We rented two of the properties to accommodate our large family and it was the perfect mix of what everyone might need. We used the Shannandoah River outfitters to book two different floats down the river. Amazing experience all around!

My family stayed at Fish Trap over a long weekend. The house was clean and well stocked. There is a huge, flat back yard between the house and the river front which was great for the kids. The section of the river adjacent to the yard is perfect. The water level is not too deep and the river bottom is not too difficult to navigate there. My daughters are 9 and 12; they both really enjoyed the stay. The home is located about a mile away from the outfitter so it's perfectly positioned if you want to arrange for tubing or canoeing. I've stayed in numerous homes along the Shenandoah River. This is one of the best as far as the condition of the home, proximity to the water and general experience.

This was the perfect trip. The cabin is 30 minutes away from Skyline drive and about 16 minutes away from shopping and other activities like Luray Caverns. Its a lovely town and the hosts were very good with communication. There were bugs but you are in the woods and you shouldnt go to the woods without expecting some wildlife. Also great fiahing spot for redeye and bass. Also was able to bring my dog which was a bonus. I will definitely be back.
Very close to the river.
Beautiful firepit with wood provided.
Jacuzzi was beautiful with different light features and very clean.

Wonderful Property, Ideal Location

Our family spent a long weekend at Fish Trap and couldn’t have had a better time. The location is ideal and the property is well maintained, extra clean and very comfortable. We loved the fire pit and hot tub, took the canoe out for a try, and spent a morning fishing at Bealers Ferry Pond, which is a few minutes away. Would highly recommend.

Relaxing Getaway!

Cabin was well maintained and very comfortable. Nicely situated close to Luray and next to the Shenandoah river in a relaxing setting with all of the amenities you could ask for. We've stayed at two cabins at this location and are planning another visit to a third cabin in November. Thoroughly enjoy the area and can't wait for our next visit.

Great location for trails and wine

What a great place. The home was clean and had plenty of the essentials to get us going upon our arrival. Everyone was responsive to our questions to prepare for arrival. The home is beautiful in an amazing location on the river. We had a family of ducks visit us most mornings. We were able to hike in Shenandoah National Park every morning and found many wineries to quench our thirst on the way back to bbq and soak in the hotutb every day.We cant wait to return soon.

Birdwatchers Paradise

My three sisters and our sister-in-law enjoyed a long weekend at beautiful fish trap cabin. My sister-in-law is a bird watcher and we could not believe how many birds we saw in the yard and near the river. This picturesque cabin was the perfect place to stay and relax and go into Shenandoah national park and enjoy each other‘s company with plenty of space to spread out and do art and cook and relax. Cabin was very clean. The Wi-Fi is rather sketchy and so do not expect the ability to stream any movies but perfect for enjoying the company of family or friends.

we absolutely enjoyed our vacation and the house. We had plenty of room. Only one issue (which we did not report) was that we could not get the upstairs bathroom water in the tub/shower to get hot, lukewarm at best. We all had to use the downstairs bathroom. Other than that it was perfect

Peaceful Spring break

Our family had a wonderful time at this cute little cabin. The property was beautiful and the communication throughout our stay was stellar. We fished a lot, explored the Luray caverns, fish, some more, add quality family time and just enjoy the beauty. Really all positive things to say. The only thing that took getting used to was the soft water in the house and the hot tub. It was very strange for us and we wish the fish were biting a bit more other than that. It was an amazing day. Thank you.
