Reviews
Piece of peace
3/5 The home listed offered us a home away from our home. Thoughtful amenities abound the house and really offered us a peaceful time. Kids (two teenagers and a preteen) enjoyed the swing, the backyard view of the mountains and the excursions to Shenandoah national park. The house comfortably accommodated our family of six. Would definitely try to revisit on a return trip.

Manager's Response:
Hi Narasim, thanks for your review! We're glad you enjoyed your stay at this house. If there is anything we can do to provide a 5-star experience, please don't hesitate to reach out!
5/5 We loved the fact that this home was only about a 12 minute drive to one of the 4 entrances to Shenandoah National Park. We went into the park 4 different times, including a sunset viewing the last night of our stay, which was awesome. Home was very clean and lovely. Our family said it was one of the best VRBO's we have stayed at and we have stayed at quite a few. Wifi was good for our son who is a gamer. Our daughter loved the outside fire pit. Kitchen was well equipped. My husband loved the front room where he could sit and read and look at the mountains.

Wonderful home!
5/5 We stayed at this lovely home Aug 2023. Wonderful views of mountains of Shenandoah National Park. My husband loved the front room with a comfy chair/ottoman where he could read and look at the mountains. With having 2 young adult children with us, having 3 bedrooms was a definite plus. House was very clean and had a well equipped kitchen. Large screen TV in the living room had lots of channels. Good Wifi for our son who is a gamer. Our daughter had a fire one evening at the outside fire pit, which was very nice. We visited Monticello and Luray Caverns as well as Shenandoah National Park. Being only about 12 minute drive to one of the parks 4 entrances was so convenient. Went into the park the last night we were there and captured wonderful sunset views. This was one of the nicest VRBO's we have stayed in, and we have stayed in quite a few.
Perfect
5/5 Very well kept .Relaxing away from the busy city life.
