Perfect

We had an amazing stay. Never seen so much wildlife. Didn't even really need to leave the cabin to go find things to look at. The river was beautiful. Everything was as advertised. The host was very gracious. Would definitely stay here again.

Excellent Week

Property was wonderful and location on the river was perfect. Frank was incredibly responsive and had lots of great tips on things to do locally. Fishing was great as was just floating down the river! House is fairly small but worked well for us. Would definitely come back

Perfect River Escape

My family of 5 had the pleasure of staying in this home for several weeks. Communication when needed with the owners was superb. The house is absolutely charming and the pictures don’t begin to do it justice. Plenty of space for everyone and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you’d need. The views and access to the river can’t be beat. We loved watching the wildlife and enjoying the daily beauty of the Shenandoah River. The location is quiet and private while still being relatively close to the town of Front Royal. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a get away in the Front Royal area.

Perfect getaway!

Some friends and I rented the house for a weekend getaway to fish and hang out. There was a total of 9 of us and the property accommodated us easily. There are so many options for places to hang out once you are there; down by the river, on the back deck, or in the living areas if there weather is bad. And there is no shortage of beds for everyone. We did have an air mattress with us but didn't really need it because there was a futon. All in all the place was exactly what we were looking for.

About the host

Hosted by Frank and Steph

Why they chose this property

Our family spent a lot of time researching and looking for a waterfront property in Virginia we could enjoy with our young children close to our home in Warrenton. We instantly fell in love with the land and the ideal location this property has. The privacy of the land, the amazing view, and the slow moving expansive waters of the river made it perfect for our family. The house itself needed some work, and any house can be modified, so we fixed everything that needed fixing, and kept it modest and practical instead of making it fancy. We feel completely comfortable and relaxed to be there, and we hope you agree.

What makes this property unique

WATERFRONT. 50 minutes from Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD). Private and secluded, but also close to town. All the amenities of home. Come to relax, sit on the dock or float on the water while you watch bald eagles fly by. We genuinely feel that this is a small piece of paradise and we wholeheartedly want you to enjoy it as much as we do.
