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.

The place was amazing! It was well done; had everything you could need; and immaculatly clean. It was everything we hoped for and more, including the hot tub! We ended up having to cut our visit short because of a sick daughter, but we hope to come back sometime in the future.If you are coming to the Shenandoah National Park, this is a great place to rent.

We have stayed at The Great Escape numerous times and love the cabin. It is perfect for a long weekend in the mountains. During the days, we enjoy hikes in Shenandoah National Park and the George Washington National Forest. In the evenings, we relax in the hot tub, prepare dinners in the very well-equipped kitchen, and sleep soundly in the comfortable bed. A fully fenced in back yard for dogs and a washer and dryer are two of our favorite amenities. Don and Lina are excellent hosts, making sure the cabin has everything we need and always being accessible.

Overall fabulous stay! Fully furnished Cabin with fenced in backyard for our dogs to play in. Conveniently located close to Luray, NC and local attractions like Luray Caverns and Antique Car Museum.
