My trip started off rough — I was in a car accident on the way to the cabin — but the hosts at Golden Cabin Ridge were so kind and understanding. The cabin was peaceful, beautifully designed, and perfectly tucked away for a relaxing escape. Despite how it began, the weekend turned into exactly what I needed. I’ll definitely be back — this place might just be my go-to getaway!

The kitchen was well equipped, and we especially appreciated the bottle of olive oil on the counter, since we’d forgotten ours! There was plenty of space, both indoors and out. We’d love to stay again some time when the weather is warmer so that we could get more enjoyment from the outdoor facilities.

The cabin is a gem. It's super clean and cozy, and feels really secluded. The kitchen is well organized with plenty of materials, the living room offers a variety of games and entertainment for different group sizes and personalities, and the owners are very prompt and responsive. They even included a little white noise unit in the bedroom, which we didn't use but is something that stood out as a completely unnecessary but totally fitting touch that shows they pay attention to detail. I already mentioned the cleanliness, but it really was impressive just how clean they kept the property given it's in the middle of the woods.Important note: definitely pay attention to the entrance instructions they send you ahead of time! The direction that the GPS wants to take you is a bit precarious (we decided to check it out on our way out and I don't think it was worth it). I'm very grateful they warned us ahead of time because their alternate path is much better.

Wonderful cabin in a magical place

We had a totally wonderful stay at Golden Ridge Cabin! The cabin is so thoughtfully appointed; every detail is charming! It was stocked with all things we needed to make our time there comfortable and it is one of the cleanest rentals I have ever stayed at--not a small feat in the woods! The Rawley Springs location is perfect. I loved being walkable to the springs and having sweet Harrisonburg just a short and easy drive away. I hope we will be back!

Excellent, cozy getaway!

This was the perfect weekend getaway that we so needed! The cabin is cozy, welcoming, and quiet while still offering "creature comforts," such as TV, WiFi, central heating and air conditioning, etc. The kitchen has plenty of dishes, flatware, and cookware, and the gas stove is fabulous. Whomever decorated the cabin has great taste! Kurt, one of the hosts, was very communicative and helpful before, during, and after our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed the "Allegheny Special" train ride (Buckingham Branch Railroad), the Nu-Beginnings Farm Store in Staunton, and the Friendly City Food Co-op in Harrisonburg. Next time we're back, we want to check out Ruby's Arcade and the White Oak Lavender Farm and Vineyard.Overall, we would highly recommend Golden Ridge Cabin!

Beautiful cabin in the woods

My husband, daughter and I stayed here for 4 days during spring break. The cabin is beautiful and fully stocked with extra amenities to make it feel like home. The screened in porch was great for relaxing and we enjoyed the hammock. The kitchen is a good size, beds were very comfortable, the living room was spacious. We highly recommend this property! Kurtis was very attentive as well making sure we had everything we needed.

A quiet time in the woods

After an exciting holiday season I was looking forward to spending a few days alone in the quiet woods. This cabin was the perfect place. My only recommendation to anyone else, if there is a heavy snow then you will need a truck to get to the property because it is on the top of a hill. You can park at the bottoms of the hill and walk .2miles up, but the neighbors are pretty protective of the space and threatened to two my car. After explaining that my car belongs there, they were nice enough to let it stay :)
