3 day Getaway in the Shenandoah Valley

Clean, comfortable, well equipped house was perfect for our visit to Harrisonburg. We enjoyed spending time on the back deck and our dog enjoyed playing in the yard. Fenced in yard was nice. Location is great, near many stores and restaurants. And only a short drive to hiking and mountain bike trails!

This was our second stay and the new owners made a few minor changes. It’s a cozy, comfortable and well stocked home for 4-6 people. Beds super comfy. Host is responsive. We didn’t have the chance to cook but kitchen is fully equipped.

Great place but be careful letting your dog loose in the backyard

We had a great time at the house - it's quirky but comfortable. There were several holes and a lot of poison ivy in the back yard, so just be careful letting a dog or kids roam around unsupervised.
