Great home very comfortable with beautiful Mountain View’s. The beds were comfortable and host provided clean fluffy white towels. Great for kids as there were lots of board games and books.

Super clean beautiful cabin. Perfect place to stay near the park. Grocery store 14 minutes away. The river has a ton of fish. Great fishing. Bonnie the hostess is sweet and extremely responsive, a really great lady. Thank you for sharing your families cabin. There are too many bear decorations inside to count! So fun. Wish we could have stayed longer. Its on our list for a return visit.

The cabin was a great get away for 5 outdoorsy guys celebrating a bachelor’s weekend. Property owner had nice mowed pathway to easily gain access to the river to fish. Also, a nice spot on the river bank to catfish with already installed rod holders. The cabin was private with no disturbance from neighbors. Only had vehicle traffic on the backroad. The cabin came with two grills and charcoal and propane, but both need grate replacement. However, with aluminum foil we made it work. Then inside of the cabin was very nice and organized. I would definitely go back to this cabin

I stayed at this property with my family, including four children two of whom are babies. The place wasn’t cleaned properly before our arrival. The floors were visibly dirty, and we even found personal items left behind by previous guests, which made us question the hygiene standards right away, including popcorn in the sofa. One of the beds was covered in some kind of sticky residue, which was disgusting. The drywall wasn’t finished and the property was infested with invasive spotted lanternflies. They were everywhere on the porch and kept finding their way inside the house, creating a constant battle to keep them out. During our stay, we lost both power and water, which was incredibly inconvenient with babies in tow who need reliable access to basic essentials. I ended up being late to my best friend’s wedding, and couldn’t be a bridesmaid because of this. Despite this major disruption, we weren’t offered a partial refund. The neighbors were blasting music every single night, until 3 AM. This made it impossible to get a good night’s sleep. One of the checkout requirements was to clean up the property ourselves, which we did thoroughly. But why on earth were we charged a cleaning fee when the place wasn’t even clean when we got there? It seems hypocritical and unfair.
Papa Bear invites you to come relax in this beautiful riverfront log cabin, with all the right amenities and a view second to none. Located near the beautiful Skyline Drive and Ski Slopes. Explore the famous Luray Caverns or take a short drive to the home of Thomas Jefferson. Maybe just relax, or fish or read a good book. This cabin will certainly create memories for a lifetime.
