Relaxing getaway in great location.

My husband, dog, and I enjoyed the access to nature. We hiked in the national park every morning and explored the towns nearby in the afternoons. Don’t miss Luray Caverns! We will definitely return!

Great Place!

We completely enjoyed our stay, the cabin, the river, the neighborhood. Gratitude to the owner for very helpful, quick, and invaluable communcations. Especially when we ran into trouble on the river and he reached out to the Shenandoah Vol Fire Dept to help us retrieve our boat!! Great community all the way around!!

Relaxing Week

Overall this place was perfect for myself, my husband and our 2 dogs. The location sits perfectly infront of the river where you can watch wildlife while having a morning coffee. Its secluded while also having neighbors, very quite neighborhood with nice friendly people. The house over all was beautiful and SUPER clean when arriving. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone.

Great spot for smallmouth action!

We stayed the long weekend for smallmouth fishing and we were not disappointed! We brought our kayaks and put in at the Shenandoah dam and floated down to the house. It can be a long float (8-9hrs) but the fishing was great! Take a no. 5 original rapala with you…We will be back!

Peaceful Getaway

Great spot to disconnect and sit with nature. This home was the perfect size for our family. Everything you need is here. Getting away from the hustle and bustle and sitting by the river was just what we needed. We brought tubes and floated down the river twice from the public boat landing about a mile up the road and did some fishing. Will definitely be back to stay at Rock n Reel!
