A small, quaint, mountain-top cabin close to Shenandoah National Park. The cabin was clean and cozy with all the amenities you need. Beautiful view from the living room and outdoor hot tub.
My husband and I and another couple stayed in this cabin in Rileyville, VA for the weekend. The cabin was adorable and the views were spectacular. The hosts really thought of everything here. The wood burning fireplace, the relaxing hot tub, and the spare vehicles available to better climb the mountain…everything was perfect and we will definitely be back.
Somehow the photos don’t seem to capture how perfect this cabin is! I literally soaked in the hot tub and got to see the Milky Way and a million stars dazzle above most nights; and each morning brought a unique and beautiful sunrise. The cabin itself is spotless and welcoming- with seemingly more amenities than I remember listed (hair dryer was a welcome surprise!) Brian was very communicative and helpful. While there are other houses nestled into the mountain like the Lookout Canin, you really do feel completely secluded.
This was the perfect place for us to stay before and after the Appaloosa Music Festival in Front Royal. The views are outstanding and the layout was great for my friend and I. We enjoyed the peace as we read and relaxed in the hot tub. The drive up is no joke, very glad we had an SUV, though next time will ask for 4WD. There were animals scampering across the patio. Communication with Brian was exactly the right amount. Would highly recommend.
Thank you for sharing your cabin we enjoyed our stay!! The sunset views were beautiful!!
Items that might be helpful to others:
Pros:
Amazing sunset views
Very private and peaceful and had lights outside.
Hot tub ( not a big deal, but wish there was steps/rail to get in and out)
Internet and TV worked good
Propane grill for cook outs
Clean cabin with all your basic needs: microwave, stove, coffee maker, and toaster. Nice to have some cleaning stuff to use!
Close to the National Park scenic drive
Both bedrooms have their own bathroom which was nice!
Cons:
Very very rough entrance to get to the cabin with a steep gravel driveway with big rocks sticking out and big holes
( the owner does offer a SUV)
You have to park on top of a hill and carry all your stuff to the cabin at the bottom with several steps ( wasn't a big issue to us)
Small deck area, but big enough to put the chairs on.
Had to bring all your own bedding, but they do offer a service for a fee. Not a big deal, but was the first time we had to bring them and we have stayed at a lot of cabins over the years.
Really missed an outside fire pit it was the first cabin we stayed at without one, wish they would clear out some of the brush around the backyard area and make room for one. There was a very small wood burner inside, but we didn't use it.
Beware on your hikes and walks my dog ended up with 5 ticks so make sure you spay yourself and check your pets.
Hope this was helpful review to others.
Originally booked a smaller cabin, but a couple issues arose so the owner hooked us up with a better cabin right down the road. Great views off back deck with a hot tub. Comfy place, pretty much everything we needed
This quaint little cabin suited us. It was perfect! Not too big and just enough. The hot tub view was spectacular. The place was so clean and well stocked too. When we come back we will stay longer! We cant wait!
