The Great Escape - Near everything yet off the beaten path

Located in the Shenandoah Valley our cabin is located on a quiet street on a 1/2 acre lot. The backyard is fenced for big and small dogs. On the back porch is a nice gas grill. A few steps down is a hot tub. The hot tub is nice especially when returning home from a day of hiking in the Shenandoah National Park which is only 20 minutes away. Inside the home are two bedrooms, each with a king size bed. We furnish wireless internet and satellite TV. I will email you a list of activities that are all close to our cabin. There is something for everyone at The Great Escape.

This is the cleanest and most organized VRBO we have ever stayed at! Don and Lina were very responsive everytime we had a question. Their property is located within 30 min of Skyline Drive and several caverns and has a gated yard our two small dogs loved. Front and back porch are great to relax on!.

Perfect relaxing family vacation spot!
The cabin was perfect! Clean with lots of space to relax. The hot tub was relaxing each night, the kitchen was well stocked for cooking meals and the daily visits by deer and bunnies was a highlight for our daughter. Very comfortable! Highly recommend for any family visiting the area!! The owners were flexible and even let us extend our stay!

Shenandoah Valley Retreat
We really enjoyed our time at this little cabin in the valley. Perfect size for couples or a small family. The dogs had a blast running around the fenced in backyard. It had basically every amenity you could ask for and may be the cleanest VRBO I’ve ever stayed in. It is perfectly situated between 2 entrances to Shenandoah National Park. Not terribly far from Shenandoah River State Park (recommended) and walking distance from George Washington National Forest. There are several small towns nearby with restaurants and groceries. We enjoyed Main Street in Luray with nice shops and restaurants complete with a river walk. The check in / out process was simple and the hosts, Don and Lin were welcoming and accommodating. We would definitely stay here again and would recommend to couples with dogs or small families.
