Mountain chalet w/hot tub & fire pit
Summary:
Experience a cozy mountain chalet in the Shenandoah Valley, perfect for families, friends, and pets. Enjoy mountain air, stunning valley views, and easy access to Luray Caverns and Skyline Drive.
- Pet‑friendly, family‑friendly with kids’ books & toys
The Space:
Cold mountain air drifts through the trees as evening settles, and steam rises from the hot tub while the sky darkens over the Shenandoah Valley. Inside, the glow from the wood stove reflects off tall windows, creating a warm, inviting space to unwind after a day outdoors. Mornings arrive quiet and bright, coffee in hand, with views that remind you how far you are from the rush of everyday life. You’ll feel the rhythm of the valley slow down, inviting you to reconnect with family, friends, and even your dog.
Sleeping Arrangements
The chalet sleeps up to six guests across three bedrooms. Bedroom 1 features a king bed. Bedroom 2 holds a full bed, has no door but remains a private, quiet space. Bedroom 3 also includes a full bed. Two bathrooms serve the home, one equipped with a bathtub, and bathroom essentials are provided.
Outdoor Living
Step onto the deck to breathe fresh mountain air. A hot tub offers a relaxing soak under the open sky, especially inviting on crisp evenings. A fire pit provides a spot for conversations and s’mores, while a propane grill and outdoor seating let you dine al fresco whenever the weather permits. The backyard and deck give ample room to spread out and enjoy the natural setting.
Kitchen & Dining
The fully stocked kitchen is ready for simple breakfasts or family dinners. Plenty of prep space and a nearby dining table make cooking and gathering feel easy and unhurried. Coffee is available each morning, and the kitchen works just as well for shared meals as for a quiet night in.
Family & Pet‑Friendly Comfort
Children’s books, toys, games, a high chair, and a washer‑dryer are provided for longer stays. A dedicated workspace supports remote work when needed. The chalet welcomes dogs, making it pet‑friendly, but cats are not allowed.
Location & Nearby Attractions
The cabin sits about 15 minutes from downtown Luray and Luray Caverns, with easy access to local breweries, restaurants, and shops. Shenandoah National Park and Skyline Drive are roughly a 30‑minute drive, offering hiking, scenic overlooks, and year‑round outdoor exploration. Wineries and charming small‑town stops are also close by, making the chalet a convenient home base for exploring the area.
Practical Note
Tap water often has a yellow‑light brown appearance due to natural iron and manganese; it is safe to drink, though a slight sulfur smell may be present. We recommend bringing bottled water for peace of mind. Leaves, pollen, and other natural debris may appear on the deck and walkways despite regular cleaning, adding to the authentic mountain experience.
For entertainment, guests can enjoy TVs. Kitchens, washing machines, and 2 bathrooms are other standard amenities.

Great yard/ fire pit! Well stocked kitchen. Fast internet. Comfy beds.. Must absolutely bring bottled water...the metallic taste made it difficult to drink.

Overall the stay was pretty mid. The cabin was not as secluded as advertised. The cabin itself was very hot and the first night was unbearable even with the window unit ac exclusive to the living room. The host did provide fans for the rest of the stay. The shower head in the main bathroom is broken and the oven door cannot be opened as it hits a knob for an adjacent cabinet. There was not adequate towels provided for the stay, particularly as there is a hot tub. Overall it met our needs as we weren't spending much time in the cabin. The host was very responsive, but I did not like how they insist that you register through a second website in addition to VRBO.

Family week away
We booked this location for our family holiday. The house is nice, however one of the bedrooms upstairs does not have a door and the internet did not work for the duration of our stay. The host was responsive, but unable to resolve the issue.
