About this property

Large Hot Tub – Outdoor Fireplace – Propane Grill – Pet Friendly - WIFI!

Welcome to the Nut House! This endearing, cozy, two-level home is located on the corner of Holiday Hill directly off Lanier Lane in Massanutten Resort, and s professionally managed by M Power, LLC, the local, premier vacation and rental company in the Elkton area since 2010! The Nut House is perfect for a romantic, family, or friend get-away with its three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Enjoy the large, 6–8-person hot tub on the main deck after enjoying all the Valley and resort has to offer or languish in front of the outdoor propane fireplace while grilling is done on the large propane grill.

** Thanksgiving, Christmastime through New Years Day, and JMU Graduation require a 4-night minimum while other holidays require a 3-night minimum. **

Enter the Nut House via an electronically locked door. Directly to the right of the entry way is a large closet where guests may store coats or shoes. Also to the right is the first queen bedroom with a closet and dresser for storage.
At the end of the hall is the large queen suite bedroom that offers plenty of natural light, storage, a full en-suite bathroom, and views of the woods behind the home (perfect for watching deer and other wildlife stroll by!).
To the left of the entryway is the great room which offers an inviting living room with large windows and doors leading to the main level deck, dining area that seats six, and a perfectly quaint kitchen. The kitchen offers all basic cooking essentials as well as stainless steel appliances and plenty of countertops for prep work. There is also an eat-in bar.
During the winter months, snuggle up on the comfortable living room furniture while watching TV and enjoying a fire in the propane fireplace (Seasonal use only - October 31st through March 30th). Off the main level living room is a sprawling deck that offers ample room for entertainment. Between the propane grill, propane fireplace, spacious hot tub, and woodsy views, there is plenty for everyone!
Back inside and down a short flight of stairs, is the basement level that offers an additional full bathroom, bedroom with two twin beds, open living room with plenty of seating, mounted TV, and games. There is also a children’s table with two chairs and a queen-sized futon for additional sleeping arrangements. Please note the fireplace on this level is ONLY for looks - please do NOT burn anything inside.

Outside this living room is a mounted canoe that guests may use with permission (any loss or damage to the canoe is subject to a replacement fee by the guest). A set of outdoor stairs makes getting up to the main level deck a breeze.

The house was clean and certainly provided us with what we needed for a long weekend stay. Negative….the next door neighbor’s dog barking which kept us from enjoying the hot tub and patio.

Great Place

We went with our dog for a weekend. The place was great and comfortable. We enjoyed the hot tub, closeness to beautiful hike trails, and the big fenced back yard where the dog could run around until he tired himself out. Only real complaints is the main bedroom's mattress is a bit too soft, but there's a firmer mattress in the other room.

First Christmas away

It was our first Christmas away from home. I was thinking about where to put the presents for the kids, but the house even had a Christmas tree. The house was super clean and well equipped. It was very homey and comfortable. We had a wonderful time.
