We enjoyed a beautiful Fall weekend at the Nut House. The scenery was gorgeous and the location convenient to JMU. The house was cozy with plenty of room for everyone. Just wish we could have stayed longer than a weekend!

Nice house!

The property is located in a beautiful part of Virginia. The owners were very friendly and helpful. My only complaints were that there were no dish clothes or towels to clean or dry the dishes and the upstairs was very dusty. We found food under the beds.

Hi Joel, First, I am sorry you felt your experience was anything less than perfect. I am sending you a PM, please let me know if I can do anything further to resolve your comments. I am glad that the space, size, set up and location worked for your group. We had not hosted 10 before, so I am glad to know it was comfortable for you. Dust/Crumbs are absolutely not OK, and does not meet my expectations. Surface dust is likely from the residue from our cleaning service, a disinfectant is dispersed via steamer to hard/soft surfaces. Sometimes it creates a dust/film will set on surfaces. I usually catch those things when I do the walk through, but I am out of commission for a few weeks as I am in a leg cast. Since my husband is doing all the work right now, I realized he needs a better list than the one I wrote, which say 2 things on it: 1. wine 2. coffee. Though those things are clearly important, I think we need a walk through checklist. I am working on that now and have scheduled a meeting with our cleaning team. We do keep additional towels in the hall closets. At this time, I made some notes on extra linens/supplies at this time. I have added kitchen towels to the checklist. I am working to address your concerns and hope we can surprise you with fresh updates in a future stay. Thanks for choosing our home and for telling me of your experience. - Elise

Mountain Adventure!

The house was well-stocked with all of your basic everyday needs. Plenty of space for everyone to spread out and relax. The porch in the back of the house was our favorite hang out spot. Everyday we enjoyed watching the deer. We even got to see fawns the one evening. Would highly recommend for larger families!

Great vacation

The house was perfect for myself, husband and 3 kids. So much space that we weren't on top of each other. Quiet neighborhood. One night my 7 year old played with the little boy across street for over an hour. Great location. Zip lining was so fun and the c&m carriage ride is a must do. Everything was perfect. We had 2 deer eatting in the back yard, lizard hanging out on the deck, chipmunk playing on the rocks and a turtle.

Very Nice Property For A BIG Family.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The bedrooms were comfortable and the layout was great for our needs. Very clean, spacious, had a lot of amenities, great location, indoor and outdoor eating options, and great communication with the host. Dissappointed about the no shower in master bathroom, only two tv's (main areas), no bunk bed options (for kid option), small grill, and huge hill for driveway (make sure you have 4 wheel drive). We will definitely rent again from this host because despite of the dissappointments we know not everywhere is a perfect stay and great things outweighed the not so great things! It worked for us!

Hi Tyler! I am confused. You said how beautiful the house was and we communicated within minutes of any question you had prior and during your stay. I'm sorry you are upset that we were not able to accommodate your request to refund you part of the cleaning fee because you didn't use the whole house. But again, you requested this AFTER your stay and AFTER we already paid our cleaning staff. Best of luck! Elise
