Property was great, clean, and roomy. I would just point out that the property is not close to many dinner options. After hiking all day going back to the cabin to shower meant few dinner options without a long drive. I would suggest better planning for cooking at the cabin which we had wished we had done. Otherwise we enjoyed our time there and really liked the location.

It was amazing—so much better than we expected. The space and location were perfect. My kids absolutely loved the tire swing and having so much room to run and play. Listening to the creek and the rain tapping on the windows at night was so peaceful. It felt like home, and we truly loved our stay.

House was as advertised though a bit further off the road then I expected resulting in a very quiet secluded stay. It was pet friendly which was great though hardwood floors so you have to be careful. The house had every amenity for the most part you could need. The Host communication was easy, and timely, extremely responsive and amenable to check in check out time flexibility.

Our stay at Cardnal Hill Cabin was so lovely. Great house, clean and updated. Nice kitchen. Big fireplace. And so close to trails right into the park. Kelsey was accommodating and responded quickly when we had a question. We hope to find ourselves back there soon! Highly recommend this home for your next get-away!

Wonderful location, property, and house with lots of fun features! Perfect for visiting the nearby town which had good food and drinks, and was perfect for getting to the old rag trailhead early in the morning. Loved the property which had cool things like the firepit and shelter house. Loved the house with the giant tub and outdoor seating. 10:10 would stay again.

We were a small group of friends catching up over a reunion weekend. The house was perfect for us- clean, spacious, and with a very well stocked kitchen! Even better than the photos.The area and property itself are lovely, very quiet and peaceful. We even saw some deer walk by the dining room windows! We enjoyed the board games and the screened porch as well. Great communication with the host and an easy check-in/check-out. We are already hoping to stay again next year!

We had a great time at Hazel River cabin. The cabin was clean and well equipped for our stay. We were there for a couple hikes in Shenandoah NP and it was the perfect place to come back and feel relaxed.
