The place was excellent, clean and comfortable. The owner was very responsive. I would stay again and recommend this to family and friends. Thank you for a wonderful weekend.
Property was beautiful and everything we hoped for! The hot tub, movie screen, screened in porch, and the many amenities made for the perfect trip. Close to town and hiking. We would love to visit again!
We had a fantastic time at Whispering Woods! It was secluded enough to feel like a true getaway but close enough to Luray and Shenandoah National Park to enjoy everything the area has to offer. We brought our dog who also had a great time relaxing. Ashka is a great host and answered all of our questions before and during our stay.
Ashka's cabin was lovely! Beautifully decorated, kitchen fully stocked, plenty of firewood for the fire pit, and hot tub worked like a dream. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars was because of some bathroom inconveniences. The half bath sink wasn't usable and the full bath shower door wouldn't stay closed. Other than that, everything was wonderful!
We had a wonderful stay at Whispering Woods. The host is very easy to chat with and very accessible. The cabin is wonderfully appointed with all the amenities you might want. It was very chilly and snowy during our trip and warming up by the gas fireplace was a treat. Our dog loved the house as well, especially the dog bowls set out for her. We can’t wait to come back again in warmer weather to enjoy the fire pit and hot tub. The location is excellent and the host’s directions were very helpful. We appreciated all the thoughtful tips she provided in advance of our stay. We have stayed in a lot of cabins in the areas surrounding Shenandoah National Park and this was one of our absolute favorites. We love to come to the area 3-5 times per year we will definitely be back for another stay at Whispering Woods!
We absolutely loved our stay. The cabin was perfect. Quiet, clean, and had all the amenities. The property owner was fantastic at communicating and gave us tons of information and helpful tips for the area. Beds were comfortable, the cabin had an updated kitchen and bath, a wonderful hot tub, outdoor fire pit, and an outside movie projector. The WiFi is not good but we were aware of this. Overall, Very lovely. We look forward to staying here again.
This was a perfect cabin getaway. The area is quiet and secluded. The cabin is very clean and well taken care of. All amenities were great, including the hot tub. Would highly recommend this rental for your trip to the mountains!
We had such a delightful weekend at Ashka's cabin! It was a great break from the city for a long weekend. Communication was excellent; the cabin is exactly as listed; and it was clean, quiet, and close to things to do in Luray. The hot tub was my favorite part, and there's plenty of firewood to make smores in the fire pit. I would definitely stay there again!

Cozy cabin in the woods. Neighbors in sight on 3 sides with the back neighbor close in sight of the deck/hot tub. Also, my advice is to look for food options in advance, not much around.
Everything was clean and looked as pictured online. Host was excellent at responding and even made arrangements for a special request before our arrival. Checking process was easy as well as checkout. My husband and I stayed for our Honeymoon and it was a perfect place. The hot tub was our favorite and we would definitely stay again! If you are looking for more remote this place isn't as remote as we thought as it was surrounded by other homes. However with the trees and being 20 minutes from town it still had a remote nature feel. Plenty of room for larger families as well. We definitely enjoyed our stay!
This stay was amazing. The property was exactly as pictured and everything was just as beautiful as expected. So many amenities (hot tub, projector, fire place) that were so nice to use during out stay. Ashka is always available for any questions or concerns and she leaves thorough directions throughout the property as well. Loved that the property was so close to the Shenandoah Outfitters so that we could hop on the river so easily! Definitely recommending this stay to friends and family if they are in need of a getaway!
I want to leave a review for Ashka's home, it gives you the quite slow down feel and everything advertise is trueHere’s a polished review you can post:This cabin was exactly what we needed peaceful, quiet, and the perfect place to slow down and truly relax. Everything advertised was absolutely true, from the cozy atmosphere to the beautiful surroundings and amenities. It gave us that genuine “escape from everyday life” feeling the moment we arrived.The space was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully prepared, making it easy to unwind and enjoy the experience. If you’re looking for a quiet getaway to reset, reconnect, and enjoy some peace, this is definitely the place. We would absolutely stay again!
My husband and I enjoyed a quiet, relaxing stay at the Whispering Woods cabin! This cabin was clean, cozy and quiet. We enjoyed cooking our favorite meals in the kitchen and sitting next to the fireplace. The cabin is beautifully decorated and updated. Ashka was very communicative and informative. We so enjoyed celebrating our anniversary here!
The property is exactly as pictured and everything was ready for our stay. We brought our dog along and the host had thoughtfully prepared food and water bowls for him prior to our arrival. I really appreciated all the personal touches. Although there are other cabins nearby, the lot has a secluded feel and it was very peaceful to spend time outdoors!
