Kevin was a wonderful host - very helpful and communicative. The house was such a fun house, well appointed for families with kids and pets. We did fun activities in the area and enjoyed hanging out at the house in between!

Great house in a great location. Wonderful getaway for our three generation family vacation (ages 13-85 plus a dog). We really loved the deck, fire pit and hot tub plus the nearby nature trail loop. Cooking for our crowd was easy, and there were multiple places for different groups to hang out. The weather was too wet to do as much outdoors as we wanted but there were lots of things to keep us busy in the house (puzzles, movies, baking, hot tub, games). Highly recommend this great house in Wintergreen Resort.

House was clean and well appointed. This is a great family house with kid and arcade-type games and various spots to hang out. Communications with the hosts were exceptional. Walking distance to a short nature trail. Perfect for a family with a dog or two! Hosts provided keirig coffee and liquid soap/dispensers for soap and shampoo. Fire wood available and gas tanks for grill and fire pit. Loved the hot tub! Overall, a very nice place!

We stayed at Kevin’s house with our college kids and lab Ruby. Everyone had a great time and it was perfect for us. Lots of space, comfortable, and near some hiking paths that kept us all busy and the dog tired. We would definitely stay again!

Great stay!

The house was clean and had everything we needed. It was close to a short hike that connected to other longer hikes which was great for our family and the different hiking options we needed. It was also nice that we could bring our dogs along!

This was one of the best VRBO experiences I’ve had. Our group of 10 (annual couples trip) had plenty of space, were able to enjoy the outdoors/firepit area, deck, and the variety of living area. The house was equipped with everything you could possibly need. We will definitely plan another trip here.

Family Vacation

Owners were extremely responsive and helpful. There were a few issues, but the owners immediately addressed them and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay. The house was great for our needs and our teenagers especially enjoyed the downstairs game room and hot tub.

Entertainment playground

The property is about a 5-7 minute drive to the Wintergreen resort. It was an excellent choice for multiple families who have kids. The downstairs area is full of entertaining games such as foosball, basketball, and darts. It also includes arcade games and multiple TVs. This area kept all the kids entertained whenever the adults were upstairs.

Great spot for larger groups

We stayed here two nights with family and kids (9 people total). The kids loved the game room and the jacuzzi was a nice add (even though it was freezing cold outside!) everyone had plenty of room to sleep and the place was very clean. We were worried about it being pet friendly but it wasn’t an issue. If I had to knit pick, it was a bit pricey for two nights, the fireplace wasn’t working after multiple attempts, and the toilet seats were super small/low which is harder for us bigger guys. Regardless, I’d stay here again if the seasonal rate was lower.

The Whitetail Lodge was perfect for our family. We gathered, cooked, laughed, played and hiked. And on our last night things got Tubular! The lodge was close to many trails and a few within walking distance. Walking our pups was easy. There were many walkers in the area and drivers used caution. We always felt safe.We were trying to get to Humpback Rocks via Blue Ridge Pkey but it was closed so we couldn’t make it. The West side of Blue Ridge Tunnel was a few more minutes up the road so we did that instead. A very cool engineering feat and historical treasure that has only been reopened since 2019. A must see!From my first inquiry, and through out our stay, the host was responsive and communication was clear and easy. The layout of the house made it comfortable to have many family members together during the holidays.
