has quite a bit of traffic and high speeds, so letting the grandkids outside by themselves was a problem..

River cabin

Property is as described! Lots of time not the case. Cabin had plenty of space for 6 adults for a week stay. River was super nice. Really enjoyed the stay and would stay again. Was a very hot week, the two window AC units had to run non-stop to keep the cabin somewhat cool. On a normal week they probably suffice. Road divides the cabin from the river and it is busy at times.

A gem of spot

This was a great spot! We loved the location on the river- kids played down by the dock for most of our time there. The lofts were very cool and the house was well stocked.
