Relaxing!

The house was exactly as described, there were no outside noises other than birds, and the home was near enough to the small towns we could run out for dinner at some local places. It was SOOOO relaxing and just what we needed.

Amazing Riverside Retreat

I’ve stayed in many VRBO cabins/houses and this one is by far the most cared for. Immaculately clean, great amenities, beautiful location, fast owner response times. Large selection of kitchen cookware and utensils which came in handy.

Wonderful stay at the River House

Our two families stayed at the river house for a week, and had a wonderful time! Although it's not a huge house, it's well-designed for a big group: big couch for watching movies, plenty of beds, and lots of activities in and out of the house, including kayaks and tubes for the river, lawn games, and board games. We watched the neighbor tend to beehives and enjoyed sitting on the porch and relaxing. Great place!

Weekend getaway

What an absolutely lovely house and location. Everything was perfect! The house has everything you need and more. We enjoyed sitting outside and taking in the peaceful surroundings. Star gazing around the fire pit, a few board games around the dinning room table, fly fishing and kayaking. Would definitely stay here again. And our host was so kind and easy to communicate with. Thank you for making our getaway a huge success!

The perfect getaway

I spent the weekend here with my siblings and niece. The space was perfect and comfortable for 6 adults and a baby. Amber was a delight to communicate with and had a great welcome book ready for us. The house was clean and cute and the property itself was beautiful and serene (very buggy - bring bug spray!). The location was convenient as we were coming from NJ, NC, and DC. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you Amber!

My Best Birthday Getaway Yet!

My friends and I really enjoyed this property. It was spacious, warm and had everything we needed for a fun and relaxing time indoors and outdoors. We like to cook and the kitchen was just perfect. And property was right near one of my favorite wineries - Star in the Valley. Amber made sure we were taken care of and even took the time to include a balloon for my birthday. I look forward to returning!

We had a really nice stay here. Loved the location - very peaceful. We were a group of 7 adults and found the house to be a good enough size for all of us. The kitchen was wonderfully stocked for all types of food prep, including grilling. We loved all the games and outdoor activity equipment, and the televisions were plentiful for rainy days. Two comments for future travelers: The triple bunk room says “for kids or groups”. Middle-aged adults in our group found those beds difficult to climb in and out of, so we thought that those bunks were best suited for kids. Also, access to the river was difficult for those in our group who were not sure-footed. It is a steep descent. The floating dock wasn’t as big as the picture suggested, and did not feel stable enough to put a chair on it to relax or fish from. That being said, several in our group got out onto the river and really appreciated the inner tubes that were provided for floating. All in all, a very nice week!

Birthday girls weekend

This property was perfect for me and my 7 friends to do a girls weekend and celebrate my birthday. The host was wonderful at communicating, had the house adorably decorated for the holidays, and even left us a sweet gift for us all to enjoy. We spent most of our time on the porches enjoying the quietness of the area and the scenery. We had an amazing weekend and it was in large part to the house and the setting, thank you so much for making it comfortable and welcoming!

New Years Trip

Every year, my friend and I go away on a New Years trip with our families! This year did not disappoint. There was so much room for activities. We built a fire outside, while the kids used roller blades to pretend the basketball court was an ice skating rink. It was wonderful! Well-supplied, spacious, and clean! We would definitely come here again!

Perfect for a weekend getaway

My friends I got together for a guys' weekend, and this house was perfect! It's a really nice place with comfortable beds, a great table for board games, and a super short drive to Woodstock, which has some really good restaurants. Amber, our host, was friendly and communicative, even going so far as to ask her neighbors to send a video of the snowy roads so we can get a sense of how treacherous they were (they were fine; we had no problems). I'm already thinking about when I can come back with my wife and kids. I've stayed in many houses like this in the Shenandoah valley, and I really think was one of the best ones I've found. Highly recommended!

A Wonderful Place to Relax

Our family had a wonderful time playing, exploring, and relaxing at this property. The house was beautiful and comfortable for our party of 9. The yard is very spacious and was perfect for basketball, volleyball, soccer, Kan Jam - really, for any outdoor game! We enjoyed the fire pit with plenty of room to gather around, and the hot tub. Every day we spent time in the river tubing, kayaking, swimming, fishing, and looking for crayfish. We also enjoyed walks or runs on the quiet main road, which has beautiful views of the mountains all around. If you are looking for a place to unwind and enjoy the beauty and solitude of nature, you will love this riverfront retreat! And the owner, Amber, was great to work with!

Thanksgiving Celebration

We made a great choice in choosing the Riverfront Retreat for our Thanksgiving celebration. The large dining table fit our group and its close proximity to the kitchen made serving and cleanup a breeze. One bedroom is set apart from the others which worked perfectly for one couple who ducked out at 5am to catch a flight out of Dulles (about an hours drive) without disturbing others in the group. We enjoyed hiking in Seven Bends State Park and even toured the Shenandoah Caverns (a short drive). Woodstock has limited restaurant opportunities for dinner but the Woodstock Brewery never disappointed. The Woodstock Food Lion was excellent for groceries. The weather was cold during our stay so we did not partake of many of the outdoor amenities. Our gathering around the firepit was cut short by rain. In better weather, there would have been so much more to do outdoors around the property. But we were content in the very comfortable indoors just visiting and eating. Great property! Would Highly recommend!

Wonderful time in the valley.

It was a short stay for us, only two days, but we loved every minute of it. We were looking for a place to break up the 11 hour drive home from Tennessee to NY and we were fortunate to have found this location.The scenery is jaw dropping. I would describe it better here, but that would ruin the incredible surprise you get when you turn the corner just minutes from the house and see it for the first time…The house was beautiful and spotless and contained everything necessary to feel at home. We cooked dinner both nights and everything we needed was available. We had a great time hanging out by the fire at night and all of the firewood was provided for. My dog had a better time running around on the massive front lawn. Unfortunately we did not get to make use of the river access, but it is very convenient (at the edge of the driveway) and all of the equipment is available for use.Lastly, Amber by far was the most attentive and responsive host I’ve experienced thus far. I annoyed her with questions three separate times and her responses were almost instantaneous. Overall, I was extremely satisfied with my stay and highly recommend!
