Cute Cabin. Great location
Cabin is stocked with everything you need and more. Spacious. Outdoor area is superb. Hot tub was perfect. Beds weren’t very comfortable but we were so tired from hiking we quickly didn’t notice. Would definitely stay again and have recommended to multiple friends already.

Great stay
Wonderful stay in a great, comfortable house. The morning sunrise from the back deck was beautiful. The house was convenient to restaurants in Front Royal, hiking in Sky Meadows and Shenandoah River State Park and the northernmost entrance of Skyline Drive. The gravel road to the house was steeper than expected, but not a problem with AWD. Would definitely stay again next time we're in the area.

Perfect Getaway
We wanted a quick and easy weekend getaway and this house was perfect. Hot tub, firepit, gas and charcoal grill, location near trailhead. The kitchen had all the amenities we needed for making meals. The coffee was a nice touch. The owner was very responsive and had great recommendations for nearby wineries & sites.

Fantastic retreat
The home was perfect… kitchen is really well stocked with dishes and utensils etc. Very nice decor too. Just a few items to note- there were no washcloths and the kitchen garbage can fills up quickly so we had a lot of bags accumulated in the laundry room since there are no outside containers, due to wildlife around! Definitely recommend this home!

Clean and well decorated property
Overall great experience. The property was clean and well kept. Mostly everything was newly renovated recently. Kitchen and bathroom was clean and modern. Overall no complaints. However it wasn’t as secluded as we hoped with multiple houses/properties very close by.

Cozy cabin great for friends retreat
The cabin is really adorable and so cozy! It’s only 10 minutes from the Shenandoah park entrance and so many cute shops and restaurants. There’s also two wineries within a 5 minute drive. The host was great and very responsive and even recommended some really good restaurants for our stay. We stayed in March so it was perfect hot tub weather and the hot tub was very clean and well maintained. Overall, a great property. The only downside was a lack of what I’d call “basics” like washcloths, extra toilet paper, and paper towels, but you can easily pick those up because you’ll want to do a grocery run beforehand. There were lots of towels so no issue there. Overall a great stay!

Great home with lots of amenities
We had a lovely stay at this nice home with a beautiful deck and tons of amenities. A sparkling clean hot tub helps soak away any soreness from the hiking you'll do on nearby trails (but bring an old bathing suit as the chlorine can bleach out colors). There is also a fire pit in the yard and a wood stove inside. Eating out on the deck is wonderful at the nice table with an umbrella. We recommend stopping at the Martins Supermarket in Ft. Royal to stock up on food prior to arrival, as you'll find all the cooking utensils, dishes, and appliances you'll need, as well as a cupboard with essential spices. The host was incredibly responsive...answered texts right away and was super helpful. Highly recommend for a fun Shenandoah Valley get away!

Great remote getaway
This place is wonderful. The hot tub, wood burning stove, fire pits are all just as stated and shown in pictures. Everything is clean. Beds are comfy and kitchen is well stocked. Bathrooms are updated. Master Bath is beautiful. The location is great for winery tours and hiking. If you enjoy shopping or nightlife, this would not be a good choice. We thought it was heaven. Just a warning that if you are older or have mobility issues, the stairs are narrow and all bedrooms are upstairs. We didn’t have any issues but it’s an older home so the stairs could be a challenge for some. Also, try to arrive before dark, especially if it’s rainy or foggy. It can be a challenge to find in a dark rainy night. Waze took us right to it but the turn into the driveway is easy to miss under those conditions. We would definitely stay here again.

Great Getaway House and Location
Stayed in Chester Gap with family, two couples and one adult child. The AT is a short walk from the house, and wineries are very close. We went tubing on the Shenandoah River.The host was very good about reaching out before our arrival, and the house was clean and ready for us. The layout was perfect and allowed us to spread out and relax. The deck and hot tub were perfect. We all agreed this was the perfect spot to get together.
