So Much to Do
• Canoe/ Kayak/ Raft – Do you know? Front Royal is the Canoe
Capital of Virginia! Rent or bring your own.
• Skyline Drive- Hiking and biking is great, but you can also just
DRIVE. Lots of places to stop and picnic.
• Stargaze- The night sky comes alive at our cabin in the woods.
• Sit and Stare- The Mountain View is ever changing with the
weather and seasons. It is always a good time to sit and stare. We
do not have water access, but we have a great view of the
Shenandoah River in late fall and winter. You can hear the water
flowing from the cabin.
• Fire pit with wood provided- Nothing like a good Kumbaya at the
end of a perfect day.
• Wine- Lots of wineries within 30-40 minutes of the cabin.

yearly.

fan.

courses. $-$$$.

some bird seed. Lots of marked bird watching trails are close by.

vacation, your choice.

Noteworthy stuff

everything you will need to call it home for the short time you are
here.
• It may seem a world away, but our cabin is really very close to
everything. 15-30 minutes away from Skyline Drive, wineries,
caverns, hiking, biking, golf, antiquing, history, festivals and so
much more.

- "A beautiful spot, senic, peaceful, and quite. The back roads on the way there after the main road ends definitely required 4 wheel drive but the drive was totally worth it. The hot tub is perfection and the sitting spot at the top of the hill has an amazing view of the property." - "Perfect anniversary weekend nook with our dogs, unforgettable! It was a little noisy with lawn mowing and gunfire all day Saturday in the background, but we didn't mind and appreciated the woods for what they are worth, just relating our experience...wouldn't have changed a thing! thanks, Fosmires"

The house could not have been more perfect, it was warm and cozy and allowed us to spend quality family time together. My family loves history and this farm house and property is loaded with just that. We loved the way you have restored it allowing the history to show through yet updating it at the same time.'

- "House was very comfortable and large. Plenty of places outside to sit and enjoy the views. We had a restful weekend." - "This home and property were absolutely beautiful. The home was very clean and had everything we needed. My siblings and our families enjoyed our time so much. We kayaked, hiked, canoed, relaxed in the amazing hot tub and played air hockey in the rec room. We also visited nearby Shenandoah National Park. Our dogs also had a wonderful time and the room to run and play fetch and walk was immense! What wonderful memories for us to share for a lifetime. 💓"

- "The pictures don’t do it justice. Can’t wait to go back!!" - "The property is beautiful, rustic, modern and cozy! We loved the fire pit, hot tub and amenities. Our pup loved it too! So many things to sniff during his walks. The communication with the owner was seamless and the place was incredibly clean. We plan to come back as often as possible! *This property is an easy drive from the Northern Virginia area." - "The property that you see in the pictures is actually even nicer in person if you can believe that. The thought and attention to detail that went into designing the nest is amazing, it took some real talent to mix modern and rustic and pull it off in such a stunning fashion. Julie is an amazing communicator, responding to our messages immediately (no exaggeration, it was like it is was in real-time). The directions for getting to the house and accessing everything we needed were crystal clear and recommendations for places to visit were spot-on. The views are astounding and the drives to and from the wineries (especially in the fall as leaves were turning) was one of the highlights of our trip. There are hiking trails nearby and more wineries than you will be able to visit in one trip. We couldn't be happier with the experience at the Nest, highly recommended."

Great mirrors in bedrooms to help us all get ready. Very clean and pretty. Would be happy to stay again." - "Communication with the owner was easy and convenient. The cabin is located on a secluded mountaintop which provided some peace and quiet. We took full advantage of the hot tub every night during our stay. The location met our needs as it was an easy drive into the D.C. area and allowed us to explore Shenandoah National Park. We were also able to head into Front Royal and Strasburg to enjoy dinner at several local restaurants. The open kitchen and living served as a good area to gather and share meals. A little more table space to share meals together would be nice. The bedrooms were comfortable. Again one minor suggestion would be some additional window coverings to keep the morning sun out. Overall we did enjoy our time and look forward to returning to the area."

A secluded neighborhood in the heart of Shenandoah Farms, with access to the Shenandoah River just at the bottom of the mountain (with parking lot and boat put-in too). There are two convenience stores within a 5 minute drive of the home, and you can be at the Ashby Inn (reserve early!) in 13 minutes, Hunter's Head Tavern in Upperville in 25 minutes, or downtown Front Royal in 25 minutes too.

Getting Around:
To the right on Howellsville Road, you can be in Winchester in 30 minutes, Upperville in 25 minutes, Middleburg in 35 minutes and Front Royal (downtown) in 25 minutes.

Other Things to Note:
ON 8 PRIVATE ACRES!! Almost no one else is visible... just you and the sprawling valley view in front of you, including the Shenandoah river from one side of the vista to the other, sunsets over the ridge every night and deer in your front yard each morning!

Here are some of our favorite things to do when we're not just enjoying the hot tub, grilling and eating on the deck or lounging by the fireplace:

HIKING SKY MEADOWS STATE PARK:
Just around the corner, about a 13 minute drive from the house is Sky Meadows State Park, with several trails and great views there.

DINING AT A HISTORIC INN:
The Ashby Inn is next to Sky Meadows, in Paris, VA. It dates back to the Revolutionary War and has food that is to die for. (BOOK EARLY)

CANOEING/KAYAKING/TUBING THE SHENANDOAH: They call Front Royal the Canoe Capital of America, but it is fantastic for kayaking and lazy river tubing too! There are two great companies nearby that can arrange a float, or bring your own equipment and use the put-in just at the bottom of the mountain, free for residents and guests of our neighborhood.

EXPLORING HISTORIC TOWNS:
Just around the other corner is Millwood, a lovely town with a fantastic market (Locke Market), beautiful restaurant (the Buttery), both across from an old Mill with picnic area and a waterfall. 20 minutes down the other direction is Upperville, with the Hunter's Head Tavern, with great food and great prices too! Just past Upperville is Middleburg, a super quaint town with its own distillery, plus markets, ice cream shops and even a tasting room nearby (Boxwood).

And, duh.... DRINKING WINE:
Route 17 connects 50 and 66 (exit 23 on 66) and has 4 or 5 wineries peppered between gorgeous estate manors. Blue Valley is one of our favorites, with excellent wine and gorgeous grounds and views. Delaplane is a pretty location too, and for the fancy wine tasting experience in an architecturally stunning setting, check out rdV WInery (maximum 4 people). Our favorite wine is probably the Cabernet Franc at Chester Gap Cellars, which also has one of the most stunning views too, and that is just about 35 minutes from the house too.

- "The property was the perfect location for our family get together. We were able to spend a day Monticello as well as multiple trips into Shenandoah National park. Both were easy to access with the Park being only a few minutes from the house. It was also a short walk into town for dinner or ice cream. Would stay there again." - "Lovely charming home in a great area. Very close to the national park and make sure to explore the town as well. Only thing to note is that the downstairs bedroom is not really suitable for a couple (two separate beds, one of which is on the floor) and the bathroom is separate at well. So we all ended up upstairs sharing a bathroom. But still there was ample space. The hosts were very responsive to any issue or questions we had."

- "A little buggy in the area and house, but that’s nature, right?! Besides that, beautiful place, can’t wait to come back!" - "The house was absolutely stunning - very clean, well decorated, comfortable and cozy, with every amenity you can imagine. The views from the porch were so beautiful and we loved watching the sunset. Service was patchy near the house (in the house the wifi was perfect) so I recommend loading up the map to make sure you know where you’re going towards the end. Host was very responsive and accommodating. We tubed the river and went to Bear Chase Brewing and loved both activities! Went into Front Royal for groceries vs the close small shop (recommend this if you need full cooking groceries) but it was an easy drive and good store. We’d come back for sure!"
