About this property

Mountain Retreat w/ Resort Amenities! Now Pet Friendly! The Otter Den at Massanutten

Welcome to The Otter Den at Massanutten!
In search of a peaceful getaway in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley? Look no further than The Otter Den at Massanutten Resort! This four-bedroom, two-bathroom home sleeps a total of 10 people and includes one king bed, two queen beds, and one twin over full bunk bed.

This cozy mountain home will be the perfect backdrop for unforgettable memories with friends and family. Cook a hearty breakfast in the fully-equipped country-style kitchen, take part in a bit of competitive fun with pool, cards, and board games in the game room, or enjoy a quiet cup of coffee while observing the local wildlife from the comfort of the screened porch. The vaulted ceilings and large windows of the main level provide tons of natural light and views of the wooded area surrounding the home.

The Otter Den will feel like a secluded mountain getaway, but is located on-site at Massanutten Resort which features exciting attractions like the Indoor/Outdoor WaterPark, Family Adventure Park, two golf courses, hiking trails, and more. The Otter Den also includes free access to resort pools and recreation centers. Once you are finished enjoying all that the resort has to offer, we suggest a trip to nearby local communities for some of the Shenandoah Valley's best outdoor recreation, dining, and entertainment options.

Great place for 2 families with children
My family of 5 and my sister’s family of 5 greatly enjoyed this cute home at Massanutten for a short week. We knew there wouldn’t be much snow so wanted a good home base in case we couldn’t do all the things we usually do when coming to the mountain each year. We had 6 kids ages 3-9 and the place worked out great! The downstairs rec room was great, it was so nice to not have to pack any toys with us, and the adults could enjoy playing pool in the evenings. The kids and adults played so much chess, it was great. My youngest took a nap on the hammock outside one afternoon and all the kids took turns playing on the swing out towards the back. It was nice to have the dog friendly house as well so we could take our pup with us and enjoy some hiking while we were there. Overall the perfect place for 2 families! Plenty of space to sleep, play, and a great kitchen with all the things! We will definitely be back!
