It was a great stay. I would definitely recommend. It’s very close to Luray Caverns and the property is more secluded than a lot of other places I have stayed in The Valley.
We enjoyed our stay at the cabin, the hot tub and firepit were great. It was a short drive away from downtown Luray which had good restaurants and a distillery/brewery with lots of room to walk around. The hosts were responsive and accommodating.
Overall, my boyfriend and I enjoyed our stay at the cabin. The cabin was clean and the hot tub was nice. The only thing, is that the driveway is steep getting to the cabin. I definitely would stay here again.
My significant other and I had a perfect experience at Madeline’s cabin. Everything was in great condition and clean. I would highly recommend everyone to experience this cabin.
This cabin was the perfect spot nestled in the Shenandoah Mountains but not too far from DC. The extra amenities such as the fire pit, hottub, and smart TVs were an amazing touch. We had a very relaxing time. We will be booking this space again!

Tiny cabin
Nicely furnished and clean. Only negatives were lack of a mountainous view and proximity to a frequently used neighborhood road (not as secluded as we assumed).
Overall a great experience, the house was clean and simple. Owners were fast at responding, we had an issue when we first got there and it was immediately fixed, wifi is great during the day but gets really slow from 5:30 to around 9:30 but coming from a person who lives in the middle of nowhere it’s not going to get any better than that. So all in all it was a 10/10 experience and I would definitely go again

The fridge was not cold enough to keep our food refrigerated. We also found there were alot of spider webs outside and inside . There was old chicken uncovered in the freezer. The hot tub had jets that were broken. Just expected to to be cleaner and more well kept

The grass had not been mowed, the hot tub was dirty, and the drive way needs to be black topped. The house itself was fine but the exterior is weak.
If you are looking for a peaceful, secluded, modern property for a get away to a gorgeous area, this is the place!
Anything you could possibly need is provided; the hosts have clearly & genuinely thought through any need you may have. The location is lovely- sitting at the firepit, we saw shooting stars and heard owls in the woods.. as well as saw the sun rise through the beautiful forest while sitting on rockers on the beautiful porch.
Checking in and out was simplified by digital conveniences - we were really impressed. Also, the internet provided helps a lot because of lack of cell service. We were very thankful for that.
The hosts were incredibly helpful and thorough. I feel they go above and beyond to genuinely care about the experience you have, as well as the level of satisfaction you have before, during, and after your stay.
I highly recommend this property in every aspect, from start to finish. Thank you!!
This cabin was super clean and adorable! Fire pit and hot tub were extra bonuses that we truly enjoyed. Communication with owners went super smooth. Great for a nice relaxing get away!!

About the host
Hosted by Fritz Ritter
Fritz & Olivia have been travel enthusiasts ever since they met. We love traveling to new places and seeing the world for what it is. We have found that the mountains just bring a certain type of perspective to our lives that no other place can. That's when we fell in love with this cabin, we knew this would be the perfect place to host and help others experience the serenity of the mountains.
One of our favorite quotes about traveling “We travel because we need to, because distance and difference are the secret tonic to creativity. When we get home, home is still the same, but something in our minds has changed, and that changes everything.”
Our hope is to provide you with the space to really unwind and come back home refreshed.
Why they chose this property
We absolutely love this property because of its location and its unique size. We are completely secluded and get to enjoy everything the mountains have to offer. We have a beautiful hot tub space that will set the vibe for your mental reset. This added with the fire pit right makes this the perfect weekend getaway. The home features an open living room with a pull-out couch 2 smart TVs and a washer and dryer. So you will have everything you need to enjoy and explore this beautiful area.
