The Great Escape - Near everything yet off the beaten path

Located in the Shenandoah Valley our cabin is located on a quiet street on a 1/2 acre lot. The backyard is fenced for big and small dogs. On the back porch is a nice gas grill. A few steps down is a hot tub. The hot tub is nice especially when returning home from a day of hiking in the Shenandoah National Park which is only 20 minutes away. Inside the home are two bedrooms, each with a king size bed. We furnish wireless internet and satellite TV. I will email you a list of activities that are all close to our cabin. There is something for everyone at The Great Escape.

Cozy cabin

Such a nice getaway and so very cozy. We spent the weekend here as a getaway following our wedding. It was a quiet area and the layout was great for me with mobility issues and the yard is incredible and a great place for dogs, we had our service animals with us and the amenities they provided for dogs were great too. We will definitely try to stay again.

Great Stay in Shenandoah Area

We just got back from our 5 day, 4 night stay in the Great Escape. We loved the cabin. It was super clean and comfortable. We were able to hike in Shenandoah easily from the cabin and experienced the greatest night sky on the back deck every night. The kitchen was a great plus as we cooked breakfast every morning. We highly recommend and are already planning on our next stay.

Perfect Mountain Home Away from Home

We have vacationed at The Great Escape more times than we can count. We keep returning because it is a wonderful cabin. It has everything we need - fully stocked kitchen, very comfortable furnishings, convenient location, etc. It also has some very nice extras including a nice hot tub and a fenced in backyard, which is great for the dog. Don and Lina are excellent hosts and make communication easy. We hope to return yet again soon!

Perfect relaxing family vacation spot!

The cabin was perfect! Clean with lots of space to relax. The hot tub was relaxing each night, the kitchen was well stocked for cooking meals and the daily visits by deer and bunnies was a highlight for our daughter. Very comfortable! Highly recommend for any family visiting the area!! The owners were flexible and even let us extend our stay!

Another Perfect Escape

We have stayed in the Great Escape multiple times. It is always clean, comfortable, inviting, and well stocked. The neighborhood is quiet and a short walk to the National Forest. Our dogs have a wonderful time playing and exploring in the large, securely fenced back yard. Communication with the host is great, they are very helpful and responsive. I travel to the area to visit and do family research fairly often. The Great Escape is always my first choice for lodging.
