Riverfront Cabin! Fireplaces, Hobby Farm & Kayaks

Over 700 5-star reviews! Visit to our mountain oasis in Luray, VA for a recharge! Acres of riverfront and gorgeous views, right from the porch! Use our water equipment and private river access in the spring, summer, or fall. Cozy up next to the authentic, stone, wood-burning fireplace in the winter. An easy drive to the Luray Caverns, Shenandoah National Park, George Washington National Forest, Massanutten or Bryce Resorts for skiing, and much more. Fresh farm eggs and firewood sold on site. This year-round cabin is your next vacation!

We have three unique cabins named after famous pioneers: Daniel Boone, Buffalo Bill, and Bass Reeves. Our Annie Oakley pier is great for launching kayaks or canoes or just fishing and hanging out. Walk our Lewis and Clark trail to enjoy wildlife and river views. Let the little ones wade into the river and splash around at Pocahontas Point.

You will be staying in our Daniel Boone cabin, as shown in the listing pictures, which is our largest cabin and perfect for two to three families or a group of friends. This historic, pioneer style cabin features hand hewn logs dating back to the eighteen-hundreds, paintings from the original owner, country kitchen, and a Baldwin piano. The cabin was lovingly relocated and nestled on 16 acres in an idyllic setting along the bank of the Shenandoah River. Enjoy morning coffee on the large screened in porch while you watch the beauty of the mountains and river unfold. Spend the day canoeing, kayaking, tubing, or fishing and the evening catching fireflies, roasting marshmallows over a campfire, grilling, playing board games, or sipping spirits by the river. On the colder days, cozy up next to the authentic wood burning fireplace.

**Fireplace Closed April 1 to October 31**

Beautiful and relaxing
A beautiful property, well-appointed, with close proximity to local attractions (we loved Luray Caverns). We had a wonderful weekend visit and wished our schedule allowed us to stay longer, as the property was exactly what we were looking for. The porch overlooking the river was our favorite spot to relax! The farm fresh eggs were delicious, too!

Perfection on the River
Our group of 12 rented the cabin to celebrate a birthday. The kids had a great time using the provided tubes, canoes and kayaks. The loved how accessible the river is from the property. The fire pit was perfect for nightly fires. The kitchen is small but is has everything you could need to cook for a group. We made three large meals with no issue. The Walmart is only 3 miles away so if you need something it's right there. The hosts were very responsive and easy to work with. We hope to come back again! Thanks

Wonderful old historic log cabin, room for the whole family.
Our family had a wonderful stay at the Daniel Boone cabin. It was clean on arrival and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The location is close to Luray Caverns and a number of hiking trails. The grounds are peaceful and there were a lot of wildflowers by the river. Annie Oakley trail which was nice. What I loved most was the history of the cabin with 19th century hand hewed logs, real wood floors, and a lot of old country charm. Staying there brought you back to a more simple time. The Kitchen was small but well supplied with everything we needed. There are two grills out back available for guests to use. Our family really enjoyed being right on the river and having the kayaks and canoes available to use. The hosts provided a croquet set which my kids really enjoyed playing. If you enjoy playing games, the hosts have supplied plenty to choose from. We brought our own boggle game and enjoyed looking up challenge words in the biggest dictionary I've seen. There are no TVs in the bedrooms which is fine by me. We also did not have good cell reception, but there is Wifi which worked OK most of the time. Some cons were the squeaky floors which made every movement heard by the whole house. There is only one bathroom with a shower on the first floor, which did not seem to be a problem for us as we were all on vacation time and in no hurry to get anywhere, but the house could potentially sleep 13 so it might be an issue with a full house. There is a powder room with toilet and sink on the second floor where most of the bedrooms are. Bathrooms seemed up to date and clean. Plenty of hot water. The attic area where our boys slept was warm when we arrived but there is a window a/c up there and after a couple hours the boys said it was comfortable. The lighting in the living and dining area could be improved. You need to open a window to vent the kitchen and bathrooms. Smoke alarm is a bit sensitive. Overall, it is a wonderful location and a wonderful house. I would love to go back

Ideal river spot for R&R
So peaceful. So fun. Tons of water toys - we tubed, kayaked, canoed, snorkeled (brought our own masks/goggles), fished, drove up to Skyline Drive (so close) for incredible vistas. Daniel Boone cabin was perfect for our family of five. Host Jennifer responded very quickly when we had questions. We’ll be back for sure!!

We loved it!
We had a delightful 3 night stay at the Daniel Boone cottage. Its historical charm swept us away from our city energy, and we enjoyed catching up with family by fireplace, on the small trail, by the water, in the nearby caverns, and over a home cooked Thanksgiving dinner. (My mom brought a roaster cooker for the turkey to keep the small kitchen freed up for other dishes.) Very clean cabin with the basic common amenities. Highly recommended for a nature getaway, especially during peak foliage or warm weather to use the river more. Thank you!!

We had a reunion of 8 college friends from 50 years ago and everything went great.
House was very satisfactory for a large group - just hanging out on living room or on porch. Plus, we had a big BBQ on last night which was fun.We all took advantage of kayaks and canoe and even caught some fish. Local restaurants were very good also.

Lovely spring break trip!
We stayed over spring break with a family of six and had a wonderful time! The property was rustic and authentic, with enough modern amenities (wifi, etc) to satisfy all. Our favorite part was making a fire next to the river and spending time fishing on site. The location was close to shopping (about 10 minutes from a Wal-Mart), which allowed us to easily stock up for our stay. We visited down town Luray, Luray Caverns, the Luray Rescue Zoo, took a hike in the Shenandoah National Park, and even took the kids on a JMU tour. Jennifer left clear instructions and guides to local spots of interest, and we were able to meet Bonnie, who takes care of housekeeping and does a fine job preparing the home for guests. All the kids said they had a great time, and so did we!
