AmandaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Overall was a great location to anyone wanting to enjoy the outdoors since the National Forest was nearby with gorgeous views! Or even enjoy all that the resort area offered! House was clean and the host was always made sure to get back to us about any questions that may have come up. Our kids loved that there was a game area as well that they could watch tv or game without having to give up the TV for the adults to watch TV.

Pet-Friendly Country Farm House on Pond

PamelaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Our 3 nights stay at Golden Meadows Farm was wonderful! It far exceeded our expectations. Richard, our host, had even prepared for the last minute addition of our family dog. A water bowl was filled and waiting for her. The large fenced-in yard spaces were gated and secure, very well maintained, and a joy for our dog and the grand kids to run and play. The pond and surrounding grounds are beautiful and well landscaped. Richard was always available if we needed anything. He even gave us a dozen of his "home raised" eggs, which we all enjoyed for breakfast. The farm house was clean and well equipped with anything you might need during your stay. The beds and linens were very comfortable. My 4 year old granddaughter asked if we could live there :) We hope to be able to return to Richard and Julie's farm for another visit to the beautiful state of Virginia.

Cozy 2BR Cabin w/Hot Tub, Fire Pit Near Shenandoah

SophiaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had the most wonderful weekend at Michael’s cabin! From the moment we arrived, I could tell how much care and thought had gone into making guests feel comfortable. The bathroom was stocked with such thoughtful toiletries - a nice touch that made us feel right at home. The bed was also very comfortable, and we slept well each night. The cabin’s modern decor is beautiful and really elevated the whole experience - it felt cozy yet stylish. The location is beautiful: quiet, peaceful, and surrounded by nature. It was the perfect escape, and we loved waking up to the sounds of birds and fresh air. Michael was a fantastic host, always quick to respond and friendly in his communication. We really appreciated the detailed online guide he provided for the cabin and the local area - it made everything so easy, from check-in to finding great spots nearby. I highly recommend Michael’s cabin. If you’re looking for a relaxing, beautifully designed retreat with a host who truly goes above and b

My niece and I - and our 2 pups - thoroughly enjoyed our stay and a chance to have some quiet bonding time. (We live in separate cities and sadly don’t get to see each other often). The house is so lovely and the fenced-in yard was perfect for the pups. We would love to return again soon. Thank you!

The cabin is beautiful and had plenty of room for us (6 adults, 3 kids & 1 infant). Everything was exactly how it is pictured! The hosts couldn’t have been nicer & were very accommodating. Location was perfect for all that we wanted to see including Luray Caverns & hiking Shenandoah National Park.

Private Couples getaway with HOT TUB.

ArielRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This place is so so special. Book it and you will not regret it! The cabin is very clean. The grounds feel very safe, private and secluded on the property. The sounds of the creek, and birds really add to the peacefulness of the escape. The add ons are well worth it and look like someone really cared and took their time to prepare for you. This was a surprise for boyfriend’s birthday and he was so happy and felt right at home. Grateful The bathroom was very clean but is about 40feet away out doors so pack a comfy warm robe, slides and a lantern or flashlight (to light the way) in case you need to quickly go in the middle of the night. I liked the experience of it being outside overall. Fire pit and grill seemed easy to work. The hosts are super responsive. If you want to sleep in a little I’d recommend an eye mask as the cabin brings in lots of natural light as the sun rises. We loved our stay and will absolutely be back for a longer stay!

Luxurious Cabin By the Creek! Inground pool! Spa!

JaclynRating, 5 stars5 days ago
The cabin was really nice with comfortable accommodations and everything you need. There is a road that runs in front of and behind the cabin that has quite a bit of traffic on the weekend as the road is an entrance to a park/campground and it was a holiday weekend. This was a benefit to us though as we love to hike and could walk to or drive within a couple of minutes to several really great trails! Having the heated in ground pool for my daughter was amazing and when we had some issues with Bees the owners handled it right away. This is definitely a cabin in the woods by the water so come prepared with bug repellant. We did venture out to some local wineries and a lavender farm/winery but would have been just as content to enjoy the cabin and the property! Overall we really enjoyed this place and would totally go back when we are visiting the Harrisonburg area.

6BR Modern Massanutten Chalet with Hot Tub, Sauna

KarinRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Great place and fun for the family. Clean, well-designed and loved that everything was there… from kitchen seasonings to shampoo/conditioner… very convenient and saves time and money on all the little things you have to pack/buy. The guidebook was super helpful and we took a couple of the restaurant suggestions - Hank’s BBQ and Ciro’s Italian are great local places! One small recommendation is to include a note in the Guidebook about paying attention to the Fire Risk sign. We didn’t know and had the propane table on the deck going. Security came and told us; they were super understanding and knew we were renters, but we definitely felt bad about our mistake 🤦‍♀️. Overall five stars!

Our Happy Place

CaseyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Sarah's place was perfect for a quick weekend getaway! It was rainy and cold during our stay, so we didn't get to use the outdoor space as much as we'd like. However, the inside was perfectly cozy and beautifully decorated! It was a great spot to relax, turn off our phones, and just enjoy being together. We will definitely be back, and hopefully have warmer weather next time!
