About this property

Country Estate on the Shenandoah River

Enjoy natural beauty at this historic retreat on the banks of the Shenandoah River. Built in 1739, Stonewall Crossing sits on 25 beautiful acres with nearly a quarter mile of riverfront views, a meadow, a quarry, and views of the Massanutten mountain ridge.

Stonewall Crossing is a unique, welcoming respite in the countryside that sits on the banks of this historic river. The original two-story log cabin has been beautifully renovated. The lower level serves as the Great Room, complete with a bluestone fireplace built from rock quarried on the property. In all, the house features four large bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom.

Stonewall Crossing features luxurious, modern amenities. A fully appointed, chef’s-quality kitchen with granite countertops opens to the dining room--perfect for cooking, entertaining, and gathering to enjoy special meals. Off the dining room and surrounding the house is a two-story deck overlooking the river and perfect for socializing, watching the sunset, stargazing, or relaxing with a good book.

An outdoor fireplace and patio provides an ideal spot to stargaze, roast marshmallows or listen to the songbirds while enjoying your morning coffee

Stonewall Crossing is located in the Shenandoah Valley nestled between the Shenandoah National Forest and the George Washington National Forest. Stonewall Crossing’s deck provides a stunning view of Strickler Knob, considered one of the top hikes in the Mid-Atlantic region.

Beautifully appointed and well-located home. It was extremely clean and had a well-stocked kitchen. Very convenient to Luray Caverns, grocery store and downtown. We were impressed with the multi-acre extent of the property which included river access as well as fruit orchards. Comfortable beds and upgraded en-suite bathrooms easily accommodated our group of 5 adults and a 4yr old. The "toy closet" with its all-ages range of toys proved to be a favorite for the kiddo. Owner was very responsive to all communications. Truly a lovely home in a beautiful location.

Exceptional and a must visit!

Absolutely! Here's your revised 5-star review tailored specifically for Vrbo, with the family names removed:--- 5/5We had an incredible stay at Stonewall Crossing! The property was the perfect setting for our annual sibling and cousin reunion. The house and grounds were peaceful, beautifully maintained, and incredibly welcoming—offering just the relaxing escape we needed.We especially loved having access to the kayaks and being so close to all the amazing hiking and sightseeing opportunities in the nearby national parks and along Skyline Drive. The location couldn’t have been better!Stonewall Crossing truly made our time together unforgettable. Highly recommended!

Family Fun

A great family reunion was made even better with this excellent country homestead. Place was awesome with great views and a very family first feel. Lots of places to kick back and relax individually or as a group. Love the home theatre set up for movie night when the rain came! Plenty of space on the lawn for yard games or football toss. The smokehouse chimney was a great place to finish out the day. We would come back here in a second!

Tropical Storm and no power

Unfortunately the tropical storm made our stay not as enjoyable as the storm knocked out the power at the house. Although the host did contact me to let me know power was out, she didn't mention that there would be no water as a result. We would've been fine if there was still plumbing in the house, especially with little kids, but unfortunately we had to cut our trip short as we couldn't keep driving to the store to use the bathroom or buy water to flush the toilet. Host should invest in a generator to at least keep the electric pump for the water going.

Nice, but could have been better

What was good All the appliances worked, power was on, and no bed bugs. The kitchen was well stocked with spices, utensils, small appliances, etc. The home is decorated well and you can tell they invested in their bathrooms. The fireplace for smore's in the yard was nice and the grass was low so we were able to play in the yard. No mosquitos outside, which was a surprise. There are tons of light switches everywhere, you can spend lots of time trying to find the one you need! There was complimentary tea, but the good flavors were all gone. I left an item and Sara was nice enough to mail it back to me at no extra charge, which was beyond kind. What was okay The house is dark at night if you turn all the lights off. We brought extra night lights and left a couple on in case we needed to go downstairs. The hot water worked fine, but wreaked of Sulphur and was cloudy. There were not many games at all. Pictionary was warped probably from getting wet. There were cards, and Uno, but not much else to do. There is a closet of baby toys, but nothing for older kids, so come prepared. As my husband put it, "If your entertainment system requires 8 pages of laminated instructions, it's the wrong one!" We got it working, but the wi-fi was spotty. There was almost no view of the river as the brush has been allowed to grow up, so there was only one spot in the whole house that had any view, which was disappointing. There are a lot of antique chairs in the home. Some are rickety, but they do hold you. The ceilings upstairs have low door entry's and low beams. My husband is 6' 5" and hit his head on the rafters several times. We finally just decided to stay out of some of the rooms. There are also raised boards at the entry to rooms, making it easy to trip. So watch your head and your step. What was bad BUGS. Indoors, spiders under chairs (with spider eggs as a bonus), ants, and one's you will have to google to figure out. There are not just flying bugs from leaving a door open. The bathroom in the "kids room" is scary. The door locks from the outside and the window is broken, so if your little one pushes it up it will slam back down almost instantly. Really dangerous for little fingers. Also there is no hand shower and the tub is a soaking tub. You'll need to bring a hand held shower attachment or bring a glass up from downstairs if you want to wash your child's hair. The other tub across the hall does not have a hand shower either. DIRTY. There were three hairs

Stonewall Crossing - our 4th visit

What a great long weekend at Stonewall Crossing! My family absolutely loves this house. This was our 4th visit (I've already booked next year). The spacious house is perfect for our expanding family, including 7 adults and 3 grandchildren. We love the house, the grounds and the location. We got to enjoy 3 days of hiking and kayaking on the river, and then relaxed with a fire and s'mores. The owner/host is amazing! Very quick to respond with questions and even let us stay past check out this year. We had car trouble on the last day and needed to wait until the repairs were done. Can't wait until next year.

Guys Getaway

This property was located close to The Shenandoah National Park. We were able to hike during the day & relax in luxury. This property was absolutely beautiful & the house provided us with plenty of room. We enjoyed movies on a large movie screen each night. The kitchen was well equipped for preparing meals. We kayaked on the South Fork of the Shenandoah River with kayaks & equipment provided by the property owner. What a great getaway!

We had a great time at this historic home. The ease of getting to the Shenandoah River and the Town of Luray was perfect for us. Our daughter got married at a vineyard near town and it was a quick bump up the road to get to it. We had extended family stay with us, as well, and everything was simply beautiful.

Family Farmhouse on the River

We had a wonderful stay in this historical farmhouse. The house is impeccable and offers such a warm and comfortable feeling. Plenty of space for all to spread out. We loved the movie room and the outdoor areas. One thing to note is that one of the king suites and laundry is separate from the other bedrooms. It was nice being close to everything but so peaceful and quiet here. Thank you, Sara. We hope to return.

Wonderful 70th Birthday Weekend!

We had a beautiful weekend at Stonewall Crossing! It was a perfect place to celebrate my 70th birthday. We especially loved the number of bathrooms in the home. The home was beautifully restored, and the historical information was interesting to read. It was a cozy place, and the beds were very comfortable. It was so hot outside that we didn't get to enjoy the grounds as much as we wanted. Everyone did have a chance to use the kayaks and get in the river, which was delightful. We did think the path that led from the lawn to the river was a little difficult to navigate. Maybe that area could be cut back and leveled a bit. We all loved the home theater! We were so comfortable on the leather couches, and we felt like we were at the movies! The only other concern was that the water smelled like rotten eggs. Maybe a well treatment would help that. Otherwise, the kitchen was fully stocked and comfortable to work in. Again, we all had a wonderful weekend at Stonewall Crossing. I truly enjoyed my special birthday weekend with my family at this beautiful home.

We had an absolutely wonderful time staying at this lovely home in the valley. The views were stunning and you can see the river from almost every room in the house. The kids loved exploring the yard and playing games and we had a fire in the outdoor fireplace every night. The inside was very cozy with everything we needed. We especially enjoyed the theater room and the gas fireplaces. This is a rental that has something to offer in every season and we look forward to coming back again!

About the host

Hosted by Sara Capella

Stonewall Crossing is the vacation home for three-generations of a family that has endeavored to preserve and enhance the natural beauty of this homestead. We live and work in the area, and we frequently ‘runaway’ to Stonewall Crossing. We hope that you enjoy it as much as we have and make fond memories with your friends and family.

Why they chose this property

Only 90 miles (a 2-hour drive) from the Washington DC area gives you enough proximity for a weekend escape, but sufficient distance to provide a respite from city life.

Luray has may activities for young and old alike. The Hawksbill Greenway is a great walking path. All our kids learned to ride bikes on it. Downtown you can find a used bookstore, historic movie theater, ice cream shop and brewery plus many art and gift shops.

What makes this property unique

We enjoy swimming and kayaking in the river, the proximity to excellent hiking trails, the beautiful mountain views and the peacefulness of country life. We also love to cook and entertain and the property is perfect for that.

It's an ideal house and grounds to reconnect with family and friends. With 25-acres, there is plenty of room to roam and play games with the kids or find a quiet spot to watch the day drift by.

Or, if you prefer an active vacation, jump in the river and kayak to see wildlife and wildflowers. Hiking is close by at the Shenandoah National Park or the George Washington National Forest. Go underground at the Luray Caverns to explore this unique cave system. For history lovers, stop by a Civil War Battlefield in New Market or Winchester.

All of this is to say that regardless of your vacation goals, you can meet them at Stonewall Crossing!
