Awesome place to stay!
We had such an awesome time staying here! The home was so warm and welcoming and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable! It was so clean and was decorated in such a unique way that we loved! Our host, Karen was also amazing! She was so friendly and helpful, checking in on us during our stay to be sure all was good 😊

JMU Family Weekend
A quick twenty minute escape from the hustle and bustle of JMU Family Weekend. The house was clean, easy to access, and very comfortable. The host even went out of her way to contact us before arrival to help us avoid flooding since we were driving through the remainder of a hurricane.

Very Nice House
Karen’s home was immaculate & welcoming - no complaints at all!! Great bucolic location near parks & farmland yet only about 20 minutes to Harrisonburg. We especially loved the mid-century American styling motif - retro-look but fully modern kitchen & some neat pieces in the living room. Would definitely book another stay!

Perfect For Weekend Getaway
Stayed here over the weekend with my wife, sister, and brother-in-law to go to Massanutten. Location was perfect! Very quiet area. Not far from Harrisonburg where we went out one night. We also enjoyed the sidewalk access where we were able to walk down to a local bar and 7-Eleven another night. Owner is very accommodating. Aside from having fresh towels for all of us, she also had some eggs and biscuits in the fridge for us to prepare for breakfast both mornings we stayed. Bedrooms, bathrooms, living room, and kitchen were all very clean. The whole house is cozy. We will definitely consider staying here again!

Great option for visiting family
House has plenty of welcoming touches, like plenty of towels and outlet covers, plus some toys for kids. The bed was comfortable, water pressure in the shower was great, and it was super easy to check in and out. For families with older kids, this is a fantastic option. For the toddler families, there are a few things that would not have survived the attention of my particular 1 year old. (Not a criticism of the house, at all, just info that I like to see in other reviews so I can decide if I am willing to properly supervise my kid in that location based on the trip we are planning.) I'd happily stay here again with my kid and my only regret is that it is no dogs allowed so we can't stay here when the dog does come with us!

Holiday Weekend Getaway
We enjoyed our Easter weekend at this adorable home. Our son, attending JMU, did not get a break for Easter so we brought the celebration to him. We felt right at home and were able to prepare our holiday meal in the stocked kitchen. The spices and extra kitchen items supplied are a big help. The spacious yard was perfect for our enjoyment. Karen was very responsive to all communications and very accommodating. She leaves thoughtful treats to welcome you. We are looking forward to our next visit.
