Overlook Mountain Cabin

**BREATHTAKING** views of the Shenandoah Valley and River from 2,000 feet up on the side of the mountain! French doors in the master bedroom suite and in the living room open up to a 2-level deck, half covered & half uncovered.
Master suite includes private access to deck and hot tub and a full bathroom. Brand new patio furniture will have you relaxing in no time. And a real wood burning stove for a rustic touch. You'll feel refreshed and renewed after a few days in Overlook Cabin!
VERY unique views from the side of a mountain. The house is decorated with a mountain feel, but with all the luxuries of home.
You'll have the whole house to yourself.
Other things to note:
ROAD AND VEHICLE: While the cabin is accessible for a normal car, we HIGHLY recommend a higher clearance vehicle like an SUV. Subaru's and RAV4's are common, but many other vehicles are also on the mountain. We offer an SUV (free of charge) to guests who prefer to use it for the final mile to the cabin.

PETS: Pets are welcome (there is a pet fee). There is a pet disclaimer, so please review policies regarding pets under the House Rules.
AMENITY USE: We work hard to keep everything fully operational, but occasionally appliances & equipment such as dishwashers & hot tubs, etc can malfunction. We will service & restore these amenities as quickly as we can, but will not make any rental concession for time without these items. Please follow all guidelines & policies regarding use of amenities in order to keep them functioning properly.
BOOKING MINIMUM: 3 night minimum to book all holidays, 2 night minimum for all non-holiday dates.

Check-in and checkout was flawless. Cabin was amazing and has everything you need to be comfortable from the kitchen amenities to bathroom to laundry! Views are breath taking!! Will be staying again in the future! I will say an SUV did make it easy to get up and down the mountain, no paved roads all dirt. Great waterfall hike nearby as well!! Family enjoyed our get away. 10 out of 10 would stay here all over again!

Cleanest cabin with the best view

This cabin was perfect. Very clean, great view and organized. It was interestingly situated high up on a mountain and it was a lot of fun for us to drive the jeep (that host provided) to go up and down the hill on the rocky roads, very adventurous. I would definitely recommend it. It was just the two of us but the cabin can comfortably fit in a lot more people.

Relaxing in the mountains

What a delightful break from the city. I spent 5 nights relaxing in the hot tub, watching the stars and reading. The cabin was clean and cozy. The staff on the mountain were very helpful and kind. I can't wait to come back and visit again.

View doesn't disappoint

Our weekend was perfect! We loved the view and the hike to the waterfall was so peaceful (smaller than anticipated when we got there, but still beautiful). The house was decorated to be so homey and comfortable with lots of games to choose from when we wanted a break from the TV. We were snowed in but felt so comfortable the whole weekend! It lives up to the hype!

Wonderful cabin for the holiday! Spectacular views and gorgeous sunsets. The waterfall walk was great and we saw wild turkeys on the trail. The road is a challenge, but what a beautiful destination!

A great property in a fantastic location. Getting up the hill was slightly tricky but that was communicated well in advance and appreciated. The cabin was awesome. The wood stove was lovely, the views were amazing, and the hot tub was a great amenity.

Wonderful views, wonderful stay.

This was our second time staying at this particular cabin and it was wonderful. Amazing views, hot tub on the deck overlooking the mountain. The deck also has some roof cover so we could enjoy sitting out and listening to the rain. Super comfy bed and great amenities like streaming tv services and a well designed kitchen. Thank you for having such a beautiful retreat cabin!!

Absolutely Gorgeous!

We used this magnificent cabin for a home base while visiting state parks in the area. The problem was the cabin is so wonderful that we didn’t want to leave! It is a perfect get away with breathtaking views. I cannot say enough good about the cabin and the wonderful owners. We will definitely be back and we will schedule nothing else but hanging out at the cabin.

The Overlook Cabin

We enjoyed the breathtaking views from the porch and the seclusion. Great cabin for couples who like to hike, especially if you have a dog. The national park is 30 minutes from the most northern entrance and second most northern entrance. Brain was a great host, gave us lots of helpful information on what to do/where to eat in the area. He is also very quick with responses if you need anything! Overall a great stay and can't wait to come back!

Choose your own adventure

The Overlook Cabin is a perfect home base for exploring Shenandoah National Park and the Shenandoah Valley. It's a short drive to Skyline Drive, Luray or Front Royal and there are plenty of things to do. In the evening we enjoyed coming home before sunset so we could watch it from the deck and then relax in the hot tub. This cabin is clean, comfortable and well stocked with many thoughtful touches. We would gladly stay again!

About our stay

Fire pit was not accessible. We could not go to the festival on Saturday because of the intermittent rain and fear we would not make it back up to our cabin on the very hard to travel Road. We also had to re-wash all of the dishes, as there was dried food on each of the plates.
