Perfect getaway
As always everything was wonderful on Helms Mountain. Peaceful, relaxing, and the electric fireplace made it cozy on the cold nights. Hot tub was the best way to start the day and also finish the day under the stars.

A fun mountainside getaway
The accommodations were exceptional. The manager was easily reachable. The views and locale were stunning, and the location was also conveniently located near Luray Caverns and Skyline Drive. The road getting up to the getaway was doable in our Corolla, but we would suggest using an SUV or other higher clearance vehicle (and to travel on the road leading there during daylight hours). We really enjoyed our experience, and look forward to coming again!

Helms Mountain Getaway - A Clean Cabin with a View!
We stayed for 3 nights during a trip to Shenandoah and really liked this cabin. Everything was neat and tidy when we arrived. The fully appointed kitchen, ample clean linens, bonfire pit, and hot tub made our stay very enjoyable. As one small piece of hopefully constructive feedback, the dryer took several cycles to dry our clothes. Might be time for a new one. This definitely didn't detract from our enjoyment of the trip/location though!

Peaceful with amazing views!
We loved our stay at Helms Mountain getaway! The views from the deck were amazing. We spent so much time on the deck; be it coffee in the mornings, dinner outside almost every night and relaxing in the hot tub looking at the stars and listening to the surrounding nature. The home was comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. We also enjoyed the firepit in the evenings. The driveway was not too bad; definitely agree it is easier with all wheel drive. The house is within easy driving distance to the Skyline Drive, Luray Caverns, and many other local attractions we found when wandering about. We also went to the local pool (Hawksbill Rec center) on a hot day--which was very reasonably priced for the kids to swim.

Perfect location
Overall an excellent stay. From the location- to the view- to the modern comfort/yet private feel; the cabin was an excellent choice for our family. Driveway was a lot of fun with our 4Runner to navigate. (Take your time the first go up and down) would recommend to anyone with or without kids

This was undoubtedly the best stay I’ve had. Views were incredible! Cabin was the cleanest of any I’ve been at. Pretty much everything was provided. I have zero complaints. Only 12 miles from Shenandoah. Communication and instructions were top notch. If you’re looking for a secluded, romantic getaway, this is the place.

Secluded with a great view!
The view was amazing and the location was very secluded. The driveway was rough but did get easier after using it the first few times (its kind of what it takes for being able to be high up in the mountains with a view!). Lots of birds chirping away and flying around the property. Also had a couple bear sightings! (one eating raspberries further down the property line and two young adults walked right up the driveway, both did not seem to want anything to do with people and left pretty quickly so we did not feel threatened and felt very safe, so no worries there!) The hot tub was great!

Best mountain cabin around
As always the cabin was clean, comfortable and welcoming. Secluded and the only noise heard was the song birds. The hot tub was perfect and the fire pit was great when it was too rainy for the hot tub. See you again in the fall.

Beautiful location once you get up the drive way. Maintenace on the outside lacking, Deck hasn't seen stain in a long time. Hot tub cover has multiple tears. Key entry instructions confusing. Over the commode rack placed to far forward, causing lid to fall while using. Some of the wash clothes provided where just pain wore out. Patio furniture faded and rusty. Grass not cut.

Perfect for a relaxing weekend!
Booked this property to relax for a weekend with 4 friends. Very close from DC. The property is very amazing, with a great view of the mountains, and unbelievably private, without feeling much secluded. Host is great, and has kept the property very clean, very safe and well provided with anything you can think of as a necessity. Home delivery is available from an Italian restaurant from town, which is great! You can enjoy in a hot tub with a great view and complete privacy while still out in open, which is the best part! There is barbecue area, picnic table under a gazebo, and a great deck around the house, to have dinner with family. Overall, best experience! Tip - I would suggest to plan to get to the property before sunset, as the road to get to the property is little steep in the end to drive for the first time there.

This rental was fantastic. I rented this house for a week with my wife and young children and we had a great time. The house is up high on the mountain side and the views from the house are beautiful. The house itself is very new and modern, extremely clean with a open floor plan. The driveway is long and steep but is actually a lot of fun to drive up and down. The property is very private and they have a nice backyard area for relaxing. Tons of wildlife to view and there is a small spring flowing down the mountain side in the back of the property which has a very calming sound of nature. Very close drive to skyline drive entrance and the hiking trails around here are great. We will rent here again in the future.

Super romantic!!!
Had a fantastic time! The driveway is no joke but my Sonata could make it up even with the rain. Host was very helpful and property was very clean. My one comment would be to turn up the temperature of the hot tub about an hour before use. Even with the rain, the views were beautiful and I was able to have the perfect proposal! Will definitely book again when in the area!
