Family Fun Weekend
We decided on Massanutten to get the best of both worlds with snow sports and the water park. This house was very clean and comfortable for the large party we had. The host was very communicative and friendly. The location was excellent, 5 mins to the slopes and 10 to the water park. The hot tub was a welcome retreat for a midday soak or to unwind at the end of the day. Very impressed and would definitely book again.

Wonderful Thanksgiving
We brought the family together for Thanksgiving and had a wonderful time. Kids ages ranged from 11 to 20 and there was plenty of space for everyone to have their own room. The area was full of activities to enjoy and we had a wonderful time. House was as advertised and more than delivered on the experience we were hoping for.

Great for big Families
Located near a lot of family activities. It’s a nice gated community. The surrounding area is scenic, it’s a quiet neighborhood as well. House rules are clearly indicated and well communicated. Beds are comfortable and the rooms are spacious. The driveway is steep but that seems to be the norm because of the terrain in the area but it’s nicely paved.

Had a great time
We enjoyed our stay. The inside of the house is very nicely decorated, the outside could be a bit more user friendly. The beds were amazing! I do feel like since there was a cleaning fee the house should have been clean upon arrival, and it was not. Overall, we enjoy our time.

Family vacation
We went and stayed with my immediate family (parents,kids and grandkids) 11 of us total. The house was beautiful and there was plenty of space for all of us to sleep and still have our privacy. The location is beautiful and close to lots of fun activities for the kids. We had a great time!

Enjoyed Our Stay
We really enjoyed our Spring Break vacation here. The property was spacious and clean. The only issue was getting up the driveway in a car. Repaving the driveway would help tremendously as there were some potholes at the bottom that made it difficult to navigate.
