About this property
Mid-Century Modern: Pet Friendly-Hot Tub~Grill~Creekside
Stylish and hip, The Nut House is located in the heart of Massanutten Resort, Virginia, yet surrounded by trees and mountains offering privacy and serenity.
Offering a main level great room with floor to ceiling windows, gourmet kitchen, dining area, TV nook, and deck overlooking woods with babbling creek. The three bedrooms offer the following configuration: main-level, king-bedded master (1 K) and two upstairs bedrooms (1Q and 2T). Linens and towels included.
The upper deck has views of the slopes and a babbling brook running under - it's a perfect way to end a day of skiing or hiking! Seating for 6 and a Weber grill (propane provided). The lower deck features an outdoor hot tub.
Our home is very warm and inviting, with comfortable furnishings offering a classic retro mid-century modern decor. We have had a great time traveling to estate sales for authentic and whimsical pieces that continue to delight our guests. But we have not forgotten modern conveniences...wifi, cable flat screen TV, dishwasher, washer/dryer, air conditioning, DVD player, iHome, etc.
The kitchen boasts anything a chef could need - offering both Keurig and drip coffee makers, toaster oven, blender, crock pot, hand mixer, ice maker, microwave, and Henckel knives.
And we make it easy: house includes all the “under the kitchen sink” necessities so you do not have to pack all the boring stuff. So we keep stocked for our guests: starter paper towels and toilet paper, dish soap, scrubbies/sponges, dishwasher detergent, dish towels, napkins, trash bags, disinfectant cleaner, coffee filters, tin foil, saran wrap, baggies, spices, cooking spray, salt/pepper, and laundry detergent.
We provide linens/pillows for all beds. When you arrive you will find they are all made up for you, ready to go! We also provide 6 bath towels; bring hot tub towels if needed.
One final benefit of renting from us is our 10-page House Info Sheet. It details everything about the house, resort, restaurants, shopping, wineries, hiking emergency information, and more! Whether you have been to Massanutten or not, you will find all sorts of insider information on how to get the most out of your vacation!
Ideally located in the resort, minutes from on-site resort amenities: skiing, year-round tubing hill, ice skating, zipline, indoor/outdoor waterpark (biggest on the East Coast!), terrific hiking, golf courses, driving range, horseback riding, mini golf, racecars, bumper cars, playgrounds, outdoor pool, summer concerts, and more! Some amenities are weather dependent. Please check the resort website for the up-to-date schedule.
The community pool is open Memorial Day through Labor Day. We have purchased the Premium Pass allowing Free Access for all guests. It is a lovely pool with diving board, lounging space and well-stocked snack bar. Not all homes offer pool access, so be sure to ask if this is an amenity you plan to use.
One pet allowed with owner approval with a $100 pet fee. Wown our homes and choose to self manage as we are committed to providing a level of service and guest experience that is superior to any other. We have hundreds of 5 Star Reviews! Please read them - folks love the attention to detail and excellent customer service we provide our guests. We strive to make this the best vacation house you have ever stayed in! Come enjoy our little slice of paradise at The Nut!!
