Satisfying for a weekend getaway
Property was easy to locate and readily accessible. Did not realize property was on a mountain that had steep hills, just a fear of mine so it was more jarring for me but it may be nothing of substance for someone else who is used to country living. House itself was super cute and intimate! We loved the layout and hot tun was clean enough to the location and environment

My husband and i came out to the area to see the caverns and skyline drive. This cabin was such a great spot for both of those activities. The cabin was clean and in a perfect area. The view was amazing and the hot tub was so nice.

Read the fine Print, towels/sheets on request only
This property did not meet the expectations I have for VRBO properties. We showed up late, around 9 PM and wanted to shower and go straight to bed, but came to find there were no towels or sheets on the beds. Upon further evaluation of the listing, there is a mention that linens are only provided upon request, and for an additional fee. This was not listed in the property description, or the Important to Know sections, rather it was buried in the Amenities, scrolling all the way to the bottom and listed in the notes section. I made this mistake, hopefully you won’t. In addition, there was no soap or shampoo provided in showers. I guess I have come to expect sheets and soap when I’m paying to rent a property, this was a major pain point for us as we started out our first night in frustration.

A short getaway
A very nice cabin in a great location. We loved getting in the hot tub after a long hike, especially at night when the stars were out. Overall the cabin was clean and had everything we needed apart from the upstairs bathroom, there was still trash in the trash can and hair on the bathtub. Other than that we had a wonderful stay. Thank you.

Perfect
We spent a week at the Chalet in early June, and it was perfect. The view from the front room/deck is unforgettable. The view was equally compelling in the early morning light and the evening dusk, in the night when the valley below was illuminated by hundreds of fireflies, and when a curtain of heavy rain slowly crossed the mountains before reaching the house. From the deck we saw lots of deer and a raccoon. The deck gets full bright sun in the early morning, but there is a second outdoor space by the parking that is wonderfully shaded
and is perfect for outdoor breakfast (and has a fire pit). There are other houses nearby but you can barely see them, and they were quiet the whole time we were there. It was easy to get to Luray (I recommend Hawksbill Brewing and the Asian Station), to the Thornton entrance of the National Park and the State Park, and to the river. Don't forget your linens, including towels. For us it was absolutely perfect; I can't think of anything that could have made it any better.

Nice property, but the amenities were not up to par
We stayed for a total of 4 nights. Our first reaction when we pulled in was that the road was a gravel road and on a very steep hill, which is definitely not stated on the listing. The outside and inside of the cabin is nice and I would say clean. The only reason I would give this cabin such a low rating was because of the amenities… and the wasp nest on the deck. We were trying to enjoy the hot tub outside and had to cut it short because a carpenter bee was digging itself a home inside the cabin wood directly next to the wasp nest. My friend is allergic to bees and wasps… so this is not ideal.
Another thing is the $50 linens. I was under the assumption that because I was spending $50 on linens that they would provide the sheets needed for both bedrooms, but only provided sheets for 1 bed and pillow covers for 2 pillows. The towels and wash cloths provided were great though, but definitely need to up their game with the sheets. The sheets were also not put on the beds, but rather put in a laundry basket in the bathroom. We drove 7 hours to the cabin and were dead tired and went to go to bed and there was no sheets on the bed. As someone who just drove 7 hours to a cabin, that was really infuriating.
Pots and pans were provided which was awesome, as well as plates, cups, bowls, and silverware, but no measuring cups were provided. 1 roll of paper towels and 1 roll per bathroom of toilet paper were provided, but no tissues were provided. Overall not the worst cabin.

The Chalet is perfect for a small group of friends to get away for a few days. The house is well appointed, the beds are super comfy, and the views unbeatable. It’s secluded while also easy to access, and near a lot of great hiking. This will be our weekend trip rental whenever we can get it!

weekday getaway
we did a short trip, april 9-11th. The weather was wonderful but with that came the bugs, bees, and other flying critters! Not too bad for the most part. the screened in porch was wonderful to have and the hot tub offered a wonderful view of the mountains. We tried to have a fire with the wood provided but struggled with it not lighting after several attempts, next time we would bring our own wood. We did have a power outage for a few hours but was soon resolved. overall we had a wonderful time and loved the privacy this location offered!
