About this property
The House in the Holla at the foot of Shenandoah National Park
Be in Shenandoah National Park in less then 15 minutes!
Our home is special to us and we hope it will be to you as well. We are located on Swift Run, which is a stocked trout stream- you will need a Virginia fishing license and trout stamp, stocking is usually Oct-Feb. Outside we have a patio to enjoy sitting and relaxing listening to the river and grilling out along with 2 wood fire pits. Inside you can hear the river from both bedrooms.
We have a fully stocked kitchen available for your use. One bedroom has a Queen sized bed, and the other has 2 twin beds. Although our home is small, it's very cozy and comfortable. Kitchen towels, dish washing detergent, trash bags, hand soap and a dishwasher are provided for your use. Bathroom towels and wash cloths are also provided with bedroom linens. We have 3 smart tvs and a DVD player along with high speed internet (100mbps) for your convenience. There are 2 outside fire pits, we try to keep wood there, but it's not always guaranteed.
We have a pack and play (and sheet) and high chair in the closet of the big bedroom. Other items may be available upon request.
We do welcome dogs for a $25 pet fee. No CATS.
We are 12 miles from the entrance to skyline drive and with in 30 miles to UVA. Conveniently located!
