Guests must have access to a vehicle to reach the Bougie Bunker.

Please be advised this is a mountainous property. The main roads are paved but the private road on the property is hard-packed gravel. You may experience minor ruts, steep inclines and rough terrain. Most front wheel drive vehicles have no trouble accessing the property as long as you drive safely and slowly. During the inclement weather of the winter season such as snow or ice you may need 4 wheel drive or tire chains to get up to the property. We also recommend Travel Insurance during winter months.

Please note that we do not give refunds for road conditions that are out of our control. We recommend a 4 wheeled drive vehicle or a truck to access this property during the winter season.

Please note that due to the remoteness of this bunker, the cellular Wifi can at times be limited, slow, and/or intermittent. We are able to get Verizon cellular and data service on our phones pretty well most of the time in and out of the property. In the mountains, nature, books, your friends, and your family are your entertainment!

Super nice mountain vacation!

Really enjoyed the time here. It was clean, had everything we needed, comfy beds, and lots of lovely aesthetic touches. You're just remote enough to feel alone but close enough to civilization to be convenient. The location is great so close to the different caverns and all the hikes at Skyline Drive. We would definitely return.

Unique and “Bougie” Mountain Getaway

We absolutely loved this secluded mountain retreat. The accommodations were excellent and this place truly lives up to it’s “Bougie Bunker” name. Enjoy the seclusion of 45 acres, beautiful mountain views, and the tranquility of a forest setting. If you are looking for a unique getaway, I highly recommend you consider staying here.

Shenandoah 1/2 marathon

The property is amazing in all ways. Not only has the host thought of everything (smores kit, towels for the hot tub, interests in the area, corn hole, horseshoes, walking trails, board games, card games, toiletries, etc), the views & peacefulness were outstanding. We truly enjoyed the area for our son's 1/2 marathon in the Shenandoah. Great location for some much-needed family time.

Amazing place for a family getaway!

We had a wonderful time at the bunker! The property is beautiful and most interesting place we stayed so far. Very clean and welcoming, more fun than we expected. The porch with a mountain view itself would be enough to call it a great place to relax and chill. Add to it a well prepared bone fire place for evenings, with sky full of stars above, and you may need nothing more. Perfect base to visit nearby National Park, Luray caverns and more. We loved it!

The property is clean, quiet, and delightful. We stayed with our family and enjoyed being away from it all. The property is so well appointed. We enjoyed unplugging and spending some quality family time together. It’s a beautiful area! The bunker is so much fun! We enjoyed the extra touches, such as the s’mores kit!

Great Getaway Near Shenandoah!

We loved the unique house, and the proximity to Shenandoah National Park. We also enjoyed the fire pit, and the complementary S’mores kit. The house was extremely clean, and comfortable. I particularly liked the art work displayed. The kids loved playing horse shoes, and we all had a fun time playing Uno in the game area of the house. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience!

Quick birthday trip

Couldn't be happier with our pick. House was tucked away and private, very unique. Close to downtown luray. Had dinner at chop house bistro first night. Visited luray caverns next day. Grabbed sandwiches at west main market. The property is amazing. The home is even better. Views are incredible. Owners were very responsive. I'd definitely stay again. definitely visit again.

Quiet & peaceful

We stayed in the bougie bunker for 4 nights. The home has been beautifully updated, there was great attention to detail. Views were breathtaking. And the home is in close proximity to the areas attractions/ places to see etc. I will just add, that the cell service (for us) was very slow/ spotty, there was one good spot on the porch - otherwise we had to wait till we got to town to really connect/ call anyone.

Mountain Seclusion

This being our first escape to the Shenandoah Region we planned lots of outdoor adventures, from hiking the AT, river tubing, caverns, exploring quaint towns, and more. We were excited about the bunker, but nothing could have prepared us for the amazing experience. It’s nestled within the mountains and very secluded. We had a great time porch sittting and looking out on the mountains. The hosts do a wonderful job of making the bunker cozy and providing extras such as games, movies and s’mores for the fire pit. As much fun as we had exploring the region, we always looked forward to coming back to the bunker to relax. Thanks for a great stay!

Great Remote Get Away

This is a great property and host. We wanted a remote place to relax a bit and that’s what we got. There are places near enough at the bottom of the driveway (1/4-1/2 mile’ish) but nothing next to or above you. The views are of the mountain side across the little valley and relaxing. The inside is well appointed and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we need and the bed was very comfortable. Very clean. The hot tub is a bonus. The pictures are a very accurate description of the property. And the hosts were great. Very good communication. We had a great stay and would stay again for sure.

Great weekend getaway

My family and I had a great time at the bunker. It's absolutely a different experience than your average vacation home. The ambiance is nice a peaceful, plenty of land to explore, a hot tub and plenty of space for our family of 5. (note, we brought a toddler air mattress for our youngest however 2 kids could have fit in the lower bunk). The drive up is steep and bumpy, we made it up with a minivan and civic but if we stay again we'll rent a 4-wheel drive for peace of mind. Lastly, I had car trouble unrelated to the driveway... I'm just that lucky - however, Kevin and Jamie were beyond gracious, even gave us suggestions of tow companies and mechanics to try. We really appreciated them understanding during the unforeseen, stressful circumstance. All in all we had a great time and the owners are wonderful. It's a unique experience our whole family enjoyed.
