About this property

Cozy cabin w/hot tub & fire pit

Summary:

Escape to Hummingbird Ridge, a cozy mountain cabin where you can unwind, gather with loved ones, and soak in peaceful forest views year‑round.

- Sleeps 10 | 4 bedrooms | 7 beds | 1.5 baths

- Hot tub & outdoor fire pit w/ seating

- Large deck w/ string lights & BBQ grill

- Pellet stove fireplace & spacious living area

- Fully equipped kitchen, Smart TV & WiFi

- Dedicated workspace, play area & dog-friendly



The Space:

Snow‑kissed mornings drift in through tall windows, the scent of pine mingling with the faint aroma of fresh coffee. As the day fades, string lights flicker on the deck and the pellet stove crackles, inviting you to unwind in the gentle hush of the mountains. The hot tub steams under a canopy of stars, while the fire pit glows, perfect for sharing stories and toasted marshmallows. Here, time slows and the rhythm of the season becomes your backdrop.



Sleeping arrangements

Four bedrooms accommodate up to ten guests. One bedroom offers a double bed. Two bedrooms each feature twin‑over‑queen bunk beds, ideal for families or mixed‑age groups. The fourth bedroom contains two twin beds. All linens, extra pillows, and blankets are provided for cooler evenings.



Bathrooms

A newly renovated full bathroom serves the main living area, complemented by a half bath upstairs. Essentials are stocked for convenience.



Kitchen & dining

The fully equipped kitchen provides ample counter space and a nearby dining nook, making it easy to prepare and share meals after a day of exploring. A BBQ grill on the deck extends cooking options to the outdoors.



Living area & amenities

Step through the red front door into a spacious living area with high ceilings and expansive windows. A pellet stove fireplace adds warmth on winter nights, while electric heat and window A/C units keep the cabin comfortable year‑round. A Smart TV and Wi‑Fi support movie nights and video calls, though service may be slower due to the remote location. A dedicated workspace in a private room offers a quiet spot for focused tasks.



Outdoor living

The large deck, accented with string lighting, overlooks a grassy backyard that, while not fully fenced, includes a children’s play area and space for games when the weather permits. The hot tub remains a favorite in colder weather, and the fire pit with seating encourages evenings spent roasting s’mores and listening to the forest’s stillness.



Location

Nestled in Mount Jackson, the cabin is a short drive from the George Washington and Jefferson National Forests, offering scenic hikes and seasonal beauty. Bryce Resort lies about twenty minutes away, providing winter sports and summer recreation, along with dining and local shops.



Perfect for

Families, friends, and small groups seeking a pet‑friendly mountain retreat. Dogs are welcome; cats are not allowed due to allergies. Whether gathered around the pellet stove, soaking in the hot tub, or exploring the surrounding forest, you’ll find a comfortable base for a Shenandoah Valley escape.

You can not beat the tranquility of this secluded spot in the mountains. And the owner's communication was fast and efficient. The bed was super comfy and the view of the stars at night was sublime. I enjoyed my stay very much.

It Is What IT IS.

It was surprising what the cabin did and did not have. It was better than most as far as cookware, kitchen supplies, shower supplies and so forth. It was under supplied in tea towels (for a week of cooking), electrical outlets near mirrors (to style one's hair - no outlet in the bathroom) and no dresser, closet or even a luggage rack in the smallest bedroom. Linens were nice. We enjoyed use of the deck grill, fire pit and hot tub and grilled and cooked daily. It is pet friendly but no gates are on the porch. They say to bring your own baby gates (2) which we do not have. I would've rented 2 if they made that an option. We had a blast zip line riding and my 10 year old grandson could not stop taking pics at Luray Caverns. Fantastic place. My favorite pants badly snagged on a rough spot on the deck . Some safety issues exist. The steps up from the driveway to the deck steps are unsafe and steep. We are retired, not young, and my husband has 2 ribs still healing from a past injury. He had to drag two ice chests and one large suitcase up those unsteady steps to the deck steps. The lose stepping stones up to the hot tub are dangerous for children and adults. The deck around the hot tub is to narrow to safely uncover and cover the tub. Narrow deck exists at the tub entry. Two chairs were broken. The rocking chair inside; we reported quickly. It was not repaired during our stay. A lovely wooden deck chair was also falling apart. The shower curtain is hung to low and drags on the shower floor. Another fall risk . We will return to the area one autumn; when my youngest grandchild is big enough to zip line on Mamma Bear. They will want to see Luray Cavern again. We will look for a different cabin. A safer one.

Nice Chalet in convenient location

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It was bigger than expected and the rooms were nice. Communication with the owner was easy. The hot tub was an added bonus. AND, the firepit in back was nicely setup.

Perfect location for a perfect getaway

My family and I had such a lovely time! We had a lot of fun star-gazing and sitting around the bonfire while make s’mores! Tony is the best; super responsive and took time to check on us as well!

A very cozy cabin

Perfect if you have a group of friends that just need an escape. The cabin is great, the fire pit is very nice, and it’s secluded enough where you have a sense of privacy.

About the host

Host profile image
I live in DC with my wife and three young kids. I love camping/hiking, drinking (and sometimes brewing) great beer and wine, exploring new restaurants and shops, and traveling all over.

Why they chose this property

We spent years searching for the perfect getaway, and wanted to be close enough to DC that we could do a day trip. We fell in love with the area – and Hummingbird Ridge in particular. We love how cute and cozy our cabin is, and all the fun outdoor activities we can enjoy year-round. :)
