Photos and Description of the Massanutten vacation house rental
House, 3 Bedrooms, 2 Baths, (Sleeps 7)

Fantastic house for a family or two to enjoy the area. Spring is here! Hiking, biking, golfing are all in full swing, Come and enjoying nature's beauty. We are walking distance to a great park for kids and a sweet little fishing pond.

Great rental house for skiing, snowboarding, and tubing in the winter. Summertime offers chairlift rides, zip line tours, frisbee golf, fantastic hiking, world-class mountain biking, golf, motorcycle touring, children's programs, canoeing and tubing trips on the Shenandoah River, and more. The cottage is located at Massanutten Resort near Harrisonburg, Virginia. It has both easy access to the ski area and to the water park. We have wireless internet access and a computer for guest use. We have a notebook with our favorite local things to do including restaurants, outdoor activities, and shopping.

Check out our Facebook page (link below) for more pictures and updates. Add your own comments for local things to do!

Massanutten Cottage has three bedrooms and two full baths. Upstairs, there is a queen-size bed in one bedroom with a small futon couch (suitable for one small child). In the other upstairs bedroom is a full-size bed with a full-sized futon. The downstairs bedroom has a king that is easily converted into two twin beds if that better suits you. Linens and towels are provided as a courtesy to our guests. Our policy is that guests launder all used linens before check out. Guests that do not have time to launder, or wish not to, often bring their own linens.

The cottage has a full kitchen and all the pans and utensils that you may require. A large combined dining and living area makes for a comfortable area for all to relax. The house is equipped with 3 cable televisions (living room, upstairs queen room, downstairs bedroom) and a DVD player (living room). The house is immaculate and very comfortable.

Our guests have truly enjoyed the use of our private HOT TUB!!!! A 4 person hot tub graces our back porch overlooking the woods. It is great for unwinding after a cold winter day or a day of hiking or biking. Please note that there are quiet hours posted for the hot tub, as we have full time neighbors.

We have had great feedback from our previous guests and enjoy opening our comfortable vacation home to others when we are not using it. We are able to be a little bit more choosy about our renters because of our reputation. We prefer renters that enjoy and respect the quiet neighborhood in which our house is located. We do not condone the use of our house for parties and raucous gatherings. We also prefer that our guests have no more than three cars in the driveway. We hope that you will enjoy the cottage as much as our family and repeat guests do.

Call for great last minute deals.

About Amanda Brookman

We are the Brookmans. We have two children; a daughter who works at a preschool and a son who attends! All of us love our time at Massanutten, and we get there as often as possible. Our permanant home is across the mountain in Orange County, Virginia. We purchased our home in 2002 when we discovered what a jewel Massanutten Resort was. We had often skied there as a good local mountain, but when we discovered the mountain biking right on the property, we were sold on the place! In fact, we were riding in Colorado, and met a man who said his favorite place to ride was a little resort called Massanutten! We were floored, but we completely agreed. We bought the house with the intent to use it ourselves as much as possible. The decision to rent was and effort to offset some of the costs of the home. We haven't made a dime in actual profit on the house yet, but we are happy to continue to own it, rent it, and share it with our family and friends. We are constantly upgrading and updating as financing allows. Repeat renters often find many changes in between stays. Some of our bigger projects have been bringing in a hot tub, replacing appliances, painting the exterior, adding 2 TVs, tiling and painting the upstairs bathroom, replacing the roof and the decks, and our latest project, putting in new bamboo floors in the downstairs! Projects on the horizon are a second round of painting and updating the downstairs bathroom.

Amanda Brookman purchased this house in 2002
Why Amanda Brookman chose Massanutten

Our house is located just inside the gates of the resort. We love the location of the house because it is quick and easy to get in and out. We are about a mile from the water park and 3 miles to the ski area. The neighborhood is quiet with little traffic, and we are walking distance to some short trails, a fishing pond, and the playground.

What makes this house unique

We try to make the house very comfortable for our guests. Our beds have quality bedding, our kitchen has needed supplies, and our home is spotless. We also love sharing all the area has to offer as well. We give lots of advice to our guests about local activities. At the house we have a computer that has internet access and we also have wireless access for your own computer. Our computer has links to activities in the area including sightseeing, shopping, dining, and outdoor activities. We also have a book with brochures about some of our favorite spots that include descriptions and directions. We do our best to accommodate folks. Because most families like access to pools in the summer, we have purchased a guest pool pass that is good for admittance to the property owners' pool with a $5 per person fee ( free for children under 5).

Virginia bicycling paradise

We have been in Massanutten for one week. We were a small group of cyclist from Canada. Massanutten is very well known for the road that are in its region as well as the access to the blue Ridge and Skyline drive. At our arrival, the house was very clean, it is well located for cyclist at the entrance of the resort, so we did not have to make the climb each day. It has two floors and therefore it is very quiet. It is an ideal location for a small group like ours.

Great Weekend

5 of 5
Submitted: March 18, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
We spent the weekend at this Cozy Cottage and had a great time. The Cottage looked just like the pictures and the description . It was very clean when we arrived and had everything you could want available to us. The owner could not have been any nicer and very easy to work with. She left some information for us to help us enjoy our trip. The location was perfect for us, very close to the Waterpark and the tubing which is what we planned on doing when we got there. I took my daughter's family which included a 4yr. old and a 6yr. old. The fact that we had a little yard to play in and a playground close by was great for the in between times. We are already talking about coming back again. Loved it and would recommend it to all. Thanks Amanda.

Great Stay!!

We just returned from a great time at the cottage! The home is well located to enjoy everything that Massanutten has to offer. The house is very comfortable and cozy. Plenty of supplies (trashbags, hand soap, laundry detergent, paper towels, coffee filters) were provided with the house along with sheets, towels and blankets (it's so nice not having to bring your own supplies). Having the hot tub available after skiing was perfect! Amanda was great during booking and before our arrival answering our questions. She was also super speedy in contacting me to let me know everything checked out okay and that she would be sending our deposit back! One of the best priced places in Massanutten :) We would definitely love to return again soon!
