Not for everyone

The check in process was fine and all check in details were accurate. The house was clean. Stuffy and warm but that's what you get with an old house. I felt the description was misleading. I thought we would be able to see the river from the front porch, since it is labeled as a "River Front Property". You have to walk a while and through a tree line to get to it. There were several boarded off areas. There was mold around the base of the hot tub. There were windows that did not lock shut. A front door that only locked by a hook and eye latch. No curtains or blinds on any window accept the bedrooms and bathrooms. We were excited to site by a campfire every night only to be told via a index card on the table when you walked in "No fires, too windy". Which it was not at that time. You are at the end of the road, completely secluded. If you are used to extremely rural areas or looking for a horror flick vibe this is the house for you. It was not for us. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience a cabin with none of the murder vibes at the Yogi the Bear camp ground up the street.

Rustic old house for a quiet get away with a great location

Overall, we had a great stay and would go back! The location is very quiet. It was great with our 2 dogs, as they had space to move inside and out. We went out hiking every morning and this was a great middle of the Skyline Drive location to go to any of the trails. But also all of the other sights and to different towns for restaurants. There is also a grocery store and a Walmart close by in Luray.You can't really see the river from the house in the summer, but the mountain view was gorgeous. And it's pretty to walk the trail down to the river. We saw deer every morning and evening in the fields as well (and twice right outside the door to the grill).Some things to note (and maybe I missed on the description):The rock driveway (which was noted) is long and narrow. The last half has a lump in the middle, and our van was dragging rocks with it, even at 5mph. We did try to ride the edge from then on, but there isn't much of an edge. It was better once there was less weight in the van. If you have a low riding vehicle this may not be the place for you, unless the the lump is fixed.The split units did a pretty good job of cooling the house, during a heatwave. They ask you to keep the temp at 75, which was OK for us. There are no units in the bedroom, so we had to use fans which were provided and keep the door open to blow the air in.The spot down by the river is not private. I assume it was people from the other houses on the driveway that came down to use it.
