Welcome to Starstride Shenanigans — a vibrant, family-friendly mountain escape where neon butterflies glow at dusk, laughter fills the game room, steam rises from the hot tub, and starlit skies set the stage for unforgettable memories.
Nestled in the heart of the Shenandoah Mountains, this 5-bedroom, 3-bath retreat sleeps up to 14 guests and blends cozy comfort with playful nostalgia. Designed for families and friend groups alike, it’s the kind of home that feels like a story waiting to be lived.
Inside Your Mountain Getaway
Step into a living area made for togetherness: a neon-lit mural wall with twinkling stars, a plush sectional and chair around the electric fireplace, and a 65″ smart TV for movie nights that turn into memories.
The dining area seats 8 for shared meals, while the fully equipped kitchen has everything you need — a Keurig (pods & drip), waffle maker, Ninja 15-in-1 air fryer, blender, baking dishes, crockpot, and spice rack — plus children’s dinnerware, a highchair, and a pack ’n play for your little ones.
The Ultimate Game Room
In the game room (also Bedroom 1), fun takes center stage: • Full-over-full bunk bed for younger guests • Arcade games, pool table, Pac-Man, karaoke machine, and popcorn cart • 65″ smart TV • A kids’ play area with books, puzzles, blocks, and card games
It’s a joyful haven for kids and adults alike — a space built for play, laughter, and connection.
Three full bathrooms make mornings easy: one with a walk-in shower, and two with tub-and-shower combos — ideal for families and groups.
Outdoor Magic
The wrap-around deck is pure relaxation. The front deck features bar-style seating plus two cozy benches, overlooking the bocce ball court.
On the side deck, fun awaits with cornhole, life-size Connect 4, giant Jenga, a hot tub located on the rear deck under the pergola, and a comfy hammock hanging between the trees, along with a grill perfect for evening meals. When night falls, gather around the fire pit (seats six) with glowing lanterns for s’mores, stories, and stargazing.
Then head to the rooftop deck, home to your private stargazing dome and outdoor bar area. Sip, laugh, and gaze at the constellations glittering above the Shenandoah.
