Wonderful getaway!

My family stayed here for 3 nights and we all had an amazing time! The home was wonderful! It was very clean and beautifully decorated. It had everything we needed and more. The area was lovely- very scenic as it was high among the mountains with the extremely large property sitting on the river. The people we met in our travels were incredibly kind, the Luray Caverns were quite fun and the nearby town was lovely. We definitely plan to come back!

Family getaway

My family and I enjoyed a 4 day getaway to this beautiful location. The walk to the river was maybe 5 minutes and the game room was a great addition for us to spend time during the later evenings! We lost power in the game room late on our last night but even at 11pm the property managers were quick to call us back and help us reset the breaker so that we can enjoy the remainder of the night. Highly recommend!

Oh Shenandoah

We had a really good time. It was perfect for the dog. The beds were not super comfortable. That was the biggest complaint but overall location was great. The river was beautiful. The amenities were fun. We had a lot of fun in the game room and even though it was July, I got in the hot tub.

Good

Good for a long weekend. Kitchen is nice and decently stocked. Lots of outdoor chairs in the shed and a beautiful area. You can't see the river from the house but its a <5 walk down to the water. Highly recommend bring water shoes as the river is rocky. As other mentioned, the beds are uncomfortable so I wouldn't want to sleep on them long term and the wifi and.cell service are very spotty

Home gives a warm and cozy feel. Definitely needs some updates and TLC. Don't expect phone service and wifi is not that great. DVD's available but player did not work so if weather permits you from going out be prepared for board games.

Close enough to Luray, but not to close

We thoroughly enjoyed this house. There was plenty of room for family and the yard had lots of space. The house was very clean and well stocked with many things that made the stay easier and enjoyable. Well thought out indoor & outdoor space. The river is further away than the pictures lead you to believe, but the river was shallow and provided a joyous experience for kids & adults. We’d rent the space again if in the area.

Not impressed

Wasn't very impressed with the place. Yard needed to be cut and weed whacked, spare toilet wasn't working lots of black mold in it Master shower leaked from under the pan. Lost power which was no fault of the property but it has a tankless water heater which requires power. So showers toilets or inoperable. It's about a 200 yds to the River from the house. Lots of trash in and around the river and along the common path provided by the hoa. Daughter and I picked up a large bag and a half of trash.

Nice Getaway on the Shenandoah River

Had a pleasant two night stay here for a group of three couples. See the highlights below. The Good Stuff: - Interior space is considerably larger than the photos make it appear - Clean! - Has all the kitchenware you could need, seriously - Coffee beans were provided, able to make fresh ground coffee that tasted good with a coffeemaker that was clean - Air conditioning worked great - The yard is huge, provides direct access to the Shenandoah River (South Fork) with a short walk - Property manager was very pleasant, promptly responded when contacted at check-in for a service call - Hot tub was spacious and relaxing - Two inner tubes were available for chilling in the river - Huge fire pit in the yard The "Room for Improvements": - Additional lighting options in the kitchen, or lower wattage bulbs in the overhead rail lights, way too bright at night - Mattresses could probably be replaced, memory foam toppers just mask the lumps and divets (note for the owner - do a split king for the main bedroom) - En suite bathroom needs repairs, shower lacked water pressure and had a significant leak spilling across the floor from under the stall, which limited six adults to one available shower instead of two - Two accessory bedrooms could benefit from rearranging the layout as well as removal of the large dressers and TVs to create more space Pro tip: check the hot tub upon arrival It's a nice spot that's quiet and not hard to get to.

Nice rileyville stay

Overall we had a very nice day. The fire pit is awesome. The yard is very beautiful and especially at night time with all the stars and the Shenandoah mountains in the background. The jacuzzi was awesome. The beds were comfortable but I'm not sure how clean the bedspreads were. I love when they leave behind seasoning and plastic wrap and things like that so that was very handy. Overall we felt that the place needed updating and work on details. The pans are so old, the walls are marlite and needs to be scrubbed or just use magic eraser, the garage with the games were great but again needs cleaning, and the ceilings and lights throughout all needed dusting.

Disappointed

The property would have been great but had a lot of issues. I contacted the owner and told her we were leaving early because we were disappointed in our stay and she didn’t even have decency to reply back. Paid way too much money to stay at a place with a bunch of broken stuff. Total rip off and very disappointed!

Really good…could have been great

We truly enjoyed our stay. The property was lovely. A few things I would recommend though. 1. Do some maintenance on the outside like the ramp to the shed and the well top. Easy cheap fixes and that was the first thing we saw. 2. The sitting in the family room is so uncomfortable. I noticed some of the other listings they have are a lot nicer, updated, and look like they are cleaner and more comfy. 3. Don’t be so stingy with supplies. 3 dish squares for a 4 night stay and a portion of a paper towel roll. 4. Needs a deep clean. The important things were clean like the kitchen and bathrooms. Overall it looked clean but the view could have been much better with clean windows and when my earphone rolled under the bed…well might want to have the cleaning crew move the beds and vacuum under there. Again overall it is a great property and perfectly fine house. We would stay again if we were in the area but if the other properties were available we would try to get those for the real couches and what looks like nicer game rooms.

Don't Bother

Don't bother renting this property. For the price and location, this was not worth it. This property is a decent double wide trailer. The photos in the listing do not make this detail obvious. The beds sag terribly. There is an obvious air quality problem that left us all itchy and uncomfortable. I stayed with a small group of friends over Memorial Day weekend. Upon check in on Friday, we noted there was no firewood as promised. We attempted to contact all available phone numbers to reach the property managers with no success. On Saturday, we went to use the hot tub and the water was lime green. The hot tub was the primary reason we chose this property, so this was a huge disappointment. We again attempted to contact every available number posted in the house, in the emailed check in instructions, and directly through VRBO. After many hours and several additonal attempts to conact, we were finally able to connect with the property manager late on Saturday. They did come out to drain and treat the hot tub, so we were able to use it on Sunday. The hall toilet struggled to flush and fill. To properly flush the toilet, we had to take the lid of the tank off and press down on the rubber flapper until the bowl filled to the correct volume. The hall shower drained terribly and left you standing in a soapy puddle. When we finally managed to contact the property management, thier response was "No one ever told us that before." They did nothing to address either of these issues.

Terrific place!

We stayed for three nights and had an excellent experience. Location was perfect - close to Luray and Skyline Drive, but far enough off the road and in the woods along the river that the peaceful seclusion was exactly what we were seeking. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked. The hot tub was most welcome after a day of hiking. We greatly enjoyed sitting around the fire pit at night. The only negative (and I hesitate to even use that word because it is such a minor thing) is that there was no lighter or matches. Luckily we found some in our car. We had brought a little firewood, enough for the first night. The woodshed was empty, and I was going to call to mention it, but when we got back from hiking the first day, we noticed that a load of wood had been delivered! They also had let us check-in early, since the place was already cleaned up and ready. Overall, we had a great time and would highly recommend this house!

Relaxation at its finest!

Went as a family of 7, 2 adults, 5 boys from ages 7-17. Love the fact you feel secluded from everyone. We spent the days at the river, canoeing, fishing, swimming for the 2 youngest in what felt like their own area of the river. River is shallow in many spots, the water is so clean you can see where you are walking. (Highly recommend water shoes for everyone). Game room was the perk for night time for the kids, and us! Wish the fuzzball table was not broken, but the kids learned how to play pool and table tennis. They provided a Bluetooth speaker, but no charging cord in site. They have anchors for the canoes in the shed, and one good raft, the others had a hole in them. They also have tiki torches to assist with the bugs. The wagon they had on site came in handy transporting our thing and firewood down to the river. We were technology free for our 4 day stay, and was well worth it! Did have some plumbing issues, first time when I called they were there within 20mins to resolve the issue. 2nd time the person was a long way away, but it was our last night so we roughed through it. Boys liked helping water the grass lol! Highly suggest you to bring your own pots and pans, the ones there are not that great of condition, also most of their utensils are metal. We used mostly throw aways so we could do less dishes. They provided laundry detergent, which helped with our group! We didn’t spend a lot of time in the house, mainly for bathroom purposes, eating, and sleeping. Everyone had so much fun we have already decided to come back next year! Oh yeah, Super Walmart 10 miles in Luray!

Little piece of Heaven

This place is beautiful! Ideal for nature lovers. Our family enjoyed watching a Doe and 2 of her fawns play in the clearing in the back yard leading to the river each morning. The walk to the river is a bit further than we anticipated but the view is worth it. I recommend canoeing up the river and floating down. It's amazing! Nights in the hot tub listening to nature made evenings so relaxing. We will definitely return!
