Jim is a great, attentive host! Appreciate the information notebook in the cabin, offering good suggestions regarding groceries, places to eat, hikes to take, and contact numbers in case of emergency. The property is beautiful, secluded, and peaceful.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at the cabin. The historic cabin next door, the ponds, walking paths, and sound of the mountain stream all made for a serene environment that we didn’t want to leave. The cabin itself had everything we could have needed and more - very comfortable. Being within walking distance of popular hikes where parking is normally difficult was also a luxury.

Highly unusual property in a good way! One with nature, clean, well equipped, even internet in the middle of the forest! Kitchen is well stocked with pots, utensils, the quality of linen is excellent. Communications are perfect, to the point and precise. The informational booklet in the house has everything you need to know. The only suggestion I would have is about which part of the old rag trail you take from.. It is not the entrance from Nethers. Overall could not be better! Thank you Jim

Perfect for a Winter Get-A-Way

Within 30 minutes of my arrival the first evening, it started to snow. It continued to snow all night long and into the morning. When I woke-up I was in awe because the snow was so beautiful and the cabin so charming. I felt like I was smack, dab in the middle of a Norman Rockwell painting. The trip was very relaxing and the owner very responsive.

Serenity defined

Very charming cottage, extremely well situated for outdoorsy pursuits in Shenandoah National Park and beyond. The photographs don't do this place justice: The floorplan is absolutely huge, with a tremendous great room and a very spacious bedroom. The building's exterior is delightfully rustic, while the interior exudes a great deal of mid-century charm. Everything was immaculately clean, with lots of thoughtful touches everywhere. The well-equipped kitchen, heavy-duty air-conditioning, and carefully curated collection of books and brochures made this a wonderful getaway. So close to major cities, while so far away from the din of civilization. We look forward to returning!

Fun for Small Family!

Mom, Dad, 2 boys (1st and 2nd grade) stayed at the cabin and we were able to experience a great deal! Isolated enough, so you don't see other people unless you head out to the road to see an occasional hiking group. Convenience store down the mountain about 10mins. Pond had some trout and perch. Campfire spot allowed us to make s'mores! Saw a duck, a few deer, a turkey and a hawk, and one small water snake. Comfy beds and lots of streaming options on TV when we needed a break from the outdoors. Open area provided opportunities to stargaze, but we missed out due to a cloudy weekend. Kids didn't want to leave. Had to promise them we would return for another vacation in the future!
