Captain's Lodge 15 Acres w/300 Meters Of Private Shenandoah Riverfront property

We just installed new water system for our well in 2020. The well water no longer smells of hard minerals(very healthy for you and higher PH than "Smart Water") like the other 1000 cabins in this county.
This is a 7 bedroom house with 3 living rooms, washer/dryer room (with 2 FRONT LOADER WASHER MACHINES), 3 decks, game room with pool table and jacuzzi room. Kitchen, dining room, 3 bathroom and a laundry room lodge on 15 acres with 250 meters of private riverfront property and a 1/3 mile long forested driveway. Direct TV, DSL (fastest internet in the area!) Internet, WIFI. The Lodge has custom-cut local wood trim and wall paneling made at our old fashion circular saw blade saw mill!!! Hardwood and tile flooring. Designed to be very rustic and authentic yet modern (with the newly installed central heat/ air conditioning for year round comfort). Watch the video of the view from the back deck! Two flat screen smart TV's (60' in the Living Room #1 and 50' in Game room ((*** Game room has 50' smart TV)!!! No Dogs allowed.

Local trails (Old Habron Gap, google it!) access the ridge of Massanutten Mountain within walking or you can drive the distance from Captain's Lodge on the Rapids! Some of the best single track switch back technical Mountain Biking are nearby. Luray Caverns is only 11 miles from Captain's Lodge on the Rapids; several other caverns are within driving distance.

Beautiful Location
Although the home was a little dated, we had a wonderful time together with plenty of space. The main room was large enough for everyone to be in w/o being crowded. The host responded quickly to any questions we had. I would recommend it to other large groups if you are not looking for new and modern.

Just what was needed
It was an amazing property. Secluded and quite just as advertised. The house and furniture are a little dated but for our group it was comfortable, we are not a group of fancy. Plus who cares, get out in nature and out of the house. Pool table and ping pong table were nice. Plenty of room and privacy for all guest. The outdoor setup with the open pedestal grill right next to the fire pit was amazing. We are already planning another trip. The price matched the property, the scenery alone was worth the price. There was no worry of waking neighbors so we could be as aloud as needed. The place was awesome and was just what we needed.

Indifference once we were there
The property itself is exactly as described our issues were with the management. We had asked for early check-in and (in writing) the request was granted. When we arrived there was no access to the property. Fine, I totally understand mistakes, and before long we did get access. But, because cell coverage is poor in the area, I also had someone else call to try and get help. She was told that I had never been given authorization to arrive early. Why do that? No one was mad, there was no reason to try to shift blame. Next, we discovered there were not enough sheets. We called and were told it would be taken care of. Night came, no sheets. The next night comes, no sheets. At 11:00PM, long after we were in bed on the SECOND night, the doorbell rings. It is the owner who now wants to talk about sheets. He specifically states that they did not leave enough sheets. (The reservation was for 19 people and they left enough sheets for 17 as long as every queen sized bed was used by 2. Not our situation.) and that he knew of the problem the night before. Why wake us up, with no sheets in hand, on our last night, to tell us they knew we did not have the sheets we needed? The next day, when I asked about waking us up to argue about sheets, I was given a brand-new tale via text-message. Suddenly the locked gate at arrival no longer seemed like a simple mistake but part of a pattern of indifference. The house was perfect but the management of the property was not what we expected.

Why they chose this property

There is no other house this grand on the river in the Shenandoah Valley! 95% of the rental houses in the Shenandoah Valley are 1, 2 or 3 bedrooms only. This gem has 7 bedrooms and 3 living rooms and a huge game room and a Jacuzzi room plus dining room and 2 decks and 15 acres with no neighbors seen from anywhere on our 15 acre property. Adjacent to George Washington National Forrest and adjacent to the South Fork Shenandoah River. We own the two lots adjacent up river so there is an abundance of private property that buffers you from any humans!!! The only people you may see are canoeing down the river at the bottom of your football field back yard. This house is less than 1 mile from Shenandoah River Canoe Outfitters. There have been more than a dozen wineries start ups in the last decade in this county. More than half a dozen bike races too and or triathlons.

What makes this property unique

Sleeps up to 23 people. The rental has 15 acres with no neighbors!!! Driveway is 1/3 mile long... 800 feet of private riverfront and we own the other 800 feet of private riverfront above that! So, for Real, there are No Neighbors. Unique!
