Thank you so much for staying with us again! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed Cocoa Cabin just as much the second time around. It's wonderful to hear that the screened-in porch and outdoor spaces helped make your stay special :) Looking forward to your next visit!
We had a great trip and the rental was wonderful! The house had everything we could need and things we didn't even think of. It was geared towards families and the thought and care that went into the spaces to be kid friendly were greatly appreciated. Our boys loved the bunk room, roasting marshmallows and all the games/activities.

I can’t say enough good things about Cocoa cabin. I took my son and his friends away for a few days for spring break and it was the perfect home for us. So well appointed with furniture, the air hockey table the theater room and I so appreciated the coffee and snacks. Beautiful home!!! We would definitely come back to visit.

The house was very comfortable and I it is a very well stocked house. We brought food and the kitchen had everything that we needed to prepare dinner and breakfast for 9 people. It was a very short and busy stay, it would have been nice to have more time. Thank you very much.

This property was a very nice vacation for my families annual ski trip. We enjoyed the property. The kids enjoyed it as well. The property management was in touch if needed. The only downside was the parking on the steep incline to the property driveway. We would definitely rent it again.

Lovely house in a great location (less than ten minutes from the slopes). We loved the different hang-out areas, the younger ones in the group could get loud in the lower level without bothering us oldies. The hottub great to soak in after ski-ing, and the star gazing was wonderful. The kitchen was well equipped. Beds were very comfortable and nice quality towels & linens.

This home was wonderful for our last-minute family reunion - plenty of space, a gas grill for hamburgers, and a great wood-burning fireplace. Our adult (but young-at-heart) kids also enjoyed the game room. We definitely hope to come back!

We had a great stay at Cocoa Cabin. Close to the national park, wineries, etc. and very close to all the resort attractions.
Home was clean and had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. Only complaint was that we had to drive the garbage eight miles up the mountain to take it out. Pretty inconvenient for the premium rental price we paid, but otherwise everything was great.

We had a great stay at the Cocoa Cabin while we visited the Massanutten Waterpark on Spring Break! The location of this home was even closer than the resort properties to the waterpark, and we had so much more space. We had kids of all ages and everyone enjoyed their time and this house was the perfect setup for all of us. Thank you Cocoa Cabin! We hope to return in the future!
