Cabin vacation rentals in Lost River

Mark had a gorgeous property, perfectly appointed and pristine. He was a superb host, very responsive and so helpful. The forested lot provides a peaceful and private location just a short hike to the Shenandoah River. The surrounding natural beauty and wildlife were the highlight of our stay. We will definitely be back,

Lea’s place was phenomenal, I highly recommend this stay and Lea as a host. Amenities were great, the place was clean, and if we’re back down that way, we’ll for sure be visiting again.

nice private cabin in the woods. very small but accurately described and it had a wonderful porch that wrapped around the house. kitchen and bathroom had everything needed. would definitely recommend

My family and I loved our stay at Sherilynn’s cabin! The cabin has everything you could want and then some! It had plenty of space and everyone appreciated not having to share bedrooms or fight over bathrooms. We really enjoyed eating on the screened in porch, playing in the creek (We watched a snake eat a fish one night) and both fire pits. The cabin is a perfect base camp for adventures in Shenandoah National Park too. Sherilynn was very responsive and answered all our questions. We would definitely stay there again!

The house was clean and offered beautiful scenery. The grill was located near the river, allowing you to enjoy cooking, dining, and taking in the view all at once. Due to the weather, the firewood was wet; it would be better if it were covered to ensure the fire pit remains usable after rain. Overall, I highly recommend this place and would definitely be happy to revisit.

Great place! Super clean and was such a nice retreat for a mini honeymoon.

Lindsey is responsive and easy to communicate with. Cabin was clean, nicely decorated and comfortable. If you are a motorcyclist, parking area by the cabin is leveled and easy to turn the bike around. Overall great experience.

A beautiful cabin, well updated, and well located. Loved that Maybelle’s is just a stone’s throw while at the same time you are nestled in the woods to getaway. Beds were super comfy, and creature comforts were available. Made for an excellent blend of rustic look/location while having new conveyances. Absolutely recommend and also want to say how I appreciated the personal touch of host reaching out personally to ensure everything was going well. Thank you!

Definitely will rent again everything was great and the host was very helpful. Thank you again for the beautiful hospitality.

Great place for a getaway with friends and family. Jonathan is very responsive, he provides a great handbook for everything of your stay! Will definitely consider to visit again.

This is a lovely property, the porch and swing alone make it worth the stay! The beds were very comfortable and the place is cozy and styled beautifully

House was as described and comfortable. It is a peaceful area and our dogs loved having lots of yard to play and run, and patrol for deer. We enjoyed sitting on the covered porch rain and shine. It would have been nice to have a Keurig coffee machine but the kitchen is otherwise well equipped. Beds were all comfortable and house was clean. It was nice having a washer/dryer to use. The gas grill and hot tub were both a plus. Great place to visit when you want to bring the pups with you. Not a lot to do in the area but a visit to the Luray Caverns is worth it as well as a ride along Skyline Drive. For little ones, there is a playground behind the local elementary school as well as a nice one in Luray. Walmart, Food Lion, Dunkin, and other stores are conveniently located in Luray. Triple Crown BBQ was a hit for takeout and Chop House Bistro was excellent for dinner out. As is clearly noted in the home, ticks are plentiful so dogs should be checked regularly - we found a few on them daily.

This is an amazing home on a mountain side. You have a spectacular view of the mountains and the sunsets were incredible. The home is well furnished and tasteful. The beds very comfortable. It is a restful location and no need to go driving around. I would stay anytme.

This cabin was BETTER than the photos. The view is so beautiful that film can't do it justice. I was so happy when we arrived. The screened in porch was wonderful to spend time in, especially in the morning since you can listen to all the birds. The hammock was peaceful and hearing the water was wonderful. This cabin is a gem, it was worth the stay. Wish we could've stayed longer than a weekend! Luray has so much to do in the area. Highly recommend staying here. Even when a tree fell (due to harsh weather) and blocked the road, within minutes of messaging Anita she had someone coming out to clear the way. Just a overalm wonderful experience! Make sure to go get breakfast at Gathering Grounds Cafe! Best Chai latte in town!

This is our second time staying at Rita's Rapids (first came in fall 2024) and there is a reason we came back and will continue to do so! We love the space and location, especially the fire pit, outdoor sitting, and the river in our backyard which is just the perfect spot to put chairs and read. It's a quick (35-50 min, depending on the trail start) drive to all the Shenandoah trails and easy drive to Luray (for Food Lion, firewood, restaurants, etc. and a bit further but still not bad for other towns like Harrisonburg, Woodstock, etc.). The cabin is comfortable and clean and we love how private it is! Thanks for adding a coatrack! We bring our own olive oil, coffee, shampoo/conditioner/body soap, etc. in case this helps future travelers.

Alex’s space was a great getaway for my partner and I. The kitchen was equipped with all we needed to make dinner. The hot tub and electric fire pit on the deck were our favorite parts! We enjoyed having a private space to enjoy the outdoors. Very, cute, modern, easy to navigate and find things. Would definitely come again when looking for a getaway weekend. The road to get to the house was a little scary, but the hosts provided great instructions on how to navigate to the space. Definitely come with a 4WD or AWD vehicle.

We only stayed one night at the cabin—but what a night it was! We arrived in the evening and were immediately greeted by a small herd of cows, which absolutely delighted my dairy farmer husband and our farm-loving son. After a week at the beach in a less-than-cozy house with minimal amenities, followed by a full day of walking around Monticello, this cabin felt like a warm hug. The space was incredibly comfortable—recliners everywhere (my kind of paradise!) and plenty of seating for everyone. With two full bathrooms, it made traveling with my family and brother so much easier. The peaceful, scenic view was just the cherry on top. Our kids had a great time too—it’s a wonderful spot for families. We also really appreciated the complimentary coffee in the morning—a thoughtful touch from our hosts. Honestly, we kicked ourselves for only booking one night. Lesson learned… we’ll definitely be back for a longer stay next time!

From the moment we first arrived, my newlywed wife and I absolutely fell in love with this cabin. Sitting just a few hundred feet northeast of the pinnacle of Sharp Ridge and overlooking High Knob to the east, this little mountain retreat is a close friend to dazzling sunrises and a bejeweled night sky, winding Allegheny roads and the sarcastically-named Dry Run, a whole host of critterkind and the timbers wherein they make their homes, yet a stranger to civilization, the worldwide web, and—of course—blue waters. In our case, we wanted to disconnect from the technocracy in which we live and exclusively spend quality time with one another immersed in the beauty of nature, and we could not have dreamed of a better spot. Despite the isolation, the charming town of Franklin is only a fifteen-minute drive away and has plenty of groceries, gas, restaurants, and that all-important cell service. As I wrote in the guest book, West Virginia stole our hearts and this cabin was the mastermind.

We really enjoyed the peace and quiet of the area. Amenities were not too far away, and we had enough nearby to keep us interested and well fed for the duration of our stay. The lack of cell phone service in much of the surrounding area was a little concerning, but we downloaded Google maps in advance so we could still navigate from place to place. Overall, this cabin was the perfect fit for the two of us and our two small pups.

Had a great stay. The picture windows and deck overlooking the wooded lot is incredibly peaceful. The owners home is visible from the drive but not from the loft itself so it feels secluded. I was worried the small fridge wouldn’t hold enough for a several day stay but I was wrong and cooking/preparing meals in the loft was easy. Host is communicative and provided clear instructions for check in/check out and how to use various kitchen appliances, the AC, etc. Game room was a fun addition though we mostly choose to relax in the loft or explore nearby hiking trails. Wouldn’t hesitate staying here again!

Loved staying at the Bunkhouse! Really nice and quiet. Perfect getaway for when you want to get out if the city. Lots of cool things to do close by. Maureen was super friendly and fast in all her communications. Would definitely love to come back!

We had a great stay at this cabin in West Virginia. It was clean, comfortable, and well-stocked with everything we needed. The setting was peaceful and private—perfect for unplugging and enjoying nature. Whether you’re sitting by the fire pit, enjoying your morning coffee on the porch, or exploring nearby trails, it’s an ideal spot for a quiet escape. We’d definitely come back!

This home had all the amenities you could want and more. We enjoyed cooking on the Cowboy Cauldron both nights by using foil over the grate. Spacious, private property with a marked trail to the top of Hammon Mountain. Four Comfortable, clean beds in private bedrooms. A quiet, solid 3 story home. We loved the wrap around porch. We saw some deer early in the morning while drinking our coffee The kitchen had everything you need to prepare meals. Stylish & comfortable. Nice sized, clean bathrooms with good water pressure. Wifi was great. We didn’t notice the propane grill until the last day but the cauldron worked very well. We were in the area to hike at Shenandoah but our family wished we had another night to stay and enjoy the property.

Very peaceful, the cabin was very well stocked (everything we needed) and very clean. Thanks for the enjoyable stay.
