The Royal Cabin | Private Getaway w/Hot Tub | Cabin in Front Royal
7 Bedroom Cabin in Front Royal
Summary:
Discover "The Royal Cabin": A stunning 1789 log cabin reimagined with the addition of 3,300 square feet of total living space. Once one of Front Royal's original log cabin farmhouses, it's been meticulously restored with warmth and craftsmanship.
Step inside to the gathering core of the cabin: a bright, open kitchen and dining area designed for connection. The farmhouse-style kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, bakeware, and serveware for everything from big breakfasts to holiday dinners. Stainless steel appliances, generous counter space, and a large island make it easy to cook together, while bar seating invites company during meal prep. Beside it, the dining area looks out over the yard, where deer and foxes are often spotted at dusk. Just beyond, the Great Room centers around a custom-built mantle and 70” electric fireplace. Enjoy a true theater-like experience with the massive 75” TV for family movie nights, while soft lighting adds a relaxed glow in every season.
The Great Room opens into the preserved 1789 original log cabin, where the hand-hewn timbers still tell the home’s story. Inside, a custom-built game table sets the stage for late-night board games and conversation. A cozy reading loft above offers a quiet spot to sip wine or simply take in the texture of old wood and new design. In cooler months, the propane fireplace keeps this historic part of the home especially warm and inviting.
The Royal Cabin includes six bedrooms arranged across three levels, offering space, privacy, and comfort for families and groups alike:
1. Primary King Suite (Main Level): A spacious retreat with a full ensuite bath, TV, and easy access to the main living areas—ideal for guests who prefer no stairs.
2. Green Room (Second Level – King Bed)
3. Red Room (Second Level – Queen Bed)
4. Blue Room (Second Level – Queen Bed)
5. Second King Suite (Lower Level): Spacious and private, this suite includes its own full ensuite bath, a dedicated workspace, and easy access to the game room/lounge.
6. Twin Room (Lower Level – Two Twin Beds): Designed for kids or friends, this cheerful room sits beside the entertainment space and offers a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere.
Step out from the Great Room into the wide backyard, where the day’s rhythm slows under open skies. Follow the stone path to the hot tub for a soak beneath the stars, or gather around the propane fire pit for stories and s’mores. The covered porch, complete with hanging chairs and a gas grill, makes it easy to linger after dinner. For friendly competition, you’ll find a full lineup of outdoor games, including bocce ball and Cornhole. Whether it’s laughter around the fire pit or quiet moments on the porch, every corner of The Royal Cabin invites connection, ease, and a sense of belonging.
