Check-in was great. The Castaway Cottage was just how it was listed. The back porch was the best part, it was big enough for the whole family to hang out. Unfortunately when we were there it was very hot and the ceiling fans on the porch did not work. Maintenance came to try and fix them but he could not. He even came back a second time to give us another remote control to try. It did not work either. He didn’t get it fixed but was very nice and was very prompt to come out and try and fix it. He even gave us ideas and directions to destinations we wanted to try out. The river was great, the cottage had plenty of canoes and inter tubes we could use. I wish there would have been a better way to enter the river. The cottage is new so maybe one day they can get a deck built you can enter into water from. We still found a way to get into the water. They had a hot tube but we did not use it. The lay out of the cabin was perfect with 4 bedrooms and each had their own bathroom. We loved the cottage and would definitely stay there again.

Perfect for our family of 7, get away ages 42-12 and 2 small dogs. Could have easily and comfortably fit more. The home was very clean and had everything we needed to make meals in the kitchen. It offers a keurig AND separate drip coffee maker. The bedding was super comfortable. The only downfalls for us - might not be for others - were the steps leading up to the home and the water right in front of the cottage. The steps leading up to the home were tall and steep. Made it hard to climb for our elderly dog. Also it is rocky in this location which cannot be changed by the owners, but important to note you cannot swim here. These issues will not stop us from coming back. We were able to take our kayaks to a public landing a few miles up on Shenandoah River road and took a couple hours to ride the river back to the cottage. very peaceful. Saved money after tubing at Outfitters the day before. Will definitely be back.
