Riverfront Farmhouse with Mountain Views, Hot Tub, Fireplace, Screen Porch, WIFI

This a a perfect retreat for our busy family. Easy access to daytime excursions, while we could start the day watching the deer while we drank coffee, and closed the day with fishing by the river and finally a relaxing sit in the hot tub.

Last year same week we stayed at Star View and it made us NEED to come back for more !!! This year we opted for the Farmhouse to change it up a bit and see what Nina’s other property had to offer and let me tell you it ABSOLUTELY DID NOT DISSAPOINT !!! So much character and charm , exactly what you would expect from a “Farmhouse” !!! From the tall ceilings, original wood floors , exposed stone fireplaces , and metal roof the whole feel and experience were one my family will not soon forget !!! Weather didn’t agree for much river time but we all took advantage of the enormous screened porch to read , drink coffee , and be lulled to naps by the rain on the metal roof !!! Spotless upon arrival and well stocked !!! Close and convienient in either direction (Luray / Front Royal ) for shopping, restaurants , or whatever you may need. We hiked , read , explored the property , and fully recharged our batteries , now it’s back to reality until we return , and return we will , Nina is a fantastic host and obviously cares about her clients as much as she does her property!!! Don’t hesitate to stay , just not the same week we want to haha ! See you next year , if we can hold out that long !

We enjoyed our stay for the week at the farmhouse. The house is much bigger than it appears and with only two of us staying there we had room to roam. We spent a lot of time on the front porch as its screened in protecting us from the bugs. We took the short walk down to the river almost every afternoon to float in the tubes we brought along. We learned quickly to use a rope to tie yourself off or you will be down the river before you know it. We did use a local tube/kayak outfitter one day who set us up with a 3 hour tube trip down the river. Great way to relax on a hot day. We also toured Skyline Drive for a few days on our motorcycles. We made use of the hot tub and firepit and enjoyed that. The only slight issue we had was the driveway had new stone put on it recently making it tough to get our motorcycles up and down it as its quite steep. I'm sure that after a few weeks when the driveway is settled that won't be an issue.

Overall if you are looking for a secluded vacation spot this is it. We didn't see a single person all week while we were at the farmhouse. I pretended there was no wifi even though there is. No work emails for a week !!!! Also ATT signal doesn't work there so no phone calls !!! Most relaxing vacation in a long time.

This property is just 30 minutes or less away from all the area attractions. We enjoyed access to the river, hay meadows that lure deer and other wildlife in the early a.m., a cave and some old outbuildings. We liked the fire pit near the house and enjoyed sitting out on the porch in the mornings. We enjoyed a 3 mile tube ride down the river, horseback riding, zip lining, tree top trek, winery visit and dinner out at an elegant inn, and Luray Caverns. Visited New Market and civil war field of lost shoes battleground. . It has something for everyone.

The farmhouse met all of our expectations--clean, quiet, lots of space inside to spread out, responsive host ...a beautiful setting with lots of fun activities and places to explore nearby. Thank you!
