About this property
Riverfront Log Cabin In The Trees•2 Kings & Queen•Pets Free•Starlink•Fireplaces
Tucked directly along the South Fork of the Shenandoah River, The Rivers’ Loft is our little slice of peace in Luray. It’s the kind of place where mornings are slow with coffee on the deck, days are spent out on the river, and evenings end around the firepit under the stars.
Highlights:
•True riverfront setting right outside your door •Sleeps 6 with 2 king beds and 1 queen •Waterfront firepit and wraparound deck •5 kayaks, 1 canoe, and life vests included •Fully stocked kitchen for easy meals and charcoal grill •Starlink Wi-Fi and Roku smart TVs •13 minutes to Luray (Caverns, dining, Walmart, and grocery stores)
The cabin sits just above the river and has that cozy, relaxed feel we fell in love with years ago. Inside, you’ll find comfortable spaces to unwind, two gas fireplaces, and everything you need to settle in and feel at home.
The wraparound deck is one of our favorite spots. Whether it’s coffee in the morning, grilling dinner in the evening, or just sitting and listening to the river, it’s hard to beat the view.
If you love being outside, you’re in the right place. You can paddle, float, or fish right from the property, or start upriver and float your way back to the cabin. At night, the sky really shows off, no city lights, just stars.
The cabin offers a peaceful, rural setting without feeling isolated. While tucked along the river, there are neighboring cabins nearby, so it’s quiet and relaxing but not completely secluded.
While it feels tucked away, you’re still close to everything:
•13 minutes to Luray (Caverns, dining, Walmart, and grocery stores) •15 minutes to Shenandoah National Park and Skyline Drive
Pet Friendly: We’re dog people, so your four-legged family members are welcome here too. No pet fees.

The stay at Rivers Loft was just what we needed after the busy holidays! It was relaxing to be near the river. It was a great location to hike with the family and visit the caverns. Everything was perfect!
Great stay with my husband, adult son and my dog. Very clean and spacious. Well maintained. This was our second time here and would like to return in the spring when the river water level is higher.
Amazing property on best section of Shenandoah. Owner is responsive and informative. The house is awesome and beautifully decorated. Great place to spend a vacation with family. Our third year at this property and will be back again soon!
