Summary: Absolutely loved our stay at this charming cottage on the Shenandoah River! The location is unbeatable — peaceful, scenic, and just steps from the water. We spent our days kayaking along the river and exploring the nearby hiking trails, which offered breathtaking views and a perfect mix of challenge and beauty. The cottage itself was cozy, spotless, and well-stocked with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. If you’re looking for a serene retreat with top-notch outdoor adventures, this is the place! Can't wait to come back.

Summary: Overall this was a great place for a getaway with my husband! The cottage is very well done. It's incredibly clean, well stocked, and the furnishings and supplies are quite nice. The view is absolutely gorgeous and very peaceful. The "downsides" were that a bridge is under construction until late 2025 in the area so it takes longer to get to any stores. The last 5 minutes to the property are complete gravel roads and the very last part is a little steep. It's secluded but there is a house next door. It's not close but you can see it. The outdoor cushions on the patio needed to be replaced; we just put towels over them to sit. The grass needed to be cut. And there were a tremendous number of stink bugs. Given the location being in nature, not sure what could be done about those but there were a lot. It may have just been the season, we were there in late September.

Summary: We had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend stay at the Overlook Cottage!!!! It is such a relaxing and beautiful location. The cottage is so clean and well furnished, you just need to stock up on groceries before you get there so you don't have to leave!!!! We will definitely be back and recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing place to unwind. :)

Summary: Our family went up for a weekend getaway to visit our daughter at Shenandoah University. The property was beautiful and the house was perfect for us. We enjoyed the hot tub, playing cards and talking by the fireplace. Thank you for having us we had a wonderful time!

Summary: We found the Overlook when seeking a pet-friendly, well-appointed property to spend the week between Christmas and New Years with our family. With plans for baking, cooking, board games and relaxation this house was absolutely perfect. The kitchen has everything! We all enjoyed the home, vista and property. Every kind of seating you can imagine outside has been thought of--covered porch, open air terrace, expansive deck and rockers on the front porch. The outdoor hot-tub was new, clean, perfect for 3 at a time. We used it every day! When there was an issue with it the property manager responded immediately and it was fixed. We have stayed in a lot of VRBO properties and this by far was the best: Wonderful family who own and manage the property. Truly wanted to make sure we had the best possible experience. The dishwasher stopped working on New Years Eve and before we knew it the owner and his son came and installed a new one so we could keep cooking. WOW! The view of the Shenandoah in the winter was stunning. Light pours in through the abundant windows. We enjoyed two seating areas (upstairs and down) and the gas fireplace that came on with the touch of a switch. We did use the outside firepit and would have used the propane fire pit (it worked) if we hadn't been so cozy inside. The upstairs 36 ft deck is incredible. Beautiful, serene meadow to walk in and only 10 to 15 mins from stores, restaurants and starbucks. 5 stars all the way for a winter getaway.

Summary: Beautiful property! Most responsive host I ever dealt with. Setting is private, quiet and right on the river with only a very short walk to the dock. Stunning sunsets. Everything worked properly. Very comfortable home. We’d love to visit again!

Summary: The house is exactly as listed, beautiful, private, clean and spacious with all the amenities you could want, including kayaks for a relaxing paddle. Grace the property manager was fantastic and responded quickly and concisely to all of our requests and inquiries. If you’re looking for comfort and adventure in the Shenandoah region, we highly recommend the Overlook Cottage. Get your groceries and supplies first , and then chill!

Summary: This is a real Get Away From It All! It’s as beautiful as the photos show. Grace & Frank are responsive & accommodating. The house has everything you’ll need & the ease of check-in & out makes this like staying in a hotel but better. Ask them about their other properties, which are no less fantastic. Want to head to the river and the mountains? STAY HERE!!
