About this property

Lone Bear Cabin: Lv2 EV, WiFi, River Access, Mountain Views, fireplace, hot tub

THE SPACE
Experience the comfort and charm of Lone Bear Cabin, featuring three inviting bedrooms (1 king and 2 queen beds), two full baths, and a spacious living area. There’s even a cozy futon in the basement, perfect for a child or young adult. Nestled in a private, secluded neighborhood surrounded by the Shenandoah River-South Fork, our cabin offers a peaceful escape with all the comforts of home. Relax on the huge deck, unwind in the spacious hot tub, or cook up a feast in our fully outfitted kitchen with stainless steel appliances. Enjoy the warmth of the fireplace, grill up some delicious meals on the gas grill, and gather around the fire pit for a memorable evening under the stars.

Lone Bear Cabin is conveniently accessible via a one-mile, relatively flat gravel road from the main highway. During major snowstorms, an AWD vehicle may be beneficial. We have a Chargepoint L2 Charging Station, perfect for guests driving electric or hybrid vehicles. This ensures that your vehicle is charged and ready to explore the beautiful surroundings.

GUEST ACCESS
Enjoy seamless self check-in at Lone Bear Cabin, allowing you to arrive at your convenience between check-in and check-out times. Early check-in (before 4 PM) may be available based on availability, confirmed by 9 PM the day before check-in. Late check-outs are not available to ensure the cabin is ready for incoming guests.

HIGH-SPEED INTERNET
Stay connected with Starlink internet, offering speeds between 50Mbps to 100Mbps—perfect for working remotely or streaming your favorite shows.

HOT TUB HEAVEN
Indulge in the ultimate relaxation experience with our 600-gallon Sundance Maxxus Hot Tub, comfortably fitting up to 8 guests. Our dedicated cleaners and hot tub service company ensure it’s always in top condition. For stays of 5 nights or longer, we offer one complimentary visit from our spa company to test, clean, and treat the water upon request. If you ever feel the hot tub isn't up to your expectations, just give us a call, and we'll have it serviced promptly.

SERVICE AND SUPPORT
We take pride in providing exceptional service. Should anything not meet your standards, we have several service contracts and area companies on retainer ready to assist you. We also provide videos and instruction guides for all house amenities to ensure a hassle-free stay.

PROPANE GRILL
Our propane grill is ready for your culinary adventures. We strive to keep a semi-full tank and a spare on hand. If both tanks are empty, a nearby gas station offers exchanges, and we’ll gladly reimburse you for the cost with a receipt.

LOCAL AMENITIES
Our community provides two private river access points for renters—the first 0.9 miles away with parking available, and the second 1.2 miles away for drop-off and pick-up. Enjoy tubing for about two hours or kayaking for about 30 minutes between these points.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS
Our fully stocked kitchen has plenty of utensils, cups, pots, plates, silverware, and dishware. We provide sheets, bath towels, large beach towels for the hot tub, soap, shampoo, conditioner, laundry detergent, and dishwasher detergent. AT&T provides LTE connection, and guests have reported good connections with Sprint and T-Mobile. A house phone is available for your convenience. Enjoy fresh well water from our state-of-the-art filtration system, but feel free to bring your own if you prefer.

To maintain a pet-free environment for guests with allergies, we do not allow pets. The indoor fireplace is gas, so you won’t need firewood, but please bring your own for the outdoor fire pit. Respect local burn bans from February 15th through April 30th each year to protect our National Forest.

Wonder Stay at Lone Bear Cabin

We had a great time at Mark's cabin in the wood of VA. Location we quiet and tranquill. Hot tub, five pit, and pool table made out time at the cabin enjoyable. Away from the cabin it was close to the National Park, Luray Caverns, and some cute small towns.

Relaxing family time

The property is in excellent condition, and as described. The host is extremely responsive and provides fantastic detail about the property. Very quiet rural neighborhood down a gravel road. Fantastic views from the cabin. Only complaint is the king bed was overly firm and the frame was noisy. The comfort of the bed just didn't match the excellent quality of everything else in the property. We enjoyed the selection of DVDs, games, and jigsaw puzzles.

Relaxing stay at a fantastic house!

Had a fantastic stay. The house is lovely and well stocked. We loved the pool table. Didn’t use the hot tub- but it’s huge! The location was great- spent a few days enjoying Shenandoah and also went to Luray and Front Royal. The views from the house are amazing. It was nice to just relax at the house and take it all in. We also enjoyed working on a puzzle in front of the fireplace. Would definitely stay again!!

Late winter hiking

Fantastic place to stay as home base for hiking in Shenandoah National Park. Quiet comfortable location, 20 minutes to Front Royal, 30 to Thornton Gap via Luray. Views from the porch were stunning. WiFi worked great for the half day of office work. The beds were comfy, the home luxurious after a day of winter hiking. Great owner who was very responsive.

About the host

Hosted by Mark

Host profile image
We live in Reston (90 minutes away) and we own two vacation homes out in the Shenandoah. Lone Bear Cabin is our oasis when I'm not otherwise traveling for work or hosting guests.

Why they chose this property

My Dad lives nearby and I've enjoyed visiting him in his cabin over the years. I purchased this place to create similar memories for myself.

What makes this property unique

This place allows you to enjoy the outdoor space while eating or BBQing.

We also don't see this as an investment property, we see this as our vacation home. We reinvest everything back into the property
