We appreciated the timely and responsive communication. The cabin had all amenities mentioned plus more. The view from the back porch overlooking the river was fabulous and it was nice to still be able to be outside during the rain. Would highly recommend.

Absolutely beautiful spot, perfect place for a Zen retreat with me and my dog. My senior dog had the time of her life in the river! I was mildly saddened by the construction noises going on on either side of the home which slightly interfered with my Zen but since that’s the only complaint I had, it’s literally a non issue. The mornings were glorious and the access to so many cool adventures, like Laray caverns and Shenandoah national Park was quite convenient. We didn’t wanna go. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful spot with us.

I can’t control construction at another site unfortunately but that shouldn’t have allowed us as guests to get a five star rating!!!!

This adorable cottage is well appointed and super clean. Although it rained for two days during our stay, the screened in porch ensured we didn't miss one relaxing minute of our beautiful view of the river. Perfect place to unwind and unplug (no internet). We'd definitely rent this cabin again.

This place is awesome and Keith and Stephanie are excellent communicators. Looking forward to staying here again. The house has everything you need, for a wonderful river weekend. My son wasn't too happy about no wifi, but I liked it better without

This is a great little cottage. River access is super easy because the shore is well cleared. The house was well stocked with everything we needed. We brought our own but were pleasantly surprised when it even had coffee and filters! The screened in porch is super nice to keep the bugs away, and enjoy the evening. Everything was super clean. My wife especially loved that it had satellite tv. Will definitely keep this cottage in our arsenal! Loved it!
