Host cares that you make it asking for a phone call once you arrive as it can be challenging to find the cabin. Beautiful property and the cabin fits exactly what you’re looking for when getting away for a weekend.

The cabin was cozy, private, and clean. We enjoyed spending time inside, offline, and fishing in the nearby pond. It's a great home base for enjoying Shenandoah and near excellent hiking routes. It was a great stay.

Had a great trip to this beautiful area. Cabin was very nice & in a very secluded area -be aware driveway very narrow. Pond with nice dock & inner tubes…. but if fishing is important to you we did not have much luck & had several visitors who showed up during our stay that took over the dock to make things not so private. I definitely recommend the cabin for convenience to Skyline Drive & Charlottesville.

The cabin was adorable, cozy, clean, and just what we were hoping for. No internet. No cable TV. Just the sounds of nature and the isolation we very much needed. I'd love to come back when it's colder and fire up the woodstove. The fishing was good early in the day. There were maps up of nearby hospitals, which I really appreciated, but also local street maps and guides. We went to an apple festival just up the street and it was delightful

Me my wife and my brother was so stressed from working we had to get away. Ive been looking everywhere to find a place that was right for us then we found the cabin with a private lake. The whole weekend we enjoyed being away from people technology and enjoyed being with each other.

Very cozy. Great fireplace. Plenty of wood. Nice shower. Loved the seclusion. So quiet. Host was great. It was clean. Pine paneling & exposed rafters. Nice fridge and stove. Good to be off-the-grid for four days (no TV, cell service or internet). Easy access to Sperryville (which I love). Great store to buy good steaks, salmon, wine & produce. I bought my NPS lifetime Senior pass at the Thornton Gap ranger station (and Old Rag Day pass online). Hiked Dark Hollow Falls & Old Rag Mountain. Visited Big Meadows and Skyland. Easy access to White Oak Canyon trail, too. Minor suggestions: Bed was a little soft for my taste, some of the fixtures needed light bulbs or may not have worked.

Great Escape

We spent just 3 short days in this cabin. The location is beautiful and so lush in the spring. The opportunity for some casual fishing in the pond was fantastic. We appreciated the air conditioner, full kitchen, and collection of DVDs.Nothing super fancy but a lovely spot for a weekend escape to the mountains.
