  • White Oak Canyon Cottage is a cosy cottage nestled in a beautiful valley of the Blue Ridge Mountains near the Robinson River and Cedar Run. It is located adjacent to the Shenandoah National Park and is literally steps from the White Oak Canyon Hiking Trail and Cedar Run Hiking Trail lower trailheads. These trails offer some of the best waterfall hiking trails in the Shenandoah National Park. White Oak Canyon Cottage is also located about .8 miles to the Old Rag Mountain hiking trail car park.

    We're located just off Virginia's Route 231, one of America's ten most outstanding scenic byways, perfect for biking. Enjoy the hiking, wildlife, fishing for trout in a nearby stocked pond, wineries, antique shops, Luray Caverns, Monticello - Thomas Jefferson's home, Montpelier - James Madison's home, or just sit back and relax and enjoy the scenery.

Excellent hiking base

We loved staying here as the perfect base for our Old Rag hike as well as White Oak Canyon (which is SO close!). Surrounded by woods, we heard so many birds and saw lots of stars in the evening. It was just what we needed.

A great place

The perfect place to stay if you are interested in hiking the mountain trails. Literally a hop skip and jump to the trails. Such a beautiful area to stay in. The place is well maintained, clean and has everything you need. Comfortable and convenient. I will be booking this place to stay many many more times!!

We loved our stay here! We walked to White Oak Canyon, that was by far my favorite hike. Super easy check in, everything was as described. Plenty of towels, sheets, pillows. We had to use the heat and it worked great. Beautiful property. We would stay here again.

Exactly as advertised

We had a great time, especially with short walk to the hiking trails. The trailer was exactly as advertised and had everything we needed. It’s a cozy stay for sure, but worth it. The place was easy to find, and the owner was helpful, accommodating, and accessible.

Great Little Spot for Hikers

This is a great place to stay if you want to hide out in the woods for a weekend and go for a hike or two. The house itself was small but comfortable for four people and worked perfectly. We walked to the White Oak Canyon Trail and loved the hike. It was amazing to not have to drive up like I have so many times. There were not too many food options nearby, so hitting the Food Lion and cooking while at the house is the main option, which I always love to do.Beautiful area, nice and secluded if that’s what you’re looking for, and spectacular hikes just a walk away.

Basic amenities close to trail

We came to a music festival and to hike and were not planning to be inside much so Bills place fit the “bill”. It had the very basics of what we needed and we appreciated the exceptionally beautiful surrounding and it’s close proximity to the trails. The biggest negative was the very uncomfortable sofa which made it hard to watch a movie in the evening since it’s the only place to sit. That’s an easy fix and we would stay there again if the sofa was replaced. Thank you for letting us check in early Bill!

When we booked this stay it looked nice and cozy and was right beside Shenandoah National Park, which was the primary goal. When we arrived, I was disappointed as my memory of the pictures were nicer then the actual accommodations and I thought it would be more spacious then it was. Pretty basic and rustic but to be fair it had all the necessities and the firepit and cornhole were nice features.I appreciated that the kitchen was well stocked with all of the items we needed. Bugs were really bad, which made its second best feature, being outside, unpleasant. Granted, Bill did provide some forewarning, so it's not as if it was a complete surprise.

This is a cozy cabin at the far end of Weakly Hollow, just before the end of the road and White Oak Canyon and Old Rag trailheads. We enjoyed the fire pit and the well-appointed kitchen. In addition to the trails, there are some cute general stores nearby, and charming Sperryville a few miles away, which was having its annual Sperryfest while we were there. The host, Bill, was friendly and reliable. All in all, a lovely weekend.

We had a very nice stay at the cabin! Very cozy and furnished with everything you need. We walked right down the road to the White oak Canyon Trail and drove only about 25 minutes to hike Old Rag. Everything was fairly clean aside from many ladybugs (we probably saw 50-80 during our stay) throughout the home especially in the living room. The fire pit was very nice and wifi worked well! Bill was responsive to my messages and very helpful with information about the cabin and area. Overall a good trip and would recommend!

Can’t Beat The Location

Immediately adjacent to multiple trailheads; this quaint property is the best. The property manager was great to communicate with - tips ahead of time, all of the info we needed to have an easy arrival and check-in, and the property had lots of little touches (local hiking maps and info; restaurant recommendations, and appropriate kitchen/cooking items) to make our stay great. Would absolutely stay here again.

It was nice to be so close to the trail heads! We enjoyed our stay in Bill's little cottage. It was rustic but with new amenities and quiet. Would stay there again!
