About this property

Chateau Solace: Luxury Glass Villa w/ Hot Tub, Sauna, Gym & 10 Acres

The Experience Welcome to Chateau Solace, a striking architectural retreat nestled deep within the canopy of the Shenandoah Valley. Located just 90 minutes from Washington DC, this is not simply a vacation rental—it is a sanctuary designed to disconnect you from the noise of the city and reconnect you with nature.

THE EXPERIENCE Welcome to Chateau Solace, a striking architectural estate nestled deep within the canopy of the Shenandoah Valley. Located just 90 minutes from Washington DC, this 2,400 sq. ft. private villa offers a rare combination of high-design luxury and family-friendly comfort.

Sitting on 10 completely private acres bordering the George Washington National Forest, you will find zero neighbors in sight—only total silence, towering trees, and wandering wildlife. Whether you are planning a family reunion, a couples’ retreat, or a wellness getaway, Chateau Solace is your private fortress in the woods.

A PRIVATE WELLNESS RETREAT Unlike standard rentals, Chateau Solace features a complete private spa and fitness circuit, making it the ultimate destination for relaxation and recovery:

The Hot Tub: A spacious, professionally maintained spa under the stars.

The Sauna: A private Infrared Sauna with chromotherapy lighting for deep detox.

The Gym: A dedicated fitness studio in the converted garage featuring a treadmill, elliptical, Pilates machine, and free weights.

CHEF’S KITCHEN & GATHERING We designed this home for groups who love to cook and eat together. The heart of the villa is the open-concept kitchen featuring Double Wall Ovens (perfect for holiday meals), a massive butcher-block island, and a cooktop facing the living area so the chef is never left out of the conversation.

Gather at the dining table for 6 with forest views.

Dine al fresco on the expansive wrap-around deck with a BBQ grill.

Enjoy morning coffee at the breakfast bar.

THE ARCHITECTURE & LIVING ZONES The home’s unique "Silo" architecture creates a dramatic interior with soaring cathedral ceilings and floor-to-ceiling glass walls that bring the outdoors in.

Main Living Room: Features a stone wood-burning fireplace and panoramic nature views.

Lower Level Den (The Kids’ Zone): A separate cozy living space downstairs with soft rugs, toys, and a Smart TV—perfect for letting the kids watch a movie while adults relax upstairs.

Outdoor Living: Relax on the stone terrace featuring a luxury cabana daybed and chaise loungers.

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS Rest is a priority here. All bedrooms are designed for deep sleep with premium linens and blackout capabilities.

Primary Suite: A romantic sanctuary featuring cathedral ceilings, a King Bed, and a private indoor stone fireplace.

The Tower Room: A unique bedroom located inside the architectural silo with curved walls and forest views.

The Loft: An elevated sleeping space offering a cozy bird’s-eye view of the home.

LOCATION & ADVENTURE You feel a world away, yet you are conveniently close to the best of Virginia.

Hiking: Direct access to nature; steps from trails.

Water: Short drive to the Shenandoah River for kayaking, tubing, and fishing.

Sightseeing: Near Luray Caverns, Skyline Drive entrance, and award-winning local wineries.

Come for the architecture, stay for the peace. We look forward to hosting your group at Chateau Solace.

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful property. Communication with hosts was excellent; very responsive. Our pup enjoyed lots of off-leash walks since we had so much property to ourselves. We enjoyed the views of the foliage through the many, many windows. The house itself was very comfortable.

Chose this VRBO because it was pet friendly but also in the vicinity of the national park. We decided to elope in the park with our family and then used our Vrbo to have dinner with everyone to celebrate. Very nice property, the fenced in yard was perfect for our pup to be apart of the celebration!

The property and house are absolutely gorgeous! The rooms are open, beautifully decorated and filled with natural light. The view from every window is stunning and the house is well stocked and private. The house location is fantastic - 15 minutes from Shenandoah River National Park and 25 minutes to the Front Royal entrance of Shenandoah National Park. It exceeded our expectations and we will definitely return!

Fantastic mountain escape

We had a wonderful stay with 2 families (including 3 kids under 4 and under). The house is so beautiful & there is such great space for hanging out and relaxing. In particular, it was great to have the 2 bedrooms and open area on the first floor, 2nd floor with great space to hang out and socialize together, & 3rd floor with a stunning primary suite. It was just what we needed to spend quality time with friends and soak in the peaceful mountain air.

We eloped in Shenandoah National Park and used the house to host an intimate wedding celebration. The house is absolutely gorgeous and exceeded our expectations. The rooms are all beautifully decorated and the place is stocked. I highly recommend using this house as a “venue” for your small wedding / elopement. Hosts were also very communicative. I do want to note that check-out procedures, including timing, were not consistent. I recommend updating all procedures so that timing, etc. aligns to prevent future guests from having uncomfortable interactions with the cleaners. Otherwise, we had an absolutely amazing stay and hope to return one day!

5 Stars – Wonderful Stay!

We had a fantastic stay at this lovely home. From the moment we arrived, we could tell it was exceptionally clean and cozy, with so many thoughtful touches and surprises throughout the house. The kitchen was well-stocked, and there were plenty of amenities that made our stay feel extra special.We especially enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub after a day of exploring, and our dog loved having the fenced yard to run and play safely. It was the perfect spot for both relaxation and fun.Highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a comfortable, welcoming place to stay. We would absolutely come back again!

Beautiful home surrounded by nature

My family enjoyed this beautiful property with an abundance of windows showcasing the surrounding trees and nature. We loved venturing out to the nearby trails, state park, scenic Skyline Drive, and beautiful Christendom College. But we also spent a good portion of our time at the house. The rain did not stop us from making the most of the well-supplied kitchen and the comfort of the living areas where we played games and enjoyed family time.

Better than advertised! First of all, the house is immaculate. A review I read before our stay said it was the cleanest rental they ever encountered. I thought it was a weird thing to say and probably an exaggeration, but oh my goodness! I challenge anyone to find a crumb or speck of dust in this place. AND they rent to dogs! If I lived in the area I would seriously hire their cleaning service.The property is super secluded. The location and fenced yard made it ideal for our dog. We could relax and eat on the deck or in the gazebo knowing he couldn’t stray too far. The hot tub and sauna were wonderful, but the real surprise was the shower in the master bath. I need one!The owners were both accommodating and easy to communicate with. We will definitely be back.

Perfect Girl's Weekend

Fifteen years since we had all been under one roof and our location could not have been more perfect. The main floor's open plan allowed for lounging during rainstorms, dinner on the porch on a warm spring night and plenty of room to cook and enjoy each other's company. Sleeping arrangements were comfortable and fit early and late risers alike. We took advantage of the local wineries, a few easy hikes, the infrared sauna and the hot tub. Lyndsey and Amanda were very responsive to our questions and inquiries. Thank you for a wonderful time and sharing your home to reconnect.

Peaceful Bliss!

We had such a wonderful stay. The most comfortable beds ever and the place was perfect for our small group. (would accommodate many more). Our dogs loved playing in the fully fenced yards (yes there are 2) and exploring along the grounds. We came at the perfect time to see all the leaves changing colors. We didn't go out much but it was nice having the piece of mind that if we needed anything stores were not far away.

About the host

Hosted by Amanda & Lyndsey

Host profile image
We are so happy to share the beauty and serenity of the Blue Ridge Mountains with you. Sisters Amanda and Lyndsey both grew up in this area and wanted to create a getaway for our family to connect in… and share it with you when we are in work mode ourselves. As a family, we often use it for yoga retreats, mountain biking getaways, and gathering extended family. We welcome your special memories, however you love to spend your time – with your favorite people or alone to enjoy the 10 acres of complete solitude. Completely surrounded by the George Washington Forest, Chateau Solace welcomes you and even your furry family. 🐾

Why they chose this property

A lot of love and updates have gone into this property and we hope you enjoy the choices we made to bring this dream to life. The location is approximately 25 minutes from town (Front Royal and nearby interstate 66), the property is at the back of our 10 acre plot of land, set off a gravel road, with no sounds of traffic or other humans! An easy 90 minute commute from Northern VA / DC and very close to beautiful vineyards, festivals and everything the Shenandoah Valley has to offer.

Great for anyone who loves to cook, write, read, relax…. Completely updated with mid century modern decor influences, the space is stocked with cozy blankets and thoughtful, well-appointed touches. Only 5 minutes to public boat landing on the Shenandoah River where you can kayak, canoe, SUP or tube float right down to Shenandoah River State Park! Treat yourself to the stargazing from every oversized window, scenic viewing level in this property. There are 65” or 55” TVs on each level.

Step outdoors in the landscaped patio and enjoy bird songs and zero automobile noise. Take in the tree top canopy from the brand new hot tub. Take advantage of the nearby wineries or caverns. Or explore the numerous hiking trails or even bike or hike the property itself. There’s flat and sloped topography for yard games or simply gathering in the beauty that is the Blue Ridge Mountains.

What makes this property unique

The hot tub is brand new and regularly maintained.

We’ve upgraded the remote internet to Starlink for working remotely or streaming the best app TV has to offer (also some blue ray /DvDs available mostly for kids).

The nighttime stargazing cannot be matched with the position the house on the top of the ridge and the pano views from the top floor loft bedroom.

Beautiful shaded outdoor dining and lounge areas. Screened in areas for “buggy” months are also available.

You can lounge in complete solitude (no neighbors for miles) or walk straight off the property to link up to trails adjacent to the property.

The home is smart enabled and all electronics are loaded with latest apps.

Indoor fireplaces are on propane and available for use in the winter months.

Extra blankets are available in all bedrooms
Hairdryers are in each of the full bathrooms
Toys, telescopes and binoculars are available, as well as games and a fitness area in the left side garage.

A Bluetooth Harmon Kardon speaker is also available in the home

The birds or sun shine and sing brightly on this property. The downstairs bedrooms have something to offer for those who prefer not to rise with nature.

Last but not least, this property has hosted so many wonderful people. Yoga retreats, surprise engagements, writers finishing their best work to date. A lot of wonderful people and love have been attracted to this space and we are grateful to the goodness that keeps filling these walls.
