About this property

The Great Escape - Near everything yet off the beaten path

  • Located in the Shenandoah Valley our cabin is located on a quiet street on a 1/2 acre lot. The backyard is fenced for big and small dogs. On the back porch is a nice gas grill. A few steps down is a hot tub. The hot tub is nice especially when returning home from a day of hiking in the Shenandoah National Park which is only 20 minutes away. Inside the home are two bedrooms, each with a king size bed. We furnish wireless internet and satellite TV. I will email you a list of activities that are all close to our cabin. There is something for everyone at The Great Escape.

We had a wonderful stay! The cabin is super clean and stocked with everything you’ll need. Our 9 month old baby had a blast crawling in the spacious living room and our 17.5 year old chihuahua was very comfortable. They also enjoyed the beautiful lawn! We created precious memories here as a family of 3 that we will cherish forever! Thank you for letting us enjoy your beautiful cabin!

We had an amazing stay at this cabin. The space was spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully set up for a relaxing getaway. The kitchen had everything we needed, the beds were comfortable, and the outdoor area was perfect for morning coffee and evening unwinding. The location struck a great balance — peaceful and private, but still close enough to local shops and trails. The host was responsive and made everything easy. We’d happily stay here again.

This is a wonderful cabin. Very clean and cozy with a beautiful fireplace. Easy access to Shenandoah National Park. The cabin is on a peaceful, quiet street. Very scenic with a nice view of the sunrise just a quick walk up the street. Don and Lina were great hosts and did a great job of communicating and keeping us informed from check-in to check-out. We didn't have any issues during our stay.Highly recommended! We will come back again for sure!
