Lovely little cabin. Bed was super comfy. Had a great stay met a little black cat on the deck. Was so nice to get away in the piece and quite and enjoy the stars you can’t see in the city.
Kenneth was an incredible host. Very clear instructions for check-in and check-out. Responsive to any and all needs we had. Incredible property that is well maintained and orderly. Beautiful views. All in all an amazing experience that I would recommend to anyone looking to get away.
A cozy little place with a very nice bed and gorgeous views! The fire pit is great for evening relaxation. We met some of the local turkeys, cats and chickens while watching the sun come up. Hiking was, of course, amazing in the area, and all of the caverns are such a wild and awe-inspiring experience. I expect we will be back!
The cabin was very nice and private. A little farther from SNP than expected. VRBO lists it as Lurey while it’s really a Shenandoah address. Appreciated the cleanliness and comfort of the house.

This little cabin is amazing. I look forward to going back for more RnR
A perfect place for someone vacationing alone or for a couple. Its cozy and pretty quiet, and its close enough to Shenandoah Park thats its not really a slog to get anywhere. Overall a great place for anyone looking to explore the Shenandoah region.
This is a great little cabin in the Shenandoah! It was clean and cozy and, as a woman traveling alone, was remote enough to feel like a getaway without feeling too isolated. Definitely recommend!
Overall it was an excellent stay! Very cleanly and cute place. Had everything we needed provided for linens and kitchen supplies! Very nice views of the mountains and not too far of a drive for all the activities in the area. Only thing we had an issues with was a hornets nest is the outdoor pergola. But other than that it was perfect! Recommend to anyone looking for a quiet and relaxing getaway.
This little cabin is cute as can be, and I love the location. It’s close enough to all the things to do in Luray, and The Skyline Drive. It was very clean and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay again 😊
