Wonderful property

We spent a peaceful (if rainy!) week here to celebrate our wedding anniversary. This home is beautiful, bright, very clean and comfortable. This was by far the best appointed kitchen of any rental in which we have stayed (and we have used VRBO for many years on multiple continents). Highly recommend this home!

Great retreat near Shenandoah

Was a wonderful trip to get a way for a few days and enjoy the outdoors. The host, Michael, is extremely friendly and knowledgeable of all the key places you’ll not want to miss out on. The home is beautiful, clean and quiet. I wish we had more time to spend and explore the area. Hoping to have a repeat trip in the future with more than three days to spend in the area. Thank you Michael!

Beautiful, secluded hideaway near SNP

We just loved this beautiful home and the private setting. Most days we had deer and their fawns come eat from the apple tree while we enjoyed the screened porch. The home had every amenity we could hope for and it was beautifully decorated. The owners were wonderful and supportive even though our travel plans got rerouted several times due to airline mishaps. Supplies and a nice restaurant were 5 minutes away and more extensive choices were only 20 minutes away in Madison. But we especially enjoyed the easy access to Shenandoah National Park.

We had a wonderful 3 day getaway

This house is very much more than advertised. Michael gave us a tour of the house which gave us a sense of what was available and where everything was located. The kitchen was well provided - not that we used it very much - we were out most of the days and got meal while we were running around. Everyone was impressed with the house and pleased that we Michael would share it with us. Thanks Michael.

Amazing Christmas Getaway

What a wonderful, beautiful place to spend time with family. Everything was laid out perfectly, and the attention to detail was meticulous. The owner was attentive to our needs, and gave us a tour of the house and history of the area before we settled in. The backyard swing allowed our older teen and young adult child to play. We were super close to White Oak Canyon Trail, and old rag as well as Graves Mountain Lodge, which we hit on the way out for a delicious breakfast. Beds were cozy, adult coloring books and games provided entertainment and kitchen was stocked for all our cooking needs. We will be back!
