Awesome Stay

House is very clean with amazing views! Kitchen stocked with everything you need. Water access is private with only a couple of shared cabins. Enjoyed fishing, canoeing and relaxing over three days. This was our second stay here and we look forward to coming back!Dan

What a treasure Sundance is...we booked a last-minute 3-night stay and just loved this location--it was such a treat! The cabin is lovely, well-furnished, comfortable and very clean. The scenery/views are outstanding. Even though the weather wasn't good while we were there, it was so peaceful and relaxing and the mountains were still pretty, even with the mist and the fog. I cannot imagine how beautiful it would be with clear skies! We are looking forward to going back to experience a sunset and a star-studded night sky!! We only cooked a few simple meals in the cabin, but I must say it was the first and the only VRBO cabin we have booked that had decent pots and pans to use that did not stick--so thank you, Derek and Olga!!

Perfect!

"Sundance" was perfect for our long weekend with the dogs. The space was super clean and the view was fabulous! It was nice to walk down to the river and chill in hot tub to take in the mountain views and the sunset. The power went out for a little bit on one of the days were there, and the owners were very responsive. We can't wait to visit again!

This was a wonderful setting for celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary! We especially enjoyed hiking nearby in Shenandoah National Park. The booklets about hikes in the park were very helpful. We had everything we needed in the cabin and enjoyed having dinner on the deck and by the river.

Sundance is a beautiful place to stay and enjoy the surrounding area. We kayaked on the River. The River area was so fabulous. The views ,cooking out on the patio hanging in the hot tub and fires at night made for such a wonderful experience. Thanks for sharing!

Simple and confomtable

I recently stayed at this cabin for a weekend getaway, and it was nice—simple, cozy, and comfortable. The space was small but thoughtfully designed, with just the essentials you need for a relaxing stay. The cabin had a rustic charm and large windows that let in plenty of natural light, making it feel both airy and warm.One of the highlights was the outdoor space. The peaceful surroundings made for a perfect spot to enjoy morning coffee or relax in the evening. The location was quiet and serene, ideal for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle.Overall, this cabin might not have all the bells and whistles of a luxury retreat, but its simplicity and comfort make it an excellent choice for anyone seeking a peaceful, low-key retreat in nature.

Excellent small cabin with fantastic views

This fairly new cabin maximizes its spectacular views with large doors and windows facing out toward the mountains and river. The deck has both covered and uncovered portions, perfect for handling a variety of weather. The walk to the river is a bit of a hike (emphasizing just how much property is devoted to this cabin and a sister cabin by the same hosts), and do bring shoes/boots that can handle some soggy ground to get to it. The bed is comfortable and the kitchen has the gear you need to cook. Note that you'll need to bring linens and all condiments. Being on the newer side (2011?), it is all electric: the HVAC is a heat pump, and the fireplace is a tasteful electric model. With forced air for both heat and AC plus well-insulated doors and windows, the entire unit can be made comfortable, a contrast with cabins with powerful propane fireplaces that can roast the main room and leave bedroom(s) frigid. The wifi is the standard slow-ish DSL available in the area. AT&T phones work okay in the cabin, even getting 5G towards the bedroom. I will happily stay here again soon (already booked).

This was a perfect place to getaway for my husband, mutt Rocky and me. Isolated enough so the only sounds we heard were from nature, but an easy trip to pick up any supplies you might need. I loved that the huge deck facing the mountains was deep enough that when there was rain we were able to sit outside without getting wet and enjoy the storm. I also had the lovely experience of hummingbirds visiting me while sitting out on the deck enjoying morning coffee. Read the guest book when you arrive. A fun game of “find the dollar” has been played by former guests for years. I will definitely be looking for another chance to stay at Sundance. Maybe then I’ll find the dollar!

This was the second time we stayed and we love the cabin, the property, and the views. We will be back again in the future!My only small suggestion is having things like foil, paper plates, and ziplock bags available. We had to throw away leftovers on the first night until we went to Walmart the next day.

Beautiful place

Enjoyed modern comforts in a natural setting. Kitchen well equipped for meal prep. Indoors: Comfy living space, big shower, soft bed. Two huge ceiling fans and screen doors, so we mostly kept a/c off. Outdoors: huge tree top deck with Weber grill, bistro tables, and hot tub. Panoramic view of Massanutten mtn and sunset. Well kept landscaping, firepit, and river access. An easy 10 minute walk down the path, we found the sunny lawn and shaded picnic area right on the riverbank. Short drive to Luray for provisions and attractions, and convenient to Thornton Gap park entrance. Sundance cabin is worth the price and only a modest fee for our dog to live her best life. 10/10 would recommend.

Had a great time spending 5 days-4 nights at Sundance celebrating our 40th anniversary. The cabin was very comfortable and had everything you could need. We ate every meal on the deck because the view is fantastic and it's so calm and peaceful. Relaxed in the hot tub every evening after a day of walking down to the river or exploring the area. Bonus points for the chocolate chip cookies. Hope to stay here again in the future.

My children and I did an overnight since there’s a lot to do in the area. The property is beautiful, and super private, without being completely in the middle of nowhere.

Fantastic spot

The pictures and description honestly don’t do this property justice! Absolutely fantastic location with wonderful vistas of the Blue Ridge Mountains. There was a pristine hot tub on the wrap around deck overlooking the mountains. The house was exactly as described and the owner responded promptly to all my messages and questions. I wish we had more time at this cabin and will definitely book it again next time we are in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

About the host

Hosted by Derek Goebel

Host profile image
Woodside Cabins is family owned and operated. Olga and I have been in the vacation cabin business for 20 years and take great pride in our properties. I grew up in the area and we both have a deep love and appreciation for the Blue Ridge Mountains and our beautiful Shenandoah Valley.

Why they chose this property

Designed and built in 2011 by Woodside Cabins, Sundance has been customized to benefit from its location by incorporating as much of the view into its setting as possible. With the outdoors in mind it has as much living space inside as outside. When you visit you will agree with Thoreau when he wrote,
“It is the marriage of the soul with Nature that makes the intellect fruitful, and gives birth to imagination.”.

What makes this property unique

The view from Sundance cannot be beat. Whether you are soaking in the hot tub, making a meal in the kitchen or waking up in the bedroom, the view is always there for you. In addition, the walk to the river takes you along a path through the fields where the mountains and the natural world surround you. You have to walk slowly to take it all in.
