Another great stay in the Shenandoah!
This was our second stay at Gary's house. Everything was perfect and this trip was even better than last year's. Great house, fire pit and grill - and easy proximity to White Oak Canyon and Old Rag. We'll be back next year!

Wonderful House in a Beautiful Area
The house was comfortable and felt remote and private yet close to many options to eat and activities. We loved it and our dog loved the yard. Would totally stay again if visiting Shenandoah again.

More private than I thought it was going to be
I couldn't tell from the photos how close the house is to the road, and I was concerned that cars might make noise or runover the dog. The house is tucked back from the road on a rise over a small field, surrounded by trees on three sides. The road was not problem at all. You couldn't see it or hear it. The fire pit has nice Adirondack chairs around it.

Great Stay
We had a wonderful time staying in the cabin, It is well off the road and private with lots of nice outside space. Just a three minute drive from the White Oak Canyon trailhead. The kitchen is well-stocked with all you could need to cook your means and the living room well-furnished for comfy evenings around the fire.

Fall weekend away
Had a wonderful stay. Spent loads of time around the fireplace, played loads of games and hiked Shenandoah. Loved the configuration of the house, the kitchen was well stocked with dishes, cookware, spices and aluminum foil which is rare for a rare but greatly appreciated!
