Comfortable stay in the mountains
My family stayed here for my daughter’s JMU graduation. The house is very cozy and spacious and we were all quite comfortable. we had a small issue with the tub that was rectified within hours. if I were to stay again, I would bring some items such as garbage bags (we couldn't find any other than the one), toilet paper (glad we brought some), dawn dish soap, sponge and sugar/sweetener - those items we had to buy surprisingly. Towels were provided which was sweet! Cable TV was appreciated.

Comfortable for a large group
Great place for family weekend with lots of space. The house could use some attention as there are numerous structural and cosmetic issues. The deck is sketchy for sure. Raccoons visiting the deck at night was fun entertainment.

Family Winter Trip
This house was spacious enough for our large blended family. The fenced in backyard is a huge plus, the fireplace was awesome. There are minor things that could be fixed eventually but it wouldn’t prevent me from booking again. Thank you for the hospitality and open communication!

Weekend get away
I have a group of friends, we all love the house, and we all are enjoying our weekend getaway. There is a big space for a group like me. But when i get in to the house the floor is a bit dirty i couldn't find and supplies for cleaning only one broom and there is a water leak from the rain into on of the room. Overall we are really enjoying our time at the house. Looking forward to go again next year. That would be great if the person who's responsible for communication replies the phone calls faster than this.

Wedding weekend
We were in Massanutten for my daughter's wedding. The bridal party got ready in the house before the ceremony. Plenty of room and natural light that pleased the photographer, makeup artist and hairstylist. The house was just right for our needs.

Beautiful views!
The house was wonderful and everything we expected. We had plenty of room for all of us. We all enjoyed the Fall trees and seeing the deer walking around. It was so nice to have everything within a few minutes drive. The Campfire Grill has awesome food and the atmosphere is so comfortable. The kids enjoyed the Water Park and all it offered. Would come back for a visit and thank you for opening up your house for us.

in Spite of the gravel drive way and the compressor going out we had fun
The house was lovely! We enjoy the house. Our refrigerator went out and we had to buy bags of ice to keep our uncooked food from spoiling . We had no where to keep our cooked food from going bad. The drive way is not pave and our trucks got stuck on the gravel . The only way we could get our trucks out of the gravel drive way was to ride on the grass, which we were not supposed to do. So we parked our 4 vehicles along the road side and the officer told us to make sure that the tires were off the road. Which we did . The house we enjoy !

Not as Expected for Money
This house was a good size for our group Homecoming weekend so everyone was able to have their own room. However, some issues - we found out via the check-in instructions and directions email that no towels (bath or hand), garbage bags, paper towels, toilet paper, dish or hand soap would be provided...we brought those items but still for the money we paid I’d at least expect a roll of toilet paper per bathroom and bath towels. Additionally, the master bathroom shower head is pretty gross because of hard water build up so very low flow/water pressure. Also looked like mold in shower so gave overall impression things weren’t clean. Very thin blanket on master bedroom bed. Couldn’t find additional blankets unless borrowed from other rooms. Expected more for the amount of money paid for two nights. Hotels charge less and have towels, hand soap and toilet paper.

Thank you, we enjoyed our stay!
We had an age range from 6 weeks to 60 year olds. The home was as advertised, no hot tub; the jacuzzi jets did not turn on, but worked great as a large soaking tub - the 3 year old loved bath time in there. The refrigerator was not clean and the gate along the fenced in yard did not close completely. The gate did not bother us as we did not bring pets and the toddlers were not going near the gate and were never left unattended. We would suggest an upgrade on the beds for a more comfortable sleep, more chairs for the nice large dining room table. The kitchen was well stocked, including a toaster and a crockpot. We would suggest adding a keurig and a waffle iron. We did not use the indoor or outdoor grill. The house was at a comfortable temperature with the exception of the converted room, which was too warm in the summer. We would also suggest some toddler toys at toddler level and a gate for the stairs. The resort had plenty to do, but limited hours. The community pool was wonderful for people of all ages. The teens loved the diving board. The toddlers liked the kiddie pool and the shallow ends of the large pool. The pool was well attended by lifeguards, large enough for lap swim exercising and appeared to have a designated lap lane. The kids easily made friends at the pool. The miniature golf course was beautiful. The girls said the summer tubing was fast... heard many people say it was faster than a water slide... the boys said it wasn't fast enough.
