About this property

Secluded Cottage on 10 Acres. Close to Shen. Natl. Park and Luray Caverns

Old Mine Cottage is outfitted with quite a few amenities that will make your stay very enjoyable! A 5 person hot tub is always a hit with younger and older guests alike, and for a perfectly relaxing experience, the outdoor fire pit is a great place to unwind after a day of sightseeing, golfing, or however you choose to spend your time in Luray! The kitchen is beautifully designed and comes complete with every appliance needed, including a dishwasher. There is a washer and dryer on site as well for those who wish to use them. Every few hours the train comes through, and the property is just the right distance from the tracks for it to be charming. There is a brand new TV in the living room, with a DirecTV package, and a DVD player. The inside of the cottage has a very rustic feel to it. Everything is completely new, but was carefully crafted to feel very comfortable and unique. The property sits at a convenient location to get to, with only a 10 minute drive to nearly everything you could need to do.

Another amazing stay!
This property is well worth the stay. My family and I stayed twice in 2023. We will be straying at least two more times in 2024! It is well worth the money.

Great for the family
Went to stay for Thanksgiving with my wife and two kids (5&3). Large lot to play on, great fire pit with supplied wood, very clean hot tub for the adults. 10 minutes from the Caverns and downtown. Can't wait to go again.

Outstanding Stay in Shenandoah Valley
This is a property when you leave you wish it was yours! Exceeded our expectations and was everything we thought it would be and more. As others have noted, interior is much better in person than some of the photos may lead you to believe. As described, everything is new, clean, and very functional. Hats off to Gerald for restoring this older farm cottage to preserve historical character and also achieve modern function and comfort. It is not grand, but perfectly done in character and scale. Its quaint, comfortable, and cozy. Perfect size and vibe for our family of 5. Though we did watch TV for a bit, the property somehow pulled us (including our 3 kids) all towards more enriching ways to pass time - reading, napping, kids playing in yard, relaxing in jacuzzi...unrushed and left feeling renewed. The nearby railroad is the cherry on top....adds perfect touch of charm and sense of place. My only feedback would would be that the living room could be more comfortable and ample. Very nice and clean couch and chair, but not very comfortable nor ample enough for more than 3-4 people. Again, I was more drawn to read on the front porch or take a walk to the train than I was to watch TV, but comforting and inviting common areas are important in vacation homes. By no means a deal killer. We'll be back!

About the host

Hosted by Gerald Dovel

Host profile image
We have lived in Luray, VA our entire lives, and have always loved it here. 20 years ago after our home was paid for I bought our first monthly rental property on High Street in downtown Luray. It was a big investment, and lots of long nights after work were spent there to bring it into the condition I wanted, but it turned out great. A lot has changed since then, and 1 monthly rental property has turned into 32. Two years ago we decided to expand our horizons and move into more than just monthly rentals, which ultimately led to Old Mine Cottage. It took a two year process to get to today, but the result is a gorgeous property that is ready to be utilized. As we continue to grow in the business world we invite you to come and stay with us. Let us know how we did. We think you will be impressed.

What makes this property unique

This property offers a unique location in a quiet, rural area of our county. It is only two and one half miles from the main highway. Yet it is set on miles of paved country roads with very little traffic. Perfect location for biking enthusiasts.
