If you’re looking to get away and just enjoy the quiet of the country with friends and family or alone, this is the place for you. Annette clearly knows the meaning of relaxation and is very responsive. Everything from the house aesthetic to the beautiful view from the hot-tub. It was extremely clean and we grilled all weekend and enjoyed walking around the property and going to see the ponds and river nearby. 10/10 must stay!

We had a wonderful stay at the Luray Cabin. It was incredibly cozy and comfortable, and it truly felt like a home away from home. The cabin was very well appointed with everything we needed, and the location was extremely convenient for exploring the area. Everything was clean, thoughtfully set up, and easy to settle into. We would absolutely stay here again.

Absolutely beautiful view. Annette responded quickly to any questions I had. The driveway was a little tricky for me though. Driving a super cab long bed 350 made it so i couldn't back into the driveway, and due to it being snowy, i did have to use 4H to backout of the driveway. Otherwise, the cabin was very clean and spacious. There were plenty of plates, silverware, pots, pans etc... in case you need them.

Cabin had character and had everything you needed. Beds were very comfortable. Enjoyed hearing the Rooster crowing across the road every morning when I was outside drinking coffee. Luray is a good central location close to Skyline Drive and less than hours drive to Belle Grove Plantiion, Monticello, and Civill War battles. We hit the peak of the Fall Folige so all our drives were wonderful.

This was a project... although the end result - absolutely beautiful, with lots of customized features thru out our cabin. I started this project because I was taking care of my Mom and I needed to hire additional help...so we decided to restore this 1850's originally built cabin ... Charlotte G Kibler (my mother) passed away before I was finished however I know she would be proud of how it has turned out...I have designed cabin to accomodate the elderly and handicapped. We all need a vacation...It is hard taking care of your loved ones and this is when you deserve the vacation the most. So bring all and all will be comfortable...

Why they chose this property

I decided on this property for renovation because of the historic uniqueness and where it is located.

What makes this property unique

It's totally unique - there are so many benefits in staying here to list a few: private yet close to everything....
romantic....
handicap accessible....
Originally built in the 1850's - date is still in the original chinking made of horse hair...just to list a few
