Local wineries and breweries
Muse sits on a beautiful piece of land between the Shenandoah River and the Massanutten Mountain, just east of the town of Woodstock (16 miles from the cabin), and it’s one of our favorite places in the area. It’s a lovely setting to enjoy a glass of wine and some charcuterie or Sara’s personal favorite - their AMAZING tomato soup, either outside on the lawn, with a beautiful view of the mountains and valley in the warm months, or inside by the fire when it’s chilly. It’s open until 8 p.m., so it is a great place to stop either before or after dinner.
