Secluded Cottage on 10 Acres. Close to Shen. Natl. Park and Luray Caverns

Old Mine Cottage is outfitted with quite a few amenities that will make your stay very enjoyable! A 5 person hot tub is always a hit with younger and older guests alike, and for a perfectly relaxing experience, the outdoor fire pit is a great place to unwind after a day of sightseeing, golfing, or however you choose to spend your time in Luray! The kitchen is beautifully designed and comes complete with every appliance needed, including a dishwasher. There is a washer and dryer on site as well for those who wish to use them. Every few hours the train comes through, and the property is just the right distance from the tracks for it to be charming. There is a brand new TV in the living room, with a DirecTV package, and a DVD player. The inside of the cottage has a very rustic feel to it. Everything is completely new, but was carefully crafted to feel very comfortable and unique. The property sits at a convenient location to get to, with only a 10 minute drive to nearly everything you could need to do.

Perfect Getaway Location
The cottage was an ideal basecamp for exploring Luray and the Shenandoah Valley parks. Close enough to get to stores and restaurants but still feels away from anyone else. I can't recommend this house enough - will be looking for an opportunity to return.

Another amazing stay!
This property is well worth the stay. My family and I stayed twice in 2023. We will be straying at least two more times in 2024! It is well worth the money.

Great for the family
Went to stay for Thanksgiving with my wife and two kids (5&3). Large lot to play on, great fire pit with supplied wood, very clean hot tub for the adults. 10 minutes from the Caverns and downtown. Can't wait to go again.

We stayed here and did a bike trip to wineries one day and a big hike the next day. Awesome to let the dog chase bunnies and beautiful sunset from the hot tub. House looks nicer in person than pics and very clean.

Beautiful Views, Awesome Hot Tub
We had a great long weekend at the property. Between the views, hot tub and fire pit, we left with our hearts full and souls renewed. The fur baby loved all the new smells and land to run, play and roll. Cant wait to come back and test out the claw foot tub.

Great, secluded spot!
We had a great relaxing time. The house is secluded and quiet but not far from Luray attractions. Awesome night sky viewing, hot tub, marshmallows over the fire, and acres of land for our dog to explore! We couldn't have asked for more. Great place to get away from it all

Weekend getaway
Completely enjoyed the secluded location with the mountain views and an occasional freight train rolling by. The house was everything we needed, quiet, comfortable and well equipped. If you enjoy historic sites, this place is close to many for all ages to enjoy. Be sure to try the BBQ just up the road from the Luray Caverns, perfect for delicious lunch or diner. This was our second time renting this property and we plan on returning in the future.

Nice place to come home to
We hiked every day at Shenandoah National Park and returned exhausted to recover on the front porch of the cottage. This place was very welcoming and comfortable with plenty of space for our dachshund to run. We had everything we needed to relax and gear up for the next day. Most importantly, the host was very responsive to our questions. I would recommend this rental for solitude and peace.

Weekend getaway
The cottage was great, easy to get to and just a short drive to Luray. Messaged the host and was provided the entry code for the front door so we were able to get in upon arrival. Everything was as described, private setting with just a few other houses back the lane the behind the cottage. The cottage was clean and well kept and the hot tub very relaxing. Would recommend this place.

Blissful stay
I had the most blissful, relaxing stay. The house is charming, comfortable, and well taken care of. The pictures on the website don't do it justice. My pups loved the wide open yard and we all enjoyed the front porch. It would have been perfect if the front porch had rockers or a porch swing, but it was great anyway. We used the firepit and hot tub each night. It was a short drive to Luray, but the quietness that we experienced at this home was amazing. There were many moments when the only sound was the wild turkey gobbles or the whippoorwill singing. The nearby train crossing added to the experience and I loved it all. I am an airplane geek, and this home was on the pathway to Dulles or Reagan International. I spent hours each night watching the planes turn on their landing lights as they cleared the mountain range. I know, I'm a nerd, but it was wonderful. I hope to make this a yearly spring getaway.

Luray Cottage
We loved the little cottage and it was what we expected from the listing. The reason I did not give a 5 star review is because I had to call VRBO multiple times the day of check in because the property manager never responded to my request for check in information. Only received the code about 4 hours before check in which left me a bit panicked that day as to whether we had a place to stay or not. The number the property manager has on VRBO is no longer his phone number and hasn’t been for awhile. Also there was a bit of a fly, wasp and bug problem in and around the house.
