Cabin in Front Royal

Mountaintop Retreat with Wood Fired Hot Tub

Named Virginia’s most wishlisted Airbnb, Doah House is an architect-designed retreat perched on a bluff atop the Blue Ridge, with wide views over the Shenandoah Valley. Featured in Dwell and Travel + Leisure, the cabin is a container for rest and observation. The stay is shaped by small rituals: lighting the fire, soaking in the wood-fired tub, making coffee by hand. Weather moves through the trees, changing light, air, and sound. Each day feels different. The forest changes, and you might, too.
