We had a great stay at this property. The house was more than stocked with everything we could need. It was bitter cold outside the weekend we stayed, but the house was well heated. Owner communicated well and always had a quick response time with any question we had before our arrival.

Awesome place in a very quiet setting. Host was always very responsive to my messages leading up to our stay. Did not need to contact him after we arrived or through the rest of our stay because everything was awesome. Would definitely stay here again in the future since we have a student at JMU and it is only about a 30 min drive away.Funny thing my wife and child were a little scared driving up to the house sitting in the middle of a field wat off the main road since we did not check in until after dark. So I advise if you do stay here maybe check in during daylight hours. Everyone fell in love with it the next morning and was saying how beautiful it was in the daylight.

perfect snow tubing getaway

My family loved the farmhouse! The land it sits on is amazing, with river frontage and views from the house and yard of Blue Ridge, and Massanutten. The house is well preserved making it a private superb gem of the valley.

Clean and comfortable

We stayed here while visiting Shenandoah National Park. The beds were very comfortable and the kids liked the "closet" room. The kitchen had everything we needed, and being able to do laundry was very helpful after sweaty and dirty hikes. We loved looking out the window and seeing the cows!

This was our fifth time staying at this adorable farmhouse! Very cozy and clean and minutes away from Massanutten. Typically we drop the kids off to snowboard and we go explore the neighboring towns! Cute wineries, a lavender farm, and JMU near by!

Spring Break Vacation

The house and property was peacful and secluded. Our kids enjoyed playing in the yard. We loved the bunk beds being in a room attached to ours as our young kids still want to be close to us at bedtime. Would reccomend to anyone wanting a quiet, slow vacation.

4th stay here!

This was our 4th stay here - the kids always have a blast! We had planned to come in the summer but Hurricane Debbie derailed our plans. Forrest was extremely helpful and we were able to make it down in November when the kids had a break from school. As always, the location can’t be beat. We can’t wait to return!

Wonderful stay at the farmhouse. We had a great long weekend with grandparents. The house was clean and perfect for our purposes. The cows were fun for our girls to “talk” to each morning. The location couldn’t be better and the quiet serenity of the house was very welcome

We let the teens off at Massanutten and go on pet friendly adventures. This trip we visited Marceline Vineyards and enjoyed the friendly staff and live music. We love this little farmhouse, I’ve booked it again in February, which will be our fourth trip there.

What a wonderful escape in the beautiful countryside! We loved our stay at the charming Farmhouse. The house itself was well stocked, clean, and spacious. The beds were so comfy! Plenty of places for our family to sprawl out. The yard was big and it was fun to see the cows in the meadow and walk down to the river. The host was great and responded quickly. Located near hiking, ski resort, and Harrisonburg. Great property!!!!

Wonderful stay, close to Shenandoah

Property was even cuter than the photos. Great stay in a beautiful farm house. The location was incredibly charming and had a view of the blue ridge mountains. Cows were at a distance, but close enough to make the experience enjoyable. Very clean and well stocked, could have cooked family meals in the kitchen. Ideal for us that it was super close to the Shenandoah park entrance (15min drive)

My grown daughter and I and our dogs loved our visit here. The property is exactly as listed and spotless. We loved the cows as neighbors. The river is nearby as is the town of Elkton which is one of the friendliest spots you can find. I look forward to coming back.

Farmhouse Home Base

We stayed at this farmhouse in Elkton while spending a few days hiking in Shenandoah NP. The location is very very convenient. The atmosphere of the home is cozy and relaxing. It is clean and well stocked with kitchen essentials. Communication with the owner was prompt and clear. I highly recommend it!

Perfect & Private Valley Location

My wife and I spent 3 nights to explore the central Shenandoah Valley. This house has everything needed for a comfortable stay/ Close to several battlefields of T. J. Jackson's Valley Campaign. Bad weather on the second full day negated a planned visit to the South Fork of the Shenandoah River (on the property), but we will not miss it on our next trip. We really enjoyed our stay; just wish we could have stayed longer.

Perfect Family Getaway

We loved the cute farmhouse and it was super clean and perfect for our getaway. Our dog enjoyed the house and fields as well. We explored the caverns and hiked in Shenandoah. Very close to these attractions and also close to several restaurants and stores. Beware the angry neighbor who shares a driveway, he is not friendly and yelled at us for walking past him. Other than that,we had a great time!

Excellent Location

We really enjoyed our stay in this farmhouse. It was so peaceful sitting on the front porch every evening. The house’s location was great for accessing Shenandoah National Park. Our children enjoyed fishing and playing in the river. The house was clean and had everything we needed. It was comfortable for our family of 6 (2 adults and 4 children.) We used the small portable grill several times and sat outside on the picnic table to enjoy dinner. Such a beautiful view!

My daughters and their families live in the area. We have stayed at this property several times and love its location, cleanliness, facilities, and nearby activities. The grandkids and our dogs love to walk to the river and play. The view is fantastic and we love seeing the bright stars at night. We plan to visit again when in the area. Walking in the door upon arrival felt like arriving at home after a vacation. Forrest is very responsive and pleasant.
