Charming 1800s Farmhouse on 47 Acres — Riverfront w/Views, Hot Tub, Pet-Friendly

Escape to the peace and quiet of the Shenandoah Valley at this beautifully preserved 1800s farmhouse, tucked away on over 47 acres at the end of a quiet, dead-end road. With stunning views of rolling fields and the Shenandoah River, this is the perfect country retreat — for you and your pups!
Step back in time with original hardwood floors, exposed stone fireplaces, and all the historic details that make this home one of a kind. Spacious and welcoming, this farmhouse offers all the charm of a simpler era, while giving you plenty of room to relax, unwind, and reconnect with nature.

Slip into the private hot tub under the stars — the perfect way to unwind after a day of hiking, fishing, or exploring the area.
And for your four-legged friends? They'll love this special retreat! With plenty of space to run, play, and explore, dogs with good recall can enjoy countless hours of freedom — no city traffic or tight spaces here, just wide open fields and fresh mountain air.
Though you’ll feel miles away from it all, you’re only 15 minutes from downtown Luray, where you can explore charming shops, restaurants, and the famous Luray Caverns. The best part? You get to return to the quiet and calm of your own private escape.

Amazing location and sweet house!
Our family of four enjoyed a last minute weekend here. The property is in the most amazing location - just secluded enough. The check in process and everything about our stay was seamless. We’d love to come again.

Amazing property
This is our 2nd time here and we plan on coming back. The property is secluded but close to all the area attractions and places to eat. The kids had a blast running around all the open space and playing in the river. The cool nights were perfect for relaxing in the hot tub and looking at the night sky. Would recommend to anyone. The house was clean and correspondence with the owners was easy and timely

Great early fall visit with kids and dog
The owner was kind and helpful. We enjoyed the quiet farmhouse with our children and dog. We didn’t have a chance to use hot tub/firepit but we look forward to the next time. The screened porch was our favorite spot!

Solitude
This has an old farmhouse vibe. We really enjoyed our stay. The pictures in the listing are accurate. Easy walk to the Shenandoah River. The farmhouse is at the end of a gravel road and very secluded. Just what we were looking for. We watched about 20 wild turkeys hunting for food in the morning and saw many deer at all times of the day.

We had a very peaceful getaway! The proximity to the park is perfect if you’re looking to go for some hikes. Otherwise, you’re right on the river with some great fishing. We had such a wonderful time.

Best of the Shenandoah River and Mountains.
Had another wonderful stay at the farmhouse. You can't beat the scenery, sunsets over the Shenandoah River with the mountains in the backdrop. You can canoe, fish, swim, hike right on the property. Lots beautiful trees and wildlife. Thank you Nina for being a great host and sharing this with our family!

The views
Location is perfect as we were staying to visit Luray caverns. House was bigger than expected and rooms were a decent size. Beds were also very comfortable. The walk to the river was easy and beautiful (we drove to the chairs). Being slightly ocd the inside of the house could use a deep cleaning, lots of dust! But overall we had the best time.and would stay here again!

We stayed here over the 4th of July and had a wonderful time! The property is very private and quiet. It was nice getting away from the hustle and bustle and enjoying the beautiful scenery. This is a wonderful place to go to get away from it all!
