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 Jive!

Relax with the whole family at this peaceful place to stay. It contains a loft area with a queen bed and a half a bath. French doors and hardwood floors. The sun room has fantastic views of the river, fire pit and a large private yard with hot tub. Lots of extra seating, ping pong for entertaining and a backyard grill.

Equipped kitchen and a washer and dryer. Your home away from home to insure your experience is amazing. Note: We are in the valley and wifi can be spotty.

We loved the house! Lots of things to do inside. The kitchen was fully stocked and just the right size. We loved just relaxing on the porch. There was a lot of room for the dog to run outside. The hot tub was so relaxing, and the river is so close. We loved that it’s not near anything. It’s a really wonderful location!

The property was in a very nice location. We enjoyed floating on the river, canoeing, fishing and the hot tub. We had everything we needed for our stay. The only issue we encountered were wasps, but the owner came and sprayed under the deck.

Gorgeous location, great

The house was very clean, the location was great, and we had a wonderful vacation. The Starlink internet didn’t work in the house so we eventually bought a dvd player at the nearby Walmart and watched movies due to being unable to stream. Otherwise everything was perfect! It wasn’t the worst thing to be a bit disconnected, but as the description mentions don’t plan on working or streaming in the house.

Great Escape Cabin

Fantastic riverfront cabin with a lot of space indoors and out. Very clean, but it is a rustic cabin setting. Perhaps the most unique and fun feature is hundreds of river rocks painted by the guests in all sorts of ways, displayed inside and outside, was fun to add to the collection with the paints and brushes supplied. Also note that there is a larger sister cabin nearby but about 50 yds. away.

Luray Cabin

Great spot with river in backyard. We loved the hot tub and having a fire pit. The loft space gave our kids enough room to each have their own bed. Unfortunately the large sunroom we were looking forward to using was not sealed and wasps got in, even though we didn’t open the doors or windows. The single bed upstairs needs a new mattress, and the upstairs powder room is hard to use because of the sloped ceiling.Host was very responsive when we asked for more towels and brought them right away (there were only 4 and we had 5 people).
