Shadow Mountain Escape is a hidden Gem, as is Karen Riddle. Every detail, from the moment we…read morearrived, until the moment we left, was absolutely perfect. There are certain people that find their calling in life, and believe me, Karen has found hers providing a beautiful one stop destination/ultimate private elopement venue along with handling every aspect of our wedding (flowers, wedding cake, vows, officiant, venue, and beautiful photos). We were blown away and are so happy we chose Shadow Mountain Escape, and Karen Riddle for our special day!! We will be back.

We Eloped at Shadow Mountain Escape 8/8/2026. It was a beautiful location & unlike anywhere else I…read morehave ever been. This trip was better than we could have imagined. The owners the property have poured their hearts into this property & their attention to detail will roll over into making sure you have a wonderful visit. My Husband was so happy I found such a special place for our "I Do's". We already can't wait to return.

I absolutely recommend this place! It was secluded and had an amazing view. The house, hot tub and…read moregrounds were well kempt. Our adult family of four stayed for six days, and it was a little tight but far from uncomfortable. We played horseshoes in the yard, ate s'mores, did some awesome hiking behind the house, which happens to be right on the edge of the national park (beware the nettles and getting lost), canoeing, the Luray Caverns, hiking in the national park, local dining, and we spent a ton of time in the hot-tub. I recommend all of it. Things to be aware of: the beds are not large, this place is secluded, and the driveway is a steep, gravel switchback.

The cutest vacation home rental right near the heart of town in Luray - Both the exterior +…read moreinterior of the home were so cozy! We went down for a girls weekend and absolutely loved it. There were 3 nicely sized rooms with comfy queen beds and 2 full baths. The decor in every single room was adorable and my friends all loved it, no matter the room we slept in. We really appreciated the small touches like the coffee station, cocktail set, and lots of comfy throw blankets provided! It was cold when we visited, but the backyard had the best patio and fire pit set up too! Our host/the owner was also so kind and helpful. Definitely recommend this place for the price compared to the other rentals in town!!

My review can't speak to the booking process as I was just a guest on a visit planned by someone…read moreelse but I will speak to the experience of finding the Amazing Grace Getaway and staying here! My family and I stayed here for a weekend to celebrate my brother's birthday and it was the coziest, cutest place for a family getaway! Huge +1 for the pool table in the house, we created some core memories here and had an awesome game night/ movie night after all our hiking and enjoying the beautiful scenery of Shenandoah. Not to mention, the stars from the deck are INCREDIBLE! The Amazing Grace Getaway offers tons of space for the family, lots of outdoor balconies/ decks, a fully stocked and beautiful kitchen, to name a few! All while being super clean and cozy! Will definitely consider coming back and staying here in the future!

Briar Laine house is beautifully decorated and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We especially loved the spacious living room open into the kitchen. Perfect for a family gathering. And the game room is a fun space for all ages to enjoy with board games, cards and a foosball table. We really appreciated the extra touches like fresh towels and a welcome basket. Great location for exploring Luray, walking distance to restaurants and shops.

My stay at the Adams River House was great! The house was spacious and beautiful just like the…read morepictures if not better. The grounds for Allstar and Outlanders were huge and I wish I knew more about it before my visit. We didn't have time to check out the river area & activities. The views were amazing. My group and I loved the hot tub and the firepit. The staff were great & really helpful.  They give you a list of items to pack -- but we did not realize 'extra' toilet paper and towels meant bring our own supply. Not a huge deal, we had to make a walmart run anyway.
