Super cute place and great fishing. Lots of fun fishing with Ultra light gear. Smallmouth, Bluegill and even some Red Eye Bass which I did not think came this far north.
Fun little place to base from. Especially enjoyed the water and fire pit.

Weekend Getaway
This place is Super Cute and a great getaway. It was just my wife and I so the small space was perfect. Great fishing particularly with ultra light gear. Lots of smallmouth, bluegill and even a few Red Eyed bass. The host us very nice. The only thing to note is if you are over 6'5" tall, the ceilings might be too low.
We absolutely loved our stay at this adorable cabin! It was in a peaceful spot far enough from town to feel secluded, yet close enough for a quick trip to the grocery store, the caverns, or Shenandoah National Park.The retro decor is a delightful touch—colorful, nostalgic, and super well done. The deck overlooking the pond was the perfect spot to have breakfast and coffee.Sarah was a very helpful and personable host! She even checked in on us the day after travel because I had let her know we had trouble with our rental car! Highly recommend this cabin for for a relaxing and stylish escape near all the best of Luray!
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at the Creekside Retreat. It had all the comforts of home and was close to hiking and our visit to Luray Caverns.
The property was great! We went canoeing and hung out in the creek with the cows quite a bit. Pretty secluded with only one neighbor across the street. It's completely renovated and you can tell a lot of work was put into the property. My only complaint was that only 1 of the 2 ACs were running when we arrived and it was only set at 79. We arrived after a long day of hiking at SNP, hoping to cool off, shower, and relax, but it took 7 HOURS to get the trailer to a reasonable temperature, and it wasn't until the NEXT MORNING that the bedroom finally cooled off. Nothing worse than sweating all day, taking a shower, drying off, and then immediately starting to sweat again.
We had a great time staying at the property with our dog. We were in town to do some hiking in Shenandoah national park and this was the perfect location that gave us easy driving access to the park and then a comfortable place to hang out after a long day of hiking. We will definitely be back!

Bright Cheery Stay
This tiny house was bigger than we thought it would be, particularly between the two main beds. We were happy to be able to fit a pack and play there during the day for our almost-2-year-old, and move it to the living room overnight. Our contact for the property was also very responsive via text message.We were sad to miss the cows and frogs this time, but very happy to have a bright and cheery place to call home during a cold and cloudy weekend. We still managed to feed the goats at Massanutten Country Corner, picnic at Birdsong Gardens, and brunch at Mimslyn Inn, so a great weekend overall!
We loved our stay! The check in process was easy and the cabin was so cute. It was stocked with many of the necessities such as cooking utensils and towels. If we come back to Luray we will definitely be staying here again!
We had a great stay! The drive to Luray caverns, skyline cavers, and different parts of Shenandoah National Park weren't bad at all. The whole place just felt nostalgic, cozy, and comfortable.
Great place to stay and relax. We came to VA for high school graduation. This little place was perfect for spending a day with our grandkids while we were there. We all enjoyed playing by the water and just being together.
We had a great stay. Storm came through and we lost power for about 12 hours. Stayed in communication with the owner and the stay was still super smooth and we had a great time. The fishing was excellent after the waters calmed down from the storm!
Quiet and calm area. Interior is nice. Maintenance is good. Host was very nice before we arrived there she let us know that how to e weather was .
We love to stay there.
We enjoyed our stay so much and are so grateful for such a good experience with our first vrbo! They had every possible amenity you could think of and then some. The property manager was so kind and helpful, the home was clean and fun, and we were even lucky enough to be greeted by the cows across the river when we first arrived. Nothing but good things to say about our stay, and we would love to go back!
Very clean. And nicely decorated. Contained all the amenities you would need. The host was very nice

The property was very cozy, neat and clean. Sarah was a great host. Located between Luray and Front Royal, we were able to visit both towns as well as the Shenandoah River State Park. We will definitely be back!
My husband and I absolutely loved our stay. This is actually one of my favorite areas, not far outside of Luray. You are out of the way, but still plenty close to town, and Skyline Drive 😊 My husband said this was his favorite place that we have stayed at to date. We will definitely be back.
This little getaway was perfect for my dog and I. It is within 20-30 min of two separate entrances to Shenandoah. It was clean and had everything we needed. You would never guess you were staying in a trailer.

Wonderful Place to Stay!!
We loved the house!!! It was so peaceful and quiet; the creek was also a wonderful added bonus! The house was clean and had all the amenities of home. The host went above and beyond to make our stay as pleasant as possible. Before we even arrived, she texted to let us know that she had left an extra heater because we were supposed to have some cold nights during our stay. She even texted a couple times to check on us throughout our stay! I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone that asked!!
Perfect little eclectic place. Lost power went to neighbors who were incredibly friendly and helpful. Close to the sights i wanted to see. Cows came to visit across the creek. I loved it!!!!
We loved the river and the hiking. The State and National Parks were visited repeatedly. Enjoyed visiting Luray Caverns and Montpelier. Great time of year to visit as places were not crowded and the weather was perfect. At Creekside we enjoyed campfires, the bird feeder, the frint porch and back deck. Sarah was fun.
An excellent use of a smaller space with not a single problem at all during our stay! Really enjoyed the area and surrounding areas. So much to explore and see. Loved the property and watching the cows come down to the river multiple times during our stay!! Thank you!
This was a quiet, scenic and well appointed property. Our host was even kind enough to offer assistance when my car needed a jump. Something she found was happening from the neighbor. Great sense of community, great hospitality. The cows on the adjacent property behind the creek would walk down and graze and drink from the creek. It was magic. Thank you again.
