$4,015Welcome to Captain's Lodge, a remarkable riverfront retreat nestled along the rapids of the South Fork of the Shenandoah River. Offering the perfect blend of privacy, natural beauty, and investment potential, this fully furnished mountain getaway features 7 bedrooms and accommodations for up to 23 guests, making it ideal as a personal retreat, family compound, or income-producing short-term rental. A circular driveway welcomes you to the property, where a charming front porch, multiple side decks, and a riverside patio swing provide endless opportunities to relax and enjoy the sights and sounds of the river below. The property includes its own private access road and a scenic walkway leading directly to the riverbank. The main level features three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, along with a spacious great room, family room, and dining area centered around a wood-burning and a second gas fireplace, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere year-round. Expansive windows and outdoor living spaces showcase breathtaking views of the river, surrounding forest, and abundant wildlife. An oversized garage provides ample parking, storage, and workshop space. The lower level offers four additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a large recreation area perfect for entertaining. The pool table and ping pong table convey with the property, creating an instant gathering and fun space for guests. A third wood-burning fireplace adds warmth and character to the lower-level living area. Step outside to the covered patio, firepit area, outdoor grilling space, and large storage shed with covered firewood storage. A private walkway leads directly from the home to the river's edge. Surrounded by the beauty and tranquility of the George Washington National Forest, the property provides immediate access to hiking, camping, fishing, hunting, wildlife viewing, and scenic drives throughout the Shenandoah Valley. The secluded setting offers a true escape while remaining convenient to area attractions. Additional features include a water filtration system and two supplemental water storage tanks, including a dedicated tank serving the oversized Jacuzzi tub adjacent to the recreation area. HVAC replaced in 2024. 1 of the 2 water storage tanks replaced in 2025. Hot water replaced in 2024. Perhaps the most compelling feature - beyond the stunning river views, forest surroundings, and unmatched privacy - is the property's established short-term rental income potential.
