Lady Jane Cottage-Situated on a 250 Acre Riverfront Historic Farm

Grab some much needed R&R at this unique and tranquil getaway. This tiny home is located on the coveted 250 acre Rivercrest Farm Estate in the heart of Shenandoah.

Lady Jane Cottage is best suited for a solo traveler, but will accommodate 2 guests.

Only 15 minutes away from Massanutten Resort and 20 minutes from Shenandoah National Park.

Enjoy your coffee or tea in the screened in porch while relaxing in massaging chairs, or a glass of wine while watching the sunset.

The space
This tiny home is located right next to the original farmhouse (pictured) dating back to 1892. This home was originally owned by a direct descendant of President Zachary Taylor-12th President of the United States.

The farmland that is surrounded by the Blue Ridge Mountains was originally deeded by the King of England in the late 1700's.

The Lady Jane "Mansion" and Lady Jane Cottage are named after Linda Dovel who purchased the property, along with her husband, Paul Dovel II in 1975. This farmland was, at one time, the most successful cattle farm on the East Coast. On a much smaller scale, the farmland is still in use for agricultural farming and cattle farming.

Guest access
This cottage is not shared with anyone.

Other things to note
Please note that because we do have two dogs (dachshunds) we do not allow pets in this cottage, as we live in the main farmhouse located right beside the cottage.

This tiny home has a queen, pillowtop mattress.

The tv gets local channels only received by a digital antenna.

The total cottage space is 160 square feet. (Sleeping area and deck area included). This is a very small space, yet very comfortable! Due to the size of the space, there is a very small, on-demand water heater in the cabin that will provide 5 minutes of continuous hot water before needing to regenerate cold to hot.

This property is a working farm and will have staff coming and going at any given time.

**Please note that the enclosed deck area is a 3 season room and will not be climate controlled during the winter months!

The property was just as described and perfect for a solo traveler - cozy and compact, while very comfortable and well appointed! The attached screened in porch really expands the feel of the cottage and was a delightful space to sit and relax. The cottage was very clean and bright with large windows for light, and quality window shades for privacy at night. I would love to stay again!
