The Space:
A quiet mountain morning settles in as steam rises from the hot tub and the Shenandoah Valley stretches out beyond the trees. Cool air, birdsong, and the stillness of nature create an easy rhythm here - a place where you can slow down, warm up, and feel tucked away while still close to town.
Ellery Cottage is a modern, newly-renovated cabin set in the mountains of Luray, just a short walk from the Shenandoah River and a brief drive from downtown. In the cooler months, the setting feels especially peaceful, making it easy to unwind after a day exploring the area or simply enjoying the comforts of the cottage.
Sleeping arrangements
The cottage comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests across three bedrooms and a living area. One bedroom features a queen bed, while the other two bedrooms each include a queen/twin bunk bed. In the living room, a pull out sofa offers additional sleeping space. Bed linens, extra pillows, and blankets are provided to keep everyone comfortable during crisp mountain nights.
Living space
Single level living and no stairs make settling in easy. The main living area is designed for gathering, with natural light, comfortable seating, and a TV for relaxed evenings of streaming. WiFi is available for movies or video calls, though service may occasionally be slower due to the remote mountain location. Central air conditioning and heating keep the space comfortable year-round.
Kitchen and dining
The kitchen is fully equipped and ready for home-cooked meals, whether you’re preparing a hearty breakfast before heading out or a cozy dinner back at the cabin. Everything you need for everyday cooking is on hand, making it easy to enjoy meals together without leaving the property.
Outdoor living
The outdoor spaces invite you to step outside. The hot tub is a favorite year-round, perfect for soaking under the open sky after a chilly day. The backyard and deck provide room to spread out. A grill is available for those who enjoy cooking outdoors when weather allows.
Family- and pet-friendly stays
Ellery Cottage is family-friendly and pet-friendly, welcoming kids and dogs alike. Children’s books, toys, and dinnerware are available, and the spacious yard gives everyone room to play. Cats are not allowed.
Practical comforts
A washer and dryer are available, along with bathroom essentials, a bathtub, and everyday conveniences that make longer stays easy. Free parking on the premises, a private entrance, and self check-in with a lockbox add flexibility and ease to your arrival.
Neighborhood and nearby attractions
The Shenandoah River is just a short walk away, offering scenic views in every season. Downtown Luray and the famous Luray Caverns are about a 10-minute drive, with access to local restaurants, breweries, shops, and seasonal festivals. Shenandoah National Park and surrounding mountain scenery are close by, making this an ideal base for exploring the area.
Ellery Cottage is well suited for couples, families, or groups of friends looking for a relaxed mountain retreat with easy access to nature and town, no matter the season.
Note
This property offers convenient one-story living, making it easy to settle in and enjoy your stay.
We often take our three little kids and dog to the cottage with us, so we're very family- and dog-friendly. Unfortunately we don't allow cats (we're allergic).
Our cleaning team sweeps the deck, stairs, and walkways before each arrival, but given the natural setting, you may still notice some leaves, pollen, or other outdoor elements—especially during certain seasons. Nature has a way of leaving its mark, no matter how often we tidy up, and we appreciate your understanding.
Wi-Fi is provided, though service can occasionally be slower or spotty due to the remote mountain location. We recommend downloading any essential content in advance so you can fully relax and enjoy your stay.
