Photos and Description of the Harrisonburg vacation cabin rental
1 Bedroom (Queen Size) 1 Full Bathroom with 1 Queen size sofa bed

Dry River Cabin is cozy and comfortable. It is a rustic vacation rental cabin in the heart of historic Rawley Springs. The cabin is designed with knotty pine in the interior, and a screened in porch with a great view of the mountain on the exterior. The cabin has one bedroom with a queen size bed and a new fireplace insert (we provide the firewood too), full bath with claw foot tub, and a full kitchen with all the essentials: refrigerator, microwave, stove, and coffee maker and utensil and cookware. It also has a pull out queen sofa couch. All linens and comforters are washed after every guest. The cabin has access to fishing and trails for hiking or mountain biking. It is about 10 miles from Harrisonburg and Bridgewater, so you're only minutes away from shopping and dinning as well.

Beloved pets are welcome but we do require up to a $39 Pet Cleaning Fee because we wash the couch covers after every guest with pets stays at the cabin. There is also a Property Damage Protection Fee of up to $29 - $89 (depending on length of stay)

Rates will vary during peak and holiday seasons.

Dry River Cabin is a great place to see the stars. On clear nights, you can see thousands of stars overhead. It is a beautiful sight. Also during the spring and summer months, you can see humming birds everywhere. We place feeders off the front porch of the cabin and have personally seen upwards of 20 birds feeding on them at one time. The humming birds should be arriving in April. You don't want to miss them.

Check in time is 4:00 pm and checkout is 11 am

About Katie & Steven Robert Jones

I am a full time college student and my wife is a teacher. We moved to Virginia from Texas so I could finish my college degree. We have a daughter who is 3 who loves to go for walks and play at the cabin and an infant. We are down to 8 dogs now, and we have 3 cats. When we travel everyone gets to go along (pets included). Our pets love to be in the car as well as explore all of the trails here in Rawley Springs.

Katie & Steven Robert Jones purchased this cabin in 2011
Why Katie & Steven Robert Jones chose Harrisonburg

We bought this cabin because it was right next to our house, and we decided it would be a nice property to own. We love to spend weekends up there when the cabin isn't rented out.

A Wonderful Place!

5 of 5
Submitted: May 15, 2013 Stayed: May 2013
This cabin is a great place to stay in the Va. Mountains. The drive and the area were the cabin is located is beautiful. The cabin is very warm, cozy, quiet and romantic. A great place to relax, unwind, and enjoy all what nature has to offer. The species of birds you can see and observe are endless. The owners Stephen and Katie are great folks. They are both very accommodating and organized. The farm fresh eggs they provided made the best scrambled eggs. Despite the rain for our stay, we still had a great, great time. We look forward to our next stay there again. Thanks so much Stephen and Katie.

Wonderful Getaway and Time with our Family

5 of 5
Submitted: May 11, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
Very cozy, comfortable and homey cabin. We loved our relaxing and calm visit as a family before my husband left on deployment. It's just we needed and wanted. Enjoyed the peace, beautiful atmosphere, campfire, mountain views and hikes as well as a nearby lake. The hosts provided wonderful hospitality.....more like they were old friends. The property was well-maintained. Do expect the road leading up to the cabin to be very rural....difficult to maneuver the first time, but you get the hang of it after that (after a few tips from the host). Would definitely recommend.

Just What We Needed

5 of 5
Submitted: April 25, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
We booked our trip to Dry River Cabin to escape the long, wet and cold Canadian spring. Dry River cabin was everything we could have hoped for! The cabin is everything a cabin in the mountains should be. Rustic, cozy and most importantly, super clean.
The four of us and our two dogs still had room to move around. The screened in front porch was my favorite place to sit back and enjoy a cup of coffee. The master bedroom is so adorable it's beyond words!
Steven and Katie are wonderful hosts who answered all of our questions and made us feel very welcome. They even surprised us with a dozen fresh eggs from their chickens.
There is a path up the mountains that we walked the dogs up every morning and evening. Harrisonburg is only fifteen minutes away with shopping and dining options. We drove out to the Shenandoah Caverns and spent a couple of hours there. Definitely worth the forty minute drive there. Amazing caverns!
Our trip was too short and we fell in love with the cabin and the area more each day. We can't wait to go back and explore the area more next spring!

Thanks Steven and Katie!

My Favorite Mountain Cabin

5 of 5
Submitted: April 21, 2013 Stayed: July 2012
The cabin has a great front screen porch which provides a fantasic place to watch and listen to birds. Especially the hummingbirds. Wish it had been Winter so that we could have had a fire in the bedroom. I imagine the warmth of the fire would be very relaxing. It must be beautiful in the Winter with the snow. The kitchen had everything that we needed to cook. Steven and Katie are two very special people. We will definitely be back again.
