Lovely getaway
We spent a weekend exploring the Shenandoah National Park, Luray Caverns and Front Royal. Lots of good food and music in Front Royal (try Try Thai), and a helpful visitors center. The best part though was being at the house enjoying the the fireplace, especially the fire pit on the deck, and the bay window both overlooking the valley!

Beautiful weekend in the mountains.
What a perfect way to spend the weekend with our family. We had everything we needed, a perfect setting, to spend quality time with our children. The quiet beauty of the mountains surrounding, coupled with a brief overnight snow provided a picturesque morning coffee backdrop. We enjoyed every moment and definitely wanted to stay longer.

Peaceful Stay With Spectacular View
We spent a wonderful 4 days at this Shenandoah home. It’s close enough to Front Royal to be able to grab a meal, but far enough away to forget there is anything but the mountains surrounding you.

Fall Getaway
Great place to stay. We loved the location which was central to many historical sites that we visited. The fall colors were wonderful. The home is very clean and well appointed. We would certainly recommend and return if the opportunity presents itself. It a nice quiet place to stay.

About the host

Hosted by Bill and Stephanie Talbot

Host profile image
Hello from Bill and Stephanie Talbot. In 2015 we built our dream home, Whispering Oaks, in the Shenandoah Mountains. Having traveled extensively for the military, we now teach at a local community college and are avid hikers. We love our community and the outdoors so much we wanted to share it with others. We are now proud to offer Whispering Winds for families and friends to gather in the mountains to revel in the starlit skies, to enjoy the River, the hiking, the farm markets, the quaint country festivals and especially to relax and get away from it all. It is our hope that you come to Whispering Winds as guests and leave as friends. Bill and Stephanie

Why they chose this property

This property was purchased and developed because of our love for hiking and the outdoors. We wanted people to be able to enjoy a full weekend in the area, so keeping the travel time of 90 minutes from DC was very important to us. This property gives travelers a quick get a way to a serene mountain retreat.

What makes this property unique

The views speak for themselves! The starlit skies at night are free of ambient light and are a mesmerizing delight after a day on the mountains or river. Don't forget to gather around the fire pit for smores and friendship and fun.
