Food scene
It's actually called the "1835" now, but same place. Great BBQ and they often play beautiful dulcimer music, creating a wonderful atmosphere. Virginia and North Carolina BBQ. The inner building is pre-war (as in Civil -- so it dates back prior to 1860).

A 20 on a scale of 10. You'll interact with falcons and owls who can fly to you, all run by an excellent guide by the name of Jennifer. No matter what the age, this is an extraordinary experience.

Welp, we don't really know much about the Service Road, but Luray Caverns itself is fantastic. But, it wouldn't show up in the pre-populated list, so we got this strange title. Regardless, it's one of the best cavern tours you'll find.

Another of our family's favorite spots. Its about an hour-and-a-half from the cabin, but well worth it. You can drive your car on safari through scores of animals from giraffe to buffalo, and feed them as you go.

The river meanders through the valley that the cabin overlooks, and in the summer it's a great spot for canoeing or fishing. Its clear mountain water is one reason why the Coors Brewing Company, whose brewery is in nearby Elkton, chose the Shenandoah Valley as its East Coast location.

Breweries
On a family farm obtained through a land grant from King George II in 1759, this local brewery grows its own barley and hops and uses well water from the property -- water known for its vitamin content and crisp taste. And we think getting your vitamins from beer is a great idea. To-go growlers available.

New to the Valley and about 20 minutes from the cabin in the historic town of Elkton. Fantastic experience. Crowlers to go (that's a hand-made can of draft), or sip on the patio. One of the best IPAs we've ever had! Highly recommended.
