Soak up peace and quiet in one of the most beautiful corners of the Shenandoah Valley. Enjoy starry skies, sunrises, and birdwatching from your private porch. 9 minutes from Eastern Mennonite University, 13 minutes from James Madison University, and 45 minutes from the entrance to Shenandoah National Park. The spring house is a "tiny house". The interior is just 20' x 20', open floor plan, with a loft that's half that size. The main floor has a bed, kitchenette, living room, and bathroom with a sliding door. In the loft (accessible by a ladder) is a full-size futon mattress on the floor. The cottage is built over a spring that has been providing the water for the Breneman house for 150 years. The spring flows beneath the spring house and on to form the neighboring pond. My family and I live in the main house, and the spring house is across the backyard from us. You have the whole cottage to yourself. Your porch faces away from our home and other than cows on the other side of the fence sometimes, is quite private. Across the fence is a 30-acre meadow down to a creek. If you'd like to walk on the farm, let us know, and we can advise on the best route depending on cows and gates. We renovated the spring house with green design principles in mind. The cottage operates entirely off of solar power in the summer! We use energy-efficient hot water, heating and air conditioning, thick insulation, reclaimed wood and fixtures, non-toxic cleaning supplies, and line-dried linens as weather permits. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Electric car charging station on site - Parking on site ### Kitchenette - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Hob - Kitchen island - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Free breakfast available ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Entertainment - Books - Music library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Outdoor furniture - Porch/lanai ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Area rugs in public areas - Hardwood flooring in public areas - No lift - Smooth flooring in public areas - Well-lit path to entrance - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Change of bedsheets (on request) - Change of towels on request - Housekeeping (on request) ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Bed sheets changed on request - Composting - Comprehensive recycling policy - Eco-friendly cleaning products used - Eco-friendly toiletries - Electric car charging station - Housekeeping (on request) - Local artist showcase - Locally-owned and organised tours and activities - No plastic coffee stirrers - No plastic drinking straws - No plastic soft drink bottles - No plastic water bottles - Reusable coffee/tea filters - Reusable cups - Reusable tableware - Towels (changed on request) ## Similar properties ![2 bedrooms, free WiFi, bed sheets, wheelchair access](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96920000/96916500/96916455/d9993d6c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### A-frame in the Brambles Cabin, Broadway, Virginia Broadway - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 9.6 Exceptional 4 reviews £108 includes taxes & fees 8 Oct - 9 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-08&endDate=2025-10-09&selected=96916455&PinnedHotelID=96916455&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior detail](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/91000000/90190000/90184200/90184126/w915h683x48y0-19927316.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Washhouse Harrisonburg - Kitchen - Washer - Air conditioning - Parking available 10 Exceptional 46 reviews £100 includes taxes & fees 6 Oct - 7 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-06&endDate=2025-10-07&selected=90184126&PinnedHotelID=90184126&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Apartment, 1 Bedroom | Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/44000000/43550000/43548500/43548458/cdea434b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Massanutten's Woodstone Meadows by Tripforth McGaheysville - Pool - Parking included - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 9.0 Wonderful 218 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-15&endDate=2025-10-16&selected=43548458&PinnedHotelID=43548458&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/104000000/103820000/103811500/103811411/71641b21.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Friendly City Stay!
