Cabin, Pool, Hot Tub, Lake, Wineries and Mountains Oh My!

***Pool open May-September. Heated option available at additional cost. If your dates aren't available on the calendar, please contact the property manager for inquiry.***

Secluded on 12 private wooded acres overlooking a quiet lake, you will find 6 bedrooms and 5 full/2 half baths in over 6,000 square feet of log cabin living.

Vaulted ceilings, a game room, and a surround sound theater room with reclining seats await you and your guests. A chef's kitchen is completely stocked with all the necessary supplies to help you create the perfect getaway meals or cookouts on the grill. Evenings on the decks look west for a gorgeous sunset over the Blue Ridge mountains across the lake. Finish your nights off with a dip in the hot tub to wash your worries away.

The location is perfect for friend and family trips as it is near multiple wineries, breweries, antiques, and local Main Street shopping. Don't worry if it rains; you can fill your days in the dedicated puzzle room, theater room, or pub/game room, which includes a pool table, foosball, ping-pong, and air hockey. Even better for families with young children, as the house is stocked with kid-friendly amenities (toys, pack-n-play, stool high chair, utensils, plates, and sippy cups). All within an easy drive to Charlottesville, Luray or Shenandoah National Park, VA.

Incredible Oasis
This property is an amazing hidden gem that we consider ourselves very fortunate to have found. Driving up the wooded driveway not only takes you to this wonderful home but to an incredible oasis. I can't rave enough about how clean everything was. We always rent mid-late August and very frequently properties are looking pretty tired after being rented all summer. This was not the case with Blue Bird. It was immaculate, including the windows! I loved, Loved, LOVED that the trees on the lot were not sacrificed for the sake of lake views. Don't misunderstand, you can see the lake but it is very natural and beautiful. There were even bald eagles and deer. Cori and her team were just a text away and very responsive. We had an amazing time visiting breweries, and vineyards as well as Shenandoah. We went horseback riding at Graves' Mountain and antiquing at Country Shoppes of Culpeper. The property is close to restaurants and shopping and grocery stores. Being able to bring our dogs is such an added bonus and I really appreciate pet-friendly properties. An all around 5 star vacation!

A Touch of Heaven
Bluebird Cabin is an amazing hidden gem overlooking a beautiful lake in a mountain setting. My grandchildren loved the pool, the bunk room ,and watching movies in the theatre room. There were toys, games and puzzles as an added bonus. The home is beautifully decorated and well laid out for all to have their own privacy. We are already talking about coming back for our next family vacation! The hosts were available throughout our stay to answer any questions and responded immediately to my texts!! I highly recommend this hidden treasure!

Magnificent
Everything was better than imagined. It was a wonderful home to make family memories both indoors and outdoors. You could never be disappointed in this beautiful home. The owner thought of everything to make it a special vacation spot. I have never been to a home with so many supplies. I didn't want to leave and I will go back one day. My 12 year old grandson said we should go there every year-now that's quite an endorsement!

Amazing property for 3 generations
This property has been voted the “best vacation house” by everyone in our group; ages 18 - 80. The pool area was just amazing for the VA heat wave. The family used every outdoor space during our stay. The game room and theater area was a hit by the younger crowd. The puzzle room was perfect for the yearly vacation puzzle. Comfortable beds throughout the house, areas for quiet time and anything you would need to create meals is in this kitchen. The owners and property manager were very quick to respond to any questions we hade. Thank you Cori and Ted for sharing this amazing property with others! We hope to return in 2026. The only downfall was that the trail to the lake is very steep. Older family members weren’t able to enjoy lakeside or kayak. A switchback trail would make this property an 11/10.

Beautiful place
Worth staying with tons of amenities. A negative would be access to the lake. Very steep hill and not easy to navigate. Was planning on doing a lot of fishing but couldn’t due to lake access. Also, the dock was very unstable as it was one of those small plastic docks. This place would be a triple A+ if lake access was much better with a better dock. Also, too may trees to enjoy lake view from house and deck areas.

Top notch property
This property has so much space! We had a large group spanning a very wide age range. Truly offers something for everyone and we never felt on top of each other. The outdoor space is beyond exceptional and the kitchen was fully stocked. Not only was everything clean but the quality is very nice. Communication was seamless and response time was nearly immediate. We will be fortunate if we can stay again in the future.

Great home base to explore the area - and stay in when it rains
The house was impeccably maintained both inside and out! Our friends and family were all super comfortable and enjoyed making use of the amenities. The house is also super dog friendly, including a fence around the property! The main downside was the bunk room didn't have its own shower, so if you have a lot of people staying in there, just make sure the other folks upstairs are prepared to share their ensuite bathrooms.

We loved everything about this property. Our only regret was not being able to have a few more days here! We were there for the eclipse and watched from the backyard. We gathered for meals at the dining table which held all of us perfectly. We prepared meals together in the beautiful lot hen with the top of the line appliances, gathered in the great room for family photos and discussed our memories. We travelled easily to Luray Caverns and Shenandoah Park and took in the beautiful mountain vistas. We highly recommend this property and hope to revisit on the future.

This property was booked as a hosting location for a group of women who met in high school and/or in college (we all turn 60 this year!). The house was perfect for the group, with beautiful interior and exterior spaces in which to gather. We utilized every amenity available to us!! Pool, hot tub, game room, kayaks and paddle board, and a lovely kitchen. Would recommend this property to a similar group, or to a family with kids. There are so many activities and lovely amenities! Thank you for a most memorable stay.

Our extended family of 11 thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Blue bird cabin. We spent most of our time in the pool and hot tub. We loved our mornings kayaking & fishing on Lake Pelham. The fire pit was a nice evening addition with lots of s’mores. The gourmet kitchen was spacious and well stocked. It had every appliance needed. The teens absolutely loved the basement gaming areas. The tweens absolutely loved the theater room and private bunk wing. It was a fantastic week. Thank you Cori for your hospitality and easy communication.

Amazing house!
The house is amazing and has just about everything you need. The kitchen is well stocked. Tons of beach towels provides. The game room and dock kept the 8 kids very entertained. There are kayaks and a paddle board that are in great condition. We didn’t know it was a non swimming lake but the pool and hot tub were perfect. There is a basketball net on the side of the pool which was great. Food store is a half mile away and the town is a 7 minute drive. Tons of board games. We had to contact the host a few times and they got back to us immediately. We would definitely recommend this home. Our three families had an amazing week there.

Reunion Weekend
I knew there was something extra special about this listing the second I saw it and as most guests have said, it somehow manages to over deliver in person. The house is huge, but laid out with such thoughtful intention that it's still cozy. As adults, en suite bathrooms make trips 1000x better and we all loved having our own. Every kitchen cabinet and common area was outfitted with amenities/supplies most rentals do not include. The dishwasher was a powerhouse (coming from NYC this got me, lol) and made daily clean up a breeze. The bluetooth sound system/central acoustics were better than the speakers we brought. Pool and hot tub were perfect to dip back and forth from as the evening temperatures dropped at night. Downstairs game night went until 3am. I've never stayed in a place so designed to not need to leave! Quite literally our only complaint was wishing we had more time to utilize everything on the property. Worth every penny! A special thanks to Cori for answering all my questions along the way and triple checking in to make sure everything went smoothly. There's a reunion round 2 here with our names on it.

How many adjectives can I squeeze in….
Spectacular, marvelous, astounding, remarkable, sublime, incredible. The pictures truly do not do this home justice! We spent most of our time in the backyard area. I mean, how could you not. Pool, hot tub, pergola w/comfy couches, corn hole, and Adirondack chair surrounded fire pit area. The pool’s lounge chairs were high end and the large outdoor Bluetooth speaker was definitely a bonus. I am not sure if the listing shows a picture of or mentions it, but there is an awesome enclosed outdoor shower. The teenagers in our group appreciated all of the activities in the basement game room and playing basketball in the large garage. Every family in our group said that they have never stayed in such a well-stocked/equipped rental. Literally everything you could possible think of is provided. Beach towels & tons of pool toys, plenty of dry firewood, kitchen appliances and gadgets— you name it. I will note that the walk down to the lake is very steep & contains roots and rocks. A couple of people in our group regularly went down in order to launch a paddleboard or kayak, but it was not like other lake homes that we have rented where the entire group could sit and lounge Lakeside. For a weekend and given the amazing backyard, this wasn’t a big problem for us, but I felt it was worth mentioning for other travelers. I HIGHLY recommend this home & wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.
