Fish Trap cabin on the Shenandoah River





Fish Trap is the perfect location for a relaxing getaway! You can relax and chat with friends in the screened-in porch or roast marshmallows around the fire pit between the river and the cabin. Stacked, dried firewood is available for you to use for a small fee. Inside, you'll find a fully-equipped kitchen that flows into the dining area and living room complete with satellite and cable TV and gas fireplace. Rest up from a day of enjoying the great outdoors in one of the three comfortable bedrooms or in a chair on the large deck overlooking the river. The cabin also features wood flooring and trim, and tile floors in the modern, fully-furnished bathrooms. Outside, there's a gas grill for grilling hamburgers, a huge open yard and private river access for the vacation of your dreams!

We had a perfect weekend at this riverside gem! The location is stunning, right on the water with beautiful views and total peace and quiet. The cabin was immaculate, cozy, and had everything we needed. We loved the fire pit and direct river access. The host was communicative and helpful. It's the ideal spot to unwind and connect with nature. We can't wait to come back!

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.

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.

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.

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.

family vacation

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.

Nice quiet weekend

We had a very quiet weekend in the mountains to bring in the New Year. The house was clean and quaint as advertised . I think generally we received what we expected. Cell service was better than we feared. Opportunities for this rental would be more comfortable beds, and a better stocked kitchen. There were limited pots and pans and no can opener we could find which was a bit of a bummer when trying cook a meal with more than one dish.

Awesome Fall Family Get Away!

We truly enjoyed our time spent at the Fish Trap, as a family we try to get away from the hustle and bustle a few times a year and take time to enjoy each other. We rented several cabins in the area and especially enjoyed Fish Trap as it was right nest door to another rental that we had also rented. Our families could walk to each other's vacation homes and therefore share the campfire pit and extra quality time together. We didn't plan on sight seeing on this trip but we did venture into Luray Caverns for an afternoon. We enjoyed our time just hanging out together and along the river. The home was very well laid out and very convenient for our family. It was very clean and enjoyable. We used the grill and enjoyed the outdoor dining. We are hoping to go back next year.

Accurate Description..BUT

Overall the property is as described, however the cleanliness needs a bit of work. Spider webs all inside the house , dust so thick in some places we could write our names . The hot tub water had a green hue and obvious dirt in the bottom . Grill was left dirty from prior use , canoes and life jackets had obviously not been cleaned in a very long time .

Amazing location and stay!

We had an amazing stay at Fish Trap Cabin. The location and setting were nothing short of breathtaking! We enjoyed the hot tub, long afternoon bonfires, fishing in the river, hiking nearby and taking walks around the property. The home is very simply, but has what you need! The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked for us to cook every meal. The two small issues we had were that the fireplace didn't work when we followed the instructions provided (we needed more detailed instructions as the pilot was off), and the landline home phone did not work. Neither of these things would prevent us from returning, and we received immediate responses to our emails about the issues. But, since we didn't have cell service at all (and wifi was spotty), it would have been nice for the home phone to work in case of emergency.
