The cottage was recently remodeled, providing modern comforts while maintaining an atmosphere of peaceful country refuge. It sits atop a hill at the end of a gravel road and is surrounded by farmland.
Inside, on the main floor, you’ll find the kitchen, living room, dining room, and the first of three bedrooms.The living room is furnished with a couch (including a pull-out bed) and two fun spinning chairs, perfect for gathering or watching a movie. The dining room is located adjacent to the living room and is furnished with a six-seat dining table.
Luray and the surrounding area offer several different dining options, but sometimes you want to enjoy a home-cooked meal while taking in your surroundings. That's why our kitchen is fully stocked with all the essentials you'll need to cook you and your family a nice dinner.
On the first floor we also have a full bath with tub, ideal for those staying in Bedroom 1. This bedroom includes a large closet and is furnished with a queen bed and sitting chair.
Upstairs you’ll find Bedrooms 2 and 3, along with the second full bathroom, which includes a stand-up shower. Bedroom 2 is the largest of the three bedrooms and is equipped with a king-sized bed, dresser, and corner sitting area. This bedroom also includes a desk and chair, making an ideal work space if needed. Look up from your computer and catch a glimpse of the Blue Ridge Mountains out the window.
Bedroom 3 is located across the hall from Bedroom 2 and is furnished with two twin beds.
Sometimes your party needs to spread out. The cottage’s furnished basement includes another sitting area and TV, as well as a game room. The washer and dryer are also located in the basement and available for your use.
The property’s outside offers several activities, as well. Feel free to lounge on the hammock or relax on one of the balcony rocking chairs, taking in the view of the Ida Valley. (Pro tip: this west-facing balcony is the perfect spot for watching the sun set!) At night, gather around the fire pit for s’mores and conversation.
While the home is equipped to host 8 people, we think the perfect group size is 5-6. We're happy to host all 8, but keep in mind it will be a little cozier.
We are pet-friendly and happy to welcome you and up to *two* furry friends but do require an additional fee of $50. **Please read more about pet requirements in our House Rules.**
Guests have access to the entire home and property, except for the exterior shed. Feel free to explore the grounds during your stay.
I will not be available in person during your stay, but you can reach out to me through the Airbnb platform at any time.
