Property Description
Madison Run Cottage is the perfect getaway located in a gorgeous and private mountain setting. Guests will enjoy total peace sitting on the deck while listening to the creek surrounded by the 20 acres of forest adjacent to the Shenandoah National Park. Beautiful views are present from every direction and plenty of parking is available on the large property. The front porch is the perfect place to start each day enjoying a cup of coffee before heading out on one of the endless outdoor opportunities. You will be in the family room when you enter the cottage, it has 2 comfortable chairs and a sofa to relax, play games, or watch tv. The kitchen is fully equipped with pots, pans, utensils, coffee maker, etc. to make delicious meals. The kitchen closet is where you will find the new washer and dryer. Right off the kitchen is another cozy sitting area and a stove to stay warm on chilly nights. The 1st bedroom has a king bed, dresser, 2 night stands, and closet. The 2nd bedroom is large with a queen bed and a chair to relax, 2 nightstands, cabinet and closet. The 3rd bedroom is small with a twin bed, chair, and closet. The bathroom has a tub/shower combo. Madison Run Cottage is walking distance to trails in the Shenandoah National Park, 30 mins from Skyline Drive, 20 mins to both Massanutten Resort and James Madison University, and 5 mins from Grand Caverns Park. This is a perfect retreat to relax and enjoy the outdoors, while not being more than 15-20 minutes from the University town of Harrisonburg full of shops and restaurants. Wonderful hiking is just 1 mile away on Madison Run Trailhead in Shenandoah National Park. Visitors can either drive or walk to the trailhead. To get to the Madison Run Trailhead, you would turn left out of the driveway and then take another left when the road forks. The trail begins at the end of that road. You can just stay on the old fire road, which is so nice or take a small trail up the mountain.About pets:No pets allowed.About checkOut:Check out before 11:00 AM.About children:Children allowed: ages 0-17.About checkIn:Check in after 4:00 PM.About smoking:Smoking is not permitted.About minBookingAge:Minimum age to rent: 25.About events:No events allowed.

Overall the stay was great the beds could have been more comfortable. I woke up a few time sweating due to the mattress cover.when we walked down to the river there was a bunch of broken glass from beer bottles it looks like. We cleaned it up. Wonderful cottage though.

Perfect Mountain Getaway We LOVED our stay at this property! Such a beautiful home and very clean. The outside is gorgeous and surrounded by flowers. Had so much fun with my girls playing in the creek, which is larger than it looks in the pictures. So many fun hikes and things to do close by. We wish it was our house

This cabin was so cute,way bigger inside than it looked , There is a creek running behind the cabin , I sat on the porch in the mornings having my coffee,listening to the water,watching deer while smelling the wonderful scent of the gardenias rowing close . When I arrived I was pleased to note a coffee station all set up,what a nice and thoughtful touch . I had a great stay here

You’ll Wish You Could Stay Longer What a lovely cottage, beautifully appointed, with a great mixture of all modern conveniences and antique furniture. The kind hosts have thought of everything, from coffee service to toiletries. The setting, on a stream at the foot of Shenandoah National Park, is a serene, wooded slice of heaven. We hope to be back one day.

Very clean and excellent communication. Loved the creek and wanted to sit on the porch to enjoy it but at this time of year there are a lot of bugs. Recommend screening the porch in so it can be enjoyed without the bugs. The kitchen is well stocked but would have loved to have a grill.

Graduation Came in for our daughter’s graduation and this was a very nice quiet and secluded property. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a place to stay. We most likely will book again this summer for a retreat week. Thanks for the hospitality
