About this property

Serenity in Massanutten with Hot Tub and Firepit

New listing! Welcome to Serenity, a fully remodeled home in the heart of Massanutten Resort. Relax in the hot tub, or enjoy a meal at the outdoor table or sip wine around the firepit. Inside you'll love the open floor plan with modern decor. Downstairs is a second living room / bunk room and the garage has been converted to a game room with lots to do. Plus, pet friendly! Managed by Chris at New School Hosting.

The home layout is as follows:

Upper level:

BR1: Primary bedroom suite with king bed, sitting area, and ensuite bathroom with dual vanities, shower, and soaking tub

Main level:

- Great room with large TV and propane fireplace, open to dining area

- BR2: King bedroom

- Small deck with grill
- Game room in converted garage with air hockey, shuffleboard, foosball, arcade game, and couch/TV area. Note this room does NOT have A/C, and the only heat is from the electric fireplace under the TV which provides some heat, but not enough to keep the room comfortable during most winter days

Lower level:
- BR4: bunk room / additional living room with 2 sets of twin-over-twin bunks, plus a twin trundle. Sitting area with TV
- Half bath
- Access to hot tub area, plus a conversation set with seating for 4

Lastly, this property is located within an HOA that requires the community rules to be posted here, so here are those rules:

WELCOME TO MASSANUTTEN!

This home is in a private residential neighborhood and is part of the Massanutten Property Owners Association (MPOA), governed by its rules and regulations. There are rental homes in all MPOA neighborhoods, but people also live here. Your nearby neighbors may be full-time residents, including families with children, retirees, second-home owners and other guests
enjoying their retreat.

NOISE
• Quiet hours: 10:00 PM - 7:00 AM.
• Keep noise indoors during these hours.
• No excessive noise at any time, as judged by MPOA or its assigned agents.

PARKING
• Keep all tires off the road.
• Don't block fire hydrants or park in front of another property without written approval
from your host.
• Park only in designated areas or overflow lot (4007 Peak Dr., Massanutten, VA 22840)
• No buses, campers, or RVs to be parked at homes or on roads. Overflow lot is
available with written approval from your host.

OUTDOOR FIRES

• No open fires.
• No unattended fires.
• No firepit use during quiet hours (10:00 PM - 7:00 AM).

No open containers on roads or in common areas.

PETS
• Leash always required when outside.
• Clean up after your pets.

TRASH
• Do not place garbage/trash outside, including screened-in porches, decks or
carports. Trash attracts wildlife, which could endanger you and damage the property.
• Dumpsters are located at 4003 Peak Dr., Massanutten, VA 22840

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE
- Please note that if you would like to send packages to the property, you do so at your own risk. USPS is particularly unreliable. We can not be held responsible for late or undelivered packages. Additionally, we charge $25 for any return services requested, in additional to actual postage.

Tips for a Happy Hot Tub
- Be sure to unclip the hot tub cover before removing it.
- Please do not put anything besides people in the hot tub (like mulch or toys).
- If the water level doesn’t cover the jets, you can use the hose to add water. Please disconnect the hose when done, especially in cold weather when it could freeze.
- Always put the cover on the hot tub when not in use - this keeps the hot tub warm & filled with water. Using the plastic clips helps keep it from blowing off.
- For safety reasons, please don’t add chemicals to the hot tub yourself. If the water looks murky or has a smell, let us know, and we'll have our hot tub expert come by to treat it.
- Do not drain the hot tub.
- There's no need to turn off the hot tub. It may run the jets on low periodically to circulate water through the filter—that’s totally normal.
- Use plastic drinkware around the hot tub.

Serenity is True to Its Name!

For our family trip we wanted a relaxing environment in a beautiful well-equipped home. We found it, and more, with Serenity! Our family included two grandchildren, ages 5 and 8, our two daughters, my husband and myself. From the instant we stepped into the rental home we were pleased beyond measure. The home is very well equipped and maintained, beautifully decorated and included games and books for the younger ones with us. The amenities included were more than we expected. If you like the outdoors there is plenty to do and see. The neighborhood is very quiet and friendly. And the hosts were very responsive with every communication. They were just GREAT!We loved it so much that we would not hesitate to rent this same property again!

Massanutten

Nice residential property with beautiful Mountain View.The kitchen is well equipped and roomy. We really enjoyed that there are multiple areas to have group conversations. The most popular space was the screened porch with fire pit, closely followed by the hot tub. Easily accommodated 6 adults. Would love to stay again in the future.
