Secluded, Cozy Cottage in the Shenandoah Valley

Escape to our comfortable and well appointed cottage in the mountains. This one bedroom one bath with additional loft is the perfect retreat. The spacious deck is ideal for sipping coffee in the morning, reading and napping in the afternoon and star gazing at night. The property sits on over 90 acres to explore and a hot tub to soak in after. There are beautiful hiking trails a few steps from the cottage and the famous Skyline Drive is just a 20 minute drive away. There are several beautiful wineries a few miles from the cottage. Enjoy the evenings by the fire pit (we have wood available for you). We also have a wood burning fire place for chilly nights and a gas grill for your convenience.
The cottage has free wifi (Starlink!) and a smart TV.
There are 2 towns close by for provisioning, shopping and meals out.
We have a generator that will automatically turn on and power the entire cottage in case there is a power outage.
Peace and quiet with all the comforts of home. Like us, you won’t want to leave.

Please be aware that we do have a security camera located on the upper deck that is pointed at the driveway and one at the entry door.

Peaceful weekend getaway!
This house is everything and more! The surrounding area is perfect for hiking. The porches and fire pit are perfect for sitting and relaxing. It rained during our stay and I loved sitting on the upper porch watching it. It is absolutely as shown in the listing. I loved all the cute fall touches and I want a shower just like the one here. We will definitely be back!! Thank you for a relaxing weekend.

Place was very clean and comfortable. Hot tub was fantastic. Location was great, very peaceful/secluded but close enough to Shenandoah for hiking and there are nearby towns for dining. Host/check in both perfect. Would definitely stay again!

Weekend getaway.
It was a peaceful stay. The property was well taken care of and clean! A charming cottage set back away from the hustle and bustle. We enjoyed Virginia. It was very charming with many area attractions. We took in a brewery and Luray Caverns! Overall a wonderful time! We will be back soon! Thank you!!

Very peaceful, clean, up to date and great location. Hiked to the top of the mountain on a well maintained several mile trail on the property with incredible views. Thank you to the hosts and will plan to visit again. What a great tranquil place to relax!

Woodsy but not secluded
My husband and I stayed for the weekend. While the home is definitely out in the woods, it is not as secluded as we had hoped. There is a large occupied house that looks down on the rental house and hot tub. The ring doorbell can also see the hot tub, and we did not feel like it was private enough for us to use. The house is beautiful and there is plenty of space to wander in the woods.

Stayed here for a weekend for a mini honeymoon/wife’s birthday. The cabin had everything we needed and more. We stay at a lot of cabins around shenendoah valley and this one was definitely high on the list of quality. Very clean and cozy. We took a hike, enjoyed the fire pit and hot tub, grilled, and relaxed on the upper deck. All the appliances worked and shower was great. Our only issue was the bed was very noisy and sounded like it could use some attention or an upgrade, there was a good amount of japanese lady bugs and stinkbugs, but this is pretty standard for any cabin I’ve ever been to and almost impossible to prevent entirely, especially this time of year, it’s just part of mountain life and they keep to themselves. Other than these small issues, no complaints. We had a very relaxing and peaceful weekend and maybe next time we will come up to enjoy the cabin in the fall. Would definitely recommend for a couples getaway!

Great Location
This was the perfect getaway for a weekend trip with my partner. The house was decorated beautifully. The indoor fire place was great in heating the place up quickly (it was 50 degrees inside when we arrived). We also enjoyed the hot tub outside during the brisk evenings. Place was clean and the owner was quick to respond when we had questions. We would definitely return!

A Destressing Getaway
This was a really beautiful and clean property, secluded in the woods. My husband and I enjoyed a bonfire, laying on the hammock and drinking our coffee outside in the morning. The lift is really cute but I would advise anyone with young kids it’s pretty high (about a 10ft climb up a ladder). Our kids would have been frightened by the height. I would definitely come stay again. The owners did a great job with the place.

Perfect get away
We had a great time and really enjoyed our weekend trip for our anniversary. The house was just the right size for the two of us. Very spacious bathroom and cute little kitchen/living room. The hot tub was great to relax in after a long day. The fire place came in handy the one day it was cold and rainy. The furnishings were very nice and we loved the way the house was decorated. There was plenty to do in the area when we felt like venturing out. It was a perfect place to relax and recharge.
