20 Shenandoah Cabin Rentals to Book Right Now

It’s hard to beat a long weekend in a beautiful cabin that’s a stone’s throw from Shenandoah National Park and miles of trails along Skyline Drive.

There are rental cabins all across the Shenandoah Valley with access to wineries, breweries, and of course, nature, wildlife and great hiking. Hot tubs, too.

Shenandoah Cabins

When in-park lodging options are closed for the season, including Big Meadows Lodge and Lewis Mountain cabins, private cabins are a great option.

Here are 20 comfy cabin rentals available on Airbnb. Ranging from rustic to luxurious, these cozy cabins are a fantastic way to revel in nature.

#1: Blue Moon Log Cabin (Luray)

It’s easy to relax at Blue Moon Log Cabin, which is located in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley. Watch the sun set or take a soak in the hot tub. 

It’s an easy walk to the Shenandoah River, as well as to outfitters in Luray if you want to rent a canoe or kayak, even inflatable tubes, to get out on the water. 

This two-bedroom cabin sleeps up to six guests. It’s also an easy drive to local attractions, like world famous Luray Caverns. 

#2: Bearloga (Stanley)

This mountain view cabin near Luray is a short drive from Shenandoah National Park, allowing easy access to Central District hikes, like Hawksbill Summit.

#3: Hobbit House (Shenandoah)

I had no idea this Hobbit House existed, but I’m so glad I found this whimsical stay on Airbnb. It’s not exactly a cabin or a cottage, but it is so adorable.

According to the description, this is where the hobbits vacation when in the “Virginia Shire.” Up to four hobbits (even human guests) can stay inside. OMG.

#5: Hobbit-Style Cabin (Broadway)

It’s hard to believe that Virginia has not one, but two, hobbit cabins (maybe more). This one is mostly underground, so it’s listed as an earth house.

Tucked away in the Blue Ridge Mountains, this one-bedroom cabin is a wildly unique getaway. Notably, this stay was also hand-crafted by the owners.

Look for first-rate amenities, like a waterfall shower and heated floors. As a bonus, you’ll find waffle mix and maple syrup.

This quiet one-bedroom cabin sits on 1.5 acres at the confluence of Black Run and the Dry River in Rawley Springs. It’s ideal for hiking, fishing or relaxing.

When the windows are open, listen for the faint sounds of a train whistle from this one-bedroom cottage.

Six guests can comfortably sleep in this cozy cottage that is both family-friendly and dog-friendly.
