Shenandoah Hideaway

Come be wild with the mountains! Our cozy and comfortable family property is bordered on two sides by the National Park and only a 1.5 mile drive (or walk) on a quiet road to foot access into the park. From there you are just over a mile from intersecting with the Appalachian Trail and then the Big Meadows area and all of its phenomenal hikes. And while there are some phenomenal sunset views from Skyline Drive and along the trails, it's hard to find a better chance for an explosion of color and vista than from the living room, balcony or patio of Shenandoah Hideaway.

Our home is under 20 minutes from the beautiful town of Luray, with its famous caverns and charming Main Street, and only 30-40 minutes from northern and southern automobile entrances to the National Park. We are less than 10 minutes from basic conveniences in the town of Stanley, and just over 30 minutes from Massanutten Resort and on to Harrisonburg. 

It is important to mention a few facts first. We have a phenomenal western view that often provides a breathtaking sunset, but that view comes with a steep climb on the road to the house. It is a paved, state-maintained road, but demands precaution during poor, especially winter, weather. Also, there are lots of animals in the forest around the house, including: venomous snakes, black bear, coyote, deer, skunks and many others. Please be mindful of your safety! Additionally, while are doing our best to manage the bugs in the house, this house was built in 1964 and at times they come with the territory. However, we have the house equipped to help you manage them if needed. Finally, the wind and the sun can be intense at times given our elevation and exposure, so please keep that in mind with your belongings outdoors.

All that being said, our family bought this cabin in 2024 with the hope of creating a comfortable hiking retreat for ourselves that we can also share with others. We have added a new gas fireplace, outdoor walking, sitting and storage spaces, and also ceiling fans and new furniture to the interior. We have strong internet service and a well-equipped kitchen and laundry space. If you enjoy hiking, it is a 1.1 mile hike to the AT and then multiple excellent day hikes are available, including: Lewis Spring Falls, Dark Hollow Falls, Rose River Falls, Big Meadows, Hazeltop Mountain and more.

This home accommodates up to four people, per county regulations, but includes two bedrooms, each with a queen bed, and a loft with a large pull-out sofa. There is a full bathroom on the bottom floor and a half bath on the top floor. We also have fitness equipment and outdoor games in the car port, as well as a hammock, fire pit and picnic table on the back patio, with lots of firewood provided.

Our family welcomes you to getaway from it all at Shenandoah Hideaway!
