Quiet Woods Retreat

We had a great time at this location! We have stayed in the area before and enjoy the Luray, Virginia region. First time taking our kids with us and they had a good time. Definitely an “off-the-track” spot which is nice. We all enjoyed the hot tub.

Birthday Getaway

I booked the cabin for my husbands birthday weekend for just us. He was absolutely ecstatic and spent the entire weekend relaxed. The cabin is incredibly clean, spacious, and equipped, whether there’s two couples with some kids/no kids, or just a romantic getaway for two. Property is secluded and there’s plenty of space for outdoor activities if need be! At night we really enjoyed the hot tub and the view of the sky above!

Very Nice

The cabin is awesome. Very clean and cozy. The deck with the hot tub is where we spent most of our time when not exploring the area. Communication was great. We definitely recommend it and would stay there again. The only negative was the river access. We had access to an area across the road from the driveway to "enjoy the river, fish, and have a campfire". It would be a great place to do that but it is rented out to people to camp there. We went down to sit by the river only to discover that the entire riverfront area was taken up by a family who rented the space. The renters were understandably upset that completely strangers were invading their campsite. It made for an awkward situation.

Thanks staying with us, Ginny! We're glad you enjoyed the cabin. I'm sorry you had an issue with campers at the river. We co-own the river access with our family canoe business. It is a shared space for both the cabins and the campsites, not exclusive to campers. We encourage guests to contact us during their stay with any issues, the owners live just a few minutes away and are able to resolve most problems immediately. We hope you'll come back in the future, the campsites are usually much quieter during the week. All the best!

Great location, dog hair everywhere

I will start by saying that the location itself was very peaceful and relaxing and the hot tub was nice. However, the beds and pillows in both bedrooms were coated in black dog hair. This was the mattress and pillows themselves, before adding linens. This fact itself may not dissuade some folks from renting the place, but for myself, putting sheets and pillowcases over all the hair was very off-putting, and the fact that I have animal allergies really upset me as I develop severe eye and sinus symptoms. Was upsetting. I would suggest to the owner to do a thorough cleaning of the beds before guests come, and also to sweep up the dog hair. Not everyone is comfortable sleeping on a pillow with dog hair. As an aside, we had nothing we could use to remove the fur, and as it was on both beds, there was not much to be done. If you are looking for a secluded, quiet location and do not mind the dog hair on beds, floor, and furniture, you may enjoy this rental. (I knew ahead of time that pets were welcome. But I did expect that the home would be cleaned prior to our arrival.)

Hello, I'm sorry to hear there was an issue with the cleanliness of the cabin during your stay. While the cabin is dog friendly, we throughly clean and sanitize between each guest. I apologize that it was not properly cleaned prior to your arrival, that is definitely unacceptable! We always encourage guests to reach out during their stay with any issues, the owners live just a few minutes from the cabin and can resolve most problems immediately.

Wonderful seclusion

We stayed in Cast Away Cabin in the depth of winter, and it was wonderful. So quiet. No one around for miles, as far as we could see. The hosts were excellent and accommodating. The cabin was spotless, neat, well furnished, and above all cozy and comfortable when the weather dropped into the low digits. Only one drawback -- the internet service is so poor it is mainly unusable. Maybe the satellite service needs work or an upgrade. Be sure to bring your own condiments, oil, seasonings as the cabin is not outfitted for cooking except for dishes, pots and pans.

What a great cabin

We enjoyed are for days at the cabin immensely. We explored the area during the day and came every night to cook out on the grill and watch the stars from the hot tub. It's a truly peaceful area and the cabin was perfect for 2-4 people.

Secluded Serenity

The owners and Abi were super accommodating regarding check-in and departure. You will feel like you are in a treehouse while hanging out on the front deck soaking in the hot tub. There was a wonderful chorus of many species of birds to be enjoyed. The cabin is very secluded. We loved the riverfront picnic area. Such a peaceful way to spend Mother's Day. We will certainly return again! Thanks for a wonderful time.

Lovely cabin in Shenandoah

This space is perfect for 2 couples, plus there is space upstairs in the loft for kids or other to sleep on a futon if needed. Very clean, cute place. You can very clearly hear through the walls, so anyone speaking in any room can be heard anywhere in the house. We were fine with that for our short stay, but it's a good thing to know going in. The hot tub is lovely, and it is easy to drive to the National Park from here. I'd definitely recommend it.
