The best escape in the Shenandoah area

The house and property were amazing!! So much space and the pictures don’t even do this place justice. The lake and entertainment by the water was so great and the cabin is huge with all the perks! I highly recommend this place!

Amazing private retreat!!

We had such an amazing time at this beautiful property! The cabin is wonderful & filled with all things you could want (game room, kitchen items, luxurious bedding, grill)! And the lakeside pavilion is the absolute best! We spent our days there kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding! So relaxing & peaceful in the middle of nowhere. Perfect for our family!

Christmas at the Cabin

Don't keep looking..... Book your stay here! It's AMAZING! This cabin has stunning views and complete serenity. The Pavilion by the lake just can't be beat....an outdoor OASIS! The hosts are very accommodating, the Christmas decor was beautiful. The cabin itself is cozy and spacious and will have everything you need!

Wonderful week at the retreat! 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

It was just a wonderful place to unwind , relax, and enjoy the beautiful outdoors. Megan was very helpful in helping me with great suggestions for a vineyard, a restaurant and a fly fishing trip. We so enjoyed the retreat…. The property is gorgeous . As a family of 8 we enjoyed cooking, fishing, walks, and morning coffee on the back deck. We had a 13 month old and the pack and play and high chair were great! We have done many vrbo’s and this was the smoothest and nicest so far. We look forward to returning to enjoy another season in Virginia!

It looked great online, but it was even better than expected. Incredibly private and beautiful. The property was thoughtfully designed so that the lowest level flows down to the fire pit, which then flows down to the lake. We had 12 friends from two classes of our high school (ages 46-50 now). Lots of great spaces to hang out inside and out. The host, Megan, was responsive and everything was easy.

Gorgeous, secluded, and comfortable!

My siblings and I stayed for a week at this lovely house. We swam, kayaked, fished, and relaxed on the huge decks. On our walks we saw deer, turkey, egrets and more. The house sits on a small lake with clear, deep water, perfect for swimming. We cooked meals in the spacious kitchen and shopped in Waynesboro, which is only about 20 minutes away. Every night we watched incredible sunsets from the deck.If you are looking for a peaceful, relaxing spot, this is the place!

Beautiful and relaxing property

We rented this house for a girls weekend and it was perfect! The house was so big, there were spaces we never used (like the basement game area). We enjoyed the large kitchen, the outdoor decks, the pavilion, and the views! It was quiet and beautiful. The house was well stocked and Megan was very responsive and helpful. We are already trying to figure out when we can go back!

Great property to relax and unwind

This is the 3rd time I’ve stayed at the house but first time w my family. They all had a blast. Plenty of things to entertain teenagers. Highly recommend. Only minor issue with our trip was the hot tub was not working properly but the owner was quick to respond to my inquiry and getting it serviced

Fantastic Time on the Mountain!

This was a great place for an extended family get together. Some hiked, some fished. All had a blast! We hear and/or saw turkeys, owls and deer. And caught bass and bluegill in the pond! Only minor wrinkle was the stink bugs and lady bugs around the windows - not a surprise for a cabin in the woods in the spring. As long as you have one or two people in your group that are willing to scoop them up and send them outside, then not a big deal!

Great place to relax and to adventure!

Very clean, plenty of space, a great place to relax and have fun indoors or to adventure outdoors to hike, fish, or to sit by the outdoor fire pit and/or lake pavillion with fireplace, pool table, and kitchen!! You only live once: spend a little more to stay at an amazing place like this! We definitely made the right choice for our 4 adults and 7 children!! Thank you to Megan for being a great host! We hope to return once again!

Great stay close to wedding venue

We had a great stay with family and loved being close to our daughter’s wedding venue. Thankful the host was so accommodating with last minute changes due to hurricane in Florida (our home). Wish we had more time to enjoy all the amenities. Spacious home worked well for 5 adults and two teens. Other family came to visit and it was nice to have the base camp.
