Other Details to Note

🚭 Strict No-Smoking Policy Smoking is not allowed anywhere on the property — indoors or outdoors. This ensures a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for all guests. If smoking is detected, a $250 fee will be applied. 🌱 Garden Bed Maintenance Some of the garden bed areas are temporarily covered as part of ongoing landscaping work to eliminate weeds. This is intentional and part of scheduled maintenance. 🪑 Barstool Seating Update One barstool is currently out of service due to a broken rung. There will be 3 usable barstools at the kitchen counter during your stay. To ensure comfort, there are also 10 dining chairs available at the dining table, so there is still plenty of seating. We truly appreciate your cooperation in keeping this space clean, fresh, and welcoming for everyone who stays here! Stay comfy and enjoy your stay!

This is the perfect house for a weekend getaway from DC. The house is charming and everything has been updated in a thoughtful way. We enjoyed the extra comfortable beds, warm showers, and long island for gathering in the kitchen. The location is convenient to downtown Luray and hiking along Skyline Drive. We hope to make this place our new fall tradition.

We really enjoyed our stay in this lovely home. It is close to downtown and 20 minutes from the Thorton Gap entrance at Shenendoah National Park. The home was very clean, organized and had a great kitchen and living area. The home had everything we needed and was tastefully decorated. The house is on a main road so you do hear cars going by but nothing that impacted our sleep. Chad and Rowena were very responsive and the check in/check out process was seamless.

We loved our little family reunion at the yellow farmhouse. It’s so convenient to everything. The house was clean, inviting/homey and had everything we needed. Everyone slept well and loved the peace and quiet at the home. The hosts were very helpful and quick to respond.

Our stay at Anne’s Retreat in Luray, Virginia was not only peaceful but felt just like stating at home. We initially were scrambling to find someplace further inland to vacation as a family of eight after Hurricane Erin flushed us out of Hatteras Island. We had only been staying at our rental in Avon for two days when the state issued a mandatory evacuation of Dare County. We were so crestfallen, having planned the perfect first vacation with the son’s-in-law. We finally decided to give Shenandoah and Virginia a try. Luckily, Anne’s Retreat was an option. Not only was it affordable in such short notice, but it was also the most attractive/charming option closest to the Natuonal Park and Luray Caverns. As soon as we stepped through the back door of the striking yellow rental, we were blown away. It had an antiquated charm that was accentuated by the tasteful mix of old and new furnishings and furniture in all of the rooms. We could not have asked for a better place to stay and recover!
