Family-friendly vacation rentals in Winchester

We enjoyed our time and the hot tub was great. Truly peace and quiet

I rented this Air BNB for my parents for a gift to them. I couldn’t have asked for a more responsive host and they had nothing but phenomenal things to say once arriving home!

Me and my family had a great stay felt right at home and the view is amazing

Patricia was a great host. We absolutely recommend booking with her. The cabin was clean when we arrived. Hot tub was amazing. The area is private and we will be booking again!

The chalet was a perfect home base for our stay in the valley over a birthday weekend. Derek gave us clear instructions ahead of time, we had no trouble getting in. We were able to just crash and watch TV the first night in front of the electric fireplace. Second night we hit the hot tub which we needed after a long hike. We found good restaurants in Front Royal and Luray (Osteria Maria, Chop House Bistro) and for coffee in the morning Broad Porch. Check out was also easy, we just needed to strip the beds and take out the trash. And of course we loved being able to bring our doggo. My fiancee had previously been hosted by Derek and we would definitely stay here again.

Rick and Brittany’s place was perfect for what I was looking for a long weekend away from the noise with the pup. It was quiet and private. Everything was just as described. Clean and easy to use. I do not mind driving a little further so took a venture over to Shenandoah for hiking but also got experience the local the lost river state park for hiking as well another day. Enjoyed grilling out for every meal too.

The only part of the stay that didn't get 5 stars was that it wasn't quite as secluded as I'd hoped for. There are a number of homes on the road to the cabin, and a thin line of trees breaks the view. Admittedly unless you're looking for the other houses you don't notice them, so I got past that quickly enough. That said, the cabin was perfect, clean, cozy and everything worked as stated. Having grown up in the country, but living in a city now, I felt the stress melt away as soon as I stepped into the massive yard where my son and I spent a lot of time playing soccer and other sports. My son and wife really enjoyed the hot tub. The location is 15 minutes away from Luray which meant that the stars were amazing for the brief break in the clouds we got, but that it was close enough to get groceries and take out as needed. Plus it's about 20 minutes away from Front Royal so there are places to go and enjoy like Skyline or Luray Caverns. Jackie was a great and responsive host!

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!

Everything was great and we had a wonderful time!

Had a great stay with our dogs. We loved the privacy with no neighbors in sight. There were lots of bees so it was a bit hard to enjoy sitting out on the deck but otherwise was great! Nice to be able to walk into Shenandoah right from the house.

My family of 4 plus our 2 fur babies had the best time at Julie’s home. The house is beautiful and unique with all the original remnants of wood and brick. It’s clean and very well maintained. The kitchen is well equipped with all the necessities. The pictures don’t do this house justice, honestly. The property is very private. We hardly saw any neighbors. We enjoyed everything the house had to offer, hot tub, couches outside, bathrobes, etc. we appreciated the tea, chocolate, wine and flowers left for us, too. Such a pleasant surprise, really! There are plenty of things to do around in the area. We had a great time. Thank you, Julie, for allowing us to enjoy your beautiful home with our entire family.

The cottage/house was as described and wonderful. The location was perfect to explore the many nearby hiking and outdoors options. The property itself has an excellent view. The fenced in yard was convenient for our dog. Inside everything was clean and well-maintained. There were a number of nice touches to make you feel at home. There was everything one would need and more. I needed to work remotely one day and the WiFi was very reliable. Great stay!

We had a very nice 3 day weekend at Elizabeth's place. The house was really cozy and we felt relaxed and at home there. It was a great location to reconnect with family as my brother and his wife only had to drive an hour from DC area to spend time with us. We enjoyed being able to walk from the house to downtown for lunch at the Box Office Brewery and antiquing at Strasburg Emporium. On a sunnier day, we had a great hike at nearby Elizabeth Furnace Recreation Area. Something for everyone in the area!

This place was our best choice even before we realized there would be a freshly-prepared, multi-course gourmet breakfast. House is as advertised, clean, and well-located. Scott and Lisa are friendly, responsive, and fantastic cooks. Enjoy!

Spotless place, amazing hosts. Highly recommend. We’ll be coming back.

Perfect for our girls weekend and we loved getting a chance to see the animals. What a charming place!

Brad and Stacey‘s loft was exactly as described. The loft was extremely squeaky clean. The bed and pillows were over the top comfy. My daughter will be going to James Madison University and I have a feeling that I will be using this loft many times in the future. Thank you to Stacey and Brad for hosting us.

Great mountain house! House was clean and had everything we needed. The host sent us local recommendations and checkin/out was easy!

This was an amazing and beautiful cabin! The cabin was very spacious and was perfect for what we needed. Owners were very proactive and responsive and communicative. I appreciated that there were no surprises and if anything came up, they would be able to respond in a timely manner. Would definitely stay here again!

This was our second stay at Janel's place and it was just as enjoyable as the first time. We loved the fireplace and views from the A frame windows. The hot tub wasn't working unfortunately, but things happen and Janel was communicative about it. Had a great weekend regardless. Also love that Janel is accommodating of dogs. Our fur babies were happy to join us on our getaway.

Comfortable beds, super clean hot tub and such a nice place to spend spring break. Excellent communication and very pleasant hosts. Will definitely keep this place in mind for future trips.

Really nice place. Lovely and peaceful and just what we needed

Very private location. The house was a nice cabin with spectacular views and comfortable furnishings. Very spotty Verizon cell service, but wifi worked very well for calling and internet. Would recommend for a private get-away.

Lovely place. Tons of space in the suite, beautiful views and Maud is a great host.
