About this property
Mountain cabin w/hot tub & river views
Summary:
Experience a cozy mountain retreat at Ellery Cottage, where fresh air, starry skies, and peaceful woods welcome you year‑round. Starlit hot tub evenings and cozy fire pits await after river adventures.
- Sleeps 10 | 3 bedrooms | 5 beds | 2 baths
- Outdoor hot tub, fire pit & backyard
- Single‑level w/ private entrance & easy access
- Fully equipped kitchen, TV & WiFi
- Washer/dryer, central heat & A/C
- Family‑friendly & pet‑friendly (dogs welcome)
The Space:
A quiet mountain morning greets you as steam rises from the hot tub and the Shenandoah Valley stretches beyond the trees. Cool air carries birdsong, and the stillness of nature invites you to slow down and breathe. Inside, the single‑level cottage feels instantly welcoming, with natural light spilling over comfortable seating and a fully equipped kitchen ready for your meals. Whether you unwind under the stars or relax after a day of exploring, the space makes it easy to settle in and feel at home.
Sleeping arrangements
The cottage comfortably sleeps up to 10 guests across three bedrooms and a living area. One bedroom offers a queen bed. The other two bedrooms each feature a queen/twin bunk bed, providing flexible sleeping options for families or groups. In the living room, a pull‑out sofa adds additional sleeping space. Bed linens, extra pillows, and blankets are supplied for crisp mountain nights.
Living space
Single‑level living and a private entrance mean no stairs to navigate. The main living area is designed for gathering, with abundant natural light, comfortable seating, and a TV for relaxed evenings of streaming. Wi‑Fi is available, though service can occasionally be slower or spotty due to the remote mountain location. Central heating and air conditioning keep the interior comfortable year‑round.
Kitchen & dining
The kitchen is fully equipped for home‑cooked meals, from hearty breakfasts to cozy dinners. All essential cookware, dishes, and utensils are provided, allowing you to enjoy meals together without leaving the property. A dining table nearby makes it easy to share food and conversation.
Outdoor living
Even in winter, the outdoor spaces invite you to step outside. The hot tub is a year‑round favorite, perfect for soaking under the open sky after a chilly day. A backyard and deck provide room to spread out, while a fire pit offers a warm spot to gather in the evenings. A grill is available for outdoor cooking when the weather permits.
Family & pet friendly
Children’s books, toys, and dinnerware are provided, making the cottage welcoming for families. Dogs are welcome, and the spacious yard gives them room to play. Cats are not allowed due to allergies.
Practical comforts
A washer and dryer, bathroom essentials, and a bathtub make longer stays easy. Free parking on the premises, a lockbox for self check‑in, and a quiet, private entrance add flexibility and ease to your arrival.
Neighborhood & attractions
The Shenandoah River is a short walk away, offering scenic views in every season. Downtown Luray and the famous Luray Caverns are about a ten‑minute drive, with local restaurants, breweries, shops, and seasonal festivals nearby. Shenandoah National Park and surrounding mountain scenery are close, providing an ideal base for exploring the area.

About the host
Hosted by Tony Cappaert
I live in DC with my wife and three young kids. I love camping/hiking, drinking (and sometimes brewing) great beer and wine, exploring new restaurants and shops, and traveling all over.
Why they chose this property
We spent years searching for the perfect getaway, and wanted to be close enough to DC that we could do a day trip. We fell in love with the area – and Ellery Cottage in particular. We love how cute and cozy our cabin is, and all the fun outdoor activities we can enjoy year-round. :)
