Serene seclusion

The drive to get there from 81 is a VERY curvy mountain road. But if you're looking to get away from people and the noise of suburbia then this is heaven on earth!The setup is perfect for families! The house is close to the road but since maybe 5 cars go down it on a busy day you don't even notice.Our favorite thing to do is sit by creek and read a book.There's plenty of seating indoors and out. The kitchen is very well appointed including farm fresh eggs YUM! There's also plenty of blankets and pillows so no need to worry about bringing your own.

Amazing Mountain Stay

We loved it!! Clean, welcoming and pet friendly! We spent our evenings in the hot tub gazing at the beautiful mountain and stream behind the property. All modern amenities. Roku, sauna and wi-fi. Nice big kitchen. So many great places to enjoy the scenery. The sounding knob fire tower, Greenbank Observatory and downtown Monterey are close by. Thanks again

Back creek valley

A well maintained beautifully situated house with just the right amout of landscaping without being too busy or crowded. The mountain views, valley drive in, and proximity to GW National Forest & town were perfect for us. There was plenty for us to do at the house as well as amenities offered inand around town. Host was responsive to our requests.

Fall Get Away

We wanted a quiet getaway in the Shenandoah valley. We found it with this lovely home. My favorite spot was sitting on the covered back deck, listening to the brook. The pool table was an added bonus. The kitchen had everything we needed. The views as we biked down the road to the sugar house was the best. Ellis and Manette are the perfect host. If we ever head back, we would absolutely rent this home again.

When it got dark and the stars came out over the mountain opposite the back porch, the face of the mountain started to twinkle with dozens of fireflies. It was truly magical!

Beautiful Christmas time

We had an amazing stay at Blue Grass. The house is very comfortable and the back creek and location are the highlights. When we got to the house there were goodies and fresh eggs that the owners left for us, such a nice gesture... We definitely recommend.

Great spot to get away. Need to know to get groceries and things as you come in. The closest store was about 20-30min away. Hot water was great, but only seems to work at one spot at a time. Hot tub and sauna were an excellent amenity.
