5 star view
My wife and I stayed her for an Oct Fall weekend and it was absolutely amazing. We were having a delayed celebration of our anniversary and just wanted a quiet stay, secluded, with an amazing view to enjoy the Fall colors - - and this place delivered to the fullest. Communication with the host was excellent, check-in was easy, and the cabin is very nice. You'll never leave the porch. 100% recommend and we will definitely be back.

Beautiful and relaxing home away from home
We had a wonderful and relaxing time staying at the Moonshine Mountain Cabin. The view is even more spectacular than the pictures show and the cabin was very clean, well stocked, and comfortable. The pool and hot tub were a great bonus, too. Definitely take the AWD/4WD recommendation seriously, though, the mountain roads are bumpy.

A little bit of heaven...you won't want to leave!
The cabin & property are amazing! The pictures do not do it justice! Our favorites are the wide open view of the mountains (great for sunsets & stars), the huge balcony/deck to sit on an enjoy the peacefulness & the view, and of course the pool & hot tub! The cabin itself is very clean & well-stocked, especially the kitchen! I've never stayed at a cabin that had so many things in the kitchen for us to use! We loved the panini press! The ambience, decorations, furniture, showers are all thoughtful, well taken care of, and make you feel right at home. I've already booked another week here because of how blown away we were with it all! I didn't want to leave! Thank you Charles! It means a lot to us that your shared this "little slice of heaven" with us!

Nice house with incredible views!
We had an amazing weekend hanging out in the pool and hot tub and grilling with the incredible view always in sight. The house was nice and clean, and fit well for our group. The bed in the living room was a little funny. Luckily our group was all close and very comfortable with each other, so it wasn’t a big deal. They also provided a little privacy screen to put up which was great (a second one would have been good though). I was a little nervous about the driveway based on other reviews and I stand by their reviews. The driveway is no joke, very steep, but the road leading up to the driveway was also a bit rough. My Subaru Impreza did well, but going slow to avoid pot holes was necessary to not bottom out on the road leading up to the driveway. The view at the top was worth it though! Over all it was an incredible place and I would go back!

Price for view = rugged drive
Although the listing recommends 4WD, that, to me, should be featured more prominently. The view from the home is spectacular, but guests should be acutely aware that the price is a rugged, steep drive. The home is nice and roomy; the exterior could use a little boost. Overall it was a lovely getaway.

Great weekend mountain getaway for our 10th anniversary!
My husband and I stayed the weekend of Oct 13-16th, 2023 for our anniversary and LOVED IT!! We even liked it better than Gatlinburg, TN! Everything was as described in the listing, especially the great views and spacious, clean cabin! We hope to return with our kids next time possibly in the summer so we can go in the pool. We spent most of our outing's in Rileyville and Luray, which wasn't a far drive at all. It's a nice remote location with no visible neighbors. The drive up to the cabin is no joke! Heed the warnings and bring a 4 wheel drive vehicle! I'm so glad we took our 4x4 mid size truck & not my AWD Chevy Equinox (because I think it would've struggled).. The only few drawbacks are no closets or coat racks downstairs for coats & the jets in the hot tub weren't too strong..

Friend Get away.
We had an awesome time at your cabin! The view was the best we have ever seen. Great for morning coffee! The driveway was a little tough for my front wheel drive car so would recommend you state that AWD or 4WD a necessity. Even though we had no issues, there was not a # to contact the property manager on your information sheet in the cabin. May want to add that. Otherwise, a great time was had by all :)

Fantastic Slice of Heaven
The pictures and description do not do this place justice. The interior was so much more than we expected. It was comfortable, gorgeous, and just what we needed as a haven. The porch area is where we spent most of our time. The views were magnificent. We sat there and stared at sunrise, sunset, and the stars. I’m fact, we could faintly see the Milky Way. If I have my way, we will be back.

Best part about the cabin was the view!
There were a few minor issues brought to PM attention and resolved. The house was not as clean as I would have hoped for the price point.. The road leading up to and the driveway is no joke! The best part about the cabin was the incredible view, absolutely amazing. Overall, we most likely would not stay again.

What a beautiful home with great amenities. Gorgeous views everywhere. I would agree with the owner that a 4 wheel or all wheel drive is necessary to get to the house. The only bad part was that my stay was way too short. 😊

Really loved this place. Like other reviewers said, you will need AWD to get up the driveway. And one of the king beds is basically open to the kitchen, so not a separate room. Other than that, it is a great place with amazing views.

About the host

Hosted by Charles

Host profile image
I bought the cabin to 'Escape' and help me to relax from life in the city, my whole world feels better for the sake of a short drive. I fell in love with the area and all it has to offer. 10 years on and I still have not seen everything and new attractions are still being introduced to the area.

Why they chose this property

The area is just amazing. It has National Parks on the mountains and now by the river. Civil War Sites, Flea Markets and Antiques, the river. If I am at the cabin with my active friends we have lots to do and if I am with some of my family that is older we can just relax and do nothing.

What makes this property unique

My son loves it and it allows him to explore nature and have experiences that life in the city does not offer.
Canoe trips are still as much fun now as they were the first time.
We now hike further than when he was a baby.
The view from the cabin is amazing.
