Family-friendly vacation rentals in Lake of the Woods

This place was wonderful. The screened-in porch was perfect and and so nice to sit in.

Great spot for our family of six. Plenty of space for the kids and dogs to roam. After hiking the hot tub was a big hit. Easy access to SNP and caverns. River access lot was great for fishing but there was an experience with a neighbor. Be mindful of the white posts that are near the sign on the river lot for fox creek lodge. The posts don’t go all the way to the water but those posts denote separate property although there is no sign saying so. When my son was fishing three feet inside that on the rocks in the water, the very vocal neighbor came down to the road and threatened to call the cops on us and yelled pretty aggressively as he continued to walk towards us. It seemed like a strange escalation on his part when we immediately got my son on the other side of the post as soon as he yelled that it was private property. Just a note of caution, as we didn’t go down to the river after that because the guy left us feeling a little unsettled. No fault on this Airbnb at all.

We had a really nice time at the cabin. Everything was laid out very nicely and was ready for us the moment we arrived. The space is beautiful and right on the lake. It was extremely peaceful to sit in the large screened deck and hang out with the stunning lake in view. Hope to stay here again some day!

It was a great weekend. The place was great with no problems and they were very helpful.

Connie's Rock Cottage was amazing! much thought was put into this cottage. Firewood and fire starter for the wood stove on chilly nights, robes we used for getting to and from the private hot tub just steps outside the back door,map of entire 550 acres of land including the wonderful paved walkway which meanders through the property. This was the mosr exceptionally prepared kitchen we have seen in out travels. Tons of utensils, a full set of potsand pans, dish towels, trivets, cutting boards and cooking sheets! We love to cook together when we travel and this kitchen was big enough for 2! We got some amazing pictures all over the farm. The lack of light pollution allowed us to enjoy the stars and Pink Full Moon in all their glory! We will be back to enjoy this cottage again!

First of all, Kate is a fantastic hostess. She was very accommodating, welcoming and communicative. I greatly appreciated her hospitality. The property is gorgeous and peaceful. It is like a peaceful spa oasis home away from home. You can find comfort in every room. The hot tub is glorious to soak in while staring at the nighttime sky or for watching the sunset. There is practically no light or noise pollution. You can hear the creek down the hill flowing. Most of your neighbors are cows grazing in a field down the drive or an adorable family of foxes on the property. It is a perfect spot to just get away, relax and enjoy a natural setting tucked away in a hillside. Kate has mindfully ensured guests have almost anything you may need to prepare meals in the kitchen. Also plenty of towels and linens. You are about a 15-20 minute drive away from everything C-Ville has to offer. Perfect distance to have access to all you may need and to have peace and quiet. Truly a wonderful spot.

Great stay! We were in town for a wedding at Morais Vineyards and it was a perfect spot for our old high school group to be able to all stay together for the festivities!!

I have now stayed at 3 of Derek's properties and all experiences have been fantastic! I think I loved this Walden cabin the most, though! The view, the gorgeous property, the well-kept and comfortable home - it's all amazing. I don't think I'll stay anywhere else when I want to visit the Blue Ridge from now on!

We fell asleep to the sound of the creek on the property and enjoyed sitting by the camp fire several nights. Dark skies made for great stargazing. While we spent most of our time away from the house during the day hiking and looking at beautiful overlooks, we slept well in comfortable beds and watched a few of the DVDs that were available in the evening. I’d definitely stay here again.

Couldn’t have asked for a better place for a girls weekend! The view was better than the photos, peaceful and comfortable!! I HIGHLY recommend this place!

We had a great retreat at John’s place. The farm was just the spot for a quiet weekend outside the city. John was a great host, thoughtful and responsive.

What an amazing place! Thank you Trish, David, and Alex for your unparalleled hospitality. If you are looking for a slice of heaven for your vacation, this is your place. Pristinely maintained, stunningly beautiful and serene, with vistas that will melt your heart. Absolutely priceless place that we will come back to as soon as we can.

Plenty of room for me and dog... Straight forward, basic, clean and comfortable ! 👍 Host was accommodating and very responsive and available!

This was a return visit after a few years and the property is as wonderful as I remembered. The dogs were so happy running around and there are multiple places to sit outdoors to enjoy the perfect weather. The house is very thoughtfully appointed and has everything. Literally everything! Such a relaxing visit. Highly recommended!

Peter and Paige were a great hosts! Their place was clean and comfortable. It’s close to many great restaurants and not too far from the Shenandoah National Park. Me and my husband loved our stay.

Caro made us feel right at home. Very friendly and gave us a grand tour! The place was spotless clean, had everything we needed and the beds were very comfy. The trains did come through 3 times a night but truly not unbearable and you get used to it. Heard the horn and went right back to sleep. Caro’s dinner/restaurant recommendation was superb! We would definitely stay here again.

The place was so nice, just like the pictures and so clean and location is very convenient, near to super markets, pharmacy, metro and bus stations.. The host answers any questions very fast and is very kind. I loved this place.

We loved using the pool and the patio/grill area. The view and the landscaping are beautiful. The owner was helpful and responsive; she supplied firewood and charcoal. Plenty of dining space both indoors and out. Good A/C.

Beautiful place with super hosts. The hosts are friendly and responsive. I will come back in the future.

Cute little place on a stunningly beautiful property! Our host was always responsive. We'd love to come back!

better than we could have imagined! absolutely beautiful surroundings. The other cabins and main house are pretty close together physically but we never saw anyone-still felt private and the views/surroundings are so beautiful that you feel in your own world, an immersive place. We really liked the decor, much more soul than the average cabin you might find on airbnb, and clearly the hosts have an eye for art and history. There were two times we encountered dogs unexpectedly and without any owner in sight, but they were very friendly dogs and no trouble-just unexpected. This would be a fantastic intimate wedding location!! Had a wonderful time and will be returning in hotter months to use the absolutely beautiful pool area.. thanks for a lovely stay.

Great host, gorgeous views, and a quaint old home with history. Queen bed was very comfy and ac worked great! Host greeted us, answered any questions we had, provided local recommendations for our anniversary, and had even more amenities than we expected upon arrival. Would definitely come back if in the area again! My dogs loved the farm.

My fiancé and I had an amazing weekend at cabin moonshine. It was exactly what we wanted for the weekend and our pups had a great time too. The view is phenomenal from the driveway to the porch to the hot tub, you can't miss the mountains. Cannot wait for our next stay!

Marco was a great host! He was friendly and quick to respond. The home is amazing, beautifully furnished. I'd definitely stay again! Thank you Marco!
