Great Romantic Get-a-way

Stayed with my wife and dog. Everything was clean and ready when we arrived and just made a quick stop at the local Walmart for some groceries. Spent most days touring around the local area thanks to the several recommendations the host gave, and spent nights in the hot tub and cooking s’mores and watching the stars

Perfect fall getaway

Cabin is spacious, airy and the listing is very accurate. We enjoyed the beautiful kitchen and the many updates including the large master bath. Great proximity to Shenandoah NP, which was the focus of our visit. We were pleasantly surprised to find that the cabin did have WiFi, and also appreciated Annette’s responsiveness.

Amazing and Accessible

This property was absolutely stunning, it was in an amazing location. So quiet peaceful and relaxing, beautiful inside and out with plenty of space for families. As well being mobility challenged the property if fully wheelchair accessible. I am in a larger chair than most and had no issues getting into and around the property it was absolutely an amazing place. The hosts were very helpful and answered any questions quickly and provided all and more info then requested. I highly recommend staying here or at any of the properties the host provides. We will be booking again and planning to take other day with us next time. You will not be disappointed when staying here and will likely fall in love with the cabin the moment you go inside as we did...

Luxury cabin

Absolutely beautiful inside and out. My group had everything we needed with full kitchen and plenty of towels, comfy beds and nice hot showers. The hot tub was nice to relax in. The owners made it perfect for us. Check in and check out went very smooth. There is wifi at the cabin. Our only regret is not staying longer. Love this place

Beautiful cabin with great nearby activities

We had such a lovely time at this pretty cabin. Highlights were our hike on the Lion’s Tail trail. For anyone with little kids, it was about 15 min away and a .5 mile loop that was level, stroller-friendly and had a great access to point to the creek. We spent hours there! Our daughter loved the horse decor of the cabin!

Awesome getaway!

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. While the cabin is small in square footage, the rooms are spacious. It was very clean and was equipped with everything we needed. It's worth checking out the pond--the lily pads are beautiful--but watch out for ticks on the trail! A side note for fellow travelers...I have T-Mobile and had good cell reception at the cabin.

Review

It was a peaceful stay. It was spacious for me and my family. The cabin was very clean but in the pullout couch there was some dog in the mattress and sheets fur from previous person stay. Other than that it was a nice house. There was no lake that we seen and walked through but overall the stay was excellent. It was great and private and peaceful stay. We really enjoyed our time there. The one main thing I will complain is that there was absolutely no cell phone service and we have Verizon and spectrum

About the host

Host profile image
This was a project... although the end result - absolutely beautiful, with lots of customized features thru out our cabin. I started this project because I was taking care of my Mom and I needed to hire additional help...so we decided to restore this 1850's originally built cabin ... Charlotte G Kibler (my mother) passed away before I was finished however I know she would be proud of how it has turned out...I have designed cabin to accomodate the elderly and handicapped. We all need a vacation...It is hard taking care of your loved ones and this is when you deserve the vacation the most. So bring all and all will be comfortable...

Why they chose this property

I decided on this property for renovation because of the historic uniqueness and where it is located.

What makes this property unique

It's totally unique - there are so many benefits in staying here to list a few: private yet close to everything....
romantic....
handicap accessible....
Originally built in the 1850's - date is still in the original chinking made of horse hair...just to list a few
