Made of high hills, valleys and rivers, covered with wild flowers, and trees of many species, rich in history, culture, and nature, Blue Mountain Oasis will greet you and take your breath away. Situated on the top of Blue Mountain, an 800 acre mountain reaching up to 2,200 feet, higher than any other mountain in the vicinity, BLUE MOUNTAIN dominates a magnificent country—hills and valleys, fields and forests, rivers and ravines.
It is covered with trees, from the soaring tulip poplar and the majestic oak, to the whispering pine, the charming dogwood and the colorful redbud. Wild flowers abound—the wild anemone, first to appear in the spring, the humble bloodroot, the glamorous trillium, the precious and rare lady’s-slipper. In that enchanting setting, roam a host of wild animals, none dangerous and all interesting to watch—deer, raccoons, woodchucks and squirrels (including the flying variety), grouse, quails and wild ducks, and innumerable other birds which paint flashes of brilliant colors in the air and fill the silence of the woods with their gay and harmonious songs.
Rich in history dating back to the 1800's, Blue Mountain Oasis had Mosby Rangers hiding out on the mountain during the Civil War; escaped slaves found the mountain a place of safety before the Civil War; the battle of Cedar Creek, one of the most decisive of the Civil War, was fought in the Valley just below Blue Mountain and could be viewed from a high point on the mountain. John Marshall, the first chief justice of the USA, lived on the mountain.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2002
Born and raised in Virginia and absolutely love the Shenandoah Valley. I rent 4 units in the valley (personally own 2) and my goal is to offer the BEST vacation for my guests and make them love the valley as much as I. I'm an avid traveler and know what makes me happy from luxury resorts (all over the world) to small VRBO's and put those touches into my rentals. Down to earth, easy going, and will make sure you have what you need and get the most from your vacation. I don't sale, nag, or pester guests but give you what you want: relaxation and privacy.
Family owned and operated, not big business.
Why the Owner Chose Front Royal
I wanted an oasis with an easy drive from Northern VA and Washington DC. This house is 1 hour away. It's a modern house, lots of upgrades, on 2 acres of land (flat!!), with plenty of privacy. It's near the BEST vineyards, downtown Front Royal, and much more. Nearly all guests say, "great location" because it gives plenty of privacy but close to everything.
The Unique Benefits of this House
Privacy, plenty of space, and modern amenities (42" LCD TV, WiFi, Hot Tub, etc.). Sit on the deck in our country rockers, BBQ on the grill, or relax in the hot tub. You will love it.

I wanted to say that we had a wonderful time at your Blue Mountain Oasis this past weekend. It's nice to just get away from the stresses of everyday life, go out to the mountains and truly relax. It was certainly needed.

We loved our retreat to the Blue Mountain Oasis. The big open back yard gave us space to play frisbee and throw the baseball around with our sons, while the dog enjoyed being outside with us. The HD TVs were perfect for hunkering down in the evening for Rounds 2 and 3 of the NCAA Basketball tournament. Happened upon a full moon evening, we watched as it rose up from behind the mountain from the hot tub! Blue Mountain Oasis is situated so close to so many wineries, as well as opportunities to horseback ride. We will definitely be coming back.

We had a wonderful time at Blue Mountain Oasis! Jason provides everything you would need for a fantastic get-away. Blue Mountain Oasis is comfortable, has beautiful views and a lot of entertainment (hot tub, games, direct tv). The house is just far enough up the mountain that you feel like you're getting away from it all, but close enough that you don't have to drive far to get places (downtown Front Royal, wineries, etc). Jason has thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and easy! We can't wait to return or try one of his other properties!
Owner response:We are happy you enjoyed your trip and hope to see you back at Blue Mountain Oasis!
Recommended for:Adventure seekers, romantic getaway, sightseeing, pet owners, girls getaway, families with young children.

Weekend Oasis was a wonderful place to rent a house, from the ease of the booking process, to the excellent directions, to the comfortable house. It was a pleasurable experience all around. Thanks Jason.
