LINENS & TOWELS Guests are asked to bring their own sheets & towels, which most guests are happy to do. However, if you prefer to travel lighter, we’re happy to provide fresh linens & towels for a small additional fee. Just let us know in advance & we’ll gladly have everything prepared for your arrival. ACCESS Mountain Moonshine is located on a mountain & accessed by a gravel road. While the road is well-traveled & maintained, it is steeper & different from typical flat, urban roads. AWD or 4WD is strongly recommended, especially during periods of heavy rain, snow, or ice. Vehicles with higher clearance perform best. That said, many guests have successfully reached the cabin in standard sedans by maintaining steady speed - turning off traction control can help in some vehicles as well. If you're not familiar with mountain roads, there is no need for concern — just take your time & drive carefully. The journey up is part of the experience & the panoramic mountain views from the cabin make it truly worthwhile! BOOKING MINIMUM • A 3-night minimum stay is required during holidays & peak dates.

Nov 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy I’d give them 4.5 stars out of 5 but I rounded up. Everything was great overall! Just be mindful of a few things: you have to pay for linens which ran us about 20 per bed. We didn’t catch it initially on the description of the property.The power did go out (no inclement weather) but it was back on in a couple hours and the host was very responsive when it came to this. If you’re thinking about door dashing, we did it once and had plenty of options. The WiFi was solid for streaming on the Roku, but it’s not ideal otherwise. It was laggy just to scroll instagram and it was faster when we used our mobile data. The hot tub was great but know that the view shown on the listing is being blocked now by some vegetation and small trees growing. All in all, a great quiet getaway! ##### A R.

The views from the cabin are as good or better than many on the Appalachian Trail or other nearby trails and parks, and the cabin itself was well appointed. The hosts were great and very prompt with communication. The road and driveway to access the property are gravel and somewhat steep, but I didn't feel like we needed high clearance or 4 wheel drive at any point (in good weather). I would definitely stay here again. ##### Brian S. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jon W.

Mar 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Price for view = rugged drive Although the listing recommends 4WD, that, to me, should be featured more prominently. The view from the home is spectacular, but guests should be acutely aware that the price is a rugged, steep drive. The home is nice and roomy; the exterior could use a little boost. Overall it was a lovely getaway. ##### Jean S. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle T.

I would agree with the owner that a 4 wheel or all wheel drive is necessary to get to the house. The only bad part was that my stay was way too short. 😊 ##### Michelle T.

The interior was so much more than we expected. It was comfortable, gorgeous, and just what we needed as a haven. The porch area is where we spent most of our time. The views were magnificent. We sat there and stared at sunrise, sunset, and the stars. I’m fact, we could faintly see the Milky Way. If I have my way, we will be back. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kristen P.

The house was not as clean as I would have hoped for the price point.. The road leading up to and the driveway is no joke! The best part about the cabin was the incredible view, absolutely amazing. Overall, we most likely would not stay again. ##### Kristen P. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Angela B.

Great for morning coffee! The driveway was a little tough for my front wheel drive car so would recommend you state that AWD or 4WD a necessity. Even though we had no issues, there was not a # to contact the property manager on your information sheet in the cabin. May want to add that. Otherwise, a great time was had by all :) ##### Angela B.

The pictures do not do it justice! Our favorites are the wide open view of the mountains (great for sunsets & stars), the huge balcony/deck to sit on an enjoy the peacefulness & the view, and of course the pool & hot tub! The cabin itself is very clean & well-stocked, especially the kitchen! I've never stayed at a cabin that had so many things in the kitchen for us to use! We loved the panini press! The ambience, decorations, furniture, showers are all thoughtful, well taken care of, and make you feel right at home. I've already booked another week here because of how blown away we were with it all! I didn't want to leave! Thank you Charles! It means a lot to us that your shared this "little slice of heaven" with us! ##### Emily G. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Danielle S.

My husband and I stayed the weekend of Oct 13-16th, 2023 for our anniversary and LOVED IT!! We even liked it better than Gatlinburg, TN! Everything was as described in the listing, especially the great views and spacious, clean cabin! We hope to return with our kids next time possibly in the summer so we can go in the pool. We spent most of our outing's in Rileyville and Luray, which wasn't a far drive at all. It's a nice remote location with no visible neighbors. The drive up to the cabin is no joke! Heed the warnings and bring a 4 wheel drive vehicle! I'm so glad we took our 4x4 mid size truck & not my AWD Chevy Equinox (because I think it would've struggled).. The only few drawbacks are no closets or coat racks downstairs for coats & the jets in the hot tub weren't too strong.. ##### Danielle S. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lara D.

We had an amazing weekend hanging out in the pool and hot tub and grilling with the incredible view always in sight. The house was nice and clean, and fit well for our group. The bed in the living room was a little funny. Luckily our group was all close and very comfortable with each other, so it wasn’t a big deal. They also provided a little privacy screen to put up which was great (a second one would have been good though). I was a little nervous about the driveway based on other reviews and I stand by their reviews. The driveway is no joke, very steep, but the road leading up to the driveway was also a bit rough. My Subaru Impreza did well, but going slow to avoid pot holes was necessary to not bottom out on the road leading up to the driveway. The view at the top was worth it though! Over all it was an incredible place and I would go back! ##### Lara D. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kath B. Sep 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We had an amazing stay at this beautiful cabin in Rileyville! The location was absolutely perfect—quiet, peaceful, and close to everything we wanted to do. The cabin itself was spotless, cozy, and well stocked with everything we needed. The hot tub was the highlight—perfect after a day of exploring, and it made our evenings so relaxing. We couldn’t have asked for a better getaway spot and will definitely be coming back! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8f29e5c7-a418-4151-9c1f-ab453cc5ff81-1759164277894.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Kath B.

Nov 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The house was a perfect setup for our group & we had a great weekend. The only issues are that we did not anticipate needing to bring our own can opener or spatula - those items seem like they should be provided. Also, consider providing linens. Our friends did not have king sheets, so we had to provide for all. I imagine there are plenty who do not have king beds at home. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/968ebc66-92d6-4f2c-9522-44557a580ba5-1763556141698.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ba174d4f-d8e4-4907-ad0e-0d7697f6eb62-1763556141841.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Tracey M.
