About this cottage rental
Stunningly designed Cottage on a private corner of a historic 108 acre farm. Situated on a scenic bluff overlooking the Shenandoah River and Blue Ridge Mountains this 'cottage' has a stone fireplace and wood beamed ceilings through the main floor. In addition to three covered porches (including one with a Hot Tub) there is a 34' second floor deck overlooking the river. Let's hear from our guests: "Wonderful birthday stay! Not our first time with Rolling River and hopefully not our last. Can't say enought about the location, comfort and amenities. Always make a lot of memories and look forward to coming back. Greatly appreciate the unique stays that the O'Reilly family has worked so hard to let us enjoy."
The main floor master suite has a king size bed, small sitting area and private full bath. On the second floor are two bedrooms: one has a queen bed and sitting area, and the second has two full size beds. There is a shared full bath, with a shower and deep, claw foot, soaker tub. There is access to the large upper deck, where there is seating for the whole gang, as well as an umbrella to keep things shady when necessary!
The kitchen is fully equipped with Kitchenaid, Blender, knife set, pots/pans, spices, serving platters (including a turkey platter for the holidays). The four barstools make it easy for the sous-chef to stay close and do all the peeling and chopping you need. The dining table seats 8 comfortably.
At river level, there is a multi-level deck (to be noted, the walk down the hill is a bit steep and there are 40+ steps to the deck) and floating dock right on the water. Perfect for boating fishing, swimming or just enjoying the sun and water.
The Overlook Cottage is a pet friendly property, so no need to leave your furry friends at home. A $25 fee per per/per night applies, payable directly to management on arrival.
There are numerous restaurants, shops, golf courses, wineries, National Parks (Skyline Drive, Shenandoah National Park, George Washington National Forest), hiking trails (Appalachian Trail), battlefields etc are literally ten to twenty minutes away. Then, of course- best of all, your own piece the Shenandoah River!
Please Note: We do not allow any events at the Overlook and we do have a rental agreement for our guests.

Very nice home with beautiful views. Walk to the river is a little steep, but worth it for floating around and kayaking.

The Overlook was the ideal spot for our annual mountain getaway. My family said I really nailed it this year! The cottage was gorgeous and had everything we could possibly need. We loved having so many different spaces, both indoors and outdoors, to unwind and soak in the beauty of the location. The river views were absolutely breathtaking. The setting is peaceful and private, yet still just a short drive from town and the National Park. The house is stocked with books, games, and puzzles, perfect for family time. I can't say enough good things about the house, the location, and our entire experience.

Absolutely loved our stay at this charming cottage on the Shenandoah River! The location is unbeatable — peaceful, scenic, and just steps from the water. We spent our days kayaking along the river and exploring the nearby hiking trails, which offered breathtaking views and a perfect mix of challenge and beauty. The cottage itself was cozy, spotless, and well-stocked with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. If you’re looking for a serene retreat with top-notch outdoor adventures, this is the place! Can't wait to come back.
