Scot was very easy to communicate with throughout the booking, check in, and reaching out with concerns. Check in and check out were super easy. The cleanliness of the cabin left some to desire - cobwebs abundant in particular. We enjoyed the area and had fun fishing on the dock. The beds were comfortable, but if you're a light sleeper they are very squeaky which was hard for us. Overall, a small, quaint get away on the water. The ease of having a kitchen and place to relax after a fun day was a good choice for us. Tight for 5 of us though.

This was perfect for us. It is a small, cozy cabin with a great deck overlooking the water. The hot tub is perfect!!! Very clean. very nice. lots of places nearby to go for food and drinks. There is a steep walkway down to the cabin so if you have any medical issues, check into that. But it was perfect for 2 seniors and a dog. Thanks Scott!!!

Host was very responsive. Place was very clean. Everything was easy to find and worked well. It was the perfect size for our small family. The view is gorgeous. We kept saying how great this place would be in the warmer months on the river. Hot tub was the best part.

Lovely location which was perfect for a week of rest on our family holiday. The girls liked having space (using the loft area) and being able to go out on the river in the canoe was a great treat. Scot was a wonderful host.

Shenandoah river chalet

We were very pleased with the rental. It was clean comfortable and secluded which were all the things we were looking for. The large deck overlooking the river was a great place to relax to eat or just enjoy the solitude. The weather was perfect so that made it even more enjoyable.

Beautiful view! The hot tub was a nice way to relax after a challenging hike. The house met all of our needs, but was a little smaller than expected. The beds creaked a lot, and the doors didn't close easily. Overall we had a very nice and enjoyable stay.

Perfect cabin for family

This is the perfect cabin for a family getaway. You can not beat the location right on the water with a dock and canoe. Looking forward to coming back in the warmer months. Scot went above and beyond to make us feel welcome.

Long weekend

This trip was fantastic! It was myself, my spouse, and our two friends. Everything was exactly like the listing, and this is a a good fishing spot due to the easiest river access ever! We had some impressive catches too!! The hot tub was well kept, worked phenomenally, and was also very easy to access. This is also such a nice private area, and the fire pit was so fun for s’mores!

River Haven made a "Grandmother - mother - daughter weekend" amazing! The cabin was so cute and cozy and the beds were so comfortable. It was perfect for relaxing and "girl time". The hot tub was pretty awesome too! We will definitely be booking again! Thank you.
