The Space:
The crisp mountain air greets you as you step onto the porch, steam curling from the hot tub while the valley hush settles around the cottage. Snow‑kissed trees frame the sunroom, where sunlight filters through large windows onto warm wooden floors. Inside, soft lighting and simple comforts invite you to unwind, whether you’re sipping coffee while watching the snowfall or settling in for a quiet evening by the decorative fireplace.
Sleeping arrangements
Two bedrooms comfortably sleep up to four guests. The master bedroom offers a queen‑size bed with fresh linens, while the second bedroom features a set of bunk beds, perfect for kids or friends. Extra pillows and blankets are provided for chilly nights. A spacious loft adds a cozy nook for reading or relaxing, though it is intended for lounging rather than sleeping.
Living spaces
The main living area is bright and welcoming, with radiant heating that keeps the space comfortable throughout winter. A Smart TV and fast Wi‑Fi are ready for streaming or work, and a dedicated workspace with a door offers privacy for any tasks. The sunroom opens onto wooded views, making it an ideal spot for morning coffee or watching the drift of snow through the trees.
Kitchen & dining
A full kitchen is equipped for preparing hearty breakfasts, casual lunches, and relaxed dinners after a day of exploring. The adjacent dining area keeps everyone connected around the table, encouraging shared meals and conversation.
Outdoor living
The hot tub is available year‑round, offering a soothing soak against the cool air. A private backyard includes a fire pit, BBQ grill, picnic table, and a patio that lets you step outside whenever the weather cooperates. Lake access is just a short walk away, with a path and dock for quiet moments by the water. The yard is not fully fenced, so pets should be supervised.
Location & surroundings
A 15‑minute drive brings you to downtown Front Royal, where restaurants, shops, and local favorites await. Shenandoah National Park is also about 15 minutes away, offering winter hikes and scenic drives. Breweries and wineries are within easy reach for relaxed outings throughout the year.
Perfect for
Pet‑friendly families, couples seeking a peaceful retreat, or friends looking for a quiet base near nature will feel at home here. Self check‑in, free on‑site parking, and a private entrance make arrival and departure effortless.
Additional notes
The indoor fireplace is decorative only and cannot be used. A very slight smoke smell remains from previous owners; most guests do not notice it, but those highly sensitive may prefer another setting. Our cleaning team sweeps the deck, stairs, and walkways before each arrival, yet natural leaves and pollen may still be present, especially in certain seasons. Dogs are welcome; cats are not allowed due to allergies.
