Historic Slate Hill School House in Fort Valley, Virginia

The historic Slate Hill Schoolhouse in Fort Valley started serving local farming families prior to the Civil War. However, the School House had to be rebuilt after a fire in 1871. Many local children attended between 1871 and the closing of the school in 1939. Attendance records from 1904-07 indicate that the children ranged in age from 7 to 18 years old, with a median age of 11.

A thorough renovation was completed in 2013, and the Slate Hill School House is now furnished and equipped to serve as the perfect place for a quiet and restorative getaway. Set in pastoral farmland, you can enjoy views of the ridges of Massanutten Mountain from the porch or the fire pit. From the other side of the house, you may on occasion see horses roaming inside the fences of Glenmont Farm across the way. There are several outdoor recreation options nearby, including many hiking trails in the George Washington National Forest and fishing at Passage Creek.

In the School House living room you'll find a travel display on the wall that includes a folded map of the dozens of hiking trails in the surrounding area. Just five miles south of the School House on Fort Valley Road, you’ll find the Fort Valley Post Office and the Fort Valley Country Store which sells gasoline, extra firewood, and other conveniences, including made-to-order deli sandwiches.

The School House is less than 30 minutes to Front Royal if you travel East on Route 55. And it's less than 30 minutes to Strasburg traveling West on Route 55. The historic districts of each town have restaurants, breweries, and points of interest that you might like to keep in mind for rainy days in particular. Strasburg has one of the biggest antique emporiums in the area.

If you're up for traveling 40 minutes or more, the family might enjoy Shenandoah Caverns. Across from the building entrance to the caverns, you'll find the one-of-a-kind "America on Parade" Museum. It's opened seasonally, and it houses an amazing collection of huge floats from major parades such as presidential inaugurals and the Pasadena Rose Parade. Within 30-45 minutes there are several sites for Civil War buffs, including the Cedar Creek Battlefield, Hupp's Hill, and Belle Grove. Also about 40 minutes away are the historic towns of Edinburg and Woodstock. The Edinburg Mill houses numerous collections on several levels that inform on life in the Shenandoah Valley during the 19th and early 20th centuries.

A note for potential guests:
T-Mobile and AT&T have cell signals in Fort Valley, but if your cell provider is Verizon, you will not get a good signal, or any signal at all. You'll want to connect your phone to the WiFi at the house to make calls and get an internet connection.

Enjoy a Shenandoah Schoolhouse Stay!

The place was immaculate & the host was very accommodating. He had no problem with us taking our small parrot He told us, without asking, we could leave in the afternoon b/c there wasn't an early check-in. I've never had a host volunteer that, and it made for a relaxed ending to a great stay.

We really enjoyed our short stay at the schoolhouse. Host was very communicative and kind. House was well-kept and clean, well-stocked with kitchen essentials, games and books for rainy days, etc. Property is perched up on a hill, so even though it's relatively close to the road, felt secluded and quiet inside and out. Our pups really enjoyed sniffing about the yard on leash. Very close to hiking trails and 30min from town with restaurant options and the like. Only recommendation for visitors is to pack your own drinks if you don't like the taste of well-water.

We had a fantastic stay with our two kids and our dog. The house was spotless with small touches that made a different like firewood and kindling ready on the porch and towels specifically to dry your dog which we needed on this trip with the weather. The views were fantastic. All of the beds were comfortable. We will likely be back.

Cute comfortable house

The Schoolhouse was as described, and a perfect base to explore the area. A quiet retreat, and an easy drive to restaurants and attractions. It was well furnished and comfortable. We had 5 people in our party (3 adults, 2 kids) and the space was perfect. Games for kids, comfortable beds, a nice fire pit, and amazing views. The hosts were great too!

Lovely Place

Very comfortable, clean & pleasant accommodations in a lovely setting. Excellent set up for our family, which was comprised of my husband and me, plus our daughter, son-in-law, their four year old daughter and gentle older lab mix dog. We were downstairs with our own bathroom, while our daughter and her family stayed upstairs, with a second bathroom. There was plenty of privacy for each party.Our hosts were immediately in touch with us with an offer of water, etc when the electricity went out during the day. We weren't in the house at the time and the electricity was restored within a short time, so there was never any problem. (We understand this happens in rural areas )The house is a drive from Shenandoah NP and towns with restaurants, but we were in no hurry, so that was OK. Washington National Forest is close by and looks beautiful and sparsely touristed. The next time we're in the Washington DC area we would definitely consider a return visit with hiking in the National Forest.

Beautiful Spot

If one is seeking a rural retreat, then this wonderful property is perfect. Nestled in a valley surrounded by the Massanutten mountain, this historic converted school is beautifully maintained. It’s conveniently located near hiking/mountain biking trails as well as campgrounds in the nearby National Forest, and ATV trails if that’s your thing.Highly recommend!

Wedding weekend

A quaint, sweet place. If you are looking for a place to truly get away and unplug, this is it!! We were in the area for a wedding so it was a great place to relax around all the busyness. Would love to stay again to enjoy the hiking trails, games and fire pit with family.

Very nice

It’s a nice little place for a small group to use as a home base to explore the area. Nothing fancy at all. Kitchen was what you’d expect in a mid range rental. Beds were fine. B The biggest drawback was the hvac. It was 79 outside and the AC couldn’t get the house below 73. I wouldn’t want to Be there in the heat of the summer.

Comfortable stay

The home was super clean and I didn’t feel like I needed to clean when I got there, which is sometimes the case. I cannot comment on nearby attractions as this was a quiet getaway for rest and relaxation. The area outside is smaller than expected since Ft Valley Road does cut through the green space at the bottom of the hill, but the view is lovely. The driveway is busy as there are multiple residences down that way, but this did not bother me. A wonderful covered porch is where I spent most of my time!

epic beauty, country charm, cozy and clean

The Schoolhouse is a charming, historic building with picturesque views of mountains and meadows. Our three year old delighted in playing on the wide front porch, and counting wild turkeys in the field across the road. It was too warm when we stayed to use the fire-pit, but it would be a terrific place for a fire on a cooler evening. The AC worked great in the house, so we sheltered from 95 degree heat indoors mid-day. The house is beautiful in its bones, with artful decor echoing the schoolhouse history. It had a nice book collection for all ages, and lovely modern kitchen and baths. The house was spotless when we arrived (though we made the mistake of leaving bananas on the counter and one was chewed by a mouse overnight). Old country houses will have mice no matter what you do, so if you wish to enjoy a romantic old country home, just keep food in the cupboard space and not on the counter. Our mistake. We would definitely stay again. This was a peaceful, comfortable, clean and charming home in an epically beautiful location.

The School House Is Wonderful!

My wife and I stayed at the Slate Hill School House and enjoyed every minute. Located in the beautiful Shenendoah Valley just outside of the George Washington State Park. The property provides a picturesque setting on a peaceful country road where you can enjoy the awesome mountain and valley views from the front porch. The sunrises are incredible as well! Brian and Stella were great to work with and very helpful and responsive when needed. The house is updated, comfortable, and includes everything you need to enjoy your stay. We highly recommend!

Wonderful Weekend Getaway

My family was looking for a place to stay close to the Shenandoah National Park for a weekend trip. We found this property and we were so glad we chose to stay there! The house was so cute and the property was beautiful. We spent our evenings around the campfire! We were able to enjoy some hiking and explored the Luray Caverns (which is a must!) We highly recommend his property and host, both were exceptional.
