We were looking for a weekend getaway to do some hiking in Shenendoah and the Cozy Cabin was perfect! The views from the deck were gorgeous, and loved having a fireplace in the living room and bedroom on a cold weekend. Close to Front Royal, and the park - overall very happy with our stay!

My husband and I needed a weekend away, and this was the perfect spot! The cabin is exactly as pictured, and the views from the wrap-around deck are just spectacular! We made use of the fireplace on chilly mornings, and it was close enough to Skyline Drive that we were able to spend multiple days in the national park. We are already planning to return again soon!
