Nestled among the trees overlooking the picturesque Shenandoah River and bordered by the serene G.W. National Forest, this retreat is perfect for those looking to unwind and reconnect with nature. Previously recognized in Travel & Leisure magazine as one of Airbnb's Most Wish-listed Holiday Stays, the cabin features a screened-in porch, ideal for sipping morning coffee and a wraparound deck perfect to enjoy dinner while watching amazing sunsets. As evening falls, cozy up by the wood fireplace or gather around the outdoor fire pit. End the day with stargazing while soaking in the relaxing hot tub. The cabin boasts ample opportunities for exploration and outdoor fun. Hikers can enjoy the private access trail that climbs the mountain and intersects with the Massanutten Circuit Trail. Located on one of the Seven Bends of the Shenandoah River (a local landmark), the cabin also provides access to the river. Whether you're seeking a romantic getaway or a family retreat, the cabin is an ideal location to create lasting memories. Although just listed on this platform, The Bear Den has a 5-year established rental history with glowing reviews on a competing platform. Please read the following prior to booking: DRIVEWAY. Due to the steepness of the driveway, a vehicle with AWD/4WD vehicle is REQUIRED at ALL times, regardless of the time of year. We cannot stress this enough! Some guests say that it is the steepest driveway they have ever traveled...it is no joke!! In addition, the bottom of the driveway is privately owned so parking and walking is not an option. INCLEMENT WEATHER. Safety is a huge priority for us! If during the winter there is ice/snow, the driveway could potentially be too dangerous to travel. If the driveway is unsafe to travel, we will inform guests as soon as possible and discuss their options. LOW WATER BRIDGE. In order to access the cabin, guests will need to cross the Shenandoah River by means of a low water bridge. Occasionally, flooding can occur, and guests will not be able to enter or exit the property during that time. We will notify guests if that is a possibility and accommodate accordingly. INSECTS. Since the cabin is surrounded by nature and fairly close to a river, insects can be plentiful. We try to provide a variety of deterrents such as bug spray and citronella candles to help minimize them from joining your party. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the cabin: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace ### Entertainment - DVD player - Games - Smart TV - Video games ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Patio ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming cats and dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - 9 steps to reach entrance - Area rugs in public areas - Gravel flooring in public areas - Hardwood flooring in public areas - No lift - Tile flooring in public areas - Designated smoking areas - Note from host: Please dispose of cigarette butts properly. ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In the mountains - Near a hospital - On a river ### Things to do - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Unit size: 750 square feet ## Similar properties ![Outdoor spa tub](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/84000000/83070000/83062300/83062247/04f9d551.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Shenandoah river front cabin, hot tub, fireplace, cabin, screened in porches.
