Just What We Needed!
Every year over the weekend after Halloween, my family and the family of dear friends seek out some cooler temperatures and beautiful foliage in the mountains of Massanutten. This year we stumbled upon Margarita Villa and enjoyed every minute of our 4 days! There was ample space for 8 people (everyone had their own bed), plenty of parking, and lots of activities for the evening hours with the air hockey and pool tables and hot tub. We were greated every morning by a large buck who would graze on what was left of the grass while we sipped coffee and had breakfast. A quick drive to the resort and all of the amenities that offered, the cabin was also close to town, major roads, and so many of the other activities that draw you to the countryside. We were excited for a pet friendly rental with reasonable fees and Spud the dog enjoyed all the smells the woods afforded. It was a great weekend and we're excited to plan our trip for next year!

It was a pleasant stay and we had a good time. The hot tub should had better instructions. The projector did not work which was a shame since it is a beautiful multi-level theater room. The 2 sofa beds is the theater were shorter than a twin. Be careful about parking because what looks like the owners area is a no parking zone. One of the guest had a warning on his windshield. The air hockey table was sub par. There is a warning about getting a $75 fee for not taking the trash out. We had to pack it in the car and drop off at the club house. Some complained about the internet but it worked fine for me. I was little surprised because there were a lot of excellent reviews. My advice is to reach out the management service immediately if needed.

Nice House
We rented this house for 2 families with 4 kids. It worked out great. Plenty of room and the house was very clean. The theatre room is huge a great place for kids to hang out. Only wierd thing is the lack of doors on the bathrooms in the 2 king bed bedrooms. No privacy. Kinda wierd but not a huge deal. The communication from property manager was fantastic. Any question was answered within 15 minutes. It is very convenient to so many great places (Shenandoah National Park, Massanutten, water parks, ect). I would definitely recommend.

Great home away from home
My family and I enjoyed our stay at the property. Great location. It was spacious, organized and clean on the inside for the most part. The master bedroom with whirlpool tub and large walk in shower was beautiful! The theater room was an awesome feature. It would’ve been even better had the surround sound been functioning properly. The outside of the home could use more care and attention, the decks in particular. The second feature that drew us to this property was the hot tub. Unfortunately , we did not get much use out of it. When we arrived it wasn’t clean and the the water level was too low. However, once a call was placed, a service technician was out the next morning. Communication was great. Plenty of decent dining options on the resort and in the surrounding area. If you’re planning to cook the kitchen is well stocked with all the essential equipment. There’s a supermarket less than 15 minutes away.

Great family getaway!
There was something for everyone with lots of elbow room. We couldn’t have imagined a better environment to relax, unwind, and connect with family. Pool table, hot tub, games, theater room, air hockey, spacious yard (we put up a three person hammock that the kids loved), private balcony, clean, well-stocked kitchen with many appliances. Plenty to do in the area as well… caverns, zip-lining, horseback riding, shopping, escape room, even white water rafting. Communication/responsiveness with the owners was prompt and courteous. Would definitely stay again!

Quiet retreat.
We enjoyed the house. Very clean. Nice setting. We wanted to stay in a 5 BR house. This was listed as 5 BRs, but there were only 4. They appeared to be claiming that the Theater Room was a bedroom. There were two fold out chairs in the room, but certainly not meant for sleeping in all night. The MBR on the first level has its own bathroom with a curtain as a door. Definitely needs a real door. Also, didn't really care for the ROKU TVs. We actually had to get a 30 day subscription to be able to watch the final NCAA basketball game in the theater room. Kids loved the pool table and hot tub.There were good activities for the kids and adults. Some pretty good restaurants in the area, also.

While I read the many great reviews about this rental, I was even more impressed with the house. The location to the ski resort was so nice-less than 10 minutes away.

Great Location, Large Home
This home has lots of room to spread out. The kitchen is wonderful in that it has a double dishwasher and double oven. All the necessary equipment was there, we found that it was hard to find things to store leftovers in, so bring your own baggies or roll of Saran Wrap to cover containers. We had a few issues that we told the owners about: The games were mostly broken or missing pieces, the air hockey table was not working when we first arrived, it was quickly fixed so it was playable; however, the scoring system still didn't work...that being said we still enjoyed it. There were two washer/dryers in the house which is great when there are a lot of people. We did have an issue with the lower level dryer on our last night which I hope will have been fixed quickly. The master bedroom was amazing. Great bed, amazing shower and jacuzzi, lots of space. The bedrooms all had lots of space. The towels and bedding was plentiful and we had a sufficient supply of start up toilet paper, paper towel, and hand soap. I did not use the hot tub, but the young adults in our party who did said that it probably needs a deep cleaning because it felt sandy in it. Also, the deck off the master bedroom probably could use a deep cleaning. The intererior of the home was meticulous and we felt that it was warm and welcoming. We were about 20 min from a Walmart which was great to buy perishables and there were lots of restaurants in the area. We felt the location was perfect for our needs.

Nice spacious Massanutten home
This is a beautifully designed mountain property with ample space and lots of amenities. The kitchen is huge and perfect for multiple families to use at the same time. The billiards room with overlooking wet bar is a great place to socialize and hang out. The upper level has a colossal master bedroom, jetted tub and enormous shower. Last but certainly not least is the theater room which was enjoyed by both the grown ups and the little kids alike. The house is located about one mile past the entrance to the resort, so it is convenient to both the water park as well as the snow sports. We had a great time staying here and the kids loved the place. The only recommendation I have is to install a door between the downstairs MBR and the bathroom. This is particularly important when multiple families with kids of varying ages are staying together.
