Poppy's Hideaway on the Shenandoah River with huge lawns and hang-out areas

Welcome to Poppy's Hideaway, our family getaway, a name provided by our five grandsons. Enjoy a quiet romantic weekend for two or invite friends for a great weekend hangout. River fun, mountain hiking, biking, horseback riding, strolls down the Luray Greenway or take a drive down Skyline Drive; all are within a short distance of the cabin. Our home is 6 miles from downtown Luray and 3 miles from the Shenandoah River Outfitters.

The cabin offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, warm cozy amenities, huge yard space and is directly on the Shenandoah River. Purpose built as a vacation cabin, you will not find a more-roomy private river experience than this anywhere in the area. Acres of lawn surround the cabin on all side and there are no neighbors in sight. Hundreds of feet of private shoreline mean you can nap in the hammock, fish or take the canoes out without being bothered by others or hearing the noise or seeing the sight of other neighbors.

One king bed and two queen beds will comfortably sleep six and we have additional bedding for a max of 8. The kitchen offers gas cooking, refrigerator with ice maker, everything you will need for a great meal. If you'd rather cook outside, we've got you covered with both gas and charcoal grills.

On a rainy day, there is still plenty to do inside. Free Wifi internet and satellite TV will keep you connected. There is a landline phone with free local and long distance calling. There are books, board games and movies to rummage through. Everywhere you turn, this house has what you're looking for!

Stunning mountain views and sunsets from the covered porch or enjoy the river views from the sun deck. There is something for everyone and NO traffic, just a relaxing weekend hide-away! Make a huge campfire and tell stories with your friends late into the evening hours!

This is a beautiful cabin. It was clean, had everything we needed and it is on a beautiful lot on the river. It matches the pictures perfectly and was a wonderful place to spend a couple of days.

Wonderful Spring Break Vacation
We absolutely loved staying here. Our dog enjoyed the large yard to run in. We loved the firepit for making smores at night. The house had a beautiful view of the river. Everything was clean, beds were comfortable, and kitchen was perfect. The house was also a 20 min drive to the National Park entrance where we spent most of our days hiking. We would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic property
We loved the weekend at Poppy’s hideaway. The weather was perfect so we were able to spend the days entirely outside on the big lawn, by the river, in the kayaks and on the swings. But even if we’d been stuck inside, it would have been cozy and comfortable enough for all of us. The kitchen was well stocked with equipment for cooking and trailheads were just a short drive away.

Beautiful house
House as advertised online. Very nice home on the water with huge flat yard to play outdoor games. Giant fire pit and fun for everyone. Inside was beautiful. Owner was very responsive and fast to restock the firewood upon arrival.

Absolutely Amazing Stay!
Loved staying here and definitely will be back! The kids absolutely loved all the games and movies. They didn't even mind when we lost power during our stay because of the storms that came through in the evenings. We absolutely loved playing in the river, painting rocks, and just sitting there on the patio taking in the fresh air while the kids play on the swing set. The house was clean and provide you with comfortable amenities. The grocery store wasn't far either.

Amazing!
We have been fortunate enough to stay at Poppy’s Hideaway twice this year, once over the summer and again Christmas week. Both stays were wonderful! Our Christmas trip however was magical! The house is cozy and has everything you need. The property is breathtaking! Highly recommend to anyone that is looking to get away and disconnect. I feel that our trips to Poppy’s Hideaway have truly brought our family closer together, as we created very special memories! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Slice of heaven!
If you are looking for a beautiful secluded getaway among the trees and the mountains and cool clear clean water this is the place for you ! We spent 6 wonderful days at Poppys Hideaway and had a relaxing getaway. We spent our days sitting in the Shenandoah River or a short canoe hop down the calm river. The house has unbelievable scenery from every window and all the modern convinces you could ever want! This is our second trip to Poppys and will not be our last! If you have kids who like to play outdoors they will love it!!

A Lovely Respite
Our second time at Poppy's Cabin. It is just really a lovely place to be. If you are looking for a relaxing place of respite and privacy then this place is for you. It is in a beautiful setting and the cabin itself is really nice and it is clear that whoever built this cabin gave it a lot of thought to placement within the setting and the views were just so nice and tranquil. My family and I spent our days half relaxing and half partaking in all the adventure that nature has to offer in this Shenandoah Valley Setting. We did not want to leave and go back to the day to day rat race back home. It was hard to leave and it was a great escape. Thanks Poppy!

Poppy’s Hideaway s a Hidden Gem
This is our second time staying here. It is a gorgeous cabin on the river. It has a huge yard and direct river access. There is a great fire pit, which we used almost every night, and firewood is provided. The beds are super comfy as is the huge sectional couch in the living room. This cabin has everything you need from bedding, to towels, to a fully outfitted kitchen and laundry. The owners provide paints and brushes for everyone to paint river rocks and add them to the rock garden in front of the house. Under the house is a really great outdoor living area with a television, seating, dining table, sink, fridge, and grills. We loved this cabin. They also supple many games, books, and dvd’s.

Bugs inside the house
We are not huge complainers and we’re fine with bugs outside the house because that’s part of the point of escaping to the country, but we were frustrated by the number of bugs (boxelder beetles) inside the house. The sliding glass doors on the river side of the house weren’t well sealed, letting dozens of boxelder beetles inside the river-side bedrooms (which included the master bedroom). In addition, the window well of the master also had hundreds of dead boxelder beetles on the inside because the frame of the screen was bent and there was a mud dauber nest (thankfully abandoned) inside the living room slider. We sprayed the sliders on the morning of the second day and were then able to remove the remaining beetles after that, but it was frustrating and was clearly a result of poor maintenance on the sliding glass doors.

Amazing time! Can't wait to go back!
We spent a wonderful week at Poppy's Hideaway enjoying the lovely house, the river, and the perfect fire-pit! The open downstairs portion of the house was our very favorite part!! Truly an awesome space to hang out, watch tv, listen to music, grill and chill! We spent so much time down stairs drinking coffee in the mornings, painting our river rock on the rainy day of our stay, having a nightcap in the evenings, or just hanging out and relaxing after time spent on the river. We have only been home from our trip for a week and we already cannot wait to return!! The house was ideal for us (two adults and a large dog) - everything was clean and well maintained, the river access is right off of the backyard of the property, and the location was perfect. Plenty of privacy on the property but still only 10-15 minutes away from towns and shopping.

Great place to stay
Poppy’s Hideaway is exactly as described on the website. Everything was clean, and the yard and river was liked by everyone, especially my dog. This place is in a nice location where nobody is very close, but it is still close enough to the national park and stores.

Perfection
Absolutely perfect. The cabin is wonderful! The beds are very comfortable and everything worked as it should. We especially enjoyed the downstairs area and watching baseball in the evening breeze. The puppy loved running in the ample yard and the old dog even got in on the action. The river was as peaceful as ever and we caught a ton of bass. The young adults loved the campfire time in the evenings. The upstairs deck area was perfect for drinking coffee in the mornings. Poppy's Hideaway is one you won't regret! Thank you for sharing this slice of heaven with us! This is a gem of a rental! We absolutely loved it!

Fantastic getaway
Property is perfectly located....a private and peaceful retreat yet close enough to Skyline Drive and the awesome Luray attractions. Cabin is very comfortable, yard is perfect for all outdoor activities & s'mores at the fire pit, river is amazing for fishing, tubing wading, canoeing and exploring. Everyday we discovered something new and saw a variety of beautiful wildlife on the property. Definitely a special place!
