We were here for a week and everything was amazing. The beds were comfy, it was clean, and had everything we needed for a great stay. It’s located at Massanutten Resort property and there is lots to see and do. We highly recommend staying here! This is a true home away from home. Thank you so much!!

Wonderful mountain retreat!! The entire place was spotless, well-decorated, cozy, quiet, and safe. Though I was only there for 1 night, it was certainly a place I would rent again for easy access to enjoying Massanutten. It had a lovely view of the mountain ridge from the deck, too. My only concern was the floor in the master bathroom seems to need remodeling because it was on a serious slant, but that was not seen or felt elsewhere in the unit.

Clean townhouse. Carpet seems old and there was a musty spell through the entire place. But for one night and quick access to the slopes and local eateries it was well worth it.

What a great place! It was very clean and very well stocked. I can not recommend this place enough. The communication with the owner was great and she is very prompt at answering questions and checking on you. We brought way to much “extras” that we didn’t need because it had everything we needed and more.

Massanutten Stay

The space and location were perfect for a pre-wedding celebration for three adult children and my mom. The townhouse was cozy and comfortable. We loved sitting on the back deck. The beds were comfortable — and plenty of bathrooms. We had a wonderful two-night stay, and our host was very responsive.

Great short getaway, first time at Massenutten

Perfect place to stay with family or friends. Very close to activities, wish it was a little warmer to enjoy the porches.Very accommodating host - late check out was very helpful and was able to postpone our stay due to an illness.Carefully drive up and down to the front door from main road, we scrapped a few times.

Wonderful weekend at Massanutten

The house was perfect for our family with two young children and a dog. Plenty of space and a great layout was even nicer than the pictures. It was a total bonus that there were some toys that our toddlers loved playing with. Location was super convenient to both the ski area and water park. Will definitely stay here again!
