Family-friendly holiday rentals in Rappahannock County

this cabin was a gem! Just what I was looking for. My fiancee father lives in Luray and we wanted to surprise him and come down for father's day, but I also wanted a romantic, remote getaway for us. this was perfect! we surprised his dad, were able to spend time with him in Luray, but still had a beautiful cabin to retreat to, with a hot tub! And our dog was very welcomed. I loved the little added touches!

We had a really nice time at the cabin. Everything was laid out very nicely and was ready for us the moment we arrived. The space is beautiful and right on the lake. It was extremely peaceful to sit in the large screened deck and hang out with the stunning lake in view. Hope to stay here again some day!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay here very much. The check in process was easy, views were great, hot tub was nice. Only complaints would be the bed as it was not comfy/very squeaky. We would definitely consider staying here again next time we visit Shenandoah National Park.

This is our second visit to Jim and Lisa’s cabins (last time we were at the smaller one) and once again it was PERFECT! A fabulous place for a peaceful getaway in a gorgeous setting in a cozy, comfortable, sparkling clean and well-appointed cabin. It is the perfect combination of simplicity and luxury. We felt as though we were back in much more simple and graceful times, yet with every possible modern amenity at our fingertips. Cozy loving room, spacious open kitchen, charming bedrooms and best of all a great porch to sip coffee slowly and take in the beauty talk around. Thanks again Jim and Lisa! We will be back!

The only part of the stay that didn't get 5 stars was that it wasn't quite as secluded as I'd hoped for. There are a number of homes on the road to the cabin, and a thin line of trees breaks the view. Admittedly unless you're looking for the other houses you don't notice them, so I got past that quickly enough. That said, the cabin was perfect, clean, cozy and everything worked as stated. Having grown up in the country, but living in a city now, I felt the stress melt away as soon as I stepped into the massive yard where my son and I spent a lot of time playing soccer and other sports. My son and wife really enjoyed the hot tub. The location is 15 minutes away from Luray which meant that the stars were amazing for the brief break in the clouds we got, but that it was close enough to get groceries and take out as needed. Plus it's about 20 minutes away from Front Royal so there are places to go and enjoy like Skyline or Luray Caverns. Jackie was a great and responsive host!

Kelly's place is a 5 star getaway. easily fit my family of 10. she answered my questions almost before I'd even asked them. it was close and convenient to everything while being secluded at the same time. beautiful cabin with great amenities. the beds were among the most comfortable any of us have been in. thank you so much!

This cabin and location were as peaceful and relaxing as they come! It’s close to Shenandoah National Park if you’re looking for some hikes or other outdoor activities, but it’s a perfect place to just hang out in nature and relax. We did not want to leave and can’t wait to go back!

This was our first time using Airbnb and it was a great experience. It was a little weird as I unlocked the door and walked in the first time. Soft lights and a screensaver on the tv, felt like I was walking into someone’s house. The views from the cabin were amazing - even in the rain and fog. Returning from town one day we discovered the power was out. Brian had sent a few messages keeping us informed. The wood stove kept us cozy. The hot tub was relaxing at sunset and at 6:30 in the morning. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. The road was rough and got worse with 2 nights of heavy rain, but someone was taking care of it as best they could. The rain had the waterfall running fast and furious. I have added pics of an early morning and a sunset from the deck as screensavers to my phone to remind me of this beautiful place.

This was the perfect spot for our nature loving family! So peaceful and plenty of room for everyone. We kept a fire going in the beautiful fireplace and they provided us with plenty of wood. Close to Old Rag and spent an afternoon in Sperryville. We saw deer, hawks and Bald Eagles Would definitely recommend if you need a quiet private setting!

We throughly enjoyed our stay in the Barn Loft. Andrea and Steve are gracious hosts. Prior to our arrival, we received information to prepare for our stay. We received timely communication on the date of our arrival. The property is even better than the pictures display. We truly felt welcome and at home. The furnishings are cozy and the beds are so comfortable. Our family enjoyed meeting the hosts, exploring the property, and the opportunity to rest and to relax in such a beautiful scenic area. We appreciated the fact that our dog could accompany us on this trip. Thank you for sharing your home with us. We look forward to returning.

The views and peace are unmatched. Enjoyed the paved path to walk dinner off too! Very clean, great jacuzzi tub inside and hot tub outside. Very close to SNP. Full kitchen was nice. Deer entertained us every morning . Loved it all.

What an absolutely beautiful place. We loved waking up to a beautiful sunset and peaceful strolls around the property. All the communication and recommendations were wonderful and we wish we could have stayed longer.

David’s home is the perfect space for getting away in the mountains. It is a short drive (~25 min) to Shenandoah National Park. The house itself is very cozy and well decorated. It had everything we needed and then some. Would love to come back!!

great place for quiet vacation very private and beautiful surroundings. will definitely go back !

Peter and Helen were just wonderful from start to finish. They made sure the cabin (which is so lovely, very homey and rustic) was ready for us complete with a book of things to do and intros to the area and their farm. There was a slight issue with another renter on the property, but Peter and Helen had it resolved in less than an hour (even though it was quite early in the morning). Within 15 mins of Sperryville and 40 mins of Shenandoah National Park, absolutely perfect.

The Sun Dancer Lodge has the most wonderful views! Not hard to find, yet so quiet and peaceful. Plenty of room and Darden was a responsive and helpful host! We'll look to come back next year!

The whole experience was amazing. The space itself is beautiful and homey and the nature surrounding is gorgeous and peaceful. The hosts were so sweet and attentive and it was an awesome experience overall. 10/10 would absolutely come again!!

Joe and I are so grateful to have experienced this peaceful area. We plan to come back more than once. We can not wait to return ! We can not thank the ambassador enough for such a peaceful romantic place. See you soon!

Great host, gorgeous views, and a quaint old home with history. Queen bed was very comfy and ac worked great! Host greeted us, answered any questions we had, provided local recommendations for our anniversary, and had even more amenities than we expected upon arrival. Would definitely come back if in the area again! My dogs loved the farm.

We loved our stay in the Airstream! It had all the amenities we needed. We especially enjoyed the location being close to the Shenandoah National Park which made it a great home base to leave from every day for long hikes. We also enjoyed cooking on the nice gas stove after long days in the mountains. It was a great get away! We highly recommend this stay for anyone looking for a fun/creative place to stay in the area!

Thank you so much for the great stay! We enjoyed the area and were able to relax at your place.

The location of the house was very good in the forest and it was just what I wanted to enjoy the jacuzzi in the evening and it was also very enjoyable They were friendly and kind I am grateful for everything 🙏

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin! Close enough to all the hikes we wanted to do. Pet friendly (huge for us) and beautiful views! Please make sure you read the whole listing, as you definitely need a vehicle with 4 wheel drive to get up the driveway. We brought our own towels, sheets, and so on as stated and everything else we needed was available. Would recommend bringing dish towels. We had forgotten them this trip. Cooking pots and pans are little outdated but they’re just fine! We had a wonderful taco night anniversary dinner at the cabin and throughly enjoyed a nice soak in the hot tub. There’s a very nice above ground pool also but it was too cold this time of year to swim in. I would definitely stay again!

My husband and I stayed here right after we hot married and it was the most lovely experience! It was an absolute blast, I wouldn’t have changed a thing except I wish I could’ve stayed longer. Maud was so sweet and I loved having her as a host. Cannot recommend enough!
