Loved everything about it. The train and hottub were a beautiful bonus to an already cozy place. Autism friendly atmosphere! Very calming. The location is perfect if you are looking for the peace and serenity of Virginia country living. Highly recommend!
A beautiful secluded house that has a magnificent view of mountains in the distance from the porch. The jacuzzi was sooo relaxing after a day of sightseeing. Perfect location to all sights. I would recommend to family and friends!
Property is awesome, everything was clean and comfortable. Lots of cooking pots, pans, baking sheets. Bring your own kitchen knife, spices and cutting board. We would definitely stay there again. It was wonderful to wake up and have coffee listening to the bird chorus from the front porch.
We stayed at Secluded Cottage 3 nights over July 4th along with our golden doodle. This cottage is adorable. Someone worked very hard and meticulously on this cottage. Very quiet and relaxing. Watched Luray's fireworks from the hot tub. Shout out to Bear Mountain Zip Line...fun!! Not far from Caverns and Skyline Drive. Definitely would stay again.
This place never disappoints! It’s always clean and ready when we arrive. It has land for us and the dogs to roam, yet minutes from grocery stores and quaint downtown shops/dining. We love the hot tub and fire pit. This was probably the 4th time we’ve stayed here; never had a complaint!
It was a great stay, lovely property with gorgeous views of the surrounding fields, amazing sunset views from the front porch, and not a neighbor in sight. The hot tub and fire ring were welcome features to end our days with. Proximity to main roads, Luray Caverns, and Shenandoah was a huge plus. Rating 5 stars because everything was exactly as advertised and the property was very clean with updated fixtures. We could have done with a more comfy couch and maybe a smart tv, but understand rural internet can be challenging. Thanks for the great stay!
Its very private with lots of lawn to do whatever, The fire pit was nice, The hot tub is Awesome with the view of the mountain, The interior is very clean and welcoming, The furniture isn't very comfortable but i kinda like that, It fit the old style feel, Id definitely stay again. My Dog enjoyed sniffing all the new sniffies on the property.
The location was great. Easy access to Shenandoah Park and to Luray. The cottage was very clean. Wonderful to sit on the front porch and watch sun set. The host was on top of anything that was need. Would definitely stay again.
Very cute property and home. Our stay was comfortable and hosts were responsive. There are train tracks nearby, but we didn't get woken up in the night by passing trains. Bathroom was very clean and there were plenty of towels for bath/shower/hot tub.

Great place if you have dogs… plenty of room to run.
We hiked and attended the fall festival in Luray
The home was so inviting and we hot tubbed every night. Very comfortable and had all the comforts of home.
I’d recommend this place for a small family too
We never used the upstairs 😏
This property was everything that they stated it was on the verbal app. If you're looking for a secluded place to stay this is definitely the place to go"

We loved the property! It was the perfect weekend getaway for us. Nice and quiet and had all the amenities we could possibly want. Host was immensely gracious and fast to respond to any questions we had before arrival. We will definitely return!

About the host
Hosted by Gerald Dovel
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.
