Thankful for a getaway!
We booked Jewell Hollow for a last minute Thanksgiving trip to Luray. It did not disappoint. The kids were happy to be outside exploring during the day and inside with fooseball and TV/internet connections. We will be back.

This rustic cabin was locate very close to the Shenandoah NP entrance and not too far from the town of Luray. It is an old but charming cabin. It has some modern amenities such as internet, cable TV, and air conditioning units throughout the house. However, there was no dishwashing machine or washer & dryer. The biggest negative experience in this place was that we found lots of bugs in one of closest (the one in front of the 2nd floor bathroom) and started to claw into the bedrooms. I have to use the bug spray that I found in the kitchen area to get rid of the bugs. I guess it was spring time and we were in the middle of the wood, bugs are expected. Anyway, overall we enjoyed our stay...especially when we lighted up the fire place and enjoy a game or two with the family... :-)

Home away from home
Family had a great time. Enjoyed the pond even though fish were few and small. Arrowhead lake is very close by.

Location is perfect
This cabin is very close to the park. Super easy to access skyline drive and hiking. Also convenient to run into luray for staples or to tour the caverns. The house is spacious and really sleeps 9. Often vrbo like to count couches or air mattresses - not here. Two queens one double and 3 singles. The house had everything we needed amd it was really nice to have a place that welcomed our dogs. We did put forth a valiant effort at catching fish but they were not cooperative. It was quiet and peaceful! Renters should note that while they have window units in the bedrooms which keep them plenty cool at night, the rest of the cabin does not have air conditioning. Some days the breeze and fans were enough to make it comfortable. But when it got 90 and humid it was pretty stuffy. You should just know that ... if you are going during summer.months.

Great getaway
We had a great Mother's Day retreat at the Jewell Hollow Homestead. The cabin was in great condition, and you could tell a lot of love and care has gone into it over the years. It is full of family photos, which makes you really feel like you're an invited guest in someone else's home. 7 minute drive from Skyline Drive. Having WiFi was a nice bonus too.

We absolutely loved this property! The pond had so many small creatures like fish, frogs, and salamanders that my children spent hours exploring and learning (we were able to see frog eggs, tadpoles in various stages, and two frogs mating) the row boat allowed us to explore further, and one night we went out on the boat to look at the stars. This property is extremely close to the Thornton Gap entrance to skyline drive, so it was easy to get to hikes and attractions in Shenandoah. The property itself had everything we needed- there was no internet or cell reception, but that encouraged us to unplug and spend quality time as a family.

Summer weekend in Luray
Great location for access to the skyline drive, Sperryville and Luray. Nice quiet setting with a fun little pond to cast a line into.

Exactly what you need!
This property was put there to provide wholesome wonderful experiences. Not only do you feel as comfortable as you would in your own home, its as if what you need just appears! There were no disappointments. I made jam from the property - even used the crab apples as a natural pectin. Your pretty secluded in the mountains but a hop skip and long jump to Luray.
