About this property
The Great Escape - Near everything yet off the beaten path
Located in the Shenandoah Valley our cabin is located on a quiet street on a 1/2 acre lot. The backyard is fenced for big and small dogs. On the back porch is a nice gas grill. A few steps down is a hot tub. The hot tub is nice especially when returning home from a day of hiking in the Shenandoah National Park which is only 20 minutes away. Inside the home are two bedrooms, each with a king size bed. We furnish wireless internet and satellite TV. I will email you a list of activities that are all close to our cabin. There is something for everyone at The Great Escape.

Beautiful well stocked clean cabin. Host were very nice and quick to respond to any questions! Very quiet area. Central location for area. Within an hour of Monticello and Staunton. Would definitely recommend staying here!
The cabin was very clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed for a wonderful trip. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. We would come back if we visited the area again.
The cabin was very comfortable with a modern kitchen comfy beds, nice bathrooms. It was clean with good linens on the beds. And towels in the bathrooms. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch enjoying the birdsong in the morning and the frogs in the evening.
Property is in immaculate condition! Super clean, everything provided. Fenced in back yard is great for our dogs. We enjoyed our stay so much! Thank you for sharing this property!
Very clean, had everything we needed, and no issues! Location was great for seeing a variety of spots throughout the Shenandoah area. We brought our 1 year old daughter here and the cabin was safe and kid friendly!
One of my best ever VRBO experiences! This is a lovely, well-designed house with top-notch kitchen appliances, nice porch & deck, gas grill & hot tub. We were two older couples getting together and going to see the sights in Shenandoah National Park. For hikers, there's an entrance to George Washington National Forest just a few yards from the house. The hosts were gracious, helpful and very responsive. Highly recommend this VRBO!
I stayed here with my dog for 3 nights and we absolutely loved it! The neighborhood is nice and quiet and the views from the cabin and the street are breathtaking. The cabin is well stocked with everything one could need and the fenced yard was great for my dog!
The cabin and grounds were extremely neat and clean. Host tried to think of everything imaginable to make your stay comfortable. Was very happy to see the backyard so closely fenced in. I have little dogs and was afraid they could escape, but it was very secure. Neighbors are a lot closer than I anticipated but it wasn’t a problem. Lots of loose dogs walking around this relatively rural neighborhood. that was my only knock on the property. Recommended it to my daughter for the fall.
This home is simply perfect. Clean, cozy, and charming. Sumptuous beds and linens, the hot tub under the stars, and morning coffee on the porch. It was just what we needed. Our hosts were on top of everything, including my request that the AC be on when we arrived on a hot afternoon. Thanks, Don and Lina
Hosts were very responsive and the cabin was more spacious, brighter, and cleaner than we expected from the pictures! Beautiful cabin with lots of pet toys, wipes, etc. Good dining table for boardgames. Our company had a great weekend.
The property was perfect for our stay in the area for a family wedding. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The beds were super comfortable! Would definitely stay again if in the area!
