”It is the marriage of the soul with Nature that makes the intellect fruitful, and gives birth to imagination.” Henry David Thoreau

Perfect 40th Anniversary!
Walden was the perfect choice to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. My husband and I loved the peaceful environment, including the walk to the river and being greeted by deer each day. Hiking, Luray Caverns, and Skyline Drive were just a short drive from the cabin. There was plenty of firewood and the hot tub was clean and ready to go. This place has it all!

Nice, clean and newer cabin. Not easy to find at night. Everything is fairly new and working well. Many deer to see in the mornings and evenings. We had no issues at all.

Blissfully tranquil
This well-appointed cabin sits on a quiet spot right next to the Shenandoah River. We had planned to go hiking in the National Park but it was so nice at the cabin we never left except one time to get tasty tacos in Luray. We are planning a return!

Peaceful Retreat!
This is simply a lovely cabin, very comfortable with every little detail in place to make your stay enjoyable and easy. The windows and view are peaceful. My little dog and I enjoyed the quiet and sitting on the screened in porch. The owner was very kind and helped me get set up with the new TV. We hope to return again soon!

Lovely Getaway
This was a lovely place to getaway from it all for my wife and I to spend our anniversary of 8 years. When we stepped into the cabin we both agreed that everything looked better in person than what was shown in the pictures. We both love the seclusion that this cabin provided and especially enjoying nature around us as well as the hot tub in which we made regular use of. We appreciated the cookies left for us as a welcoming gift to the cabin. Enjoyed the walks to the river and just enjoyed our stay overall even on one rainy day. We look forward to coming back soon.

Beautiful Place
Instead of a 10/10 we would give a 20/10. It is more beautiful, more wide, more lovely than pictures can show. The home is clean, one level so easy to get around. Most places put in dim lights so it's hard to see when cooking etc., this has so many windows during the day you need no lights. At night they have great lighting. The area by the river is so private and park like setting. Just can't say enough about this beautiful place and the owner Derek who made things easier all the way around. Thank you.

Awesome property for visiting Shenandoah NP and Luray
We really enjoyed the privacy and the property met all of our expectations. Even though we didn't spend as much time at Walden as we would have liked, it was a great place to start and finish each day. We enjoyed the well stocked kitchen and the grill for preparing meals and we also enjoyed the restful evenings in the hot tub.

River
For Vrbo kept making me get codes to send any type of message. It would send it to my email which then would take me out of the message box. Has to have laptop and cell phone to make it work. Which I don’t always. ( I know who does). For the place it was very nice. Absolutely loved the sycamore tree down at the river. It was the most amazing tree I seen in a long time. The bark looked like an artist came in and painted silver camouflage patches on the limbs. Setting on the porch and watching the deer from a distance…taking our chairs and setting in the river laughing and having a grand time. It was a much needed relaxing weekend. Even though we don’t live far I don’t have that tree or the river and can see us coming back. Thank you.

Walden - You Are Amazing!
My husband and I decided to visit the Shenandoah Valley area of Virginia for the first time, and we booked Walden. What a gem! The communication with Derek was fantastic and timely, and the cabin was exactly as described. The property was gorgeous, with lots of time spent riverside and enjoying the firepit and hot tub after a long day hiking on the Skyline Drive. It was a much needed and most relaxing stay, and our 4-year-old Border Collie absolutely LOVED watching the deer, bunnies and geese at the river. We stayed for 5 days, but could have stayed a month! We will definitely return some day and appreciate the hospitality (and cookies) and memories that we made at Walden!

fourth return to Walden
I first stayed at the Walden cabin in December 2020, and it was just magical in the snow. I returned in 2021, 2022 and now in 2023. I like the chill and quiet of December for each trip. My dog and I love our thrice-daily walks to the river, and the hot tub is so relaxing before bed, breathing in the 35 degree air while poaching in the 100 degree water. And the millions of stars to be seen, far from the city lights. The cabin is just perfect for me. Spotlessly clean and nicely laid out. The kitchen could use a few more Corningware-type casseroles for heating up leftovers, though. Derek was immediately responsive when I had trouble negotiating the TV settings or with a few other questions, as he has been in the past. Looking forward to hopefully returning in December 2024!

I surprised my wife for our anniversary and I have to say it was everything I was looking for. Cabin was very clean, updated and well maintained. It was secluded with a beautiful mountain view with easy access to Rt340. If your looking for a romantic getaway I definitely recommend the Walden Cabin.
