Tucked away in a secluded area, Cozy Bear Cabin provides a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Surrounded by lush greenery and the soothing sounds of nature, this cabin is your private sanctuary in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley.

We set up our property around gathering spaces to allow you to enjoy time with friends or find a place for some deserved seclusion. When you arrive in at the cabin, you'll immediately enter into the cozy living room with a 65" TV and gas fireplace, from there you will head on through to the kitchen set up with all the basics plus much more for baking, cooking, and entertaining. The dining area is the perfect spot to enjoy your culinary creations.



On this main level, you'll find the primary suite with a king-sized bed and an en-suite bathroom with a luxurious shower. Upstairs, you'll find our blue (primary), and red bedrooms, with the green bedroom downstairs; each set up with a king bed. There are three desk/chairs for when, despite your best wishes, the office calls.



All bedrooms include their own Roku TVs with the ability to log into your own apps Hulu+Live TV, Netflix, HBO Max, ESPN+, Disney+, and Prime Video. Worried about leaving your account logged in? We have the guest mode enabled through Roku, simply select your check out date when prompted and you will automatically be logged out of all applications.



Venture downstairs to the left you will find our game room to keep the kids entertained for hours, including a Air Hockey Table, Foosball Table and Poker Table, along with board games, playing cards, and poker chips. To the right, you will find our immersive Cozy Bear Cabin Movie Theater equipped with an 85" Roku TV and Surround Sound. During the colder months, this space has the option to use the propane fireplace, perfect for enjoying a happy-hour glass of wine or catching up with friends.



As you enter the Kitchen off to the left you will find an outdoor dinning area with seating for eight and a propane grill, for the summer and fall cookouts. Entering through the Kitchen to the back of the house, you'll find a path towards our hot tub and outdoor seating area.



Nearby you will find several wineries and options for hiking and river adventures. At the top of our list we recommend Fox Meadow Winery (reservations sometimes required and a 20-minute drive). You'll enjoy stunning views of the valley and great wine. Chester Gap Cellars also offers fantastic views of the Shenandoah Valley and highly rated options. We also recommend Aspen Dale Winery for a farm-based winery or Naked Mountain Winery for a more modern experience.



Dinner options abound on Main Street in Front Royal, a 15 minute drive away, where we recommend checking out Vibrissa Beer & Kitchen or Main Street Mill. Don't forget dessert at C&C Treats! If you need something a bit closer, Henry's Grocery offers grab and go options and is a great place to pickup essentials just 5 minutes away.



Finally, check out Front Royal Outdoors for river adventures, Skyline Caverns, or take a drive down Skyline Drive for spectacular views in Shenandoah National Park. You really can't go wrong!
