Perfect nature getaway, quick drive from the city

This was our second time staying in one of John’s cabins. The cabin is close enough from the city, an easy drive, but well surrounded by nature! We really enjoyed the walks down to the river, as did our teen and dog. Nice river views from the bedroom and porch. Only a 10 min drive to civilization (groceries, restaurants, etc). We enjoyed watching movies (our own and via streaming apps) and sitting by the cozy fireplace. Cabin is well insulated. John was very responsive when we had a question. We would come back a third time!

Quaint, Comfortable, Relaxing...

Great weekend getaway... Cozy spot to relax in front of the fireplace on a cold night or view the incredible number of stars against the dark backdrop. Very comfortable. The cabin itself is clean and well maintained, as are the surrounding grounds. All appliances appear to be new and in good working order. Great little getaway and hope to be back.

Perfect location

We were situated on the mountain above the river with trees all around. There were so many amazing wineries within a 30 minute drive. We couldn’t have asked for a more relaxing week

Roomy Riverview Cabin

Enjoyed our visit. Location was great, secluded and private. Great for our 2 small chihuahuas. Did miss the beautiful view of the mountains that we had while staying at the other two cabins.

Pretty nice, but a few cleanliness issues

Overall this is a decent cabin. Couldn't see the river too well from the cabin; maybe the view is better in the Fall. The main issue I had was the sheets had a musty smell. Also, for as much as the instructions say to leave the place clean, the dishes did not appear to be cleaned very well by the previous visitors. I also think some of the pots and pans are due to be replaced. That being said, I appreciated the quiet location and the rustic feel of the place. A nice place to put my feet up after a day hiking in Shenandoah.

Great location

We had a great time staying at the riverside cabin. It’s in a great location really close to a raft rental location, SkyLine Drive, and Front Royal. Close by you have Luray Caverns. The area is well shaded and has gravel roads. It’s a cabin so don’t expect perfection but it has everything that you need. We spent some great family quality time at the cabin and visiting local attractions and restaurants.

River Cabin

This is a nice cabin overlooking the river. It is very peaceful even considering nearby railroad. We didn't have much of a chance to enjoy the property because it rained most of the time we were there.

Loved this cabin

My wife and I stay in cabins often and this is by far one of the tops cabins we have ever been in. Overlooks the river from many view points, including the front porch. Easy parking, great fire pit, and it actually had a yard!

Great location!

We loved the seclusion of this cabin - easy to get to but it was far enough away from other cabins on the property to feel like we were by ourselves. Very cozy and we loved the fireplace!

Peace and serenity

This is a very well appointed cabin. It has a nice rustic feel, is very comfortable and very nicely located. It is secluded and has a nice open area and welcoming feel. R stone wood burning fireplace give a real sense of nostalgia and is a really excellent smenity. The cabin is just outside of the town of Front Royal, with easy access to national and state parks. We really enjoyed our stay.

Rustic Privacy

This property was as advertised. It is rustic but clean with up to date amenities. We especially appreciated the remote feel of the property while still being close to town. I removed 1 star for cleanliness because we had to clean the fireplace before using and we felt the coffee maker needed cleaning before we would use it. A quick run to town for vinegar allowed us to easily clean it up. Also, kitchen plates, utensils and flatware were fine but the commonly used pans were not. All in all, highly recommended if you like rustic feel with privacy in the woods.

Nice little getaway a few steps off the beaten path

This, rustic little cabin offered a quiet get away a few steps off of the beaten path. It was close to a grocery store and several dining options. There was plenty of firewood for a cozy fire. The Wi-Fi and dish TV were a plus.
