please note that madison county and the area surrounding area including shenandoah national park has limited cell phone service and that high-speed internet is not an option in our area Most of our guests with AT&T or Verizon will get one to two bars at the cottage. Our Wi-Fi is perfect for checking email or searching the internet, but our satellite is too slow for video or large downloads (doing this will make the internet speed even slower for the next person). please take this time to disconnect and enjoy the outdoors!
please note that the cottage is located in the country! all of our homes are on well water and many homes in the area have iron, sulfur and other elements in the drinking water
bugs and other pests:
