About this property

Spacious Cabin on Cedar Creek - Make memories at Shenandoah's best hidden getaway!

Ideas for your Cabin Experience...

Enjoy a cup of coffee or tea before breakfast, taking in stunning views overlooking Cedar Creek from this two-level cabin, deep in the Virginia countryside.

Cool off in the creek at the local "Swimmin' hole", which ranges from 2 to 4 feet deep, or cast your line in the hopes of catching a brook trout, or other native fish. Bring your PFD, fishing rod, and water shoes. Kayaks are available to paddle about - or you can coordinate with your hosts for a 2+ hour kayaking trip on the creek. Extended trips may be dependent on rainfall. Additional charge will apply.

Relax in one of two hammocks in the front yard or lounge down by the Creek. Spend the cool mountain evenings roasting marshmallows by our natural rock fire pit - firewood is provided for guests. Watch fireflies dance among the trees, while you sip a glass of local wine from our two-tiered deck.

Virginia wildlife abounds - walk the trails along the creek, woodlands, and meadows of the Cabin's 30 acres. Sit quietly and you may just see a doe and her fawn, wild turkeys, or a fox or mink. Don't sit quietly and you might see a squirrel. ;) Enjoy wild edibles when in season: Wineberries, Hickory Nuts, Walnuts, and Pawpaws. Yum!

We also have chickens and goats on the property. We don't have a rooster, so you won't be woken by "cockel-doodle-do" in the morning. You can sleep in. We rotationally graze the goats, which means they occasionally may be near the cabin, but we can move them to their permanent home on the other end of the property on request.

Excellent location and cabin

We had a great time at this location. The cabin had everything we needed, including privacy. We took local walks around the area every evening, fished in the river and hiked in the area. The hosts were phenomenal and responded to any questions we had immediately. We hope to visit again!!

Amazing Experience!

Rich and Mary are top shelf hosts!! They literally thought of everything needed for a short cozy 25th anniversary stay. The cabin was immaculate, the chickens and goats were fun to interact with, and communications were quick and easy. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. We highly recommend and hope to be back! :)

Quiet getaway

We stayed two nights at this location. The house/cabin was beautiful and well maintained. Lots of light from all the windows and sky lights. Great fireplace took the chill off the entire place. Wish we could have taken advantage of surroundings but maybe next time! The owners could not have been nicer.

Amazing cabin in the woods!

There was nothing not to love about our stay. The cabin is immaculately clean and fully stocked with amenities,. The beds were so comfortable and the bedding and pillows were perfect. The cabin has a full sized kitchen and there are also many restaurants and shops to visit in Strasburg. The setting is beautiful and you can watch Cedar Creek from inside the house out of the large picture windows. If the weather is nice, you can put your feet or plastic lawn chairs in the creek. There is also a swimming hole and kayaks. There are acres of woods and fields if you like hiking. So many different natural plants and flowers to enjoy. We are hoping to go back later this summer for another stay, as we had a rainy weekend, but even just staying inside is completely relaxing. I was sad to leave and come home. I highly recommend this vacation retreat.

Cedar Creek Getaway

It was a great getaway for spring break and early birthday for my daughter. Cabin was well stocked and clean. Had a great time walking the trails and visiting the goats. The chickens were also fun to watch everyday. Will have to come back when the weather is warmer to use the kayaks.

Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2024

About the host

Hosted by Rich

My wife and I are semi-retired, and love country living. We raised 3 children (now adults) in Northern Virginia, and moved to the Shenandoah Valley once we were "empty nesters". We fell in love with the natural beauty that is here, including the animals that live in the forest, and the birds that come to visit. Ask me about all the animals we've seen. You may be surprised!

Why they chose this property

The Cabin on Cedar Creek has its own unique beauty - where you feel like you're in another world. It's secluded ... but it's also close to Shenandoah National Park, the Shenandoah River, and other attractions such as Shenandoah Caverns!

We also love the history of this land, which dates back to 1760 - prior to the founding of our country. When you're here, ask me about the settlers who once lived here.

What makes this property unique

You will love the tranquility of the cabin and its location next to Cedar Creek, where you can hear the water flowing and the birds singing among mature Shagbark Hickory, Oaks, and Sycamores trees.
