    Wedding in the Mountains

    We had our wedding here 6/36/2022 and it was the best and most funnest weekend with our families we all have had. To have the venue the weekend is great for othe uses such as brunches, rehearsal dinners, or game night! We utilized the picnic area, Pavillion, and the Somerset Cabin for our events with our families and friends. Loved that the cabins are blocked off for guest to book and they're handled by the venue. All issues our guests had at the cabins had them immediately resolved with a text to Jason or the number provided at booking. All the guests loved the cabins and everyone was in completely different ones. Ones for families, couples, adults only, or...

    A perfect wedding weekend!

    I can't say enough nice things about Jason Cave. He was wonderful to work with leading up to my June wedding, he would answer my many emails even if I missed the info on the website. He also massively stepped up on the day-of to help pick up more guests than expected because my other hired bus showed up over 40 minutes late. He made my day significantly better by basically removing that mishap.
    The venue itself was amazing! I loved Shenandoah woods when I first saw it in the Spring of 2022 and was blown away by the beauty for my wedding weekend in June 2023.
    We had a pizza truck for our Friday dinner by...

    The dream wedding beyond my wildest dreams...

    Just this past weekend, my husband and I were married at Shenandoah Woods and it nothing short of an absolutely perfect experience! The venue itself provides the most breathtaking views and the coziest accommodations that made every moment of the event feel like a fairy tale. Every one of our guests is still raving about the experience and, if booking this venue, you can expect that each of your guest's FaceBook profile picture will quickly be changed to one with your wedding as it's backdrop! Beyond simply the beauty of the location, the owner, Jason Cave, was more than wonderful to work with. A wedding is no small feat to plan with it's many, many considerations that need to...

    A True Fairy Tale Weekend

    We just returned from a 4 day fairy tale weekend at Shenandoah Woods. We hosted our daughter's wedding here including a rehearsal dinner Friday and an brunch Sunday morning all at the pavilion. We did not want to leave.....Shenandoah Woods is paradise in the mountains. So beautiful and serene. It was the perfect...and I stress...perfect venue for our wedding weekend.

    The views from the pavilion and the wedding chapel are breathtaking. I'm sure the photography from the day will be incredible given the scenery and views.

    In addition, our guests rented all of the cabins and I heard nothing but wonderful comments about how beautiful the cabins were, the views, everything about them. I also heard...

    Location, Location, Location!

    Shenandoah Woods was the PERFECT venue for my daughters October wedding! The couple wanted a view, and boy, did they get it! Everything was beautiful - from the ceremony site to the rustic/chic pavilion with the most amazing view of the Blue Ridge Mountains! And, the lake pavilion down the road was a wonderful spot for the rehearsal dinner.
    Jason Cave was amazing! He always answered our questions in a timely manner and was quick to offer solutions to whatever problem occurred. His calm assurances made everything easier.
    We loved the shuttle service! The bride wanted everyone to be able to enjoy the reception and the shuttle fulfilled that wish, picking up guest at the cabins and even...

    Jason and his venue truly made our wedding weekend everything we wanted and more. He is literally the most responsive person ever. Gets back to you in lightening speed to emails, texts and phone calls making you feel like you are his only client (which clearly isn't true given he is booked out so far!). He is constantly making improvements to his properties and the venue. Most of our family, wedding party and guests stayed on site in the cabins and everyone was so impressed by the quality and condition of them all. Not to mention the GORGEOUS views. We ended up having our rehearsal dinner at the Keaton Ridge Cabin and was just perfect. The view were great...

    Jason and his family were amazing, and everyone felt comfortable and relaxed, which meant we had a great party! Among the many wonderful perks of booking Shenandoah Woods were: a golf cart to bring grandparents to the ceremony site, flexibility working with my vendors on a last-minute rain/no-rain plan, heater setup on Labor Day weekend!, extreme flexibility with scheduling the shuttle, and accommodation of special requests. I can't wait until our anniversary when we can visit again!

    We got married in the pavilion at Shenandoah Woods and had our rehearsal dinner at the Somerset cabin in June 2014. We didn't use the Joseph House but that is available as an alternative reception or rehearsal dinner site. An important detail to point out is that the pavilion reservation is for 48 hours so you are not rushed to set up and break down within a certain time frame and you don't have to wait for another wedding to finish. The venue itself is beautiful - our pictures are amazing. Our guests loved the fire pit and I was happy that the rain cleared up in time for us to use the new ceremony site. This is not...

    Mountain-chic wedding venue driving distance from DC!

    Shenandoah Woods was our dream wedding venue - and it delivered! The covered, open-air pavilion is the perfect reception venue, and it also makes for a rain contingency site for the gorgeous outdoor ceremony site. The mountain and sunset views from the pavilion are amazing, and our guests raved about the beauty of the location. We also loved that our guests had the option to book cabins on the property and use the shuttle service to get to and from their accommodations on our wedding day.

    Jason was a very professional, communicative, and supportive throughout the planning process. We plan to visit his cabins again in the future to remember our amazing day!

    Gorgeous Venue with Great Amenities

    We are truly thankful to Jason and the Pavilion for giving us a gorgeous backdrop for our wedding and providing so many nice touches to help make our day special. We have received many compliments on the space itself (beautiful views, rustic feel, romantic lighting) as well as its many amenities (lawn games, onsite cabins, shuttle services). We even received the wood sign for our event as a momento from the Pavilion.
    We were also really grateful to have the rental space for the entire weekend (Friday through Sunday) because it meant that we didn't have to rush around for set up and clean up. This really helped to set a relaxed and fun mood for our wedding...

    Perfect Venue!

    We had our wedding weekend at Shenandoah Woods and could not imagine a more perfect venue. The pavilion is very well equipped and we used it for our welcome dinner, cocktail hour, and wedding reception. The views out onto the mountains are perfect for photos or a quiet moment away from the crowds. The built in sound system and lighting made throwing a party simple. The Chapel in the Woods is what truly sold us when Jason pointed out that the mountain we got engaged on in Shenandoah National Park was visible from where we'd be standing during our ceremony. The luxury cabins onsite and nearby provided plenty of space for our friends and families and let everyone stay...

    Stunning! Perfect mountain wedding

    We got married at Shenandoah Woods almost two weeks ago and it was everything we could have hoped for! Jason was easy to communicate with and accommodating. We had to postpone our wedding for a year and Jason was wonderful to work with through that change. Most of our guests stayed in the cabins on site and loved the shuttle service that Jason provided, the stunning views, the hot tubs, and the wedding weekend getaway with so many loved ones. We were lucky to still have some fall colors on the trees and had some stunning backdrops all day. The Pavilion was warm and cozy with the heaters going, vinyl walls down, and fire pit roaring as it got...

    Amazing venue, but more importantly, Jason is great!

    The venue is beautiful - we loved having cabins onsite and that everything is outdoors and well-equipped.

    More importantly, Jason is amazing! He is so easy to work with, highly communicative, and extremely helpful. We had to move our wedding date due to Covid and Jason had no problem with it at all - he made the whole process so stress-free, and made sure he was available and ready to help the entire weekend. He responded to last minute requests for shuttle rides, helped make sure everything worked for the venue and music, and was readily available at all times.

    Highly recommend!

    Amazing. Magical. Beautiful. Gorgeous. Fun. Everything we could have asked for and more. A dream!

    Shenandoah Woods is magical. First of all, YES the view is that beautiful. Secondly, with the ease of having the cabins on site, you get to see that view for days before and after if you choose. At of all the reviews about our wedding, this is by far the one that is entirely difficult to write and put into words because this place is that special.
    First and foremost, Shenandoah Woods was our first vendor hired and by far the most important for us. I knew the moment I saw the listing on wedding wire, that was the place I as a Bride wanted to get married. Our timeline was based on the availability, and unfortunately getting engaged...

    Incredible Wedding Venue!

    Shenandoah Woods was the perfect venue for our wedding. We had such an amazing weekend that we were able to share with our family and friends. Jason was so easy to work with and incredibly helpful. Everything went off without a hitch. I can't imagine anyone not having the best time celebrating their wedding here. All of our friends and family who stayed in cabins loved them (as did we!). The Pavilion itself is stunning with gorgeous views. The fire pits in the fall were everything. We will definitely visit again!

    Fantastic.

    We got married here in June 2019 and rented a bunch of cabins. My husband and I personally stayed in Lost Paddle cabin and it was *so* well-appointed, clean, comfortable, and beautiful. The views were gorgeous and everyone had a great time. Jason, the owner, took great care of us in terms of email responses and helping us with special arrangements ahead of time. Everything went perfectly, and we were so grateful!! Especially love that they have on-site recycling, and the kitchen was really well stocked. We loved the cabins, the location, the lovely picnic shelter, etc. Highly recommended!

    Shenandoah Woods is the dream wedding location!

    We can’t say enough wonderful things about Shenandoah Woods and Jason Cave – both the venue and Jason exceeded our expectations. Book Shenandoah Woods for your wedding or other event! The venue and ceremony site are beautiful and offer spectacular views of the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains. The luxury cabins are unreal – huge private log cabins with gorgeous views. They have modern kitchens, bathrooms, and bedrooms, and most include special features such as hot tubs and/or gas fireplaces.

    Throughout the process, Jason was highly responsive, flexible, supportive, thoughtful and calm. He has been supporting weddings for a few years and has seen it all. His experience and enthusiasm were greatly appreciated, and he offered some great...

    Jason and his venue are amazing! We wanted a full weekend event in the beautiful mountains and that was exactly what we were able to get with Jason and Shenandoah Woods! The entire wedding party and almost all the guests were able to stay on the mountain/property in Jason's cabins. He shuttled everyone around throughout the wedding day and was available via email, text, and phone any time we needed him or had a question. He worked with us to create the wedding weekend of our dreams and we would 100% percent recommend him and this venue to anyone!

    There will not be enough characters allowed here for me to fully express just how insanely happy we are with Shenandoah Woods as our wedding venue!!!!!!! First of all, yeah, they're pricier than some of the nearby venues and we went way over budget by picking them. BUT... WORTH! EVERY! DAMN! PENNY! There's a reason they're booked every weekend a full year out.
    Everything about Shenandoah Woods was perfect, and the main reason for that was the owner Jason. Our wedding planner told us ShenWoods is her favorite venue to work at, because everything is so well thought out. Basically if any couple ever says "we could use X", he'll add it to the package. So not only do...

First, Jason, the owner, is super responsive, and will answer any questions you may have no matter how small. He is extremely Accommodating and laid back. Every time I checked my email there was somthing new coming to the venue, weather it be a new cabin he’s building, or upgrading equipment. They provide almost everything you need!! Tables, chairs, coolers, freezer, keg coolers, wine barrels corn hole boards ect...They also custom make you a beautiful wooden sign with you and your partners name and wedding date. It was the sweetest gesture and somthing we will have for a lifetime. We had...

    Jason was very helpful throughout the wedding weekend. The roads are rough, however, and difficult to drive on unless you have a four wheel drive. The kitchen could use some updating but the cabins are very well equipped and comfortable. It was all in all a great experience.

    We cannot say enough good things about Jason and Shenandoah Woods. On the way home from our wedding, as we excitedly chatted about the weekend, we agreed that we would give Shenandoah Woods an 11 out of 5 if we could. Jason is extremely responsive, kind, and an absolute wedding pro -- he felt as essential as our own planner in helping us pull things together, ready to respond to anything that might pop up. It truly felt that he was as invested in making sure that our wedding was a success as we were. We couldn't have asked for more. It is hard to put into words what a unique venue Shenandoah Woods. It will always be a special place for us, and is now the home of many happy memories.

    Shenandoah Woods was the perfect venue for our wedding. Jason was very quick to respond to our emails and answer our questions. We had a pre-wedding BBQ at Somerset and it was great that we were able to use to the chairs and tables from the pavilion for that event. For the wedding itself, everyone loved that we had beer and wine available at the ceremony site. =) We had a Sunday brunch at the pond and it was lovely. All of our guests who stayed in cabins had nothing but good things to say about the venue. We highly recommend Shenandoah Woods!

    Consistent with the other reviews, SW was above our price range but we fell in love with it and decided to splurge. It is a totally gorgeous venue and we loved that so many of our guests could stay in the on-site cabins. Jason was amazingly responsive to all our emails and questions, and went out of his way to make sure everything went smoothly. We had our welcome dinner and Sunday brunch at Somerset cabin, which was the perfect location and Jason offered to bring up extra tables and chairs from the pavilion. Our guests all commented on our gorgeous the ceremony site, Pavilion, and their cabins were. We couldn't have been happier with the venue!

    Shenandoah Woods was an amazing venue for our wedding 6-29-16! Jason was so easy to work with and the venue is absolutely top notch! My guests were blown away by the beauty that these spaces offer and how perfect it was for a wedding. Somerset cabin for the welcome dinner, the chapel in the woods for the ceremony, the Pavilion for the reception, the picnic area by the pond for a breakfast send off, and the additional cabins available for guests truly offered the perfect experience for our wedding! I was blown away with everything that was included in the wedding package and how much and for how long we had access to it all. I had so many...
