Lovely home! We had such a great visit and the house itself was everything we were looking for. The home was comfy, and all the touches to make us feel welcomed and ready to relax. Great for families with all the games! Even with perfect weather, we could not get our SUVs up the driveway. Recommendation to update listing that this is getaway cabin is 4-wheel drive only. We had a wagon with us so it wasn’t a huge deal. George was responsive and let us know where to park, etc. The lights down at the fire pit also were not working - but it wasn’t a deal breaker. But plan accordingly. (Did not reach out to hosts regarding this as it wasn’t a big deal).

The cabin was very cozy, with warm and inviting atmosphere from the moment we walked in. It was neat and clean. George, our host, was exceptionally responsive, promptly addressing all our questions. We truly felt at home from the very beginning of our stay, making it a perfect getaway. We will be back.

We had a great time staying at the cabin despite periods of rain. It's a great spot and has lots of nice additions, like a horse shoe game.
It was clean. It had a beautiful drive to it and it was tucked up in the woods. It would be nice if there was curtains, but that is OK. You are surrounded by trees. Enjoyed our visit. Has a very cute town nearby. Wasn’t in the house very much was enjoying all the scenery.

Cabin Review
This cabin was a great place for my little family to stay. It was clean and had everything we needed. It is also a beautiful place to stay. The only problem we had was the location. We didn’t realize it was on a steep gravel road that recommended 4WD vehicles and our truck wasn’t a 4WD so we struggled getting up to the cabin. But other than that, it was perfect!

We had a great time at this cabin! It was comfortable, clean, and beautiful! The pictures don’t do this place justice. Our only regret is not booking for a longer stay. We will definitely be returning!

We loved our stay at the cabin! It was a lovely getaway to the mountains and it was so nice to be able to spend some time in Shenandoah National Park as the entrance is so close. The cabin was cozy and perfect for our trip. The hosts were also so accommodating in making sure we could stay even with bad weather forecasted on the weekend we planned being in the cabin.

Perfect Mountain Retreat
It’s the coziest of cabins snuggled into the mountains! Close (40ish min drive) to Shenadoah National park for great hiking. A ten minute drive to its own cute little downtown. Do not recommend suicases with wheels, only pack duffle bags as the entrance to the cabin is up a few rocky steps- nothing that hindered us but did see noted in other reviews.
