Tavern River Cabin is a riverfront cabin located at the Shenandoah River's edge just outside the town of Luray and is centrally located to all activities such as Skyline Drive hiking, Luray Caverns, canoeing, horseback riding, vineyards in every direction and much more.

This authentic circa 1700’s river front log cabin, comes complete with an enormous gorgeous stone wood burning fireplace (wood supplied seasonally), super therapeutic 7 person hot tub outside with stunning river views, antique plank floors throughout, country porches, and is merely steps into the Shenandoah River. This cabin has very easy and convenient access to the town of Luray, grocery stores, restaurants, etc.

It has a fantastic new very large observation dock/deck just above the river with splendid views and easy access to river for fishing and swimming. There's a walking low water bridge for wading across river in summer. It's also a 100 year old fishing spot. The antique chandeliers on dimmers with skylights are an extra added touch. Simply Charming!!!

NOTE: MINIMAL STAYS: It is a two night minimal stay with the exception of federal holidays which are a three night minimal stay.







The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a fireplace, a coffee maker, and a dining table.

The cabin was amazing along with the river and hot tub. It was very welcoming and homey as soon as you walk through the door. It was a relaxing weekend away with great views. The old time feel took us back in time and made for a great experience.

Hidden Gem in the Forrest!

Cute little property, take lots of bug spray! Hot tub is relaxing. If you take your dogs, just be careful if they are not dog friendly, as sometimes the neighbor dogs come onto the property. The town is extremely dog friendly too!

I would suggest it only be rented in fall, summer, or spring. It has an air conditioner in a window and that permits very cold air into the living area. But it is adorable.

Dog restrictive

Based on all the warnings framed around the house people in the past must have been destructive to the place. Unfortunately, it is like the grandmother whose nickname is no-no “don’t touch anything”. The cabin itself is fantastic and for a couple with no dogs would be great. We had a 2 day and just left after the first as the place is nice but no way we could guarantee no dog hair.

Unfortunate

Drive to the cabin and surrounding area is beautiful. Upon arrival, found bed had no sheets and bathroom had no towels which I paid extra for. Expressed to owner these weren’t provided, she brought two towels for two people for a 5 day stay…told us if we need more, we can purchase at Walmart. Don’t count on the coin laundry…that’s in town, not on premises which is listed in rental amenities. Deck has areas of severe rot…watch where you step….especially around the hot tub. Pet friendly..? No pets allowed on furniture! Make sure they’re bathed and brushed before you get there, and make sure you leave no dog hair behind…you will be charged extra for cleaning if there is…that is stated in the rule book, which is a good read. The cabin itself is beautiful. It would have been nice if the outside of the deck and property were cleaned up. Be aware that the property owners live right next door. The worst thing was on the last day, we got up early to dispose of our trash as per the rules…we were gone for 20 minutes to come back to find that the owner was inside the cabin… with our belongings. We took care of the trash at 8 am, check out is 11 am. That is just wrong and made us feel very violated!

Wonderful cabin

The cabin was great for a couple. The rustic feel of the cabin, the fireplace, hot tub, and sitting on the deck by the river. Most everything was great, but my only complaint was the quality of the mattress on the bed. It was very soft with a noticeable dip in the middle. As a side sleeper, it was uncomfortable and had to sleep on my back. Otherwise, great place and grear location!

Amazing views!!

This house was just the coolest with its vintage log cabin vibe, and the gigantic fireplace was such a hit for my husband and I! It was so cozy and warm, and we loved, listening to the rapids right outside the screen door. Chemicals in the hot tub We’re pretty strong tho.. the steam was actually stinging my eyes and nose. Other than that everything was just perfect.

Lovely cabin on the river

The cabin was exactly as described/pictured. Perfect location. Only issue, which wasn't too bad was no internet and the TV was broken during our stay. Not a big deal, but I had planned to do a little work while there. Other than that, A LOT of rules, posted in all CAPS with !!!!!. A little much. Nicer more friendly ways of getting your information across. I felt like I was stepping on eggshells with everything I touched or opened. If none of that bothers you, it really was a lovely weekend there with my mom. Great memories were made!
