~Family & Pet Friendly Mountain Retreat~ Steam Shower~ 5 minutes from lake!

Nestled on a beautiful, wooded hillside overlooking the Shenandoah Valley, is the getaway cabin you’ve been looking for!Take in the sunsets over the Shenandoah Valley from the beautiful deck or from the cozy sunroom. This cabin has everything you need to rest, relax, and reconnect with family. It’s perfect for couples, small families, or individual work trips.

Connect with nature as many deer and other wild life often wonder right up to the front door. If you love history, antiques, and excellent local restaurants, the cabin is a quick twenty minute drive to historic Harpers Ferry. Do you prefer the excitement of thundering hooves and cheering crowds? Charles Town Races are a quick 20 minutes as well. Is hiking, biking, rafting, and tubing up your alley? With the Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers converging, the Appalachian trail crossing, and 4000 acres of the Shenandoah national park, you could enjoy a different adventure every day of the week.

This mountain top getaway also sits just up the road from Mountain Lake Club, where you will find live music, good food, beach lake access, and plenty of summer fun.

The Cabin at Alta Vista is Pet Friendly. See policy below.

MOUNTAIN ROADS: In the event of snow, 4 wheel drive may be necessary. The roads up to this cabin are steep and narrow at times.

We loved this cabin! It was clean and welcoming. Clean sheets and towels provided was nice so we didn’t have to pack extra. There were directions for everything you needed (keurig, thermostat, steam shower, tv, etc). Amazing views in the winter. We enjoyed sitting in the sunroom and watching the wildlife. The supplies for our dog were appreciated and the games kept us entertained in the evening. Would highly recommend!

Hard to beat! Scenic surroundings from a tranquil and warm home. Close enough to Harper’s Ferry for a trip in to take in the surroundings or pick up some food from some of the many great local establishments. Hard to beat waking up and sipping coffee as you watch deer and other animals forage below, especially after enjoying a great nights sleep post stream shower!All the “little things” were thought of by the host. Great home!

Wonderful Weekend Getaway

This property was quite wonderful. Nice and quiet. An abundance of wildlife visited while we were there. Deer with their babies chipmunks, plenty of birds. I even had a coyote run across the backyard. The property was literally 20 minutes from everywhere. A nice added touch was that there was only TV in the bedrooms. The sun room and deck were great to just sit and relax. Highly recommend booking this property if you just want to get away for a weekend wind down

Great House, Great Views

99% positive things to say about this place. The views, the kitchen, the beautiful room facing down the mountain was our favorite room to do things.The mattresses are a little too forgiving. We prefer stiffer mattresses than were provided. And the drive up, if not used to driving up a mountain, was a bit terrifying the first time. But you get used to it. Sort of.Enjoyed our stay and would stay again if we decide to spend time in the area again.

Secluded rocky home

The home is situated up several narrow, winding roads. I don't recommend finding it in the dark. The rain shower shower-head is wonderful, but the shower size is too big for the room. There is no room for toiletries @ the sink. A luggage shelf would be helpful. There are no grocery store nearby. Bring your food with you.
