We loved our two night getaway in this cozy log cabin on the mountain side. It was well-maintained with lots of extra personal touches that made us feel right at home. One of the highlights was watching the sun come up over the mountain in the mornings from a perfect view on the porch that included colorful fall leaves and four deer browsing in the yard.

Perfect Getaway!

We had a wonderful stay! The house was exactly what we needed — comfortable, clean, and in a great location. We loved relaxing on the porches and watching the deer in the mornings and evenings. It was close to golf and all the activities we wanted to do. Communication with the host was easy and smooth. We would absolutely stay here again!

Quick getaway to the mountains

We live in Virginia Beach and have made visiting Massanutten resort an annual to biannual trip. My husband and kids love to snowboard and staying at Mostly porch made the experience even more enjoyable. The property was everything you would expect of a mountain escape. The scenery was beautiful, the decor was just right, and it smelled of wood and cleanliness when you walked in. My family and I hope to stay here every time we visit Massanutten for years to come. Thank you for a wonderful winter escape.

Awesome log cabin

Long weekend visit by 2 families with young boys. Loved this beautiful, spacious, and clean log-cabin-style house in a quiet, scenic, and super convenient spot. Had a lot of fun using the pool table. Under 3-minute drive to skiiing and under 10-minute drive to water park. Watch out, the driveway is steep like others in the neighborhood - scraped our car going up the first time. Sticklers in my group pointed out some dust up high on tops of beams, but I had to squint to see it. Beds for 6 people. Beyond that it's futons or pull out sofa.

Beatiful Neighborhood - - Cabin Needs Work

Absolutely beautiful neighborhood and very quiet! A little hiccup when we first arrived. All the bath towels and wash cloths were folded nicely and left at the end of the beds, but they were all damp. Some were wet enough, the comforter was also wet. We did not know this of course until 9:30 that evening, so we had to throw all of them in the dryer before we could take showers. An upstairs bedroom did not have blinds or curtains, but we found the blind in a closet. We temporarily got it up that night, but notified the owner a handy man would need to come after our trip to fix it. The owner was quick to respond and offered to send someone, but at that point we wanted to go to bed. Overall, the cabin was okay. The bathrooms were clean but there was no counter space unless you were in the primary bath. The remainder of the house could have used some extra cleaning. Furniture was a little outdated and no noise cancellation whatsoever. No doubt about it when someone was up and round at night or in the morning, you heard them. When we were leaving and took the sheets off the primary bed, we realized the box spring had collapsed on one side of the bed, so not very comfy. Again, the owner was very nice and super responsive, but the cabin needs some work. For the price we paid, we were very disappointed.

I have been renting through VRBO for the past 30 years, mutiple times per year, so I have experienced many rentals."Mostly Porch" was in an excellent location for visiting Shenandoah National Park - which was beautiful, and for doing other things in the area. We went to Luray Caverns, Brix & Columns Vineyards, Monticello and we took a lift ride to the top of the mountain within the resort. We also did a very nice hike right within the resort. The house was lovely in design but provided absolutely no extras. There was one towel and one washcloth on each bed. No linen closet with a few extras so you did not have to run the washing machine so much. One comforter per bed, no extra blankets, no spices, etc. Most of the homes we have rented provide their guests with a few extra towels, blankets and other conveniences and those things make you feel more welcome. The other issue we had with the rental was that there were cameras that made us feel like we were being watched and the owner sent me an email indicating that her "neighbors keep an eye on the house and report to her if there are any parties". We are responsible retirees and the tone used felt very unfriendly. On the plus side, there were lots of games, toys and books available, as well as a pool table, so if you are traveling with children there are lots of things available for them to play with on a rainy day. The sectional and the gas fireplace in the great room made for a very cozy evening after a day of hiking.
