About this property

Whitetail Summit - Shenandoah/hot tub/wineries

**New property for October 2022** Be one of the first to stay at Whitetail Summit, a spacious chalet with stunning mountain views, river access, and hiking on property. You'll have close proximity to 30+ wineries/breweries, the Shenandoah National Park, the Appalachian Trail, the Shenandoah River, horseback riding, and hunting preserves. Or relax at home, with an indoor pool/ping pong table and music nook, as well as an outdoor hot tub and fire pit. Whitetail Summit is family and pet-friendly, and has two dedicated work-from-home spaces, and a gym/Peloton.

The space
SLEEPING: Master Bedroom (King), Bedroom 2 (Queen), Bedroom 3 (Queen), Basement (King), Basement Pull-Out (Queen)

INDOOR LIVING: Stone wood-burning fireplace, 3 flat-screen TVs, board games, books, pool table and ping pong table, music nook with guitars/violin/piano

KITCHEN: Fully equipped, dishwasher, oven, microwave, toaster, Keurig latte maker, French press, Crock-Pot

GENERAL: Fast WiFi, excellent cell phone reception, central AC/heating, ceiling fans, washer/dryer, toiletries, linens, towels

PET AMENITIES: Fenced-in yard that connects to the deck, dishes, bed, and crate. Whitetail Summit welcomes up to two dogs with an additional $50 fee per dog.

PARKING: Driveway parking for up to 6 cars. Whitetail Summit is up a steep driveway off a 1.5 mile gravel road. 4-wheel drive is required in the winter, and SUVs are recommended.

DEER: Many Whitetail deer reside in the area, and you are almost certain to see some during your stay. We are transitioning our lawn to a natural deer habitat, so you are likely to get an up-close view. Please drive with caution and do not disturb them. While there are nearby preserves for hunting, hunting is not permitted at Whitetail Summit.

Whitetail Summit is paradise for you, your kids, and your pups! Enjoy stunning mountain views less than 5 minutes from the Shenandoah River; hiking directly adjacent to the property; and 12 minutes from several of Virginia's best wineries. You'll also be 15 minutes from horseback riding, and around the corner from the Ashby Inn, one of Virginia's most storied restaurants. Whitetail Summit is perfectly located West of Middleburg (20 mi), North of Front Royal (14 mi), and Southeast of Winchester (20 mi), in the Shenandoah Farms subdivision.

Note: If you're coming for a vineyard tour, we can extend our membership to Delaplane Cellars and offer you four free tastings to get your day started.

You'll have to make the climb to enjoy the view. Our property is located one mile down a well-maintained gravel road, and up a moderately steep hill. We recommend AWD drive during inclement weather and the winter months.

Overall a nice stay

The house is lovely and very clean in the inside. Me and a group of friends did a couples retreat and it was perfect for that. The only issue was the outside of the property was not prepared, so we could not enjoy the outside of the property. The outside furniture needed some cleaning and the Jacuzzi was not cleaned, it had green stuff in the water. Your surrounded by lots of nice winerys which was a plus. But overall the house was nice, beds were comfortable and they keep it clean.

Perfect setting for a long weekend away!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this property! The home and the property itself were stunning—perfect for a relaxing getaway with my wife and our pup. It was also decorated for the holidays! Everything was thoughtfully designed for ease of use, with clear labels and a well-organized house manual that made settling in effortless. The fenced-in yard was perfect for our dog to safely enjoy, and the quiet neighborhood added to the peaceful ambiance. The home was spotless and incredibly comfortable; from the cozy couch to the plush bedding, every detail was spot-on. We truly felt at home and look forward to returning for another relaxing escape. Highly recommend this gem!

Perfect Fall Getaway

My friends and I chose this location as a mid-point between leaf-peeping in the Shenandoah National Park and visiting wineries, breweries and the quaint towns of western Loudoun County. The accommodations were clean, spacious and comfortable. We loved lounging on the living room recliners! The house was in a beautiful location with amenities, such as a fully equipped kitchen, toiletries, labeled cabinets and drawers. Jenny was quick to respond to my questions and was the perfect host. We would definitely consider returning to this rental property for a future girls getaway!

Best retreat to the Shenandoah Mountains

Family and I fully enjoyed our stay at Whitetail Summit over the July 4th holiday. The chalet has a earthy beauty, designed to blend in with and expose the natural splendor that surrounds it. A quiet, peaceful backdrop to a lovely home equipped with everything for family entertainment. Explorations outside were equally fun with pretty trail hikes and a tasty winery visit. We hope to come back.

A Wonderful Getaway Haven

Booked a one week stay around my birthday and had the most wonderful time at this house! Everything was exactly as advertised, and the views were magnificent from just about every window. Spent lots of time stargazing from the porch and hot tub and walking my dog around this lovely neighborhood. These incredible hosts have thought of everything you could possibly need, so much so that we cancelled many of our plans just to enjoy this property. Cannot wait to come back soon!!

My friends and I had an amazing time at the house over New Years. They have a beautiful modern/renovated home nestled in the woods with a great view. We had fun in the game room basement and out by the fire. Would definitely book a stay here again!

We rented the property for 2 nights for our daughters graduation from Shenandoah University. The location is definitely private and the house is beautiful. We had an issue with the cable and the owners were extremely helpful and walked us through some troubleshooting. We had a great stay.

Mountain Getaway

We had a great stay at Whitetail Summit. A beautiful property just as described, maybe better than described. Close to Front Royal and just 20-30 minutes from Skyline Drive where we saw the beautiful autumn leaves. The house was very spacious and comfortable and the bedrooms were all very luxurious with nice linens. We had two small dogs and it was great that there was a small fenced in area to let out the dogs. Our dog loved the big dog bed in the lower level where we slept. Bonus was a huge tv downstairs with a great sofa and a nice bedroom with a king bed. We played ping pong and got to really relax! Extra thanks for the bottle of wine in the fridge from a local winery! There is a steep driveway to the house so just be aware of that, we managed fine in our SUV. The host Jenny was very responsive to our few questions and all in all, I highly recommend this house for a getaway. On the way back to DC, we took Route 50 and went through Middleburg so it was nice to stay off the highway and meander back to town!

4 day getaway with friends

Whitetail Sumitt is a great place to relax and enjoy time with friends and family. The fenced in area was a plus for our small dog. The house was very clean and well appointed with kitchen essentials. We enjoyed visiting the nearby wineries and seeing the fall foliage. We highly recommend staying at Whitetail Sumitt you won't be disappointed.

About the host

Hosted by Jenny

Host profile image
Hello, I'm Jenny! My husband Craig and I have lived in the Washington, DC area for 14 years and we try to enjoy all it has to offer. When we're not working full-time downtown, we frequent live music venues, explore new restaurants, and walk around the city with our dog Charlie. We found ourselves frequenting the Shenandoah Valley so often that we got a mountain chalet in 2022 for better access to the natural beauty of the area. We are experienced DC hosts but are looking forward to hosting you in the mountains.
