"Basecamp"...Cozy, studio apt. Private, quiet community. Near SNP and JMU.

Nestled in the small town of Grottoes, Va. at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains lies our adorable neorustic studio. Tucked toward the back of our [acre] property in town, Base Camp is the perfect, simple retreat after spending the day in Shenandoah National Park, sampling on local wines or beers at multiple vineyards and breweries nearby - or visiting downtown Harrisonburg for its multiple dining options, and great coffee spots. Centrally located to explore the Shenandoah Valley with all its charm and scenic beauty. Popular area for hiking, biking, and kayaking as well. Easy access to SNP/ Skyline Drive with the Appalachian Trail. Must see Grand Caverns within walking distance. Less than 10 minutes to I-81, 20 minutes to JMU. Harrisonburg, Staunton and Waynesboro within 25 minute drive. Shared outdoor shelter with fireplace and gas grill with other guests and owners on the property. The private studio cabin is equipped with all the basic amenities, including internet access and smart tv, quiet climate control, kitchenette, coffee maker, with multiple spots to curl up with a book, and more! Kick your feet up, and mellow out in this cozy cabin while listening to the birds sing or the rain on the roof - we're sure you'll get a good rest in.

Short stay
Jill greeted us when we arrived and gave us an immediate walk through of the cabin explaining everything and answered questions we had, including dinner recommendations. Everything was as portrayed. Thank you Russ and Linda

Cozy and cute
I stayed at the rental solo, but it had everything I needed when I wasn't out exploring and hiking. The rental was easy to find based on the directions given to me. Check in/check out was easy and communication with owners was clear.

Incredible place!
First off, Ron, the owner is the best. He had great communication and was incredibly helpful. He had great recommendations and made everything very simple. Perfect place for a couple. We used Base Camp as the name implies, as a base camp. We drove to Shenandoah and did a lot of hiking, went to breweries and wineries (that were suggested by Ron and they were all amazing) and the Grand Caverns (Ron also suggested those and he was right again, impressive place). After exploring and doing all the things we wanted to do for the day, we would go back to Base Camp and hang out. Sit on the porch and have wine from one of the nearby wineries or relax inside watching some tv after hiking all day. Base Camp was very clean. Ron provided everything we needed and more. Everything is a short drive away. (Be sure to visit Broad Porch Cafe in Harrisonburg, great coffee and food.) We plan on taking another trip ant some point and will be using Base Camp again.

Quiet Getaway
I stayed here with a friend as I had a race nearby. Ron was super welcoming and gave me a thorough tour of the place. He even gave me recommendations for where to eat in town. I met Debbie on the last day and she asked how my race went. The unit was cozy and welcoming. It had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The tub/shower is so cool!

Amazing place!
Deb and her daughter were super accommodating and made the check in process super easy when we arrived! The cabin itself had everything we needed, including tea, coffee and snacks. They even had a fire set up for use at night under their bungalow. I would highly recommend staying here for a hiking trip or a weekend getaway!

Great Place
My girlfriend and I stayed here the weekend she became my Fiancé. It is an incredibly cozy cottage with the perfect access to all things the area has to offer. We will certainly be looking to book this place again in the future!
