I came here for a weekend getaway with my dog to do some hiking and relax. The property is convenient to so many things, hiking trails and water access were fantastic. My cabin was SPOTLESS, and well laid out. Everything worked as it should and so cozy. The porch was perfect for morning coffee and enjoying the sunset in the evening. The staff is so friendly and went overboard making sure I had everything, I felt like I was staying with friends rather than renting a place. The scenery and surroundings make you not want to leave, plenty to do and see on this beautiful property. I would 100% recommend and I will be returning.

We had a wonderful time at this absolutely beautiful property. Peaceful, unbelievable views , very friendly and accommodating people and overall just an absolutely wonderful experience. The walk down to the river is so fun, and the mountain sunsets and sunrises breathtaking.It's just a short scenic drive to town - the perfect hideaway in the beautiful mountains!Don't forget to buy some cuts of steak raised right on their farm to cook on the grills they provide! Or roast some s'mores over the fire pit. Highly recommend and will most definitely be back!

My husband and I stayed on the ranch for a long weekend. We wanted to get a wide range of activities completed (fishing, hiking, exploring the farm animals and surrounding town). We accomplished it all and more with a relaxing home base after a jam packed day!

Peaceful Retreat

The property is absolutely beautiful! We thoroughly enjoyed watching the horses, cattle, and deer in the multiple pastures. The view of the mountains was such a joy and the entire ranch is well maintained and peaceful. We had access to the river and enjoyed quiet walks. The staff were so kind and willing to share information on local attractions. Thanks so much!! to share information about local attractions.

Amazingly quiet and beautiful!

Waking up to a beautiful sunrise, having a long quiet time on the porch overlooking the rolling green hills...so refreshing! I loved watching the animals roam the fields, and seeing the horses gallop around was wonderful. The cabin was great, the bed had a good mattress, the furnishings were comfortable. I am going to recommend Rivers Bend Ranch to my friends!

ANNIVERSARY GETAWAY

We were looking for a quiet place to relax for our anniversary weekend and found it at River's Bend Ranch. Watching sunrises and sunsets. Horseback riding right there. Sitting on the porch watching the horses in the pasture and even the longhorn steer.

It’s a lovely cabin with a great porch, view of the pasture with the longhorn cattle.

Everything was nicely done and all worked well. Suggestions: To guest, bring eyeshades since the blinds are paper thin so the sun wakes you too early for vacation and you can see through them at night. To owner: There aren’t enough trash cans (only 2), no aluminum foil or plastic wrap in the kitchen, no salt and pepper, and no basic supplies in the kitchen.

Very Nice little kitchen, Table, Living Room, Bed Room and Nice Jacuzzi Tri-Tub, with good size Show

O MY GOD, River’s Bend Ranch is a beautiful ranch with Shenandoah Mountains, with large section of the Shenandoah River that we walked to the river no problem all to the East for Sunrises as well & Massanutten Mountain Range to the West for the Sunsets. Also Horse Back Riding Trail Rentals there at 11:00AM and 1:00PM. Close to the town Stanley. Also just a little further from the other towns like Shenandoah, Luray, New Market and Elkton a touch farther. Let’s not forget Shenandoah National Park & 15+Wienries (1 to 1 ½” Hours away) with so much beautiful scenery. Thank you River’s Bend Ranch for such a pleasant stay, Mike B.

Peaceful and Serene

My husband and I were tired after driving through DC rush hour, so we looked forward to settling into the cabin for the night. So when we drove to the parking area by our cabin, we were pleasantly surprised by four large longhorns greeting us on the other side of the wire fence. I dismissed my exhaustion as I took in the breathtaking landscape, which consisted of an expansive, rolling pasture that was a much-needed sight for city-dwellers like us. On our first evening, Caroline, the wonderful lady who was very helpful with our stay, suggested walking to the nearby barn, where a new baby lamb had just been born earlier that day. We were delighted to see the other ranch animals, including a sweet cat and two dogs. The following morning, we got up early enough to drink our hot coffee on the porch while watching the sun rise over the distant Shenandoah Mountains. Later that day, I made reservations for my husband and me to follow our guide, Ben, on an hour-long trail ride to the river, which was incredible. Ben's laid-back persona made the ride enjoyable, especially since my husband and I haven't ridden horses in years. The reason for our weekend getaway was to explore the nearby Luray Caverns, which we did later that afternoon. We didn't expect our relaxing accommodations at River Bend to be the reason for wanting to come back in the future.
