Relaxing mountain retreat

The property is as advertised, excellent view, very private, with abundant wildlife. Saw a black bear on our next to last day, several rabbits live on the periphery, as well as numerous song birds. The hot tub is very relaxing and the property is only about three miles from town!

Wonderful retreat in the mountains!

This property immediately went to the top of the list of all the rental properties that we've ever stayed at! The house is beautiful and very well maintained, with plenty of room to spread out, and gorgeous views. The owners are very hospitable and friendly. We had four people, but the property could easily accommodate several more comfortably. We'd definitely go back if we ever visit Shenandoah again!

Excellent property

This home was everything and more. We enjoyed our stay here. Easy proximity to SNP, fine dining and wineries. Recommend Rappenoch Winery and Houndstooth Resturant. We did not find the appeal of The Applehouse. You need your own firewood if you want a fire. The found the property to be quite private with beautiful scenery just as the pictures on the web site show.

Couldn't be Happier

The property was as beautiful as we imagined it would be. the three of us (all in our 80s) enjoyed our separate bedrooms. The view was spectacular! We loved rafting the Shenandoah River. I have never been in a rental vacation property that had as many amenities as this one! Very impressive! We loved the hot tub under starry skies. Highly recommend!!

Friends Reunion Weekend

Wonderful property and excellent communication from the hosts, Asad and Erica. We loved the baby deers, groundhogs, birds, beautiful views and shooting stars. Additional helpful things to know ahead of the visit is that there is a bbq but there is no guarantee there will be propane as it is not supplied by the host. Also, there was minimal toilet paper so if we were to stay again, we would bring a 6 pack of TP. For towels we only were provided six for the entire visit, which was challenging since we used the hot tub. Asad shared that typically extra towels are left on the kitchen counter but was an oversight by the cleaning crew. As you can see these issues did not lessen our rating and we enjoyed our weekend greatly!

Peaceful, beautiful Getaway in the Bear Mountain Lodge ❤️

Thank you Asad and Erika, my fiance and I had an amazing few days on top of the beautiful mountains. The house was beautiful, very clean, fully stocked, and I enjoyed the adorable Bear theme through out the home, so many details! So inviting, warm and even had a beautiful piano. There was various games and activities in the home, not to mention about 15 minutes from downtown! Great location! We enjoyed the amazing views, and the peace! We even hired an amazing local photographer Joe Stein photography, who came to the home and took our engagement photos with the beautiful mountains in the background. Highly recommend Joe, if you are looking for a wonderful, passionate photographer. We enjoyed quite of few meals at the Apple House! Bear Mountain lodge is definitely a piece of paradise, we highly recommend this beautiful home! Thank you again Asad from start to finish he was so quick to answer all of my questions, he called me right after booking introduced himself, gave me quite a few recommendations, lots of ideas of things to see and do, restaurants to visit. So wonderful, and easy to talk to, and told us if we needed anything to let him know. 10 Star Experience. We will definitely like to visit again!

Great location for Shenandoah, terrific view

My friends and I really enjoyed our getaway to Shenandoah and stay at Bear Mountain Lodge. The home was perfect for our needs. It was well stocked with utensils, and very comfortable (with lots of bear decor!). The home features stunning views of the surrounding hills and you can hear sounds of the stream below. The home has ample outdoor seating as well as indoor entertainment (games and tv). We recommend Rappahannock Cellars, which is just a short drive away, and of course Skyline Drive and Shenandoah hiking.
