About this chalet rental
Summary:
Experience a cozy mountain retreat at Hummingbird Ridge, perfect for families and small groups seeking peace and connection year‑round.
- Sleeps 10 | 4 bedrooms | 7 beds | 1.5 baths
- Hot tub & fire pit w/ seating for starlit evenings
- Large deck w/ string lights, BBQ grill & play area
- Pellet stove fireplace, Smart TV & WiFi
- Fully equipped kitchen & dedicated workspace
- Pet‑friendly (dogs welcome), family‑ready
The Space:
You step onto the deck as the scent of pine mingles with fresh spring air, and sunlight filters through the tall trees surrounding Hummingbird Ridge. Inside, the living area welcomes you with high ceilings and expansive windows that frame the valley’s gentle rise. A soft breeze carries the promise of longer days, while the pellet stove offers a cozy retreat when evenings turn cool. The cabin invites you to slow down, gather, and breathe in the mountain calm.
Sleeping arrangements
The cabin comfortably sleeps up to ten guests across four bedrooms. One bedroom features a double bed. Two bedrooms each include twin-over-queen bunk beds, ideal for families or mixed‑age groups. The fourth bedroom has two twin beds. Bed linens, extra pillows, and blankets are provided for cooler nights.
Bathrooms
Guests have access to one newly renovated full bathroom and an additional half bath located upstairs. Bathroom essentials are supplied for convenience.
Kitchen & dining
A fully equipped kitchen provides ample counter space and seating nearby, making it easy to prepare and share meals after a day of exploring. A Smart TV and WiFi support movie nights and video calls, though speeds may vary due to the remote location.
Outdoor living
The large deck, accented with string lighting, offers a scenic spot for morning coffee or evening drinks. A hot tub remains a favorite for unwinding under the open sky, and a fire pit with surrounding seating encourages evenings spent roasting s’mores and sharing stories. The open, grassy backyard includes a children’s play area and space for outdoor games when the weather allows. A BBQ grill is ready for casual al‑fresco meals.
Location
Hummingbird Ridge sits within easy driving distance of the George Washington and Jefferson National Forests, offering scenic hikes and seasonal beauty. The cabin is about twenty minutes from Bryce Resort, where spring brings trail walks, mountain biking, and local dining options.
Pet Policy
We’re happy to welcome dogs to join you on your getaway! Please note that due to allergies, we’re unable to accommodate cats. The cabin is pet‑friendly and welcomes dogs, provided they are up to date on their rabies vaccination as required by Jefferson County. A $29 pet fee applies per furry friend, per night to help cover additional cleaning and care. Thanks for understanding—we look forward to hosting you and your pup!
Longer Stays
For stays of 14 nights or longer, guests will be asked to e-sign a rental agreement prior to arrival. This agreement helps us comply with local requirements while protecting the property, and will be sent in advance for review.
Perfect for
Families, friends, and small groups seeking a pet‑friendly mountain retreat will find room to spread out, reconnect, and enjoy a quieter pace. Whether you’re gathered around the pellet stove, soaking in the hot tub on a cool evening, or exploring the surrounding forest, the cabin provides a comfortable base for a Shenandoah Valley escape.
Additional notes
Our cleaning team sweeps the deck, stairs, and walkways before each arrival, but you may still notice leaves, pollen, or other outdoor elements, especially in spring. WiFi is available, though service may occasionally be slower or spotty; we recommend downloading essential content ahead of time.

Perfect place to stay on a hiking vacation
8 / 10Excellent·Jun 2024
You can not beat the tranquility of this secluded spot in the mountains. And the owner's communication was fast and efficient. The bed was super comfy and the view of the stars at night was sublime. I enjoyed my stay very much.

Morning sunrise was amazing from the deck.
6 / 10Average·Apr 2023
It was surprising what the cabin did and did not have. It was better than most as far as cookware, kitchen supplies, shower supplies and so forth.
It was under supplied in tea towels (for a week of cooking), electrical outlets near mirrors (to style one's hair - no outlet in the bathroom) and no dresser, closet or even a luggage rack in the smallest bedroom. Linens were nice.
We enjoyed use of the deck grill, fire pit and hot tub and grilled and cooked daily.
It is pet friendly but no gates are on the porch. They say to bring your own baby gates (2) which we do not have. I would've rented 2 if they made that an option.
We had a blast zip line riding and my 10 year old grandson could not stop taking pics at Luray Caverns. Fantastic place.
My favorite pants badly snagged on a rough spot on the deck .
Some safety issues exist. The steps up from the driveway to the deck steps are unsafe and steep. We are retired, not young, and my husband has 2 ribs still healing from a past injury. He had to drag two ice chests and one large suitcase up those unsteady steps to the deck steps.
The lose stepping stones up to the hot tub are dangerous for children and adults.
The deck around the hot tub is to narrow to safely uncover and cover the tub. Narrow deck exists at the tub entry.
Two chairs were broken. The rocking chair inside; we reported quickly. It was not repaired during our stay. A lovely wooden deck chair was also falling apart.
The shower curtain is hung to low and drags on the shower floor. Another fall risk .
We will return to the area one autumn; when my youngest grandchild is big enough to zip line on Mamma Bear. They will want to see Luray Cavern again. We will look for a different cabin. A safer one.
