Come be wild with the mountains! Shenandoah Hideaway is conveniently located 15 minutes from the beautiful town of Luray, with its famous caverns and charming Main Street, and only 30-40 minutes from northern and southern automobile entrances to the National Park. We are less than 10 minutes from basic conveniences in the town of Stanley, and just over 30 minutes from Massanutten Resort and Harrisonburg. But, if you’re here to hike, you can access the park by foot just over a mile up the road. In fact, Shenandoah Hideaway is bordered by the park on two sides. Not only does that bring lots of peace and quiet, but also lots of wildlife.
It is important to mention a few facts first. We have a phenomenal western view that often provides a breathtaking sunset, but that view comes with a steep climb on the road to the house. It is a paved, state-maintained road, but demands precaution during poor, especially winter, weather. Also, there are lots of animals in the forest around the house, including: venomous snakes, black bear, coyote, deer and many others. Please be mindful of your safety! Additionally, while we also do our best to manage the bugs in the house, this house was built in 1964 and at times bugs come with the territory. However, we have the house equipped to help you manage them if needed. Finally, the wind and the sun can be intense at times given our elevation and exposure, so please keep that in mind when outdoors.
All that being said, our family bought this cabin in 2024 with the hope of creating a comfortable hiking retreat for ourselves that we can also share with others. We have added a new gas fireplace, outdoor walking, sitting and storage spaces, and also ceiling fans and new furniture to the interior. We have strong internet service and a well-equipped kitchen and laundry space.
This home accommodates up to four people, per county regulations, but includes two bedrooms, each with a queen bed, and a loft with a large pull-out sofa. There is a full bathroom on the bottom floor and a half bath on the top floor. We also have fitness equipment and outdoor games in the car port, as well as a hammock, fire pit and picnic table on the back patio, with lots of firewood provided.
Our family welcomes you to getaway from it all at Shenandoah Hideaway!
