The space



Welcome to Chipmunk Hollow, a warm, thoughtfully designed cabin in a quiet wooded setting. Cosy gathering spaces and big windows make it easy to settle in, whether you're here for a weekend escape or a longer mountain retreat. However you stay, it's a place to feel at home.



🍽️ Gather

The open main level is built for time together. After a day outside, the living room is a comfortable place to land, with two plush sofas, extra seating, a 55" TV, and an electric fireplace. The kitchen is fully stocked for meals at home: stainless appliances, a deep farmhouse sink, cookware, serving essentials, and a full coffee station with a Keurig, drip maker, French press, and tea. The dining area seats six for meals, coffee, or a glass of wine.



🛏️ Rest

The home sleeps six across three bedrooms. The primary suite has a king bed, lounge chair, desk, and private ensuite bath. The second bedroom offers a queen with peaceful tree views, and the third has two twin beds plus a desk for anyone who wants a quiet place to work. A second full bathroom sits off the main hallway. Travelling with little ones? A pack 'n play, high chair, and kid-friendly extras are tucked into the bedroom closets.



🔥 Unwind

Outside is where the wooded setting shines. The back deck has a propane fire table, grill, and comfortable seating, a great spot for dinner or a quiet evening under the trees. Just beyond it, the private hot tub is the place to soak and unwind. Out front, the covered porch has rocking chairs and a bistro set for morning coffee, reading, or fresh mountain air.

The area



Chipmunk Hollow is tucked into a wooded mountain community near Linden, a mix of full-time residents, second homes, and holiday rentals in the Blue Ridge foothills. You're close to Front Royal (the northern gateway to Skyline Drive and Shenandoah National Park), the Appalachian Trail, and a growing cluster of Virginia wineries, with the quiet of the woods whenever you want it.



Getting around



A car is the easiest way to get around, since the area is rural and spread out. Skyline Drive, Front Royal, and most attractions are about 25 minutes away, with wineries and the Appalachian Trail closer.



Other things to note



📕 Welcome Guide • After booking, we'll share our detailed guide with local recommendations, favourite wineries, restaurants, hiking trails, and more, plus everything you need to know to settle into the home.



🐶 Pets • While we love furry companions, due to allergies and the layout of the home, pets aren't permitted here. If you're travelling with a dog, check our profile for our pet-friendly properties.



🚼 Family-Friendly • We love hosting families and provide a pack 'n play, high chair, and children's tableware. Need more than one of any item? Let us know with a little advance notice.



🚗 Getting Here & Winter Weather • The home is reached by paved and gravel roads, with the final quarter mile on gravel.

🧯 Safety & Cleanliness • All bedding and linens are professionally laundered between reservations. Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, fire extinguishers, and first aid kits are provided.



🦌 Wildlife & Surroundings • Surrounded by woods, you'll likely spot deer, rabbits, foxes, box turtles, groundhogs, and the occasional black bear nearby. Please don't leave food, trash, or scented items outside, as they can attract wildlife. The home is serviced by a professional pest control company, though the occasional insect may still wander in, part of a true mountain setting. We're a message away if anything seems off.



🏡 Privacy • Chipmunk Hollow sits in a quiet, wooded spot, though neighbouring homes are visible and you may occasionally notice neighbors, pets, children, or vehicles nearby. Please help preserve the calm by keeping in mind that voices, music, and noise carry, especially from the deck, hot tub, and fire table.



🧹 Landscaping & Hot Tub Services • Our landscaping or hot tub care team may visit as needed during your stay. Visits are brief, exterior only, and never require access inside; we'll give advance notice when we can.



🌹 Add-On Experiences • Make your stay extra special with romantic touches, celebration décor, fresh flowers, bubbly, and other thoughtful upgrades. These usually need advance notice, but we'll try to accommodate last-minute requests.
