My family and I arrived at Point of View hours prior to the advent of Winter Storm Saturn aka Wintergreen's 100 year snow storm. The house was warm, cozy and comfortable. Slope side access enabled us to ski out the door and down Tyro's slopes. Skiing just does not get any better than that! During the 7 hour storm related power outage, the gas fireplace not only kept us warm but allowed us to boil water for hot tea via the magic of our son in law's boy scout training. By the time the weather cleared we had 18 inches of fresh powder on the slopes (hurray) and piled up against both doors (not so great). Thanks to mom's girl scout training, we had packed a snow shovel and the youngest (and smallest) of us was hoisted out the window to dig us out of the house. By the time the lifts became operational again, we had some of the best skiing ever. On the third day the amazing plow crews had cleared the roads and we were on our way home with fond memories of the storm of the century. Special thanks to owners Tom and Sue for mentoring us through the power outage and for providing almost every conceivable amenity,( excepting snow shovel. :) We will return!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

Your home was the perfect venue for our Girl's Getaway. The accomodations were comfortable, warm and inviting. We spent time on the Blue Ridge Parkway to enjoy the changing of the leaves which were at their peak for our visit. We also had a wonderful time at the Apple Festival at Monticello and bought apples at the Orchard. We also visited local wineries. Thanks again for sharing your home with us and I will be certain to recommend it to any friends heading "north".

My family and I went to Wintergreen for a wedding and had a great time staying here. It is fairly close to the main lodge and has easy access to some nice hiking. The kids enjoyed sleeping in the loft. We plan to return during the ski season.Recommended for: Families with young children.

We really enjoyed our summer get away at Point of View! We left home with temps in the 90's with high humidity...Wintergreen Mountain welcomed us with a cool 78 degree breeze. The house was clean and well maintained. The view was awesome from the back deck. My elderly mother in law appreciated the fact that there are only a few steps to navigate to get in and out of the house. In comparison to other properties we looked at, we felt like this one was a great deal. We hope to return in the near future!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

We spent 3 nights at Point of View. It was great. From our window, we saw a bear, a doe and her fawn, two young bucks, a turkey, and hawks! The cabin was perfect, just as described. The loft was exciting for our little boys. It is a ski-in cabin so we were able to walk out and hike down the mountain and back. We also enjoyed Wintergreen's other amenities, like the pool, shops, restaurant, general store, and Shamokin Falls trail. Even at the end of May/first of June, the fireplace was put to full use! Tom and Sue were extremely helpful to these non-VA natives, especially in regards to bringing warm clothes, hiking, fishing, and swimming! Thanks so much!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

The whole family had a great time in VA and really enjoyed our stay in this well-maintained spacious home. The kids felt at home right away in the loft and we all enjoyed the warmth of the fireplace. The spacious kitchen & eating area was perfect for our group; and the view absolutely beautiful. My sister and I were able to keep our children somewhat on schedule and in their normal environment due to the privacy of a home instead of a hotel...we didn't need to be concerned about waking neighbors and the home rental is also much more cost effective than a hotel for our needs. I would and already have recommended this property to relatives and friends. We had a lovely Mother's Day brunch at the Copper Mine Bistro located within the resort. The Wintergreen resort entrance location was a bit difficult to find in the dark, but obviously we did make it.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, families with teenagers, families with young children.

Cute property! Perfect for ski in and ski out. Even though there was no snow, we had a wonderful time with family and friends! Fireplace is wonderful! The views around the area and out off the deck are quite breathtaking. Good restaurants, friendly people! Lots of games to play with and videos to watch at night. We would recommend to anyone who loves the mountains.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.

We had 3 couples go for weekend of skiing and tubing and had an awesome time. The house was just as described and the views were awesome. We actually were fortunate enough to see some natural snow Friday night while we were there which was nice too. The house was very clean and cozy. Look forward to reserving again for our next ski trip.Recommended for: Families with young children.

Our family had a wonderful Christmas due to this lovely, comfortable home. We felt right at home the minute we walked in. We had not spent Christmas together in 5 years (our son, daughter-in-law, daughter, son-in-law, and grandson) It was very spacious and was very private. Our children live in eastern Virginia and this was a very easy drive for everyone. Not much snow, but we did enjoy all of the aminities that Wintergreen has to offer. Beautiful views, expecially the doe that grazed on the ski slope. I would recommend this home to any family looking for a nice vacation.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2002
About the owner: Tom and Sue live in Northern Virginia with our two boys, Alex (11) and Brian (8) - and Charlie, our adopted dog.
Why the Owner Chose Wintergreen:
Tom has wanted a 'house in the mountains' since he was a kid, and we've always loved Wintergreen's natural and peaceful setting. It's a true getaway. And not only has our family loved being at Point of View over the years, but we've had the pleasure of hosting more than 300 guests who have enjoyed all four seasons at the resort. Some from as far away as England, Ireland and even Saudi Arabia!
We encourage you to check out our 50+ guest comments. And please ask us as many questions as you'd like about the house and resort. We want to make sure Point of View is the right choice for your mountain getaway.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
Point of View offers ski in/out convenience - our front door is 50 feet from the Tyro slope. And our views of the Blue Ridge Mountains beyond the slope make the house perfect for all seasons. We are located on a cul de sac, so there is very little traffic and it's always quiet. There are 2 bedrooms with queen beds and 2 full baths on the main floor and a loft with 3 twin beds upstairs. The house is perfect for one or two families or a girls' or guys' weekend. Kids love the loft, especially the spiral stairs that lead up to it.
