Rivergreen Cottage-"Off The Grid"-WALK TO RIVER!! Solar Powered!


Leave the complexities of modern life at home and enjoy the simplicity that our off the grid Rivergreen Cottage has to offer. Rivergreen is the perfect getaway for those who like camping, but wish for a more luxurious, comfortable place to stay.

Come and experience the natural beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains!

This cabin is located 10 minutes from Massanutten Resort and 20 minutes to the Swift Run entrance of Shenandoah National Park.

It is necessary to have front wheel drive or 4x4 in the winter to reach the cottage. The road to this cabin is not paved and is stone and dirt. Driving slow to reach the cottage is highly recommended. When there is snow on the ground, a 4x4 is necessary to reach the cottage. If you have a very low sitting vehicle, you may have issues getting to the cabin.

If you have mobility issues, renting this property would not be recommended.

Please note, this property is located on a working farm. While the cabin itself if fence in, you are likely to wake up to cattle outside, along with Duke the Donkey. The cattle will not try to approach you or your vehicle. Duke does like to eat out of your hand-after he gets over his shyness!

Additionally, this property is located in a town steeped in railroad history. Occasionally, you will hear trains. Please be sure to check out the train museum in the town of Shenandoah-just a short drive away.

As mentioned, this cottage is solar powered, with a back-up generator. This system is fully automated and requires no interaction from our guests. From time to time, especially when it's dark outside, the generator will turn on to recharge the batteries.

The cottage is small and cozy, perfect for a party of 2. The cabin will accommodate up to 4 guests, but can be very cozy.

Sleeping accommodations consist of a Queen Bed and a full sized futon.

Kitchen: Rivergreen has a small cooktop, mini-fridge, sink, coffee pot, cookware, dishware, soap and kitchen linens.

Living/Sleeping Space: Queen bed, and a full futon. Pillows and sheets are provided.

Bathroom: The bathroom has a stand up shower, sink and composting toilet. This is a water-less system. Please follow posted instructions. It is very important to note that a composting system is not like a "traditional" toilet with running water. Instructions are posted in the bathroom.

PLEASE NOTE! Due to the small size of this cottage, steam from the shower can trigger a false carbon monoxide alarm.

Additional Amenities: Gas grill, AC, wall heater, covered porch and private fire pit.

Note-electric vehicles cannot be charged at this property!
