Fun Place to Stay!

We had a wonderful time at Stephanie's place! The space was clean and beautifully furnished. Stephanie went above and beyond to add personalized touches and treats for us to enjoy! We loved playing the arcade games, ping pong and pool. We also tried out a few of the board games.The location was close to Shenandoah and several local restaurants. We had such a fun time. We will definitely be back!

Great amenities

This is the first time I’ve stayed at a private residence that the homeowner also lives in. I was hesitant but the reviews were good so I went ahead and booked it. Let me tell you I am shocked how beautifully decorated and furnished with tea, hot chocolate, small snacks, an art area, pool and ping pong, board games and an exercise area. I was blown away with the cleanliness and decor. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who needs a place to stay. Check in and out was simple. Communication was excellent. You can’t go wrong staying here.

Wonderful getaway

The only negative thing about this stay was that it was too short! We loved everything about this place. We enjoyed the billards, the arcade games and rock painting. The hosts were so amazing and helped us with anything we needed. We loved how we could drive to Shenandoah Park and the Caverns within just an hour or two. I highly recommend staying here!

WAY more fun than a hotel!

We have so many positive things to say about this stay, that I'm not sure where to begin. My parents and my 3 year old and I stayed here. She went out of her way preparing for our visit, and we all said we would go back again! I wish we had arrived on time instead of late, as I really wanted more time there! I also think it was perfectly priced at $202 with taxes and fees for 1 night and that is only a little bit more than what a hotel would have cost us, but we had WAY MORE FUN than what we would have had in a hotel. We walked up to the door at 9 pm and the little outdoor lights were on and the little hammock at the back and the rock garden from other visitors made it all just so inviting! There was so much charm in this place. My parents were impressed with the PDF book she sent us filled with details, and they loved the cushy soft floor in the bedroom and the furnishings of the bedroom/bathroom. It was so romantic or quaint looking. We pushed the twin day bed next to the couch and kinda made a double bed for my daughter and I to sleep on. We reached out in advance before booking to see if we could have 4 people when the listing says 3, and she replied within a very short time so we could proceed with arrangements.

Host had amazing attention to detail. I stayed overnight with a friend and my 5 month old. Anything we could need from corkscrews to extra blankets were available. I enjoyed sitting on the back porch where string lights has been hung. Host was very communicative and kind. We had a wonderful stay.
