Stay in Shenandoah
This was a great property. It was clean and the hosts were very nice. Very cool view of the mountains and my kids loved the horses.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property at the top of the mountain, it was so peaceful and beautiful. We loved (and I mean it) the road up to the house. And is really close to Shenandoah National Park. Definitely a place we would love to visit again!

Beautiful little spot in the mountains
The photos on line do not do this property justice. The view of the mountains during the day and the stars at night is spectacular. The cottage and grounds were clean and well kept. Bedrooms were quite spacious. Perfect location for a relaxing stay and exploring the Shenandoahs. The mountain road to access the cabin may be challenging for smaller cars. 4X4 probably preferred for inexperienced drivers. Overall, highly recommended.

Beautiful, Quiet Retreat
The road leading up to the house is mostly a dirt road, sometimes steep, but our truck made it up just fine in 2 wheel drive. The house is situated on top of the mountain with a glorious view out front! Plenty of space in the yard if you had kids who wanted to run around. The front porch is great for sitting and taking in the view. The house itself has everything necessary for a pleasant stay - TV, kitchen, couch, nice beds, great hot water. I was delighted with the whole experience and hope to stay there again.

Great spot
Good launching point for trips to Shenandoah. Cabin was clean and as described. Host was helpful and responsive. Would definitely recommend and will book again if and when we’re back in the area.

Great Value, Great Views
The stay at Brian's place is worth the drive up the dirt road to get there.
I am glad we got there the first day before dark.
The property and house were a pleasant surprise, given the location. We had everything we needed to cook meals there and have restful sleeps.
We hiked Rose River Loop trail and White Oak Lower Falls trail on Brian's suggestion. Both reasonable driving distance and both great ways to experience Shenandoah.

Great Cabin!
We had a great stay!
The view was spectacular and seeing the horses with our 2 year old was a hit. The cabin was clean, spacious and adequately stocked with kitchen supplies. The drive was easy and it was close to Shenandoah National Park. We will definitely stay again if we’re in the area!
