He closed the door to hide from you
This quiet and tranquil respite is surrounded by the beauty and sounds of wildlife.
The home has a fully equipped kitchen with a dishwasher, gas stove, toaster, coffee maker, and many other items to make your stay effortless. The original GE fridge adds to the vintage vibe and is our favorite piece.
Bedding, towels and extra blankets for chilly nights by the fire or on the deck star gazing are provided
Downstairs there is a bedroom with queen bed and bath room tub/shower combo
Outdoors you will find a gas grill, solo stove and a fire pit for roasting marshmallows with friends.
Whether you're relaxing in the hammock or taking a stroll through the woods to see the cows on the neighboring property we are sure you will enjoy our stay.
While Shenandoah Sanctuary is a wonderful place to disconnect with life and reconnect with each other we understand that sometimes people do need access to high speed internet. For this reason we have added Starlink to the cabin. Due to the high cost of Starlink it is available for an additional $10 a day.
Our system cannot the wi-fi fee. Please message us before checking in if this is something you’ll want to have access to.

Overall very good value. Cabin was clean and as advertised. Great location reltive to Shenandoah. Response time from owner/manager was hit and miss. Both propane tanks were empty, which was disappointing when I was trying to cook dinner.

Great place to unplug and unwind.

We spent a wonderful relaxing week at the Shenandoah Sanctuary. The property was clean and well stocked with everything you need. It’s central location made exploring the Shenandoah Park and other attractions very manageable.

We had an amazing stay at the Shenandoah Sanctuary. Check-in and check-out were very easy, and the host was very helpful in working though a bit of confusion we had around the wi-fi on our first day. The cabin itself is well equipped and comfortable, and the location is peaceful with only one very quiet neighbor in sight. The outdoor spaces are also very enjoyable, and the location is perfect being a short drive from all the needed amenities and also from the park entry gate. Best of all, we were able to bring our dogs, and they felt immediately at home there. Definately a 5 star stay.

Great weekend getaway

Beautiful location, quiet and peaceful. Nearby Stanardsville is a quaint small town. The cabin was perfect for our family rendezvous. Will probably book again in the future sometime.

Peaceful, quiet location but slightly desolate; felt like we were in the woods. Host was gracious and communicated well. Place was clean and well stocked. The only con was that the internet was very patchy, but then the entire Shenandoah didn’t really have internet access, so may be common for that area.

Cute Cabin in Beautiful Remote Location

This cabin is a wooden retreat near many things to do in nature and nearby Charlottesville. We hiked in the Shenandoah National Park, played board games in quiet of our cabin, cooked pancakes and enjoyed shopping nearby. Wish we could've stayed longer.

Beautiful property near hiking

Enjoyed everything about this place! Spectacularly clean. Comfy beds. Great gathering spaces indoors and out. Close to everything in the region. Fabulous evenings at the fire pit after grilled dinners in the deck. Completely hassle free entry. Everything works. Exactly as pictured/described !!

Away from it All!

We enjoyed our time at the Shenandoah Sanctuary. We wanted to be away from the hustle and bustle and this was the perfect place. Great place to relax, read a book, sit around the fire, enjoy stargazing and spend time with family and friends. A short 30 minute trip to Shenandoah NP and 45 min to Charlottesville. Would definitely recommend staying here!

Serenity indeed

We very much enjoyed staying here for our Shenandoah adventure. The house is in an inviting wooded area, pretty secluded, but within half an hour we were in the park. We were able to watch the sunset at Point Overlook, then come back and roast marshmallows, watch fireflies (nonexistent where we live), and see the stars. The kitchen was extremely well equipped, which we appreciate, as we enjoy being able to cook a bit and prepare lunches. Highly recommend!

The photos of this property did not do it justice! It’s absolutely a stunning, picturesque location and the perfect place to unwind and get away from it all. My family from the UK had the best time hanging out at the cabin. We were close to fishing, hiking and skyline drive so managed to get lots done in a short amount of time. Walmart was only 20mins-ish away so we could stock up on supplies if needed. The hosts thought of absolutely everything you could need and more. I was really impressed with the cabin as a whole. We made s’mores, stargazed and enjoyed the quiet location.

Perfect for our needs!

Communications were great, and they made sure we knew what we needed for the stay. The place was clean and had plenty of linens and towels for our use. I do think that if you have a small car you will have trouble getting in to the site, especially if there's bad weather. I needed to put my truck into 4-Wheel drive a couple of times.
