About this lodge
Elegant, country escape overlooking the Shenandoah Valley in the Blue Ridge Mountains of VA. Sun Dancer is just off Route 231, one of America's ten most outstanding scenic byways (Great for experienced bikers). Our 60 private acres backs up to the Shenandoah National Park & Old Rag Mt., which offers many scenic hiking trails and activities.
View the wildlife or the spectacular star-studded sky. Watch the moon rise or take a drive on Skyline Drive. We have a stocked pond for catch & release & there's trout fishing at Graves Mt. Lodge right down the road. Pop some popcorn in our theater sized electric popper & watch your favorite movie on our 65" HDTV screen.
The main level is simply glorious with a view that is breathtaking. We have a large stone fireplace built from rocks on our land, and a 16 person dining room. The kitchen is open to the space and ready for a family gathering. We also have a 52 inch TV, as well as newly acquired Internet and Wi-Fi capabilities. Around the back of the kitchen is a beautiful and serene screened in porch with an outdoor chimenea for s'mores or grilling! Take along your choice drink from the downstairs bar & play a game of shuffleboard on our 9' table, some checkers/chess, or a serious game of foosball or cornhole. Pack a picnic and explore our 60 acre land!
Visit the many wineries, Luray caverns, historic Monticello & Montpelier, Charlottesville, civil war sites, golf, horseback ride, antique shops, art galleries. Massanutten provides all season activities - skiing, go carts, golf, bowling, and an indoor water park. Try fishing in our catch & release pond - bring a picnic and enjoy the view.
A massage therapist will come to the lodge for your spa needs. There are many organic farms and farmer's markets nearby. Pasture fed beef can be found at Rider's Backfield farm just around the corner. There are many scheduled events, festivals, & activities throughout the year. There are world class (Inn of Little Washington) to down home restaurants within 1-25 miles. The lodge is ideal for family gatherings, corporate retreats, reunions, birthdays, girls/guys weekends, or just a quick romantic getaway.

Our stay at Sun Dancer was great! Everyone had comfortable sleeping arrangements. Our location to Old Rag Mountain was convenient for doing the hike. We enjoyed sitting by the fire pit at night and seeing the star filled sky. We walked the trails on the property. They were a little overgrown but still doable. We would see a mother and baby fox every day down the driveway. As much as I don't like to cut down trees, it would be nice if one of the trees in front of the house was not there. It blocks the wonderful view. Plenty of vineyards and distilleries to visit. We would stay there again.

Great and unique property. We had an amazing time and would stay there again if we are in the area.

The cabin is located on a huge, beautiful property and overall has a lot of potential. The owner was very accommodating and kindly allowed early check-in and late check-out, which I really appreciated.However, there was a significant issue with bugs inside the cabin, which affected the comfort of the stay. Aside from that, the cabin itself is nice, but this issue made the experience less enjoyable.Overall, I liked the property and hospitality, but improvements are needed in pest control for a better guest experience.

I stayed here with a group of friends during a trip to hike Old Rag. The house was nice for the gathering, with nice eating, lounging, and gaming common areas, mixed with private sleeping accommodations.
