Great Getaway
We were traveling the east coast and picked Hawksbill retreat as a location to meet our son who lives in DC and connect for a week. The property is beautiful, the cabin was great and we especially liked the wrap around porch. There was only three of us so we probably only used half of the unit. The Mare House can accommodate probably 6 people comfortably. The location right outside the Shenandoah National Park was terrific and we also made day trips over to New Market and also Monticello.

Lovely Luray-area cabin
We really enjoyed the place. House is exactly as described. The bedrooms are REALLY big and there's a ton of natural light. We have two kids and they really enjoyed exploring the grounds and the playground across the street. One thing to note is that a lot of the nearby hikes are on the other side of some hills with no road access, so look ahead at any hikes you're planning to do, and make sure you're not an hour's drive away!

We had such a wonderful time this weekend.at the rental. It was perfect for two families for four under five. Great layout. Tons of indoor and great outdoor space. We had some spectacular sunrises! The beds were top tier! Great water pressure and loves the heaters in the bathroom. We would definitely stay again! This is our second stay in a hawksbill cabin.

Perfect honeymoon!
My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon. It was clean, comfortable, and surrounded by beautiful scenery! About 15mins give or take from the Luray Caverns. Less than 5mins from a lovely little restaurant called the Hawksbill diner. Our stay was so peaceful and everything we dreamed of getting a break from home! 10/10 recommend and would love to stay here again in the future!

Absolutely gorgeous house! Beautiful inside and out. We spent a long weekend here while hiking Shenandoah NP. House was very comfortable and hot tub was a great treat after a day of hiking the mountains. Only downfall was spotty wifi (at best). It was not really an issue so we did not contact the hosts. Great location for a quiet getaway.

The Mare House/Cabin
What a great mini vacation!!! The Mare Cabin was absolutely wonderful. My sweetheart and I had a great time. The owner stopped by to chat and that just put a personal touch in making us feel welcome. It was nice to check into a clean well kept cabin. I wish that the fireplace would have worked in the Master bedroom for a more romantic appeal, but still a great place to stay. We will go back to stay at one of the Cabins on the hill because the view is breath taking.

Beautiful Location
Overall the property is great. We enjoyed the peace and quiet of the property. Plenty of room for two couples. Beautiful area. The cons were the wifi is sporadic and did not work well in the bedrooms. The mattress in the master bedroom off the living room sinks to the middle and needs to be replaced. The bathroom in the hallway has an issue with flushing. Again - overall a great place.

Weekend Getaway
This cabin was a perfect setup for 2 families to have a nice relaxing weekend. 3 full bathrooms allowed everyone to have their privacy. Also the multiple entrance ways made it nice, with private deck areas all around. Of course the hot tub was the icing on the cake. Close drives to the Luray Caverns and Skyline Drive. I would recommend it!

Page county is beautiful and the home is charming and exactly as described, but sadly there isn’t much to do as far as restaurants or shopping. You have to drive about 30 minutes to find anything worthwhile.

Great location, great cabin
First time in Shenandoah area in years and we searched for some time looking for the right cabin in the right location. This place was great! Easy check-in and super clean cabin with good accommodations. The cabin itself sits on the Hawksbill retreat property and there are a few cabins/lodges on the property, most of which seemed to be occupied (though I think I only saw a few cars come and go a handful of people every now and then). Easy drive to Luray and grocery store a few miles away. Hot tub was nice and clean. Highly recommend if you're looking for a quiet stay in the region.

My family and I had a great week long stay. It was great for all ages . We had 3 kids ranging from 1 to 9. The location is close to a lot of family friendly places. We thought the house was a little more private then it was but we had no issues. There wasn’t a bunch of people at the other cabins .

Very nice weekend stay
Very nice and clean house. Beds were comfortable and the rooms were very spacious. We couldn’t find an exterior light near the hot tub, but it ended up making stargazing in the hot tub a great experience! The only complaint we had was that two of the fireplaces didn’t work, including the living room one, which would have been nice at night. Everything else was wonderful. The lease agreement process is much more strict than any other other's I have seen, but we didn’t have a problem.
