We stayed here for a friend's getaway with 6 different couples, some with kids (baby/toddler aged). It was the perfect location for our needs! The kitchen was well stocked, the rooms were spacious and clean, the home's design was beautiful and the location was perfect. There's a small playground in walking distance, a pond across the street, and of course many amenities as a part of the resort or nearby. It was the perfect spot for our friend reunion and I'd highly recommend booking!

Our group of 10 had a wonderful autumn getaway at Chris's place. The house was comfortable and had everything we needed to cook amazing meals, relax, and rest. The baby friendly amenities made packing for our little one super easy.

We had a wonderful stay. The inside and outside had plenty to keep us entertained. Our group loved the back deck (which is very private) with comfortable seating, outdoor TV, sauna, and hot tub. The inside is beautiful with a great layout. Everyone enjoyed the pool tables and video game tables. The surrounding area is beautiful. Close to Shenandoah NP with lots of beautiful hiking trails. There are many great wineries and breweries all within a short distance. I highly recommend this beautiful home.

An excellent place to get away and have a fun and relaxing trip! My friends and I stayed here for a boys trip to go hiking in the Shenandoah and right away we felt right at home! The house was private, clean, had plenty of entertainment, and was very comfortable and relaxing for all 6 of us. Chris and Amy were super friendly and helpful hosts who made sure we had everything we needed and made sure our experience was the best it could be! Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to visit the Massanutten area and would stay again!
