Cozy Cottage w Hot Tub, Fire Pit, WiFi & Sunroom!

Summary:
Welcome to Sweet Pea Cottage, hosted by Blue Maple!

Sweet Pea Cottage is a cozy retreat nestled in the Shenandoah Valley mountains, with everything you need for your getaway.

The standouts:
- Relax in the outdoor hot tub!
- Grill on the deck and enjoy your meal at the picnic table
- Relax around the fire pit roasting s'mores
- Sit back and enjoy morning coffee in the sun room
- Drive 15 minutes into downtown Front Royal for great restaurants

The Space:
Sweet Pea Cottage is perfect for families, a couple’s retreat, or a small group of friends.

The cottage includes:
- Outdoor hot tub perfect for relaxing
- Two bedrooms to comfortably sleep four - 1 with queen bed, 1 with set of bunks
- Large loft area for hanging out
- Sunroom with huge windows looking directly into the woods
- Small deck with propane grill
- Fire pit and picnic table in the yard
- Fast Wi-Fi (100 Mbps)
- Smart TV

Please note:
We have an indoor fireplace, but unfortunately it's not usable and is only decorative.
The previous owners smoked, and there's a very slight smoke smell in the house. Most guests don't notice, but if you're very sensitive to it this may not be the place for you.

Our cleaning team sweeps the deck, stairs, and walkways before each arrival, but due to the natural setting, you may still notice some leaves, pollen, or similar—especially during certain seasons. We appreciate your understanding as nature tends to leave its mark, no matter how often we tidy up!

We often take our three little kids and dog to the cabin with us, so we're very family- and dog-friendly! Unfortunately we don't allow cats (we're allergic).

Beyond the cottage, we love how close to everything we are. Looking for good restaurants or shopping? Drive 15 minutes down the mountain into Front Royal. Breweries or wineries? There are a dozen within 30 minutes (our favorites are Backroom Brewery and Naked Mountain Winery).

And of course tons of great hiking in Shenandoah National Park -- also only about 15 minutes away!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker and an ironing board.

The property is just ok. There is mold in the bathroom shower grout which is kind of disgusting. You also need to take your own trash to the trash facility. The listing also has pictures of a working fireplace, and the fireplace does not actually work, which I find to be deceptive. The host asks us if we wanted to stay an extra night because he didn’t have a booking. We said no, and asked for a late check out, which he would not accommodate us with, despite offering it for an extra 80. Stay somewhere else.

The property was ok. There wasn't much of a view from the cottage. It was clean but kind of small. The gas grill on the deck was nice to have. The only major problem was that there was no hot water on our last day there. We notified the owner, but he could not get anyone out there until the next day, when we left. So that was kind of a bummer. No showers or hot water to properly do the dishes.

Front Royal cottage

This cottage was perfect for our visit to the area to explore Shenandoah National Park and wineries. The town of Front Royal is so nice too! The cottage was super clean and had everything we needed. We loved relaxing in the sunroom with our doggie after a day of exploring. The host was very responsive.

Basic but ok

Worked for our needs- 2 adults and a dog- but the hot tub is really the only bonus. House is small and clean and kitchen stocked etc but the beds and furniture not super comfortable and lacking any charm or extras that most VRBOs provide.

Maybe in the spring?

Not a pleasant experience in winter. Radiator in children's room was tepid. However I think the spring, with the porch overlooking the trees, birds, and opportunities for walks, it likely is more enjoyable.

Cozy cabin

We enjoyed the cabin in the woods. It was very quiet and comfortable. Our family enjoyed the hot tub and the loft upstairs for playing cards and games. Property manager communicated with us very well. It is about 20 minutes from Front Royal on a gravel road. The stars were really bright out there!

Clean + Comfortable.

Great communication from owner and overall a clean and comfortable place to stay. Not awesome for dogs as there is no real backyard and neighbors are close--many of whom have dogs that freely roam. Surrounding area is beautiful and lots of great places for hiking and other outdoor activities.

Excellent cozy house

We really enjoyed our stay (May 2022). Place was clean, airy, comfortable beds, fast internet, clean bathroom, good kitchen. Last mile to the house is gravel and steep at times, but totally navigable. Tony was great with regular communication, and provided very useful instructions and area information. Enjoyed the Shenandoah river and also Lake Frederick for boating and fishing. Highly recommend!

Good stay- but, home could have been better outfitted.

Tony was wonderfully helpful and easy to deal with. However, it should be noted that the property itself is not on the river or water. Rather, it is part of a neighborhood which has access. The porch, which is lovely, could benefit from more comfortable furniture and the kitchen needs to be better stocked for making meals at home.
