A world of subterranean wonders, a milestone in geological discoveries, Luray caverns, is a wonderful weekend getaway for those who are living near DC or Virginia. It is around 2 hours (or more) drive from washington DC.
This is a picture of the "Dream Lake", a spring of water which has a mirror-like appearance. Stalactites are reflected in the water making them appear to be stalagmites. This gives an illusion that the lake is deeper. The lake is connected to a spring that continues deeper into the caverns.
All in all, it was my first time exploring caverns. It was a fun filled day, learning the stories of the cavern.

Tips:
1) It is very crowded on weekends and holidays. If you want to enjoy peaceful, slow paced, less crowded tour of the caverns, go on weekdays.
2) If you visit the caverns, look for these things-
Saracen's tent - scarves and shawls of translucent calcite, falling in graceful folds, fringed with a thousand patterns, and so thin that a candle light can reveal the structure within!
The fried eggs formation - yes, it looks like fried eggs ;)
The Great Stalacpipe Organ - An actual organ which plays music- sounds of Stalactites! DO NOT miss this one!

Private, safe, quiet, 2 bedrooms, spacious living room, kitchenette & study area

Rockingham

«The abode is located in the basement of a very nice home in a quiet neighborhood. It has a private entrance, very spacious living room and a small kitchenette. There was plenty of towels provided as well as an ironing board/iton, broom and vacuum. Since it is in the lower level of a home, you do have the noise of people above you but it was very quiet at night and in the early morning.It snowed while we were visiting and the host was so kind he cleared our walkway too. We would definitely stay ...

Circleview Suite, Nestled 5 minutes from Beckley,1934 home Remodeled and updated

Beckley

«Very responsive host, and a cute clean home! Others have mentioned the large floor heating vent. While a little inconvenient, this didn’t bother me at all, just adds to the charm of an older (but nicely renovated) house. My dog navigated around it fine and seemed to give it a wide berth intuitively, so that was not an issue. The large fenced yard was great, and I would definitely stay here again if ever in the area!»

«This home was a perfect choice for our sisters weekend! The host, Lisa, was excellent with communication; both before, during, and after our stay. This home was beautiful & clean inside, with all of the amenities of your own home! Comfortable beds, plenty of towels, stocked kitchen, furniture that just hugged you after a day of travel. Wish I could give more than 5 stars! Gorgeous horse farm with a relaxing, peaceful feel. »

Windsong yurt, in the treetops, hottub on the top deck, petfriendly, stargazing

Hillsville

«This was a trip to spend a bit of time with my two adult kiddos before the craziness of the rest of the school year ensues and they both graduate in May. The yurt was perfect, and we basically just hung out playing games and cooking food while we were there. My granddog loved sniffing around thr outdoors, and the kids enjoyed the hot tub. My only insight is that the first set of steps coming up from the parking area may be a bit hazardous for those with any sort of mobility limitations, and ...
