Lovely Stay
We stayed for a couples retreat. Everything was exactly how it was advertised. The only thing that I had noticed was that the fireplace didn’t work. That was a bit disappointing. Otherwise, we greatly enjoyed ourselves!

Property was clean and perfect for 3 couples to spend a week exploring the area. We enjoyed the screened in porch for our morning coffee and the hot tub/fire pit for relaxing in the evening. Well equipped with enough supplies to start our stay. Would stay here again!

We are a family of 6 with 3 preteens and a 7 year old. The house was absolutely perfect! Clean, stocked with everything we needed. There was so much to do in the area that we didn’t have enough time to get to it all in 5 days. Highly recommend the resort and the house!

Bear Lodge was just as described and pictured. We were very comfortable there for a week. There was plenty of room for many our family of four; it would be a great spot for two families to enjoy. The house overall was well appointed for use. The scenery and wildlife around the property were awesome to enjoy. Driving distance to the National Park was very convenient.

Perfect for our Shenandoah get away!
We're two families with kids 6 and under. We used this lovely home for a getaway to do some hiking in the Shenandoah national park. Getting to our hikes took about an hour (it's the nature of getting to the skyline drive and to the trailhead you want), and then we returned to a beautiful home and relaxing hot tub! Resort amenities were available (indoor water park and more), but we did not partake as we had perfect hiking weather. We did a grocery pick up at the Food Lion in Elkton and the home had everything we needed to cook, grill, and serve our party of 8. Home was clean, comfy, and even had an electric fireplace that was heaven to sit next to at the end of the day. Highly recommend!

A great long weekend
We enjoyed our stay at Massanutten Bear Lodge. The property was clean and spacious. We encountered bees at the hot tub, and the property manager responded promptly to treat the area. There were several deer and baby dawn that “visited” us each night by the back porch.

Perfect family getaway
This was a perfect place for our two families to meetup for a long weekend. The house was perfect for our group of 7. The two master bedrooms with attached baths were comfortable for the adults and the kids loved the bunk room. There was plenty of seating for all and we enjoyed using both the hot tub and gas grill. Would definitely consider coming back again!

Rental - Bear Lodge
We enjoyed the house and it's amenities. The only negative was there was no TV that worked in the master bedroom. When I let them know the tv didn't work they offered to have someone come in to fix it, which we appreciated. The house was a great escape from the hustle of city living

Great location, comfortable accommodations
This house was very comfortable and very well laid out. The kitchen had basic necessities, the bathrooms and bedrooms were good sized, and we got to see deer every morning. The owners were very quick to reply to a couple small snags regarding our stay and were accommodating in that regard. I'd recommend staying here. My only caveat is that if you have noisy neighbors there's not much you can do since the windows are single pain glass, so they aren't especially noise suppressing. However, this was the only downside, and a minor one that only effected the 2 of us staying in the master bedroom, the other 8 in our party had no issues.

Jerome, we are so sorry for the issue that you had with the noise. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay otherwise. Thank you for your wonderful feedback and we would love to host you again!

We rented the house for my daughter’s JMU graduation weekend and it was perfect! Good location, 7.5 miles from campus, close to wineries and breweries.

Highly Impressed
The house was beautiful and spacious. Very clean and all the beds were super comfortable. Set in a neighborhood setting, so lacked the privacy and Mountain Views, but still very nice. The hot tub wasn’t working the first night, but the property management was great! They were on it immediately and remedied the issue. Great costumer service. Massanutten is a beautiful area and my family and I can’t wait to come back. Great Spring Break. Thank you!
