The main room is open and airy and the back patio is also super spacious with comfortable couches to relax on. There are some games out back as well including a bocci court. They didn't have any wine tastings due to Covid nor did they do flights so you had to order full bottles. They do have glasses of Froze which is delicious and was a perfect treat in the summer heat.

Thanks for a great day on the river!!

Inconsiderate staff. I understand that weight limits are important for the safety of the horses,…read morebut the way it was handled felt unnecessarily rude. The repeated questioning felt excessive and honestly left me wondering whether assumptions were being made about me before I even arrived. As a Hispanic customer, I can guarantee once my name was revealed, suddenly I didn't know my own weight?? Being asked to reconfirm as if I was expected to be pearl the whale. Furthermore, I almost died and they HARASSED ME!! I was in a hospital bed, calls after calls leading to the below messages. From an unknown number not registered to the business. Super unprofessional, will never consider this place EVER AGAIN. Gitty yo ass up out the way while you can.

The people running it were very nice. The location is great along the Shenandoah River and we opted…read morefor electricity even though we were tenting but the sites are very close together. You can see everyone and everything going on around you even though there are short fences between some sites. In fact, 2 camping neighbors kept coming into our site to get branches off the ground for firewood; very annoying. The bathrooms have a shower and toilet but no shelving to put your things, although there are two hooks to hang items. It's very dank and the faucets leak. Everything needs updating. They remind me of stalls to wash animals. I wouldn't advise going barefoot in the bathroom or shower.

If you plan to have a good time listening to music with friends after a long day floating the river…read moreI would NOT recommend you stay here. The taunting, intimidation with K9 force, threatened entrapment and arrest was enough to NEVER come back!!! 11mins past "quiet" hour (10PM) a demand, from unidentified individuals holding the reins of a German Shepard, to turn the music off came from the dark. Which warranted a simple response from the family being asked "I'll turn it down, but not off." Two minutes later, the individuals identify themselves as the owners while on the phone with the Sheriffs department requesting they escort this family off premise. All knowing the compromising position that would put this family in. I question the integrity of any small business owners who put their patrons in immediate danger as they did that evening Our incident was unwarranted and unprofessional! If all rules were enforced in the manner that was exemplified that night, NO ONE would be allowed on premise. I'll list the few rules breached during our stay; rowdy group loud until 3am, dogs off leash, generators being used, underage drinking & lastly underage children working... I would HIGHLY recommend you stay elsewhere, for the safety of you, your family & friends!

Day 4 - Gooney creek isn't the prettiest, but if you're from a place that doesn't have mountains,…read moreclean creeks, or stars - then it's pretty awesome. The sites really close together but Pam, the lady that checked me in, tries to spread peolple out unless if you request a site. The whole place looks kind of messy, but if you're out camping then who cares? Make sure to bring shower shoes or flops if you plan on using the bathhouse. This should be regular practice but you most definitely will want them here. I had stayed at a few different camp sites this week and gooney was definitely the best for star gazing. It may not be primitive, but it's far enough into the middle of nowhere that you don't have much light pollution. If you want a good view of the sky then opt for sites 20,19 and i think may 18. If privacy is your thing then maybe shoot for 18 since it's the last site, but still don't expect any real privacy because the trail to the swimming hole is at the edge of the site. They sell firewood on site and have drinkable water out of the spigots from the camper spots just across from the registration office. Pam was really helpful and even informed me of the meteor showers that night. If you're a big city person then you should appreciate what this place offers - just be aware that it may be kind of dirty.

Peaceful and quiet. They have everything you need to feel right at home. We prefer to disconnect from our fast paced lives while we are there, but there is wifi if you need it. We love that we can bring our pup with us. The views are spectacular. We love having a campfire each night, and we have spent many hours in those hot tubs! The owner is fantastic. He's professional, helpful and very responsive.

All are nice and have river access. We stayed in the Sundance cabin - a one bedroom - right on the Shenandoah River. 9 acres. What a view! Hot tub on the COVERED deck overlooking the view of the valley. sitting in the tops pf the trees and you can watch the hawk hunt. fire pit down on the river with chairs for comfort. 2 big meadows where deer wander in the mornings. paths along the river. gas fireplace. great kitchen. wsher and dryer. fantastic bathroom and shower. new flat screen TV. wifi. brought our laptop and hdmi and watched movies at night and when it rained. clean clean clean. Very private. a fantastic get away and only 1 hour and 20 minutes from DC. Highly recommended. 15 minutes from Front Royal and 10 minutes from Luray. I nearly kept one star because the grill is fixed on the wrong side of the cabin - a gas grill on that deck really would have made it perfect. But, we really had a great time and were incredibly pleased. Bring your food and booze, grab a cocktail and get in that hot tub and watch the sunset.

Deer Forest Lodge with Lion Crow Cabins was available. Even without any Yelp reviews we booked it because we had limited options and it was close to SRO. This is the nicest cabin we have ever stayed in!! It was clean and had literally almost everything you would need for an extended stay (except toiletries, which you should bring). We were able to grill, roast marshmallows, play cornhole, board games, and watch TV to relax after a long day on the river. Bernie, the site manager was amazing!! Based on the guest book, this particular cabin opened April of 2016. I debated whether to be the first to write a review or to keep this as our little secret, but I think that they deserve the business because it is clear that Lion Crow Cabins is working hard to make a stay in the Shenandoah a great experience! Thanks, Bernie!
