Far View Shenandoah | Hot Tub, Movie & Game Room, Valley Views | 3BR & Sleeps 6

Summary:

Discover Far View Shenandoah, a private cabin reimagined from one of the area's original hunting cabins for rest and reconnection. Panoramic views stretch for miles, mornings unfold on the screened porch, and evenings end in the private hot tub under a sky full of stars. Inside, a lower-level movie and game room gives groups room to gather, while a fully stocked kitchen and fast WiFi make it easy to settle in and stay awhile.



The space



Once one of the area's original hunting cabins, Far View Shenandoah has been thoughtfully reimagined for comfort while keeping its rustic character. It sits high above the valley, with panoramic views that stretch for miles.



🍽️ Gather

The open main level centers on a two-story painted-brick fireplace, with windows framing the Shenandoah Valley and a dining table for six. The kitchen is a real one — stainless appliances plus a Vitamix, KitchenAid mixer, and a four-way coffee setup (Nespresso, Keurig, French press, and drip), stocked with cookware, bakeware, and glassware for everything from a slow breakfast to a holiday dinner. A breakfast nook seats four, and the island bar two more.



🎬 Play

There's room to spread out and play. The upstairs loft offers comfortable lounge seating and a smart TV—a cozy spot for reading, relaxing, or movie nights. Downstairs, the movie and game room is the entertainment hub: a 75-inch smart TV with soundbar over a big sectional, a second fireplace, foosball, an arcade machine, and a stack of board games, with a walkout straight to the hot tub.



🔥 Unwind

Outside is where the views earn the name. The screened porch looks out over the valley; the front deck has a propane grill and café seating for meals al fresco. Out back, soak in the private hot tub (open year-round), gather around the propane fire pit, or stretch out on the lawn as the sky fills with stars.



🛏️ Rest

The cabin accommodates up to six guests across three bedrooms: the Blue Room with a king bed and Red Room with a queen bed on the main floor, and the Green Room with a king bed on the lower level. The main-level bath has a tub and shower; the lower-level bath has a walk-in shower, ideal after a soak.

The neighborhood



Far View Shenandoah sits in a quiet mountain community near Front Royal — a mix of full-time residents, second homes, and vacation rentals tucked into the Blue Ridge foothills. Front Royal is the northern gateway to Skyline Drive and Shenandoah National Park, with the Shenandoah River, Skyline Caverns, and a growing roster of Virginia wineries all nearby, plus a historic downtown for dining and shopping when you want it.



Getting around



A car is the easiest way to get around. Skyline Drive and Shenandoah National Park are about 25 minutes, and Front Royal's groceries, gas, and restaurants are a short drive for anything you need.



Other things to note

📶 Connectivity • Fast WiFi, around 770 Mbps, supports streaming, remote work, and video calls. Cell service can be limited in the mountains, but WiFi calling keeps you connected.



🚗 Getting Here & Winter Weather • Most of the drive in is paved, with a short stretch of well-packed gravel at the end. Standard 2WD is fine most of the year; during snow or ice, AWD or 4WD is recommended and occasionally required, and we'll share access guidance ahead of any winter storm.



🐶 Pets • One dog is welcome with our $75 pet fee. Additional dogs are considered on a case-by-case basis and are $75 each. If you’re bringing more than one, please let us know and we’ll add the additional pet fee after your reservation is confirmed.



🚼 Family-Friendly • Traveling with little ones? A pack 'n play and full-size high chair are provided.



🧯 Safety & Cleanliness • All bedding is washed between every reservation. Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are installed throughout, with fire extinguishers on each level, plus flashlights and lanterns for the rare power outage. The hot tub is not gated, so children should be supervised around it at all times.



🦌 Wildlife & Mountain Setting • Nestled among forest and open sky, you'll likely spot deer, wild turkeys, and the occasional fox. Insects and small critters can make an appearance now and then — part of the charm of a true mountain setting.



🌡️ Heating, Cooling • As a former hunting cabin, the home doesn't have central heating or AC. Mini-splits in the main living area and basement handle year-round comfort, with an additional AC unit in the loft and supplemental heaters in the bedrooms. Note that each bedroom does not have its own dedicated AC unit.
