Thankful for a getaway!

We booked Jewell Hollow for a last minute Thanksgiving trip to Luray. It did not disappoint. The kids were happy to be outside exploring during the day and inside with fooseball and TV/internet connections. We will be back.

Disliked: Cleanliness

This rustic cabin was locate very close to the Shenandoah NP entrance and not too far from the town of Luray. It is an old but charming cabin. It has some modern amenities such as internet, cable TV, and air conditioning units throughout the house. However, there was no dishwashing machine or washer & dryer. The biggest negative experience in this place was that we found lots of bugs in one of closest (the one in front of the 2nd floor bathroom) and started to claw into the bedrooms. I have to use the bug spray that I found in the kitchen area to get rid of the bugs. I guess it was spring time and we were in the middle of the wood, bugs are expected. Anyway, overall we enjoyed our stay...especially when we lighted up the fire place and enjoy a game or two with the family... :-)

Home away from home

Family had a great time. Enjoyed the pond even though fish were few and small. Arrowhead lake is very close by.

Location is perfect

This cabin is very close to the park. Super easy to access skyline drive and hiking. Also convenient to run into luray for staples or to tour the caverns. The house is spacious and really sleeps 9. Often vrbo like to count couches or air mattresses - not here. Two queens one double and 3 singles. The house had everything we needed amd it was really nice to have a place that welcomed our dogs. We did put forth a valiant effort at catching fish but they were not cooperative. It was quiet and peaceful! Renters should note that while they have window units in the bedrooms which keep them plenty cool at night, the rest of the cabin does not have air conditioning. Some days the breeze and fans were enough to make it comfortable. But when it got 90 and humid it was pretty stuffy. You should just know that ... if you are going during summer.months.

Great getaway

We had a great Mother's Day retreat at the Jewell Hollow Homestead. The cabin was in great condition, and you could tell a lot of love and care has gone into it over the years. It is full of family photos, which makes you really feel like you're an invited guest in someone else's home. 7 minute drive from Skyline Drive. Having WiFi was a nice bonus too.
