Vacation rentals with lake access in Shenandoah Valley

I stayed at this incredible house with my friend, and it was truly an amazing experience. The house was spotless, with everything perfectly organized and easy to find. Having rented at least 10 houses in the Mineral area, I can confidently say this one was the best by far. The cinema and jacuzzi were fantastic additions that everyone enjoyed. Not only did the kids have a blast, but the adults also had an amazing time. The deck with kayaks and stand-up paddleboards was exactly as described, and everyone had an amazing time using them. This house exceeded all our expectations and provided a memorable stay. Highly recommended!

I booked Travis' place for a work weekend with colleagues, and it was easy for everyone to find from the airport, with easy check-in. We were basically able walk right in and proceed with our weekend. Everyone had their own space in the house, with wonderful main rooms to gather in. We also had many meetings outside and even down on the dock as the weather was so beautiful, and to be right on the lake gave us the setting that we were imagining when we initially booked the space. On walk-in, the space was immaculately clean, everything laid out well and the kitchen was superbly stocked. The photos of the whole house are accurate. *We shopped before arrival on our way from the airport as the grocery store is a little ways away, but Travis provided us with excellent options, and always was quick to respond to any questions. Beds all had excellent mattresses and provided each of us with great sleeps. Check out was simple, instructions clear. A fabulous weekend and will book again.

Greg and Nicole were awesome hosts. They were very proactice and communicative. The house was well stocked with everything a guest might need, well beyond the essentials, which was very much appreciated. Our 3 kids loved the house and everything that was there just for kids (toys and books, nightlights, sound machine, etc.) They are already asking to go back, and we very well may book with Greg and Nicole again in the future.

Our family of 2 adults and 5 kids had a wonderful stay over Thanksgiving week. Watching the sunrises and sunsets on the lake was so peaceful and our kids loved playing outside! Private and beautiful scenery, especially with the late fall colors. We had everything we needed to cook and everyone slept great. Kids said they wished we had spent less time sightseeing and more time at the house so they could play in the backyard!

Tracy was very welcoming, informative and accommodating. She was very available if we had any concerns. We were planning a boat trip on the lake and she helped coordinate a boat rental that led to a lovely day on the water. Her mom is cozy and tidy and we felt very comfortable there.

Beautiful setting. Spacious home. We were short a sheet and comforter, Nicole responded and was at the house in under 10 minutes.

So Beautiful! So Peaceful! We enjoyed every second in this beautiful home, on a serene lake, surrounded by nature and love. Rachael was an amazing host. We were coming to town for a vow renewal ceremony. Rachael was responsive and super helpful when it came to logistics and flexible with the check-in, so we could get to the ceremony on time. The home was lovely and pristine! It had everything we needed to cook and have fun. The 2 decks and dock framed the lake beautifully. The kayaks were a big hit and all the board games kept us entertained. We loved our time in the home and on the lake! We would definitely book again!

We had a fantastic family vacation at Matt’s house. The space is beautiful — there are amazing views from every window and there was plenty of room for everyone to spread out and enjoy the home. The kitchen was well stocked and we had fun cooking elaborate meals. There were so many fun activities at the house — from the hot tub to shuffleboard — but there are also lots of great outings within easy driving distance. Matt was an incredibly responsive host who quickly answered any question we had. This was one of our best Airbnb experiences ever and we can’t wait to return!

Her place was very clean and felt like home. She was very well organized and things were very well stocked. She was very responsive when talking to her. We are definitely staying there again. It was a great stay and getaway.

A friend & I stayed to cycle & hike Harper's Ferry & the Shepardstown area of the C&O. The placed checked all our important boxes..very clean, nice shower with hot water, very comfortable beds & furniture, very quiet, strong wifi. Download Google maps directions to get there as you might loose your cell connection. Same if you travel the area..download while on wifi at the house. When I saw the vintage GE electric stove with push button controls I though...wow will this thing work! Yes it works great! It heated up my hot water for tea & oatmeal faster than any modern stove! We had a great stay and will definitely stay again.

Would highly recommend for a quiet, relaxing weekend. This was a repeat stay, and everything was just as nice as the last time. Quick communication with Gwendolyn was appreciated, and everything we needed was available or offered.

Staying with Mr Jane was a pleasure. The location was perfect, the apartment was cozy and spotless. The place was well-equipped and the beds were surprisingly comfortable. This is a peaceful downstairs apartment with private entry and beautiful backyard with swimming pool. Mrs Jane was always available to answer our questions. unforgettable experience! Highly recommended!" 

Very responsive was always willing to accommodate! Any question I had, he responded quickly and always had an answer! Very very clear and nice!

love the vibe of the place, from the nostalgia of the living quarters to the 50's themed soda shop. if you love to bake or like old fashion milkshakes, you can make them here. They have all the things to enjoy. Deer in the yard in the morning.

This was my second stay at Joe’s spot, and each time I’ve been super impressed with the room and the people. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Thank you for having me.

We had a wonderful stay. The place was nice and clean and fully stocked. Sean had very clear instructions. This was my first time in Richmond and this was a perfect spot to walk to many local restaurants and activities. Looking forward to visiting again. Linda & Bill

Good quiet place to stay near Harper’s Ferry. Place was clean, hot tub was nice we were able to watch deer next door and across the street hang out and graze. Everything was in place and clean. Beds were soft and comfortable. The only issue that I have is the rocks that line the driveway especially when turning out of the driveway will catch lower vehicles and cars it caused a little damage to my wife’s car and be careful where you park there is an oak tree with dead and rotting limbs that need to be trimmed that are right above the area where cars would park if you have more than one car. If I were to ever come back to Harper’s Ferry I would definitely stay there again.

Jennifer and Eric were very great hosts! The place was just as advertised. Jennifer was very responsive and had helpful recommendations. The family let our kids play in their backyard and on the trampoline which my kids loved. The treehouse is also a very nice touch for the kids, as is the heated floor in the bathroom for the grownups. It’s a beautiful area. Would definitely stay again!!

We enjoyed staying at Taby's place, it was very cozy with everything we needed! Taby was quick to respond to any questions that we had, we would love to stay again if we're ever in Virginia.

The highlight of this stay was the gorgeous beaverdam waterfall, but the cottage is also lovely - very charming and comfortable. You can tell that Beau has put a lot of thought into making the property welcoming, and when I had an issue with the wifi router, he and Leah were very quick to address the issue, even though it was late in the evening. My dogs and I did several wonderful hikes in the Washington and Jefferson National forest, and it was nice to be able to come back to such a comfortable and relaxing space afterwards.

The cabin is rustic and feels like it is miles away even though it is only 15 minutes or so from town. Very nice surroundings and cozy. The hosts are hospitable and very accommodating. We would stay again for sure!

What a fun long-weekend. We enjoyed the kayaks and we literally spent the whole weekend in the lake. We didn’t even mind that the water was cold, being early spring. The house is really clean and beds are comfortable. The kitchen has the basic necessities and we didn’t have any problem cooking all meals there. We will definitely be back.

Just like the pictures, this lakeside cottage is lovely. Great setting and views. Very nicely decorated and very well equipped. Susan was an outstanding host.

We had a wonderful stay at the cottage. The cottage is completely remodeled and provides a great space for a small family to interact and enjoy the lake. We had a mix of cooking on the Blackstone/kitchen and eating at some of the local restaurants on the lake. Christine and her husband were very friendly and accommodating. We had a wonderful week on the lake. We used paddleboards and rented boats and wave runners from the local marinas. Smores by the fire pit were a bonus!
