Find your serenity at this mountain cottage with river access.

Located in the small town of Bergton, 30-miles west of Harrisonburg, VA, our cottage sits atop a bluff overlooking 60 acres of peaceful pastures where you'll enjoy direct access to the German River.

Relax on the front porch rockers with a cold drink to enjoy the sunset or hike (moderate hike) down to the German River to search for blue holes for a refreshing swim or bring your fly rods for a chance at a native Brook Trout. (Subject to seasonal water levels that can vary widely. Cannot guarantee that water will be at ideal flow levels during your stay.) The German River is the principal tributary of the North Fork of the Shenandoah River, thus the water is clear. The river is an amazing hike if the water levels are lower. You will find everything from Minnows to Eagles to Crawdads.

At night, warm up by the gas fireplace in front of the cottage. Look up and see the Milky Way and the occasional shooting star. You are way out in the country and there are no other lights, so the stargazing on clear nights is exceptional!

Turn the Bose speaker up to full volume without worrying about neighbors! Enjoy your private mountain retreat with loved ones and friends.
