Great property close to Skyline Drive in VA

The property was very nice, spacious and clean. It was very close to all of the attractions that we wanted to see in the area. We really enjoyed the stay and we would stay here again.

This home is very conveniently located if you’re planning to visit Shenandoah NP. The cottage is beautifully decorated. It was clean, except for one upstairs bed that obviously needed clean sheets, and the upstairs shower had not been cleaned. The shower curtain needs to be cleaned or replaced. The cleaning issues I blame on the cleaning service. Otherwise, my only notes for improvement would be to replace or repair upstairs bathroom flooring that has cracked strips of flooring placed loosely in cracks joining laminate boards together. Most were covered by a bathroom rug and could be a tripping/fall hazard. Maybe choose a heavier, water hog rug to cover flooring issue to avoid replacing flooring. One lightbulb was shot in the upstairs bathroom. The back porch is nice, but it needs a higher-capacity bulb to provide adequate lighting as guests must enter home through the back porch/deck door. We had to use a flashlight in order to see our way well. The grass needs to be mowed, though it wasn’t too terribly high. Overall, it’s a good property for the area, considerately stocked and nicely decorated. If the shower and bedding cleanliness weren’t an issue upon arrival, I would have rated it five stars. There’re also restaurants within walking distance, which is a plus. I would prefer that the attic access in the upstairs bedroom closet have had a lock, simply for added safety. I liked that the upstairs has a fire-escape ladder for window use. Good plumbing.

Comfortable home!

Our group of seven are members of Coastal Canoeists, in Elkton to canoe/kayak the Shenandoah River plus a Fall club gathering. We enjoyed staying here. Comfortable beds. The owner has done a very good job in renovating this house. Close to Elkton Brewery & restaurants.

A really clean and tastefully decorated house. The hot tub was great. The backyard is just great with the deck and spot by the creek. Communication with Angela was easy and very responsive. I would recommend this place easily to my friends and family.

Great place for a long weekend hiking in Shenandoah. It’s very close to the park entrance. We had unfortunate weather one of the days, but still enjoyed our rainy day in-they have plenty of board games and things to do inside, and the hot tub was clean and perfect for evening relaxation. The town is cute and has a few places to go, notably the brewery and its pizza truck outside. We’d happily stay again!
