Not worth the money

Upon arriving, unable to access the prop as the code wouldn't work. After several attempts, we tried to contact the "owner contact" & only got VM. Left message. After waiting 15-20 minutes, ended up calling Evolve/VRBO. 1st person spoke w/ended up disconnecting us & we had to call back. The 2nd person we spoke w/advised she would contact owner & either she or owner would call us back. After another 20 minutes, she cb & provided us with a totally different access code then what was initially provided. After several attempts we were able to get in. Upon entering, there was a mildew smell. Overall, appeared clean and they did provide all of the basic kitchen items. The problems included: was in the 2nd bedroom, the bed sits approx. 3' off the floor & no step stool is provided, making it quite difficult. Additionally, the mattresses were very, very firm --- almost like sleeping on the floor. I would recommend the owner invest in mattress toppers to soften it up. We both were in a lot of pain after sleeping on the beds. Back porch was pretty much unusable as furniture was strewn about & there was a pan of old/used charcoal sitting on the floor. They advertise Fire Pit and Grill as amenities, but fail to mention to bring your own wood & charcoal. Making both useless, unless you want to drive 30 minutes to get some. Lastly, only provided 2 toiletpaper rolls, would have been nice to let guests know to bring your own. Definitely not worth 222 a night (with fees and taxes)

Thanksgiving getaway

Perfect place for our annual Thanksgiving getaway, we had everything we needed. Close to the town of Luray, and Luray Caverns, and a short drive to Skyline Caverns. We would definitely stay here again. We didn’t have a need to contact the host. Thank you for letting us enjoy your home for our holiday.

Shenandoah Trip

We stayed here for our trip to Shenandoah National Park. Upon arrival, we met the owners of the house (privately owned and ran through a rental agency: Evolve). The hosts were both very friendly and accommodating. On a side note, if you have questions, message the number provided as Evolve is slow to answer and they simply manage the listing of the property. We found the location to be convenient for what we needed. Only 15-20 minutes from Luray and 30 minutes to the Thorton Gap entrance gate at SNP . The house is super close to the local canoe and kayak outfitters and other local options. The house is among a small neighborhood of local rental properties with one house being super close. This isn't much of a problem for us but we would really like to see blinds or curtains be added in the living and dining room as the neighboring house had guests and were outside late into the night. The bathroom window could also use a covering as well. The kitchen, however small, did have the vast majority of the items we needed. Only cooking oil and/or butter need brought along, with any of your must haves. As some other reviews have noted, the reception is quite poor. I struggled at times to load my gps, email, webpages, or even stream music. You should consider this if you require reception. There is also no wifi, nor TV programming. There is however a DVD player with some movies at the house. With no wifi, we recommend you do any initial research on activities/travels before arrival.

Overall nice stay

The house was nicely set up for 4 adults. When we got there the kitchen was a bit messy but nothing a quick wipe down didn’t fix. I will say that cell service was not great and with the property not having WiFi it made it difficult to check emails, stream music, etc. other than that we really loved how close it was to the tubing place and close enough to town to get to go out for a nice dinner.

Exactly as listed

Great experience! Exactly as listed. The only thing that would have made our stay better was blinds or curtains on the windows. It was scary at night knowing that people could see in.

Nice place!

This little cottage looks just like the pictures inside. It is cozy and well decorated; not too little, not too much but just right! It was clean and well stocked with linens and towels. Both beds were comfortable with nice sheets and quilts. I want to elaborate on the kitchen. It was probably the best supplied kitchen I have ever seen in a rental home. All of the dishes, pots and pans, baking dishes, utensils, knives, tableware, glasses and appliances were very nice and practically new. The kitchen was not missing anything that we needed. Actually, there was a lot of things we didn't even use but it was nice to have them should we have needed them. We were very impressed by the extra care they have put into the kitchen! We will definitely rent again if we are in the area. PS Oh, one or two more things! There was ice in the 2 ice trays in the freezer! This was a real plus on a hot day! And the well water was really good!

Ideal spot for those visiting Luray or for those that want to canoe or kayak the Shenandoah

My family (2 adults, teenager, tween) stayed here on a family trip to the Luray area. This well-furnished, clean, cozy little place is far enough away to serve as a getaway from the NoVA hustle and bustle, but close enough (20 mins) to Luray to be a good staging point for a family vacation in the area. One of the biggest and unexpected perks that it is almost literally across the street from Shenandoah River Outfitters, so if canoeing or kayaking the river is something you want to do, this place is ideal. The fire pit made for a nice evening, one night during our stay. The gravel road to access the property, while in good repair, is steep enough to pose a challenge to those on street or touring motorcycles. Not really a complaint, but we were wishing there were curtains or blinds on the living room's south-facing windows to provide a bit more privacy from the house next door. Absolutely would stay in this property again if I found myself in the local area once more.
