About this property

Spacious Cabin on Cedar Creek, Shenandoah's hidden getaway!

Spacious Cabin on Cedar Creek - Make memories at Shenandoah's best hidden getaway! Cabin is on 30 acres of creek front property. Enjoy the quiet tranquility of the forest, take out the kayaks, do a little fishing, or visit our egg laying chickens.

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. Two 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 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.

If you are looking for a relaxing getaway in a beautiful country setting, this is your place! We had a wonderful long weekend hiking, and visiting some of the local spots, but mostly just relaxing at the cabin. I really appreciated the comfortable beds and high-quality linens and towels. The soaking tub is fabulous! The deck overlooking the river was a favorite spot of ours. Highly recommend!

This place was everything we had hoped for and more. I was there for 3 nights with my kids (ages 6, 5, and 3) and we hardly left the property. They had so much fun playing in the creek and on the deck, but the highlights of the trip were the hammocks and roasting marshmallows. Rich and Mary thought of everything and truly provide a wonderful place for a family vacation.

Family Staycation

Wow! My husband and I wanted a few days away with our boys before Mother’s Day and Rich and Mary’s place was a dream! The love and attention to detail that they have put into their rental is incredible. Rich met us upon arrival and was extremely kind and welcoming. The space was cozy and inviting. Our family enjoyed fishing and unplugging for some quality time together. It was very clean and stocked with most things you could possibly need. We can’t wait to go back!

Perfect Getaway!

We wanted a place to stay that had all the amenities and was super comfortable, but that was also close to all the great hiking in the area. This place was perfect! We hiked every day, and came home to a cozy home after. When we weren't out and about, the creek was a nice place to relax and cool off! Rich and Mary were great, and very communicative, making for a great trip.

Great cabin getaway

Rich and Mary take excellent care of their cabin and are very welcoming and hospitable hosts. The cabin was meticulously clean, and everything from the beds to the living area was cozy and comfortable. We enjoyed drinking coffee on the patio while listening to the creek and wildlife, and cozying up to the wood stove at night. We visited the area to take advantage of hiking Shenandoah National Park and the cabin was a great spot to access not only the national park but also several other trailheads. Would definitely return again in summer to take advantage of swimming/kayaking in the creek!

Quiet, relaxing getaway in Shenandoah Valley

This cabin is a perfect way to enjoy nature and get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Rich and Mary were excellent hosts. The cabin is situated on a hill overlooking Cedar Creek and was super cozy and rustic but also luxurious. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there over Veteran's Day weekend. We enjoyed kayaking and walking the trails around the property. The only disappointment was that we could not have a fire because of the drought. We will definitely visit again during warmer whether so we can kayak some more and enjoy the swimming hole.

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.

Great little getaway spot

My family of 4 had a fun weekend getaway. From playing in the creek & fishing to hanging out on the hammocks, having a fire pit & making s’mores. The hosts went above and beyond to accommodate seeing their goats, they provided a hand written note with a s’mores kit, there was shampoo and soap provided along with a variety of kitchen necessities. We had a great time and would go back!

Outside, a beautiful view of the water from the deck, easy access to the creek and nature trails, and very secluded and peaceful surroundings.

The house was very clean and the property was very well maintained. You’re surrounded by nature with the trees, wildlife, and sounds of the creek.

About the host

Hosted by Rich

Host profile image
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.
