ARRIVAL/PARKING

When pulling up to the property most guests will want to park up on the street around the flat-circle area as the driveway is steep and requires 4WD in all months. The street parking around the circle can accommodate approximately 4-vehicles. The bottom of the driveway can accommodate another 2 or 3 vehicles with careful arrangement. We have a 50A plug outside of the garage that can be used for electric vehicle charging. (BYO-charging cord/plug)

MAIN FLOOR
----------------

As you step through the front door into the living room, you’ll need a second to take in the open feeling created by the soaring windows and ceilings. The tongue and groove ceilings, and chinook wood walls give the home a rustic feeling while the new furnishings and decor bring in the perfect mix of modern comfort. The original wood floors in the home were preserved during renovation as they had been sourced from an old Mennonite barn that can be seen in the photos next to the kitchen. These were re-finished with a clear coat to bring them back to life, but the amazing history of the barn remains!

Great spot
We had a great Thanksgiving weekend! Football and movie in the theater, sauna and hot tub to relax, the indoor waterpark, closeby hikes, and plenty of space for everyone to spread out and get together.

Beautiful spacious home with so many amenities!
We vacation in Massanutten every spring for my sons birthday. This house was perfect! From the billiard room, game room, and theater room, and hot tub, so much to do. The theater was such an added touch to make the trip very special. The bedrooms were all so beautiful. Great house for a large group or just family.

Beautiful huge home with tons of fun games!
This home was absolutely fantastic. Host offers fabulous communication, a great “home guide” and an easy check in/check out. My group was all adult couples for a family getaway/reunion. We loved lounging in the theatre room, enjoying the outdoor decks, which are well furnished for a big group, and relaxing in the hot tub. Beds were insanely comfortable and linens were ample. House was super clean, kitchen great for group cooking and dining together as a family. I highly recommend this home for a big group. I hope we can come back again!
