About this property
Serene mountain getaway / Beautiful Views / Dog friendly
Escape to Vista Grande, a peaceful, pet-friendly cabin nestled amidst the stunning Blue Ridge Mountains. Enjoy breathtaking views from private decks, relax in the swinging chairs on the covered patio, unwind in the whirlpool tub, and roast s’mores by the fire pit. With hiking, kayaking, and Shenandoah River Outfitters just a stone’s throw away, Vista Grande offers the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation.
Dog friendly so your furry travel companion (2 max) are welcome to join the adventure ($60 flat pet fee per stay - no nightly charges).
This cozy mountain retreat in Luray, comfortably sleeps up to six guests. Enjoy breathtaking mountain views from the dining room deck, kitchen window, and a private bedroom deck - the perfect way to start your morning with coffee and fresh Shenandoah Valley air. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need for home-cooked meals, and the outdoor grill makes dining al fresco easy. In the evenings, gather around the backyard fire pit for s’mores and stargazing.
The home is located in a quiet neighborhood and while the property isn’t fully secluded, the wooded surroundings and nearby vacation homes create a peaceful, private feel.
Traveling with a larger group? Our neighboring property, Acorn Hill, also sleeps six. The homes are separated by a wooded lot—close enough for an easy walk between them, yet spaced far enough apart to enjoy your own privacy

We LOVED our stay here! The house is in a great neighborhood and has epic views off the two little balconies, which really added to the mountain experience! Great communication from the owners made checking in and out a breeze! We'd love to come back here!
The Vista Grande was just what our little family needed for our short get away. The view is worth the lengthy drive away from town. It had everything you needed available. Communication with the hosts was easy and they were readily available if any issues came up. Would definitely recommend to anyone who needs to get in touch with nature.

Perfect for what we were looking for.
Great getaway! Loved having our dogs there with us and the views were amazing!
The cabin was very clean and well kept. The view was perfect! Our family had a wonderful time visiting. It was a little drive from town/trails but we enjoyed the quiet of the property while there!
Vista Grande was a great place to stay for my fall birthday. It afforded the perfect scenic getaway. Views were beautiful and it was conveniently located close to Luray Caverns as well as numerous hiking trails and cute towns to explore.
Easy check in and out. Very clean. Beautiful views.

Great stay
My friends and I had a great time staying at the Vista Grande. The cabin was perfect, just as described, and the views were amazing. David and Becky were responsive and available if we needed anything. We'll definitely be making a trip back!
Becky and David are wonderful hosts and will definitely make sure you have everything you need. The cabin was as described, overall very clean and the perfect size for our family and dog. We all really enjoyed our stay. We loved being able to look out and see mountains and my kids loved the hammock chairs!
This place was so wonderful. It had everything we needed and the hammock swings were a huge hit with everyone. I had to alter our plans and the owners were wonderful to work with, very accommodating. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a quiet get away in the mountains!
We spent the weekend with our family coming to Shenandoah for the Good Ol' Boys Fest and decided that a cabin for the weekend would be better than a motel and we were right. We loved the cabin, the view and feeling like we were at home.
