A place that combines the beauty of the natural world with the warmth of a modern cabin. Located on 50 acres or protected land along the historic Shenandoah River, Walden offers one of the most spectacular retreats in the valley. Amenities include: \* 4 Person Hot Tub \* Wifi \* 10x26 covered porch \* Fully equipped kitchen \* 50" Smart TV w/ Chromecast \* Fireplace with Electric Logs \* Outdoor fire pit \* Charcoal Grill \* Pets Welcome ($25 per night pet fee) \* 150 yard walk to river along path through the field \* 7 Miles north of Luray, VA. \* 20 Minutes to Shenandoah National Park \* River access area with picnic table, chairs and fire pit (The riverfront is solely for the use of our guests at Walden and Sundance, {VRBO#385043} Although Sundance and Walden share the riverfront, the two cabins are completely private from one anther.)

Great spot to take your dogs for a walk and unwind by the river. Perfectly located between Lurray & Front Royal. Cabin has everything you need to relax and get away from life for a bit. Property is clean, well maintained, and help is only a message away if you should need assistance. They even have a river walk set up for the guests to help you unwind and enjoy the views along the Shenandoah river. In my opinion this property deserves more than 5 stars! ##### Jereimy F.

I returned in 2021, 2022 and now in 2023. I like the chill and quiet of December for each trip. My dog and I love our thrice-daily walks to the river, and the hot tub is so relaxing before bed, breathing in the 35 degree air while poaching in the 100 degree water. And the millions of stars to be seen, far from the city lights. The cabin is just perfect for me. Spotlessly clean and nicely laid out. The kitchen could use a few more Corningware-type casseroles for heating up leftovers, though. Derek was immediately responsive when I had trouble negotiating the TV settings or with a few other questions, as he has been in the past. Looking forward to hopefully returning in December 2024! ##### Neal H. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Diane B.

Stayed 4 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dawn E. May 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Private & Relaxing The main thing I want people to know is how private this property is. It is accurately listed, comfortable bed, nice shower, kitchen was equipped with almost everything (needed a potato masher and one or two more mixing bowls would be great), and the property itself is so soothing, quiet, and relaxing. Many properties say they are private, but when you get there you realize you are facing another house or someone’s backyard or business, but this place offers ultimate privacy. ##### Dawn E.

Everything was about as perfect as it could be. Would definitely recommend. ##### stewy m. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael B. Mar 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Location The stay was very pleasant. Everything was very clean including the outdoor furniture! Be sure to bring your own bedding. Luray is about 15 minute drive with some shops, and a Walmart for last-minute items. Recommend and would visit again. ##### Michael B.
