Photos and Description of the Etlan / Old Rag Mountain vacation house rental Exceptional, Post & Beam, 4BR 3BA Luxurious Lodge with Loft, Decorated in So

Large, rustic, & luxurious are words seldom used together, but that's Spirit Dancer Lodge, a luxurious, energizing, rejuvenating, and ROMANTIC get-away far removed from the stresses of city life. We're on 60 private acres in the Blue Ridge Mountains of the Shenandoah Valley. We offer 4000 square feet of living space with queen beds in three of the four, spacious bedrooms with a soaking tub and shower in the master bedroom. A large, closed-in loft area has a king bed plus two twins. All rooms have large windows to let the outside in. The great room has a huge stone fireplace, dining room and kitchen, all open together and has floor to ceiling windows with prowl front and Brazilian cherry hardwood floors. There's carpet in the other rooms. Our hot tub, at the end of our extensive deck, is perfect for star gazing or wildlife watching. Downstairs, you'll find our sauna room (5 person) with queen-size futon, 18 foot stone bar, game room, exercise room and 62 inch dish satellite TV.

Amazing!!

Mike and Jodie Arlington, VA
Review Submitted: August 19, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
My wife and I, along with 4 other couples, spent last weekend here and had the best time ever! The house is large and roomy, with all the comforts of home. Everything from the large great room and the spacious kitchen to the huge game room and comfortable bedrooms made our stay one to remember. We BBQ'd on the deck every night, relaxed in the jacuzzi, and played card games on the large dining table. Everything was perfect, including the very short drive to Old Rag mountain....which is a must! Overall, a great weekend at an amazing house located in the beautiful Shenandoah Mountains.

We spent Memorial Weekend at this wonderful house. The house was
amazing and I must say that the pictures on the website does not do it justice.
Everything in the house was very well kept. We loved the sauna, hot tub and
ping pong table. I highly recommend this to anyone who's thinking about it. You won't be disappointed. Thank you so much for letting us rent your house.

We stayed at Spirit Dancer in February 2004. Our group of women enjoyed the retreat so much, we plan to go back this year. The views, home, hot tub, nearby hiking were all extraordinary. Thank you so much for providing a wonderful home for others to enjoy.

Guests at lodge 11/1-11/4/04. I cannot convey how blessed we feel to have experienced such an amazing home and vacation. So many things to do, such little time! The views from Skyline Drive - incredible. The peace and beauty all around Spirit Dancer Lodge - amazing!
This home is like staying at a 5-Star resort. Pristinely clean, beautiful native American decor, tons of games, amazing sound system/entertainment center that can be enjoyed from almost every room, amazing outdoor hot tub, sauna room, exercise room, trails and fishing pond and on and on and on! We felt so at home yet pampered beyond belief.
There are so many sights to see in the area and especially all the trails in Shenandoah National Park that feature panoramic views and many waterfalls. We even saw a very large bear and her two cubs while driving along Skyline Drive!!
We are thankful for the warm hospitality we received and the special memories that were made during our anniversary vacation at Spirit Dancer Lodge - memories that will last a lifetime. We will definitely be back!

We stayed in Spirit Dancer Lodge over New Years 2004. We came with our closest friends, and we had a spectacular time. We hiked, and explored the old ruins, and the old dirt road, had picnics on the hill-top (it was very mild weather), and really enjoyed the spectacular lodge. Thank you very much for providing us the opportunity to share your lodge. Sorry it took me so long to post this message. I thought I had done so before, but as I looked this time, I didn't see it.
