Please Note: You're in Nature's Backyard!
Our home is nestled in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley and mountain region, which means you're likely to see some of our wild neighbors — including deer, turkeys, foxes, raccoons, and even the occasional bear.
To help keep both guests and wildlife safe, we kindly ask that you: • Do not leave children outside unattended. • Keep vehicle doors locked at all times. • Avoid leaving food, trash, or scented items outdoors. • Never feed, approach, or attempt to touch any wildlife. During snowy season, all wheel drive vehicles may be required. We strive to maintain this space as a peaceful haven for both people and nature. Thank you for helping us respect and preserve the wild beauty that makes this area so special.
You may also find bugs, snakes and critters. Brown marmorated stink bugs are proIlific in the fall and don't be surprised to see 8 legged friends, too. Oh, the thrills of country and cabin life!

A very welcoming and comfortable place to stay! The host thought of everything and we enjoyed watching the sun rise over the mountain with our hot cup of coffee every morning. What a beautiful quiet place to read our Bible, Pray, and get renewed! Thank you Maryam!
The cabin was very beautiful and clean and the kitchen was stocked very well. We had plenty of privacy. Which was lovely. My only recommendations are, the kitchen could use some dish towels and maybe a spotlight to help see at night in the backyard.
We really enjoyed our quick getaway to the mountains. My kids were so sad when it was time to leave. It was nice to disconnect from home and enjoy the outdoors. It was amazing to have a place that my mother could enjoy as well as she does have some mobility issues. This house had everything we needed!
Beautiful and well furnished home! Maryam was a great communicator before and during our stay. We loved feeling like we were in the country while being a short distance from restaurants, shopping and entertainment. We especially loved sitting on the screened porch in the mornings and evenings. We will be back!
This was a perfect stay for our family of 4! The property is amazing, and we enjoyed listening to the sounds of the creek both while sitting around the campfire, and also while sitting outside on the screened-in deck. The house was very clean, and plenty of bedrooms to spread out! We very much appreciated the supply of coffee and fixings, as well condiments in the fridge. This was a fantastic stay, and would welcome the chance to come back on our next trip to Virginia!!
Quiet. The creek was nice to hear sitting on the screened porch. The fire pit and grill a little too far down hill for this senior group. Plenty of seating in the living area and porch.Kitchen well equipped. Recommend!
The cabin was perfect for the family members gathering in Staunton for a funeral. The grounds were beautiful and access was easy. The hosts were great communicators for any questions we had.
Perfect weekend getaway with the family. Very comfortable, clean and accommodating! Loved cooking with the family, plenty of room and well supplied for the cook. The owners were pleasant, and great hosts! Loved the fire pit area by the creek and the walking trails. Look forward to visiting again, thank you!
We came in town for a wedding and knew we didn’t want to stay at a hotel. We came across this cabin and booked immediately! The house was very clean and we enjoyed sitting on the screened in porch! Before we left, we explored the stream on the property and talked about how we’d love to.stay again!
We found this property when looking for a place to spend Christmas close to family. The pictures are beautiful but don't come close to doing the property justice in person! The house was well stocked with cookware/utensils and was perfect for us to host our family holiday dinner. The property owner was wonderful and answered my multiple questions about what was on hand prior to our arrival, and even went the extra mile of putting up a Christmas tree and decorations for us - what a nice surprise on our arrival! Would highly recommend not only the property, but also our very gracious and professional host :) We will definitely be staying again the next time we are in the area.
We really enjoyed our stay and everything is as advertised in the listing...Our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer! The owner was very easy to communicate with and was always very prompt with answers to our questions. The only issue we really experienced was upon arrival when we followed our phone's directions and it took us down the wrong road. Otherwise this is a great place, very comfortable and modern with a rustic feel. Everyone in our family was very impressed once we stepped inside and some regretted not being able to stay with us. Would definitely stay here again!
This is an exceptionable property. It is QUIET. The porch is fantastic for morning coffee, breakfast and evening meals. The home is well-furnished and very clean. The kitchen is adequate for any cooking needs and the overall floorplan lends itself well to family activities. Interaction with the owner is both pleasant and professional. My family really enjoyed this property. The proximity to Staunton, wineries and hiking is excellent. I wholeheartedly recommend the cabin for any family's stay in the Staunton area.
Cabin was beautiful and in a great location...seemed like it was in the middle of nowhere, but really only 10 minutes or so from everything. I would suggest two improvements...maybe a flag or reflector out by the road to indicate where to turn in. Returning at night is hard, until you get to know the area, then it's still a little hard. A handrail is severely needed for walking down to the creek/fire pit area, for the safety of older guests! ^_^
The cabin was perfect for our family of 6. It was exceptionally clean. The beds and pillows comfy and everyone rested well. The location is tucked away and private. At the same time, you're within 10 mins of downtown Staunton and only 25 min drive to Humpback Rocks. Owners were very responsive and friendly. They went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and had what we needed. The internet at the cabin worked well for an online class. Make sure to bring extra shoes if you plan to play in the creek, it's very muddy. The screened in porch was amazing, keeping the bugs out but able to enjoy the beautiful scenery. Overall, great stay and hope to return at some point in time.
Fantastic location - this will undoubtedly be a top stay in the Staunton area.
- This location is the definition of tranquil. Beautiful stay located off-road, near a creek, surrounded by trees. Screened in porch makes for peaceful mornings/evenings when you just want to enjoy the peace and quiet.
- The property is only 10-11 minutes from downtown Staunton. Pretty simple and easy drive to and from.
- The property feels safe. You are off-road a little and in a good area.
- Clean
- You can tell the owners put a lot into the cabin. The bathrooms and showers are really nice. Everything feels spacious. Can comfortably fit 3-4 pairs (The downstairs, in my opinion, is the best room for a couple with young kids).
All in all, this a wonderful location that you should definitely consider if you are wanting to visit this region!
it's our first time to stay in this cabin
we weren't really sure what would happen
but to our delight
all day and all night
each guest, their hands they were clappin'
our little group of six has stayed in the staunton area many times, but this was our first stay at "Life Is Better At The Cabin". this cabin sure lived up to its name - spacious, beautiful, and comfy would be good adjectives to describe this cabin. we all enjoyed our bedrooms and bathrooms, nice comfy beds and great showers. the kitchen was gorgeous and was well stocked with dishes, it even included a nice little coffee bar. but our favorite was the HUGE screened-in back porch. we spent much of our time out there just enjoying each others' company and the solitude of being in the mountains. the owner even stopped by to see if everything was okay and to let us know where his herd of yaks was located. this cabin is located super close to Staunton but in a remote setting. well decorated and super comfortable. would we recommend this cabin? yes, yes, a thousand times YES.
This cabin is the perfect getaway! It's tucked away near a stream, but less than 20 minutes from historic downtown Staunton. The master bedroom suites upstairs and downstairs are spacious. Ideally setup for 3 couples, but there is a nice additional king bed downstairs, just not in a traditional bedroom. The bathrooms are contemporary and modern. The open kitchen, living room, dining area worked great for the group to chat, eat, and drink. The back deck runs the full length of the cabin and is screened-in with a large dining table. The sunrise coming through the trees, over the stream, into the kitchen in the morning was so nice to enjoy with coffee. The fire pit is down the hill by the stream (coming back up the hill is a nice leg workout 🙂) and there is an outdoor grill that the guys used - the food came out great. We played Jenga and Scrabble, that the host has kindly provided (alomg woth some other games). There is a foosball table downstairs too. I'm not sure if there is a washer and dryer onsite because I didn't look for it lol. The hosts are amazing at answering any questions you have!! The only thing we had to maneuver all weekend was the parking- its down a narrow gravel drive and only room for our 2 SUVs- you need to be a good backup driver to get in and out :) I highly recommend staying here!
