Two houses, one hill, and nobody else's group.

Hespera Reach is two private five-bedroom cabins near Luray, Virginia, fifteen minutes from Shenandoah National Park and Luray Caverns: ten bedrooms, twelve beds and seven bathrooms, for large groups who want one cabin or the whole property. Best for family reunions, corporate retreats and wellness groups, or take one cabin on its own.

The cabins sit on twenty-two private acres outside Luray, on a hilltop four hundred feet above the town and five miles from it — high enough that the Blue Ridge fills the horizon from north-east right round to south, and the Massanutten ridge closes the west twelve miles across the valley.

The cabins are dark and quiet on the outside. Inside they are the opposite — log walls, A-frame glass, deep color in every bedroom, hand-painted murals in the games rooms and the children's rooms, and a long table under the windows in each. Built for a group that intends to stay put.

They are named for the two ends of a day. Aubade is a song for the morning. Nocturne is a piece for the night. Take one, or take the hill.

Aubade

East cabin — five bedrooms, four bathrooms

The morning side. A-frame glass in the great room and the dining room faces the Blue Ridge, so first light arrives before anyone is awake. Barrel sauna and hot tub by the deck, a fire pit ringed with Adirondack chairs and hanging egg chairs below it, and a long table outside under the roof.

Nocturne

West cabin — five bedrooms, three bathrooms

The evening side. The hot tub faces twelve miles of open valley and the Massanutten ridge behind it, which is where the sun goes down. Its own sauna, its own fire pit, its own long table. Downstairs is the lounge and games room, with a pool table and a row of arcade cabinets.

Two of everything, so nobody ever waits in line.

Each cabin has its own hot tub, its own cedar barrel sauna, its own fire pit, its own grill and its own outdoor dining table. Take both cabins and nothing is shared with strangers and nothing runs in slots, because there is nobody else's group on the property.

Across twenty-two acres there are lawn games, a play set for the children, mown lawn running out to the treeline, and woodland past that.

And the weather is not part of the deal.

Each cabin also has its own games room — a pool table, foosball and arcade cabinets in both, theatre recliners and shuffleboard at Aubade, air hockey and a velvet lounge at Nocturne. Two rooms, so when a big group splits, and it always splits, nobody is waiting for a turn.

Which is why February works here, and why a wet Saturday in July is not a problem.

Fifteen minutes from the park gate.

Thornton Gap and the northern end of Skyline Drive sit five miles east. Luray Caverns and the town are five miles the other way. In between there's a river to float, five vineyards on the valley floor and a brewery on Main Street.

Whatever brings the group.

Most stays here are a large group with a reason: a reunion, a team, a retreat, a birthday, a holiday. Each has its own page with what that group needs to know.
