Riverfront Shenandoah Getaway w/ Kayaks & Tubes!

Reviews

• 5/5

  This was such an amazing place. Wonderful river and nature sounds with wide open space to have so many great backyard games and fun. Fire pit was well stocked with wood and made for the center of our evening activities. The place had everything we needed and is only minutes from a grocery/gas station. Only 19 minutes away from the Shenandoah’s too with many trails to pick from.

  Property location was fantastic- the grounds and proximity to the river were awesome. The house itself was spacious enough for our group of 7 adults. Our golden retrievers loved exploring the yard and swimming in the river. Only negatives were that the trash toters were full when we arrived and only had a few bags removed during our week long visit. And the cottage that we intended to use had a problem with the water filtration system- the water smelled terrible- like being smacked in the face with sulfur- which rendered the cottage unusable. A real disappointment since it’s such an adorable addition to the property. Heads up if you’re bringing your dogs… There is a large neighborhood dog that roams around freely. He is friendly with people but we didn’t want to chance there being a problem between him and our dogs so we had to be on alert whenever we were outside with our pups.

  Manager's Response:

  From the owner: "Thank you for your thoughtful feedback and for highlighting how much you and your dogs enjoyed the river access and spacious yard.
  - We appreciate you bringing the neighborhood dog to our attention; we were not aware of this and will look into the situation to ensure guests and their pets can relax safely.
  - Since your stay, the water system has been fully upgraded. We replaced the iron pipes with polyvinyl, added a sediment carbon filter, and installed a new salt tank to remove minerals and eliminate odors.
  - We also continue to work with our waste service to ensure trash collection is completed more consistently between guest stays.
  We’re glad you enjoyed the property overall and hope you’ll return to experience the improvements."

  Loved the house and the river. The smell in the cottage was worse than last year. Something about the septic when you run the water. Neighbors and lawn guy were great!

  From the owner: "Thank you for the feedback. The cottage was newly renovated when you stayed with us, and we appreciate the review. I have updated the salt system since your stay, and it has removed all mineral smells. I hope you stay with us again."

  4/5

  We had a great time! The listing about the size of beds is incorrect and I've messaged the owner. The 1 room that says 2 double beds is 2 twins. There is only 1 king on entire property in basement and there are actually 4 bathrooms. Just want to let people know.

  Kitchen was well stocked, albeit randomly organized, the bathrooms were super clean.

  Be aware the river is a few minutes walk from the house, (you can't see the river from the house). The grill is awesome and there are a lot of tubes but they need to be blown up.

  We all had a great time and appreciated the coziness and decor of the place-the price seemed a bit high for what we got but it's a great spot!

  Area is quiet and relaxing. Last section of road is unpaved. Manager was available and ready to help with any problems we had.
