Our host was exceptional in every way. Eliot was flexible and available as we were guests as a giant winter weather storm was predicted. Everything in the house was clean, orderly and as described. There were even some local chocolates to indulge ourselves. Most impressive though was Eliot’s care and compassion. We were in the Harrisonburg area to attend a funeral and every message and question answered was also accompanied by kindness and empathy.

Our oldest daughter and husband and 4 adult children, one fiancé and one girlfriend. The space was very good for all of them. They really liked how clean everything was, kitchen supplies, rec room, that box of Warfels candy and overall layout of the house. Owner Eliot was very prompt in answering any questions.

From the time I booked, I knew we would have a great stay, the host reached out and was very helpful and answered all of my questions immediately. Upon arrival, we were welcomed by a home that was immaculate, comfortable and beautiful decorated. You can tell the owners took great pride in every detail, there was nothing more we could have asked for. We loved everything about the home from relaxing in the comfortable living room to playing competitive rounds of ping pong. There was plenty of room to spread out as well as spacious areas to gather. I hope to have a reason to return to Harrisonburg as I would love to stay here again.

Beat rental ever

This property is beyond fabulous. We have rented places all over the US. The house is in a handy area, perfectly appointed and very well stocked and incredibly clean. There are comfortable beds and 3 baths. This is the best property we have ever rented. The amenities and coffee bar were such a bonus.
