Gander Island Cabins

We loved the building design of Mother Goose! But she could use some attention to bring her back to what she's on the market as being: We went on our own but shared her with families of stink bugs and ladybugs. She can sleep six people but, when eating meals together, cutlery needs be be shared because she only has two knives and three spoons in her kitchen. We knew to bring linens, i.e. sheets and pillow cases. The sale's pitch should also advise that there are no blankets, no duvets provided. She allegedly has two bathrooms and washing facilities. This may be so but given that the lower floor (where we assume these facilities are) couldn't be accessed with the same key as the upper floor, they weren't accessible. The worst part was perhaps that the cleanliness was extremely superficial.

Our family loved our stay! It was quiet and gorgeous. The cabin overlooks the river and mountains, so we enjoyed watching the sunsets from the hot tub. It’s secluded enough but close to town for food and the local attractions. We can’t wait to stay again.

Great last minute family get-away! The host was extremely accommodating and easy to work with. We traveled with our 4 young children and it was perfect! We enjoyed exploring the river, playing badminton, and relaxing by the campfire! Such a perfect day to reconnect. The accommodations were super comfortable and very clean. My kids especially loved the loft and are excited to tell their friends that they slept in a Lincoln log cabin ;)We hope to come back in the summertime and hopefully have friends rent the other 2 cabins. Great proximity to Luray.

We stayed at the beautiful Outpost cabin. It was relaxing and comfortable. We then used SRO to kayak all day with our group of 40 people who stayed in other lodgings. And then we invited our friends for coffee and dessert at the cabin. It was a wonderful stay. I highly recommend it.

My husband and I took our mini moon here. The cabin was cozy, warm, and comfortable. We had a rainy night while in town and had a wonderful evening after wine tasting cuddled up on the couch. We didn't use the loft, just the main floor. The place seemed a bit to small for more than 2 adults, but the loft looked great for a bunk if a family with kids wanted to stay. The fall colors were a bit delayed, but it was still beautiful. We went wine tasting in the area and highly recommend Castle Winery. We also enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit at the cabin.
