The Space:
Steam curls from the hot tub as the winter air settles over the quiet woods, and the sky unfurls in a blanket of stars. Inside, warm light spills across simple comforts while the sunroom frames snow‑dusted trees. The hush of the Shenandoah Valley invites you to slow down and settle in.
Sleeping arrangements
Two bedrooms sleep up to four guests. The first bedroom holds a queen bed, and the second features a set of bunk beds. Linens, extra pillows and blankets are provided for chilly nights. A spacious loft offers a cozy spot to read or gather, but it is intended for lounging rather than sleeping.
Living spaces
Radiant heating keeps the cottage comfortable throughout winter. A Smart TV and fast Wi‑Fi support quiet evenings or a bit of work at the dedicated workspace. The sunroom, with large windows looking out onto the woods, is perfect for sipping coffee while watching snowfall drift.
Kitchen & dining
A full kitchen lets you prepare hearty breakfasts and relaxed dinners at your own pace. The adjacent dining area keeps everyone connected around the table, making shared meals a natural part of the stay.
Outdoor living
The hot tub is available year‑round, offering a soothing soak against the crisp air. A private backyard includes a fire pit, BBQ grill, picnic table and a patio space for outdoor gatherings. Lake access is provided via a nearby path and dock. The yard is not fully fenced, so pets should be supervised.
Pet policy
The cottage is pet‑friendly for dogs; cats are not allowed due to allergies. No additional pet fee is listed, and pets share the same spaces as guests.
Additional notes
An indoor fireplace is present but decorative only and cannot be used. A very slight smoke smell remains from previous owners; most guests do not notice it, but those highly sensitive may prefer another setting. Our cleaning team sweeps the deck, stairs and walkways before each arrival, yet leaves from the natural setting—such as leaves or pollen—may still be visible, especially in certain seasons.
Location & surroundings
A short 15‑minute drive brings you to downtown Front Royal’s restaurants, shops and local favorites. Shenandoah National Park is also about 15 minutes away, offering winter hikes and scenic drives. Breweries and wineries are within easy reach for relaxed outings year‑round.
Perfect for
Families, couples or small groups of friends seeking a peaceful mountain retreat, especially those who enjoy quiet indoor comforts and outdoor winter experiences. Self check‑in, free on‑site parking and a private entrance make arrival and departure effortless.
