That’s what River Dell is. The bed in our suite has a story. It’s made of cherry lumber harvested from a friend’s farm in upstate New York; it was assembled there and finished in Virginia. The king-sized mattress is by Tuft & Needle – look up the website, they have a fascinating story. It’s received consistently good reviews!

Breakfast has many possibilities. Since we have one suite, we cater to our guests individually. We ask beforehand about food allergies, dislikes and preferences and so aim to please. The meal can be a buffet, which is set up in the loft just outside the suite to be enjoyed inside, or on the private balcony overlooking the Shenandoah River. The other option is to eat family style downstairs in the Great Room with the hosts. Each option is available every day of your stay.

As good as this is, a visit to River Dell can include much more than eating and sleeping! There’s kayaking, canoeing and tubing on the river. Hiking can be enjoyed locally or along the Skyline Drive. And there’s much to do, year ‘round – see the Attractions page. Come for a stay! We’d love to have you.
