About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The River House

About this space
Come unplug at this adorable, spacious cabin on the bank of the
Shenandoah river. Enjoy peaceful dinners amongst the trees on a two tiered deck. Fall asleep to the rhythmic sounds of nature waking to coffee in sunroom.

If you prefer social nightlife, you’re just 10 minutes from the casino, bars and restaurants
The space
This cozy yet spacious cabin has two bedrooms (one queen and one double) with two full baths. One full bath has access from the queen bedroom. There is a trundle bed that opens to two single beds in the day room that over looks the river.

In addition to a full kitchen, dining area and living room, this cabin boasts a sunroom, a day room and a two level deck.

Though this cabin is located in a quiet neighborhood on the river, you’re only ten minutes to the casino, bars and restaurants.
Guest access
The entire cabin including a two level deck, yard around home and direct river access.
Other things to note
This quiet cabin sits on the bank of the river, for easy access to swim, lounge or fish.

I live on adjacent lot to answer questions to help with any concerns.

The River House was awesome. The location was amazing and my three boys really enjoyed fishing, swimming, and kayaking. The house is well appointed and has multiple decks overlooking the river. Definitely a place we would like to come back to.

Awesome weekend. Host was terrific and attentive to our needs. The host even dropped off fresh vegetables from his garden for us which were delicious. Deck is great for relaxing and watching the ducks swim in the river.

A long weekend away

Check in was easy, the property is clean and quiet AND the property is amazing. If you are looking for some time away that is right on the river, minutes away from Harper's Ferry, wineries and breweries... This is the place for you!
