Wonderful property

We spent a peaceful (if rainy!) week here to celebrate our wedding anniversary. This home is beautiful, bright, very clean and comfortable. This was by far the best appointed kitchen of any rental in which we have stayed (and we have used VRBO for many years on multiple continents). Highly recommend this home!

Great retreat near Shenandoah

Was a wonderful trip to get a way for a few days and enjoy the outdoors. The host, Michael, is extremely friendly and knowledgeable of all the key places you’ll not want to miss out on. The home is beautiful, clean and quiet. I wish we had more time to spend and explore the area. Hoping to have a repeat trip in the future with more than three days to spend in the area. Thank you Michael!

Beautiful, secluded hideaway near SNP

We just loved this beautiful home and the private setting. Most days we had deer and their fawns come eat from the apple tree while we enjoyed the screened porch. The home had every amenity we could hope for and it was beautifully decorated. The owners were wonderful and supportive even though our travel plans got rerouted several times due to airline mishaps. Supplies and a nice restaurant were 5 minutes away and more extensive choices were only 20 minutes away in Madison. But we especially enjoyed the easy access to Shenandoah National Park.

We had a wonderful 3 day getaway

This house is very much more than advertised. Michael gave us a tour of the house which gave us a sense of what was available and where everything was located. The kitchen was well provided - not that we used it very much - we were out most of the days and got meal while we were running around. Everyone was impressed with the house and pleased that we Michael would share it with us. Thanks Michael.

Amazing Christmas Getaway

What a wonderful, beautiful place to spend time with family. Everything was laid out perfectly, and the attention to detail was meticulous. The owner was attentive to our needs, and gave us a tour of the house and history of the area before we settled in. The backyard swing allowed our older teen and young adult child to play. We were super close to White Oak Canyon Trail, and old rag as well as Graves Mountain Lodge, which we hit on the way out for a delicious breakfast. Beds were cozy, adult coloring books and games provided entertainment and kitchen was stocked for all our cooking needs. We will be back!

Can't wait to Return!

Perfect weekend getaway to Shenandoah. The house was beautiful, perfectly set up for two couples and fully stocked with everything we needed. The grounds were gorgeous especially the field in back where we would gaze at the stars and the firefly show at night. Spectacular! The house is perfectly located near some of the best hikes in Shenandoah including White Oak Canyon and Old Rag. Lastly, Michael was the perfect host. He made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and was always available for questions and inquiries. Looking forward to rerturing this summer,

Awesome Hideaway near Shenandoah National Park

We wanted to visit this area and we found this gem contemporary cabin to stay at while we hiked and enjoyed some of the best Virginia state has to offer. The accommodations were everything we wanted: clean, modern, spacious, easy, very well furnished and great attention to detail to make our stay comfortable, enjoyable, restful and easy. We stayed four nights over Memorial Day weekend. We usually get homesick for our own bed after two nights, but not this time. The bed was very comfortable. Everything was clean and the stay was refreshing and restful. We hiked and explored the Luray Caverns and local restaurants and vineyards and it was always a pleasure to return to the Hideaway at day’s end for a quiet night to rest. Our host Michael was so very accommodating and hospitable and made us all feel secure and informed for our stay exploring and enjoying the area. There was nothing we wanted for during the stay. We look forward to another stay at the Hideaway in Syria, VA for our next exploratory visit to the Shenandoah Park and adjacent areas. We highly recommend this place and Michael the host.

Fantastic home and property.

The house was beautiful, extremely comfortable, well-furnished and appointed for our needs (all the kitchen/laundry essentials), and the homeowners were extremely responsive (a branch came down after a storm obstructing the driveway and they had it cleared within an hour of my text). They had also prepared detailed binders with information on the area (attractions and eating locations). The property was also very private sitting well within the 30-acre lot it was built in. For full disclosure, there is zero cell reception, the satellite WiFi caps out at around 10Mb (and goes out with significant weather), and the homeowner is likely to want to meet with you at the beginning/end of your stay. I don't consider that latter a negative at all (he was extremely courteous and helpful), but if you're the reclusive type that doesn't want any interaction just be aware. All in all we had a fantastic stay, were very close to what we wanted (Old Rag and a few other hiking/winery spots), and will absolutely opt to stay here again if available.
