Luray is well known for the Luray Caverns and the Singing Tower, and here you have them both within walking distance! Walk out of the door - and you are looking at the Singing Tower! Come out of the door and turn right, walk 3 minutes down the country road, and you will come across a pond where you can sit, fish, or stroll. Continue across the highway for another 3 minutes, and you will be at the entrance of the Luray Caverns, with its caves, stalagmites, stalactites and much more. Children and adults alike will enjoy the Caverns Car museum, gift shop, outdoor mountain climbing activities and Hedge Maze! Come out of the house and start walking to your left past the church, and you’ll find a great little place that serves alcohol and amazing burgers. Hop in the car, and drive 30 min to Harrisonburg, for those needing to attend James Madison University events.

You have two porches to use, a screened in upper porch, a favorite for those who love the feeling of being outside, even a great place for little ones who want to « camp out », but with the safety of being in the house, and on the same level as three bedrooms. You also have a meet and greet porch, on the first level, with rocking chairs that encourage you to sit and relax. This summer, we added a large Saltwater Hydromassage Hot Tub, with a waterfall, lights, and so many soothing, massaging jets along the floor, and from thr upright and reclining positions, your body will be rejuvenated! No mater what porch you choose, this house gives you PRIVATE SEATING, to each and every Singing Tower Live Performance! No need to drive, park, or even walk, just enjoy from your own porches! (Performances run on the weekend around 2pm!) The Deck and screened in porches have comfy seating, (chaise lounge, L shaped couch, love seat, wrought iron rocking chairs, Cracker Barrel Rocking Chairs, etc). On the deck, you’ll find a copper wine rack/ice bucket and serving tray, allowing you to sip while you enjoy the country air! Warm lights are strewn across the spacious backyard, which has numerous places for eating, sitting, playing, enjoying the fire pit and more. In the yard, you’ll find a weather ready Wooden Corn Toss Set, or feel free to hop on one the bikes and take a country ride!
The kitchen is filled with all you need to feed a family or your group of friends. The cupboards are stocked to include blenders, Calphalon pots, pans, casserole dishes, serving trays, pitchers, wine glasses, roasting pots, baking pans, skillets and more. A Keurig Coffee maker, and a standard coffee maker (for purists☺️), for our beverage station stocked with a few treats, K-cups, and mini creamers- are both available to suit your needs. The kitchen was remodeled in 2023 and now includes a garbage disposal, dishwasher, and microwave country kitchen table with plenty of seating. 2023 also welcomed a new refrigerator & stove! Kitchen expands through the door where you will find more new appliances, and extra large load Washer and Dryer, and shelves & drawers full of more appliances- & videos to pop in the DVD players!

Take 20 steps from the front door, and you will find that you are approaching what is known as the « Cave Field », referred to lovingly by us locals as the « Cay Field ». This is the area that surrounds the Singing Tower with 1700 era bricks/stones. The children and adults alike in our family, have spent many days walking and skipping along the stones that surround that field, so enjoy! You’ll notice that people meet up for lunch, or just come to sit in their cars for a spell, taking in the beauty and serenity of the Cave (locals say Cay field) field.

If you come out of the house and turn left, you’ll hit Main Street. Within a 5-10 min leisurely stroll, you will encounter an open air Brewery, and in another 10-15 minutes, you will be in the heart of downtown Luray with its shops, wine bars, boutiques, eateries, art houses, coffee shops, ice cream spots and even a VERY SMALLa completely unique movie theatre- don’t miss it! (It’s all decorated in red velvet, Italian statues, gold fixtures!) Luray has seasonal festivals, so check the brochures by the window to see if you might arrive in time to enjoy one. The walk downtown might take 20- 30 minutes, or just drive and park along the street.

One of our favorite places to walk is around the Greenway. Grab a coffee and take a free walk along the River. Take in the nature and wildlife, and maybe the sunrise or the sunset. There are often live performances at the bridge along Main Street during the summer, and fall, so be prepared to be entertained!

Looking for something a little more adventurous? Great! In summer or spring, take a tube, kayak or canoe down the river! There are 2-3 spots in town that offer river activities such as tube trips, fishing trips, canoe trips and more! The sign ups are pretty simple, they give you a time, a life jacket and off you go!

If your adventurous side is more focused on land, then there are horses to ride, and ATV trips through the mountains that offer beautiful, unspoiled views, mixed with a little adventure. Not to mention the GOLF! The views alone make golfing in this area a treat for all who love the sport, or just love riding around in the carts. (If you do this, you should plan in advance, as they book up quickly!)

If you enjoy spirits - they are everywhere! Walk out the door, turn left and left again at the main road- walk 5min to cocktails, spirits and amazing burgers at the Blue Shepard! Wineries are all around, just choose your poison!

Now, for the bedrooms and the bathrooms. The first floor contains a master bedroom with a double bed, dresser and armoir, Smart Roku TV. This suite comes with a private master bath with walk in shower. Also on this floor is the living room with xfinity TV, the second full bath (walk in shower), the eat in kitchen, the reading nook, the laundry area and the backyard multi level deck! So many places to sit/sun/nap/eat/play games & soak in Hot Tub while you watch a movie!

Up the staircase, you will find three bedrooms and the screened-in porch.

The first bedroom you will encounter is the smallest, with a twin bed(extra bedding under bed), dresser, Smart Roku TV, nightstand and window seat with a lovely view. The next bedroom has a double bed, dresser, Smart Roku TV and window looking onto the screened in porch and Cave (Cay)field. The third bedroom is the largest, with a double bed, nightstand, with a pull out twin trundle bed, armoire, and XFinty TV with Roku Smart TV. Off the hallway between bedroom one and two, is a door that leads to the upstairs, screened-in porch with a sectional patio couch and a Chaise Lounge. Although this is NOT a bedroom, our family has always had members that loved grabbing a sleeping bag and sleeping on the porch. It was the first we knew of « glamping »! We could see the stars, hear the country sounds of the night, but not worry about wild animals or insect bites! (Again- we keep a few blow up mattresses in the closet, just in case you decide to try it.☺️)
**Also, we have installed a security camera on the back porch, HOWEVER, it is NOT to monitor you! We want you to feel comfortable, and your privacy is of our utmost concern! Therefore, you will find the camera is OFF from your arrival to your departure, as indicated by a red light on the camera. (The light is green, when the camera is on.) The camera is there to monitor the house - BUT ONLY WHEN no guests are present!
Come and enjoy your privacy in this country setting with an unbeatable location & relaxing amenities! The Valley awaits you, and we welcome you! 🌻
