Cozy cabin
The description was accurate and the view was very nice. There was a small glitch regarding linens when we checked in but John worked with us to fix it. Overall we enjoyed our stay

Perfect space for retreat and reflection
Recently stayed the cozy cabin for a delightful weekend in the mountains. The cabin is lovely, especially the new master suite, bathroom, and beautiful wrap around deck. There’s almost no need to go anywhere, just sit and enjoy the views, the fireplace, and lovely location. That said, it’s super easy to get to Shenandoah and Front Royal as well, making it a perfect landing spot for activities in the region. I would definitely stay there again and highly recommend.

Great Getaway
We were looking for a place where we could disconnect and recharge. Cozy Cabin fit our needs. Quiet. Comfortable. Far enough to feel remote. Close enough if we needed anything. Great vista over the Shenandoah River. Minutes from Skyline Drive and Shenandoah River State Park (where we hiked). Nearby vineyard for wine tasting. Host was responsive when we needed information.

Long weekend in Shenandoah Valley
My wife and i were looking for a secluded getaway cabin from which we could do some hikes in Shenandoah Valley National Park. Also enjoyed the convenient access to Front Royal for supplies and dining.

Secluded getaway
I like these cabins because they are somewhat older and true log cabins, pretty secluded I like that there are only three cabins on the property spaced out pretty well. You’re sitting up high on a bluff or a hill right over the river the views cannot be beat. my only complaint, a small one would be that there were some mouse droppings in where the pots and pans were otherwise nothing to complain about

Perfect Getaway
My wife and I loved the property. Close enough to the town for a dinner or drink out yet far enough away to disconnect and unwind by a fire while in the cabin. The views were spectacular and the place was clean. We loved the master bedroom and bathroom that look to be an addition. They provide all necessities you would need including plenty of fire wood. Would highly recommend and we will stay here again next year!
