The cabin was clean, cozy, and comfortable. A gurgling stream provided a soothing song of nature as we relaxed on the porch. This cabin is tucked into the woods for complete privacy.

We stayed here for our honeymoon, and while it turned out to be slightly more rustic than we realized, we had a very special time!

Great Cabin

My wife and I stayed a couple of nights at the Log Cabin at the River and it was magical.The location is very private and Serene. We spent most of our time out on the covered porch. It rained one evening and it was very relaxing listening and watching the rain. Really enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful Peacefulness

We stayed here a couple of years ago and were grateful to return again. Being right next to the stream and hearing it throughout the day and night was amazing. The kitchen was great to cook in and the bedroom with the view of the woods, and special reading nook, was comfortable and relaxing. What an amazing place to spend our 33rd anniversary.

Cozing log cabin on the river.

Log cabin on the river is the place for you if you want to get away from the city. Easy check- in, close to Shenandoah National Park and easy access to the cabin. The cabin its self is right on a small stream with amazing views. Would highly recommend to friends and family..

This cabin is fabulous - excellent location, well-equipped and nicely decorated. The stream is soothing. We saw a deer and a gazillion fireflies. If there’s a vacancy, book it quickly. You won’t be disappointed.
