We hiked in the Shenandoah National Park, played board games in quiet of our cabin, cooked pancakes and enjoyed shopping nearby. Wish we could've stayed longer. ##### Sarah K.

We enjoyed our time at the Shenandoah Sanctuary. We wanted to be away from the hustle and bustle and this was the perfect place. Great place to relax, read a book, sit around the fire, enjoy stargazing and spend time with family and friends. A short 30 minute trip to Shenandoah NP and 45 min to Charlottesville. Would definitely recommend staying here! ##### Jared A.

Communications were great, and they made sure we knew what we needed for the stay. The place was clean and had plenty of linens and towels for our use. I do think that if you have a small car you will have trouble getting in to the site, especially if there's bad weather. I needed to put my truck into 4-Wheel drive a couple of times. ##### Linda N.

Check-in and check-out were very easy, and the host was very helpful in working though a bit of confusion we had around the wi-fi on our first day. The cabin itself is well equipped and comfortable, and the location is peaceful with only one very quiet neighbor in sight. The outdoor spaces are also very enjoyable, and the location is perfect being a short drive from all the needed amenities and also from the park entry gate. Best of all, we were able to bring our dogs, and they felt immediately at home there. Definately a 5 star stay. ##### Shawn B.

Host was gracious and communicated well. Place was clean and well stocked. The only con was that the internet was very patchy, but then the entire Shenandoah didn’t really have internet access, so may be common for that area. ##### Yuliya B.

It’s absolutely a stunning, picturesque location and the perfect place to unwind and get away from it all. My family from the UK had the best time hanging out at the cabin. We were close to fishing, hiking and skyline drive so managed to get lots done in a short amount of time. Walmart was only 20mins-ish away so we could stock up on supplies if needed. The hosts thought of absolutely everything you could need and more. I was really impressed with the cabin as a whole. We made s’mores, stargazed and enjoyed the quiet location. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d2ad797e-2f69-4c32-92b2-11ee92b62abc-1758110053219.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1e661bec-6ff0-4435-a047-825281daafa3-1758110051426.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c78a0e74-0e5d-4cb4-a665-d4d2f091449a-1758110059791.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9e886241-caf7-435a-8639-55816aece656-1758110058615.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Levi F.

The house is in an inviting wooded area, pretty secluded, but within half an hour we were in the park. We were able to watch the sunset at Point Overlook, then come back and roast marshmallows, watch fireflies (nonexistent where we live), and see the stars. The kitchen was extremely well equipped, which we appreciate, as we enjoy being able to cook a bit and prepare lunches. Highly recommend! ##### Alyssa K.
