Wonderful home in a great community
Our family of four had an absolutely wonderful stay at Cottage by the Caverns. Excellent communication from owners. Home was perfect size for us and appointed with everything we needed for our 5-day stay. Less than a mile from downtown Luray, which is lovely small town with several great eating spots and shops... and also easy access to several points along the Skyline. We hope to return and would absolutely stay here again!

What a Lovely Home and Location
This home is just lovely and is in a great location. Neighbors are friendly and I had to call AAA for a flat tire and the local tow truck driver was an earth angel. Can't wait to stay here again!

hiking in shenandoah
This is close to the thornton gap entrance. With the shades open, it's a very sunny house. The house is right in the town of Luray, so you're close to your neighbors, but they're quiet. If possible, the owners should put a curtain in front of the front glass door.

Great Holiday Getaway
We had an amazing stay at this very well decorated 3-bdrm house. The home was as advertised and was everything we needed for a relaxing stay. My family and I rented this property to experience the winter holiday away from our home. We wanted to enjoy something different, something cozy enough that will allow us to focus on family, and that's exactly what this cottage did for us.The kitchen was fully stocked with all the utensils, plates, bowls, cups, and mugs we needed. Plus, there were a few pots and pans we used to cook nightly dinners through the week.The bedrooms were comfortable with memory foam mattresses, and each room had its own charm. The first two bedrooms share a full hallway bathroom, while the master suite has it's own full bathroom. In the master bathroom is a washer/dryer combo for your use. **Notes: The only way to the backyard is through the master bedroom. Heating is uneven throughout the house. It's warmer in the master bedroom than the rest of the home.**The location is choice as it’s just a short drive to Luray Caverns, Skyline Drive, and the adventurous, winding VA State Route 211. We really enjoyed the peaceful outdoor space with the fire pit, eating chili around the fire.The host was incredibly responsive and thoughtful, providing us with all the info we needed and even recommending local spots to check out. Highly recommend this property for anyone looking to explore the Shenandoah Valley or just enjoy a peaceful retreat.

Great weekend stay at the Cottage! The cottage is in a great location, easily walkable to shops and restaurants. Also, in close proximity to lots of great hikes. All of the decor is updated and stylish, and accounts for everything you would need to have a cozy weekend with friends or family.

Lovely property that we enjoyed!!
We visited Luray, the Caverns, and Shenandoah NP. Property is really nice, clean, comfortable, and located near grocery stores and restaurants. We felt completely safe. Beautiful, private back yard with seating and fire pit. It had everything we needed. Enjoyed the AC heating system. Great TV in family room. Quiet at night. Previous renters haven’t been kind to some of the walls in the property. Host was very nice and accommodating.

Great family stay
We had a lovely stay in Tyler's home. It was perfect for my husband and I and our two adult children. It was conveniently located to Luray Caverns and Shenandoah Park, as well as grocery stores and restaurants. I especially liked the updated finishes, large kitchen, washer and dryer and the fenced back yard with fire pit and charcoal grill. Tyler was very quick to respond to any questions I had. I would definitely stay again. Minor gripe would be the back bedroom lacked any storage for clothing and had a tiny bedside table. Also a couple more bath towels would've been great!

Perfect for a weekend away
This was the perfect size for our family and grandparents for a weekend stay. The house looks like it does in the photos, it was very clean. The location was right near the caverns and Jellystone which was exactly what we needed! Also a great playground nearby with a beautiful view of the mountains. Tyler was easy to connect with. We had a snafu with check-in/the smart lock didn't like us but he was on it. It really was a great location for a young family. The only thing I would share is that there are a few stairs leading up to the house from the gravel driveway (pictured, so I knew about it before booking) There are none inside which is great. Just in case you or someone you love cannot use steps or has difficulty. It was a bit challenging for my older parents because they have mobility issues. Overall, it was a lovely weekend celebrating our son's birthday and Tyler was a very responsive host.

This house had everything we needed for a quick getaway at Shenandoah NP. Nicely furnished, comfy beds, great backyard and front porch, quiet neighborhood. Ours was a small group, but this place would be great for up to three couples.

Perfect for us!
We drove to Luray from NC to do some touring of the area, and Cottage by the Caverns was wonderful! The house was the perfect size, decorated beautifully, and we absolutely loved the fire pit area! The location was perfect to hop over to the caverns, and the neighborhood itself was quiet, although the traffic got a bit noisy, at times. I would suggest bringing a noise machine, or playing fan sounds on your phone! Other than that, the house was exactly what we needed, and the communication with the owners was top notch! Tyler and Stephanie, thank you so much for everything! We enjoyed our stay so much!!!
