About this property

Country Elegance overlooking the Shenandoah River

  • This beautiful home, which we have named The Snug, is a guest favorite in our Rolling River Holidays rental portfolio! The house was designed and built by the owner of the property, Frank O'Reilly, and not a detail was left out. The house is located on a stunning ten acre river site on the 108 acre Rolling River Farm, and is nestled in the trees. Walk out of the back of the house, onto any of the three levels of decks and patios and be met by lovely views of the Shenandoah River.

    The interior boasts 3 bedrooms (2 ensuite), 3.5 baths. The central feature of the home is the custom-designed spiral staircase, which winds from the full and spacious basement up to the cozy top floor master suite that is nestled up in the treetops.

    The full, bright kitchen offers plenty of counter space and a movable island with extra seating. It also features a comfortable, built in dining space that is also a perfect place to enjoy all the peaceful nature views as the banquette is surrounded on three sides by windows.

    The living room, just beside the kitchen, is the perfect place for relaxing, playing board games, and snuggling up by the gas fireplace. In the basement is a large media and rec room space, where you can gather for movies or some healthy competition around the foosball or orbital air hockey tables.

    While the inside space is incredibly welcoming, you can also seamlessly enjoy the great outdoor spaces that the house provides. The patio off the basement, which is home to the hot tub, is also a great place to enjoy a hot summer day in the shade. The deck off the main floor acts just like an extension to the main living room and adds an outdoor dining option for glorious summer evenings. The private deck on the top floor, designed for the enjoyment of the guests in the master suite, is as secluded and peaceful as it gets sitting among the treetops!

    Just a short walk down the hill you can also enjoy the wood burning fire pit, which sits on a handsome rock bluff, with sweeping views of the water. Its the perfect place to spend an Autumn night with friends and family reminiscing and telling stories.

    The house also has private access to the Shenandoah River and 3 kayaks for you to enjoy at no extra charge. In 2025 we improved and expanded the Snug dock, so guests can now enjoy more riverside seating and relaxing. The river is one of the highlights of the property and we want you to enjoy it to the fullest.

    Rolling River Farm is located just 15 minutes from Downtown Front Royal, which is proud to be the named "The Canoe Capital of Virginia", as well as the gateway to Skyline Drive.

    We are only 1.5 hour drive (75 miles approx) from the center of Washington DC for those guests looking to visit all that our nation's capital has to offer. Also an easy one hour drive from Dulles Airport, where many of our international visitors arrive. If you are interested in Civil War battlefields, we are surrounded by some of the more famous historical sights marking that sad time in our nation's history.

    Rolling River Farm is truly a one of a kind property and we can't wait to host you at The Snug!
