Property was absolutely perfect! Our stay was more than we could have asked for. The house had everything one needed. Ten of us stayed for the weekend. The five grands LOVED the loft that allowed them all to hang together after a day in the river! Beautiful views of the river from decks. The fire pit at the river's edge was probably the hit of the weekend. Nothing like a bonfire and looking at the beautiful moon reflecting on the river. You won't regret staying here!!!

This wonderful house is a well stocked river lodge built for large families. It truly has everything you need in a vacation home. Multiple fridges, large kitchen and living area, lots of beds and baths. House is perfect for those who love the outdoors and the shenandoah river. River frontage is challenging to access the water, steep drop, but ramp access is very close.

Awesome Home Wonderful Location

Everything was perfect! My only complaint is the kitchen was dirty and the dishwasher was full of water. Sticky counters and we kept the dishwasher closed. I'd still rate this home a 10 out of 10. Exceeded our expectations with location, amenities and space for multi generation families. space

Disliked: Cleanliness

Jennifer was an absolute pleasure to deal with. She answered all my questions super fast and was extremely happy to help. The cleanliness of the home couldve been a tad better,there was lots of food on the door of the fridge and the fridge required a wipe down until i was comfortable putting our food in. There was dust on one of the beds that i guess had not been used by previous guests so was not fresh linen. We did unfortunately cut our trip short because the loft was absolutely not usable for sleeping do to extreme humidity and heat,and we were a bit cramped without that area for sleeping. Its possible it was due to high summer temperatures and the separate AC unit was not able to keep up. We did try keeping the door closed with the AC running but that still didnt help.

We had a great bachlorette weekend! They had multiple kayaks aind many tubes. We put the tubes in..up from the cabin and floated back down river to the cabin. Lots of supplies in the kitchen including smore items! The 2 yr.old loved the swings and toys. We'd love to come back! Jennifer was very generous with arrival and checkout times since no one was scheduled after us. Wash clothes were not provided, but plenty of towels.

Great experience!

This river house was well stocked. We all had plenty of room. The kids enjoyed the big swing, the bonfire, fishing and playing down by the river catching crawfish and water bugs. We enjoyed tubing down the river, so fun! Several took kayaks out. All furnished by the owners. We will definitely be going back. We stayed 4 nights and enjoyed every minute.

We will be back!!

The house and property exceeded our expectations! The house had plenty of amenities, we brought a lot of stuff given a prior rental, and we didn’t need half of it. The location of the house and the river couldn’t have asked for a better location. With 4 kids and w dogs there was so much space that a couple of the kids slept in different beds each night. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything you could need. The kayaks and canoe were a plus, along with the game room. The hat came in handy with are multiple rainy days, but we made the best of it! 6/6 of our family decided we will be back next year!

House was not what we expected

The cons: The house was dirty. The floors had dust and dead bugs all over. The showers were filthy, with mildew all over the walls and tub. We had to clean the bathroom when we arrived there. We even found a half eaten pop tart on the shelf in the bathroom. The toilet bowl cover was loose and almost coming off. You could tell the house had not been cleaned for a while. We paid a lot of money and expected the house to be at least somewhat clean. Even the rugs, tablecloth and furniture had dust and stains on them. The Pros: The house was in a beautiful location, with the river within feet of the house. The owner was communicative and answered all of our questions. They had a pool table, canoes and kayaks, which were great. If the house was clean, we would have given it 5 stars. Overall, we did not feel comfortable staying in the house because of how dirty it was and would not stay there in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Delaney

Canoe River is a family home. We grew up knowing, seeing, spending time with our extended family and we wanted to be sure that we offered the same experience for our children and grandchildren.
We love getting away to our private, peaceful home in such a pretty area of Virginia. Cousin time is the best time! Many fun memories have been made at Canoe River. Renting on VRBO allows us to ensure that we can keep this special place in the family.

Why they chose this property

We were very fortunate to find this unique property right in The Shenandoah River. This home had the room for multiple families to share time together comfortably and nothing beats the 'playground' right out the door. The home is close to the charming towns of Luray and Front Royal, Luray Caverns, hiking, wineries, Skyline Drive, State Parks....
