Walk to downtown Luray's shops, restaurants, wineries, and breweries right from your front door — no car needed for evening outings.

COMFORTABLE LIVING SPACES

The open-concept living area is designed for togetherness. Gather on the plush sofa for movie night on the large Smart TV with streaming apps, or spread out with a book while the kids play. The home features high-speed Wi-Fi throughout, so remote workers can stay connected from the dedicated workspace while the rest of the family relaxes.

Additional comfort features include towel warmers in both bathrooms (a guest favorite!), central heating and air conditioning for year-round comfort, and a convenient single-level layout with no stairs — ideal for young children, grandparents, or anyone who appreciates easy accessibility.

FULLY EQUIPPED KITCHEN

No need to eat out for every meal — the modern, fully stocked kitchen has everything you need to prepare family dinners or pack picnic lunches for your Skyline Drive adventure. You'll find quality cookware, utensils, plates, glasses, and a coffee and tea station to start your mornings right. The dishwasher makes cleanup a breeze, and the dining area seats the whole group for shared meals and game nights.

A full-size washer and dryer are available for guest use — especially handy for families on longer stays or after a day of hiking and river fun.

OUTDOOR SPACE & RELAXATION

Step outside to your private, fully fenced backyard retreat. Unwind in the hammock after a day of sightseeing, enjoy morning coffee on the patio seating, or spend the evening enjoying the home's newest outdoor amenities.

Relax in the private barrel sauna beneath its pergola, soak in the private hot tub, or gather around the fire pit after a day exploring Luray and Shenandoah National Park. Whether you're starting the morning slowly or winding down after a hike, the outdoor space gives you your own private place to relax throughout your stay.

The peaceful residential neighborhood offers a quiet escape from the tourist areas while keeping you minutes from all the action.

As the home is located near downtown Luray, you may occasionally hear passing trains or the town’s fire station alarm — both typical throughout the area.

Driveway parking accommodates up to 4 vehicles with additional free street parking — perfect for families arriving in multiple cars or groups caravanning together.
