Great weekend stay at the Cottage! The cottage is in a great location, easily walkable to shops and restaurants. Also, in close proximity to lots of great hikes. All of the decor is updated and stylish, and accounts for everything you would need to have a cozy weekend with friends or family.

Lovely property that we enjoyed!!
We visited Luray, the Caverns, and Shenandoah NP. Property is really nice, clean, comfortable, and located near grocery stores and restaurants. We felt completely safe. Beautiful, private back yard with seating and fire pit. It had everything we needed. Enjoyed the AC heating system. Great TV in family room. Quiet at night. Previous renters haven’t been kind to some of the walls in the property. Host was very nice and accommodating.

Great family stay
We had a lovely stay in Tyler's home. It was perfect for my husband and I and our two adult children. It was conveniently located to Luray Caverns and Shenandoah Park, as well as grocery stores and restaurants. I especially liked the updated finishes, large kitchen, washer and dryer and the fenced back yard with fire pit and charcoal grill. Tyler was very quick to respond to any questions I had. I would definitely stay again. Minor gripe would be the back bedroom lacked any storage for clothing and had a tiny bedside table. Also a couple more bath towels would've been great!

Perfect for a weekend away
This was the perfect size for our family and grandparents for a weekend stay. The house looks like it does in the photos, it was very clean. The location was right near the caverns and Jellystone which was exactly what we needed! Also a great playground nearby with a beautiful view of the mountains. Tyler was easy to connect with. We had a snafu with check-in/the smart lock didn't like us but he was on it. It really was a great location for a young family. The only thing I would share is that there are a few stairs leading up to the house from the gravel driveway (pictured, so I knew about it before booking) There are none inside which is great. Just in case you or someone you love cannot use steps or has difficulty. It was a bit challenging for my older parents because they have mobility issues. Overall, it was a lovely weekend celebrating our son's birthday and Tyler was a very responsive host.

Perfect for us!
We drove to Luray from NC to do some touring of the area, and Cottage by the Caverns was wonderful! The house was the perfect size, decorated beautifully, and we absolutely loved the fire pit area! The location was perfect to hop over to the caverns, and the neighborhood itself was quiet, although the traffic got a bit noisy, at times. I would suggest bringing a noise machine, or playing fan sounds on your phone! Other than that, the house was exactly what we needed, and the communication with the owners was top notch! Tyler and Stephanie, thank you so much for everything! We enjoyed our stay so much!!!

Good spot for a quick hiking trip
Comfortable place to stay while we passed through the area to do some hiking. Clean and nice amenities for the short stay. There were indications of a hot tub in the listing, but there isn’t one. I would recommend some type of curtain on the front door glass it gives a pretty full view of the inside at night.

Great house, close to Caverns!
Well kept home, everything you need in the kitchen, close to the Caverns. The host were wonderful, replied to any messages I sent very fast, only thing I would change about this house would be a blind or curtain in kitchen window and covering over the front glass door but that wouldn't stop me from renting this home again if I was to return to the area. Thanks for making my stay a wonderful one!

Lovely midcentury vibe
Had a quick weekend stay in this well cleaned, updated home in Luray. Everything was super easy-finding the location, parking, gaining entrance, as well as the departure. The neighbors are far enough away that we didn't worry about being too loud or vice versa. The home is nice and close to town. We were able to walk to a brewery with a food truck. It was also nice to have an enclosed area in the back yard for our dog to roam. The front porch is a great place to enjoy coffee in the a.m. Beds were comfortable, easy sleeping. Simply put, it's a clean, comfortable place to stay for a small group. The owners were easy to work with. We really appreciated their super quick responses to our questions. I actually would give them a plus plus for being so nice and accommodating. After we left (and had done a once over), they found our daughter's iPad that she left, and mailed it to her that very day. We are VERY grateful for their kindness. No comment on my daughter who loses things a lot more than we care to admit.

Mostly GREAT, but you failed on Handicap accessible which made the stay problematic.
The fact that front and back door had no hand rails made getting in house near impossible, no hand rails in bath tubs, to get in and out had to use neighbors drive and hike across grass and mulch. that is the reason for some low ratings. House.. Super, love the decorating, kitchen well ,equipped, very nice furniture, I am not a fan of foam mattresses, but for one night it was OK. I would rate most everything a 4+ or a 5, except the accessability. which was a 2. I partially blame Vrbofor not insisting on handicap acc. I dislike Vrbo and will go back to Booking. com which insists on meeting State lodging laws.
