All went well with our trip to Tony's place. Beautiful area, very peaceful stay. The host was wonderful as well.

Beautiful place!!
This adorable two bedroom cabin was exactly as explained. It was so cute. So comfortable and so relaxing. Tony was a great host and had everything we needed for our little weekend getaway. We will definitely look at renting this cabin again in the future.
Very quaint and such a cute venue. The location is a 10/10
Positive:
The location was great, the surrounding area was so nice and less than 20 miles to the entrance of Shenandoah. The room was cute, the staff communicated via email (no front desk, etc) but did so frequently, making sure we had everything we needed.
Negative:
I’m sure due to the age/ construction etc, it just felt kind of damp, like the tile and surfaces in the bathroom always felt slick. It didn’t bother us but wanted to note in case others might be more sensitive to that.
It was a beautiful home, with everything we needed it also felt very cosy. Tony was very responsive on everything and accommodating. I would definitely stay here again.
We had an amazing time with the beautiful views of Luray and skyline Drive!
Positive:
Very clean and cozy! A perfect spot for a long weekend. The room we stayed in was very spacious in the bathroom was also great. We were really impressed at the size of the room for staying in a house. I totally recommend a vacation to this place. The views in every direction you headed were amazing. We are so happy for our time there. Thank you.
Negative:
There’s really nothing that we didn’t like about our stay or the property.
Superb little getaway location for the family.
We had a great time at the Orion Dome. Will surely come back. Thanks to other reviews, we came prepared for the sulphur in the water and didn’t bother us. We were lucky to watch the Lunar eclipse from inside the dome. Tony was very responsive to our messages and had clear instructions for checking in and out. Wish we had booked longer than two days.
The property was beautiful and just enough away from people!
Thank you for the review and for staying at Blue Owl Retreat. I'm glad you found the property beautiful and enjoyed its peaceful, private setting. We appreciate the 4-star rating and hope to welcome you back.
It’s a really cute house, very well-appointed, especially the kitchen. Gorgeous new windows and super clean. The firepit area and hot tub were clean and practically new. Plenty of space to park, a nice front porch for relaxing, and shade trees all around. The river access is down the road a ways, driving not walking distance, and is really pretty as well. Peaceful picnic areas and a place to put in your own kayak or floats. Very responsive management company and easy rental overall.
We had a great time relaxing in the seclusion with our two pups. The property is close enough to town to grab fresh produce and trek a little farther to a local butcher, yet far enough out for all the privacy and quiet you need for an escape from the grind. The kitchen was well equipped and the grill was clean and ready w an extra tank if we needed it. The screened in porch was fantastic and kept the mosquitoes at bay. We will definitely be coming back on a regular basis.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. I'm glad Shenandoah Cabin provided the quiet, pet-friendly escape you were looking for. It's great the location worked well for grabbing fresh produce and the butcher, and that the kitchen and grill (with the extra tank) met your needs. I'm also happy the screened porch kept the mosquitoes at bay. We look forward to hosting you again on a regular basis.
We had such a wonderful stay at Tony’s cabin! ❤️When we first arrived around midnight, my fiancé was a little unsure because it was his first time ever spending a night in the woods. Since we arrived so late, he didn’t feel completely comfortable and decided to stay at a nearby hotel for the first night. The next morning, we went back to check out the Airbnb properly,and I’m so glad we did!He absolutely loved it. The cabin turned out to be such a beautiful and peaceful experience, and honestly, it was a moment we both really needed. It gave us the opportunity to disconnect, slow down, and simply enjoy being together. Tony was amazing throughout our entire stay. He was always available, reassuring, and quick to answer any questions. I had some trouble opening the handbook, but Tony was immediately available to help and made everything so easy. By the end of our stay, we both completely fell in love with the place. ❤️ We would absolutely come back again and again! Thank you Tony
Place was beautiful, smaller than the pictures made it out to be. From the pictures we were to believe we would be secluded, however we did have neighbors. Overall a great weekend still.
Tony was a great host!! Always communicating and was quick to respond to my messages as well.
The property is beautiful, peaceful and very private.
Will visit again!!
The cabin was great for a weekend away. Hosts were quick to communicate about any issues we had. Great location and very comfortable.
We had a wonderful and relaxing stay! Beautiful surroundings and peaceful. The house had everything we needed!
Tony is an awesome host! He was very responsive & allowed us to check in a tad bit early! The cabin was secluded & the amenities were top notch! We absolutely loved the hot tub & fire pit area! So relaxing! Highly recommend the property & Tony as a host! Thank you for the hospitality!
Beautiful and clean home. Everything we needed to make our stay wonderful was there. Very good host. Respond time to text is less than a minute. We have fun and could make business with him again anytime we in the area. Thanks for hosting us.
Second time staying at one of their properties and it didn’t disappoint, it was cozy, private and quiet.
Tony is always making sure you have what you need and is responsive and helpful.
Would stay here again.
Loved our stay- perfect for our needs and the area is so beautiful
