The Best Cabins to Rent in Virginia

Looking for rental cabins in Virginia? Do we have the Spot-sylvania for you! These Virginia cabins and cottages are within the Wilderness Presidential Resort. Two-bedroom units mean space for six to relax inside and out with home-sweet-home cozy wood floors and floral bedspreads. An inviting outdoor pool and a fitness center will give you those healthy vacation necessities, while the 10-minute walk to the Chancellorsville Battlefield and Hazel Grove Lake Boat Launch will get you out into the wilderness at a moment’s notice.

There’s a reason this cute wood-clad cabin near Stanley, gateway to Shenandoah National Park, caps the guest list at two. With no wifi or television, you and your favorite person in the world are free to disconnect in peace. When you’re not cozying up beside the gas fireplace, enjoy being outdoors on the wraparound deck, beside the charcoal grill or around the campfire. While you’re here, check out the Luray Caverns, a national landmark 10mi (16km) away, which will blow your mind with paved walkways among vast natural caves filled with giant stone columns and crystal-clear pools.

The banks of the Shenandoah River’s South Fork are yours to lap up from the back porch of this Luray cabin. Two bedrooms fill out this quiet space, though we think that leaving the extra bedroom empty makes it feel even cozier. When you’re not wrapping robes, towels or arms around each other, unpack your fishing, kayaking, canoeing or rafting gear and embrace the river. A crackling fire in the living room will welcome you back home and help you turn the heat back up.

You won’t have to trade time for tranquility at this riverside cabin. With the lightest of effort, you can find yourself lounging by the fireplace, snoozing in a deep soaking tub, strolling the garden or thumbing through a novel on the balcony. If you’re willing to put just the teensiest of energy into a historical hike, within 15 minutes you can walk to the Oak Grove Cemetery and House.

With the Skyline Caverns close by and the Dickey Ridge Trailhead practically leading to the lodge’s front door, Franklin Manor is an excellent basecamp for exploring the Shenandoah Valley. Well, it would be, if it wasn’t so warm and welcoming. You may find yourself spending hours playing pool, chatting at the kitchen bar or getting immersed in a book on the balcony. The single bedroom isn’t a reason to leave the kids at home; they won’t mind couching it with full control over the clicker.

It may not be the famous Woodstock, but this four-bedroom beauty near Virginia’s Woodstock invites you to rock out with nine of your friends. Mountain views and riverside relaxation await, as do nearly four acres (1.6ha) of outdoor space where you can relax. Two Old Town Discovery canoes are ready for a glide down the waterway if you are. Prefer to stay dry? Plant yourself in a living room seat surrounded by windows and sip a mint julep while the critters carry on right outside.

There’s no shortage of warmth at this Luray getaway. While many cabins in Virginia will make you choose between a hot tub or a fireplace, this two-bedroom cabin in the Shenandoah Valley gives you both. Despite being packed with amenities, this cabin is tiny, proving that you don’t need a mansion of space to live large. Six can sleep comfortably here, even more so after an afternoon tasting wine at nearby Wisteria Farm and Vineyard, 3mi (5km) away on the slopes of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
