Great Massanutten Family Retreat
This is a very nice property so close to the slopes at Massanutten. We were a multi-family group of all ages from 10-73 and we had a lovely time and were very comfortable in the home. The kids had lots of room to play and be loud in the lower level while the adults took over the main floor and every family/couple had their own bedroom which was great! And who doesn't love to relax in a hot tub after a day of skiing? We had everything we needed in the kitchen and even games to keep us further occupied when we had downtime. Highly recommend this mountain getaway.

About the host

Hosted by David Costenbader

Host profile image
I grew up in VA Beach and I am a dog owner as my family travelled frequently to the Blue Ridge Mountains surrounding the Massanutten area, buying property nearby in the late 1970s. I learned to ski at Massanutten Resort and acquired a deep sense of love for the area and it's many outdoor activities. I bought the home in 2020 from a friend of mine that I grew up with and it is great to be back in the beautiful Blue Ridge mountains!

Why they chose this property

Rainier Lodge is newly renovated and perfectly positioned within Massanutten Resort to walk to many of the activities available year round.

What makes this property unique

Located near the mountain top, Rainier Lodge has a view of the slopes from the back deck and a sense of calm and serenity which we all can use more of these days! Great place to recharge your batteries, get out into nature and also conduct any business (if you must!) or home schooling with the fast WIFI network through XFinity.
