About this property

Heaven On Earth near The Shenandoah River

  • Relax and unwind at our newly renovated cabin and enjoy all the comforts of home while surrounded by the beauty of the Shenandoah River and mountains. While it is a perfect hideaway for two, it can sleep up to seven with its beautifully decorated three bedrooms.



    Each bedroom, as well as the Living Room and the Loft, is equipped with a smart TV. The cabin sits on 1.5 acres of flat land with river access. After a day on the River or hiking through the nearby GW National Forest, relax in the 6-person hot tub under the stars or play pool and board games in the spacious game room, or simply sit in front of a roaring fire. Experience for yourself why we call our cabin "Heaven on Earth". Enjoy reliable internet access with the newly installed Starlink!

Cabin was in a wonderful location! We enjoyed the tranquility and peace. I loved the DVD collection although I couldn't find a DVD player that worked LOL Plenty of firewood for beautiful bonfires! The hot tub needs a lift assist for the cover. Could only use half of the hot tub. Would come back again for sure!!

This was a perfect family mini vacation.

We brought the family for a long weekend and it was perfect. Not far from any of the must see attractions, this lovely cabin has all the comforts needed after enjoying the surroundings. The hot tub was wonderful and the fire pit was perfect for family time to finish the evening. Thank you!

Splendid cabin!

The cabin was very nice and clean, everything was very comfortable and homey feeling. The binder was very helpful to answer any questions we had, although we had a bit of trouble with the hot tub. The area of luray was wonderful and appreciated all the recommended things to do!!

Comfortable and clean lodgings

This was a great place to meet up with two other people. There is a bedroom on each floor and a bathroom on two of the floors. The game room is packed, and there is a library of books and DVDs. We enjoyed ourselves and were very comfortable hanging out in the living room, and on the deck.

Weekend getaway

Friends gathered for a weekend retreat to unplug. Heaven on Earth presents much better live than in pictures. Excellent use of space and the three bedrooms all spacious and comfortable. Books/games were a plus. DVD library pretty good 👍. All of us had fairly decent cell signal At&t Verizon Tmobile Dog friendly and the dog enjoyed the grounds as well. Hot tub was clean and comfortable. Very easy stay, location was great with good amount of privacy. Will definitely place on my favorites list. Hope to have the opportunity to Stay here again!

Awesome

My family's stay at the cabin was very enjoyable. Beautiful big rooms, clean and stocked with everything we needed. Outside on the deck was a hot tub so realaxing. We cooked on the grill and sat under the umbrella at the table. We had a fire in the fire pit every night and management supplied us with lots of wood. You can walk to the river with your morning coffee and a fishing pole. The mountains took my breath away. It's truly God's country and the cabin is a little Heaven on Earth.

Perfect little getaway

This was a great cabin just a short drive from Luray. We were looking for somewhere to get away with our older teens, and this cabin hit the spot with its hot tub, pool table and air hockey. The horseshoe pit was also enjoyed. Each person having their own room was a big plus as well, as they usually end up sharing a room when we go away. Having two full bathrooms was great and access to the washer dryer was appreciated (especially the dryer so we could dry swimwear). We really loved the beautiful view of the river from the deck and took advantage of the grill. Having access to walk along the river was awesome. The biggest thing I appreciated was that the price included 4 people before charging for extra!! A lot of the cabins I looked at charged extra past two people. Great cabin, great location. Highly recommend.

Great Getaway

We rented this place for Christmas. We arrived to a charminly deorated Christmas house. It was great to walk in to a perfectly cleaned cabin that was aglow with a christmas tree lights and softly lit lamps. We did have a couple of hickups, the hot tub was broke. We called the property manage who sent someone over immediatly. When they determined they couldn't fix it, they gave us access to the cabin next door and that cabin's hot tub. Worked out great. The fireplaces were a bit tricky as well. Once again, a simple call and all turned out well. When we ran out of fire wood, again a simple call and we had wood delivered. Check out and in was super easy. PM was very supportive. We had a great family time

Lovely cottage

The place is lovely, with a big yard for the kids to run/play. The kitchen had everything we needed for a 4days stay. There was some nice personal touch throughout the house. Easy check-in process, easy to find. It was 15min drive to town/Luray Caverns so you get the peace/quiet at night. The firepit was great as well! The only unfortunate thing is that we got charge for 2 children under 2yo that slept in their park n play (not even using bed linens) AND for a 2 months as that was, with parents, above 4 people. It does seem ridiculous to us to be charged extra per day, especially for the infant (didnt even use a towel!). That was 3 extra charge for our little ones, while the cottage had plenny of space. We didnt use the 3rd bedroom as it was in tbe basement and the stair were too scary for our little ones.

Hornets

We arrived to the location on friday night, everything was great, grilled some steaks (grille was a bit dirty, we used a skillet we brought on the grille). Overall, not a bad first night. Saturday morning, we were hanging out when we noticed about 5 hornets on the windows (interior) of the cabin. We called, a person came out and disposed of those hornets, but due to uncertainty if there could be more, we decided to leave. We had an individual with us that is allergic, and we didn't want to risk anything. Requested a refund for the 2 nights we wouldn't be staying due to the concern regarding the hornets, and we were told that it would not be refunded due to it not being the cabin's fault that the hornets were in the house. I feel that's an issue, but I'm also just glad we left without our friend potentially getting stung/suffering an allergic reaction. We thought it was a nice cabin, good area, but definitely disappointed with the dirty grille, the lukewarm hot tub, and the hornets. Lastly, there was a plethora of cigarette butts all around the property. That could have been from people that had previously stayed.

First of all, this is the first Vrbo rental in which we have stayed, where the hosts outfitted the cabin so completely with practically everything we would need. The cabin was clean and located in an area where the neighbors were far enough away to ensure that we stayed out of each other's hair. The pool table and fussball table in the basement provided adequate entertainment for those day when it rained too much to enjoy going outside. The fire pit, the fireplace, and the well-stocked wood shed made the nights cozy, while the fully-equipped kitchen made mealtime a pleasure. When the weather was clear, we enjoyed playing with our dog on the very large back yard. If I had to list a negative about the property, it would be that the access to the river is a bit underwhelming. You can access the river and site beside it in the two lawn chairs that are provided, but the narrow corridor to the river is bordered by private property. However, that is nitpicking, and it did not negatively affect our enjoyment of the weekend spent there.I highly recommend the rental property, and it is definitely at the top of our list, when we decide to vacation in the Shenandoah again.
