| Perched at the foot of Massenutten Mountain, backed by the George Washington National Forrest, and overlooking the beautiful Shenandoah Valley and Blue Ridge Mountains beyond, Valley View cabin is an inviting little escape. Completely rebuilt (only the brick fireplace remains) in 2008 by a local artisan, the house features exposed wood beams (some still have bark) and richly paneled walls of hand milled local lumber, with picture windows exposing the lovely view of the valley below. The builder's artistry is evident in every corner. The house can easily sleep four, with a queen bed in the bedroom and a sleeper sofa in the family room. Comfortably furnished with all new appliances, charcoal grill, flat screen televisions, DVD players and satellite TV, books, games and movies, you can enjoy the wonderful activities and sites of the area or simply sit on the deck, enjoy the view and exhale. About two and a half hours from downtown Washington DC and less than two hours from Dulles International Airport, the house is the perfect opportunity to unplug and enjoy the unparalled beauty of the Shenandoah Valley and river. Whether you enjoy a day on the river, exploring local wineries, or chilling out all weekend - you'll find it all here. If you've never had a mountain vacation before, prepare to fall in love, no matter what the season is. Activities include enjoying the Shenandoah River right down the street, horseback riding, fishing, canoeing, white water rafting, tubing, the Luray Caverns, exploring downtown, or just sitting on the deck and relaxing. Pets are very welcome! Please see the rates schedule for the minimal pet fees. We invite you to come discover this retreat and it's charming surroundings, and to revisit again and again as the paneling mellows with age and the seasons change. Specifics: - Family room with sleeper sofa and loveseat, flat screen TV, DVD player and satellite TV - Kitchen with all new appliances, coffeemaker, toaster, microwave, dishes, glasses utensils and cookware. - One bedroom with queen bed (and beautiful view of the valley) with flat screen, DVD player and satellite TV - One bathroom with tub/shower - One storage room to stow your gear in - All linens and towels - Deck with charcoal grill 4 Wheel Drive in Snowy Weather Things to do: - Everything river related at Shenandoah River Outfitters, a short walk away - Luray Caverns - Horseback Riding - Trout farm fishing - Historic downtown Luray - Skyline drive and Shenandoah National Park Tips: - The nearest shopping (for anything) is about twenty minutes away - either plan on stopping in town on your way in, or bring what you need for a day or so. Once you arrive, the last thing you'll want to do is drive back down the side of the mountain to go grocery shopping! - Grill accessories are provided but be sure to bring charcoal and fluid, and plan on grilling. It just tastes better there for some reason, we can't explain it. - As long as you are sitting outside with the grill going and your feet on the rail, you may as well bring bug spray and citronella candles. - The kitchen is complete with the basic pots and pans necessary but if you are a gourmet, you may want to bring your favorites. - The house is stocked with books, movies and games, check the small trunk by the door. - The only internet access is dial up, but we encourage you not to worry about that. If you have no choice, be sure to arrange for dial up access from your internet provider. - For horseback riding and the many adventures the Shenandoah River Outfitters provides, we recommend you call in advance for reservations. - Bring your camera!
