Great house, close to Caverns!
Well kept home, everything you need in the kitchen, close to the Caverns. The host were wonderful, replied to any messages I sent very fast, only thing I would change about this house would be a blind or curtain in kitchen window and covering over the front glass door but that wouldn't stop me from renting this home again if I was to return to the area. Thanks for making my stay a wonderful one!

Cutest house
This house was perfect for our stay in Luray. It was very clean, well furnished and the home decor was very tasteful. The process of checking in was super easy and Tyler was a wonderful host! Super helpful with the property but also with any recommendations needed! Highly recommend.

Lovely midcentury vibe
Had a quick weekend stay in this well cleaned, updated home in Luray. Everything was super easy-finding the location, parking, gaining entrance, as well as the departure. The neighbors are far enough away that we didn't worry about being too loud or vice versa. The home is nice and close to town. We were able to walk to a brewery with a food truck. It was also nice to have an enclosed area in the back yard for our dog to roam. The front porch is a great place to enjoy coffee in the a.m. Beds were comfortable, easy sleeping. Simply put, it's a clean, comfortable place to stay for a small group. The owners were easy to work with. We really appreciated their super quick responses to our questions. I actually would give them a plus plus for being so nice and accommodating. After we left (and had done a once over), they found our daughter's iPad that she left, and mailed it to her that very day. We are VERY grateful for their kindness. No comment on my daughter who loses things a lot more than we care to admit.

Great place by the caverns
We stayed as a family of 4 for a quick getaway and this was a great place. It is very clean and well decorated and the mattresses were SO comfortable, which we really appreciated. It was well stocked and had what we needed. It is also conveniently located close to town and the caverns. The hosts were very responsive. We would definitely stay again.

Mostly GREAT, but you failed on Handicap accessible which made the stay problematic.
The fact that front and back door had no hand rails made getting in house near impossible, no hand rails in bath tubs, to get in and out had to use neighbors drive and hike across grass and mulch. that is the reason for some low ratings. House.. Super, love the decorating, kitchen well ,equipped, very nice furniture, I am not a fan of foam mattresses, but for one night it was OK. I would rate most everything a 4+ or a 5, except the accessability. which was a 2. I partially blame Vrbofor not insisting on handicap acc. I dislike Vrbo and will go back to Booking. com which insists on meeting State lodging laws.
