We had the absolute best stay at Marley's Cabin as a close-to-home spring break with our three kids! This is definitely the kind of property that isn't just for show. The couches and the beds were so comfy, and the views were stunning...which was exactly what we were hoping for! I personally work in the real estate industry and I know how many short-term rentals are out there with flashy photos for clicks, but once you arrive you realize it's not what it seemed and/or the actual comfort of the stay wasn't factored in. This is NOT that kind of property! The house feels like a cozy retreat in all the best ways, the kitchen is well stocked, the hot tub and house are both clean, and it just feels like a space that the owners genuinely care about (and for). We loved exploring the nearby breweries and we took some amazing hikes. The house is positioned so that you feel insanely private while still being a two minute drive to Fire and Frost (awesome pizza). Would happily return!

The house is warm and inviting, incredibly clean, and very well suited for gatherings of family and friends. The views are simply amazing from every room in the house and two levels of decks. There are great hikes and easy walks close by. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare simple snacks or a 5-course meal. Plus, there are great options for dine-in or take-out on the mountain or down in the VA-151 corridor. Marley's Cabin is truly a four-season destination. We can't wait to return!

Great location. Excellent mountain views from inside the house and on the deck. Great house design. Excellent for socializing with friends and family. Great hosts.Unfortunately being listed as "No Pets Allowed" does not mean that there have not been owners pets in the house. Multiple evidences of pets having been in the house and our family has significant allergies. We only stayed one night out of 13 planned.Also beware of VRBO statement of "Upfront pricing" and "All Fees Included". NOT TRUE. Our total cost included a Stay Tax of 854 which did not appear in the price quoted for the stay.

Marley’s Cabin

Beautiful home and views. Host’s are very organized, take pride in their property, and are prompt with all communications. They take a genuine interest to ensure your satisfaction, but are not intrusive. Although our stay was on the pricier side of what I wanted to spend, I didn’t regret splurging as my entire family was thoroughly satisfied with what this home offered.

Family Nature Stay at marley’s Cabin

We had a family get away with my son and wife his two small children and it was everything we hoped for. The house was spacious, well appointed with everything we needed, the view was breathtaking! There were fabulous hiking trails nearby leading to Upper Shamokin Falls that were amazing and delighted young and old and were full of natural wonders. And a fabulous hot tub and view to soak tired muscles afterwards! We can’t wait to come back!

Fall vacation

My family and I had a wonderful week at Marley’s cabin. The house was beautiful and the layout well thought out for the five of us. The view is incredible; it was the best view we saw all week! We loved sitting outside and enjoying the peace and quiet of the area. We also loved the hot tub, fireplace, and huge tv in the living area. Shannon and John were very easy to communicate with and thought of everything we would need for the week. To end our amazing week, we had a perfect view of the northern lights from our back deck :) thank you to the hosts for an amazing week of relaxation!

Our Second Home

The stay at Marley’s Cabin is never anything short of perfect. Beautiful home in a gorgeous setting. Whether we’re out and about hiking, visiting vineyards and breweries or just relaxing with a cup of coffee while sitting in the rocking chair on the porch overlooking an incredible Mountain View…it’s everything we could ever ask for and it’s why we keep coming back every year. It’s a non-negotiable on our calendar now. John and Shannon are tremendous to work with and communicate. They’ll give you space if you want it, but prepared to help and answer any questions at any time with you. They’re the best!

Annual Fall Getaway

My wife and I return to this property and location every year. It’s truly become a home away from home for us. It’s a can’t miss location and quickly become your new “happy place”. If you love to hike check out Sugar Mill Reservoir’s two hikes…in the summer you can cool off and swim in the blue hole / waterfall at end of hike. If want a more challenging hike check out Spy Rock. The trail to the summit is worth the time and effort and the 360-degree views are some of the best we’ve seen in the area. If you love wine you’re in the right spot. Countless gorgeous vineyards. Some of our favorites include Kings Family, Pollack Family and 12 Ridges. John & Shannon are 5-Star hosts and will make sure you feel right at home during your stay. Don’t hope you find a good place…stay at Marley’s Cabin. It’s second to none!

A slice of heaven!!

Second visit to Marley’s Cabin and will happily keep coming back! It’s the perfect getaway with friends or family, but don’t be fooled by the word cabin. It is spacious, yet cozy with a big stone fireplace to gather around and play games, soak in a hot tub, share meals around the dining room table, enjoy the game room, and much more. The main deck is a great place to have coffee in the morning and watch the most amazing sunrise over the valley or have drinks in the evening and see a breathtaking sunset over the mountains or stargaze. John and Shannon are fantastic hosts. They are very responsive and provided great recommendations, including local transportation for our wine tours, and left a local guide book for us to review. The cabin is very clean, organized, and well-maintained. It feels like home. Can’t wait to go back!! Thank you for a wonderful time!!!

Amazing House

This home has the wow factor. As you walk through there are views of the mountains to the east everywhere. There was even a little Happy Birthday tiara left out for my daughter. It's about a 7 minute drive to the ski area, restaurants and tubing. Other impressive items were the quality of the bedding, cool gaming chairs, numerous gathering areas, the organization of the kitchen and the privacy of the third floor master suite. The highlight of that suite should be the jetted tub, except that gets outshined by the steam shower. There is one issue the owners need to address and that is that the hot water heater is inadequate for a three bathroom. It sleeps 8 but you've got about 20 minutes of total shower time before you are out of hot water. I was there with 6 teenage girls so you can imagine. Also that beautiful two person jetted tub will only get about 2 inches of water before the hot water is gone. I'm hoping the owners will get a tankless or more robust unit, because everything else with this house is aces!
