Julian was a fantastic host. The home was spotless and featured high quality beds, linens, towels, etc. Extremely comfortable, tucked away on a quiet street. We loved the games. Great place to relax after a great day of skiing!
Our family had the best stay! We enjoyed your home and all its amenities as much as we enjoyed the ski slopes and nearby hiking at Shenandoah. We even had a dusting of snow! We hope to come back again very soon!
We had an amazing stay at Sam’s place. Everything was as described in the listing, clean, and comfortable. Loved the convenience to the slopes and the kids had a blast in the game room. And the house is dog friendly! Would definitely recommend.
We had a wonderful stay at Sam's Place. The house was beautiful and clean. Enjoyed all the games in the basement. Liked that the driveway was flat unlike a lot of houses in Massanutten with steep driveways. I would recommend Sam's Place to anyone visiting Massanutten.
This house was awesome for my annual getaway with my daughters and grandkids! Close enough to waterpark and other activities. The added bonus was the game room in the lower level! I would highly recommend this beautiful home!
Sam's Place did not disappoint! The house was immaculate and cozy. We had an awesome time enjoying the fall foliage from the spacious deck and the basement game room proved to hours of fun.
This was our second time at this property and we loved it just as much as the first. Awesome communication with Julian, extremely clean, easy to find, and just an overall great experience. Thanks. We will definitely come back again.
My family and I stayed at this property to go skiing at Massanutten. The house is conveniently located about 2 miles from the slopes so we were able to go back and forth easily for lunch. The house is new and very well decorated, and of course clean. It had a well equipped kitchen for us to cook all of our meals. We had plenty of activities to enjoy after skiing with the game room in the basement and board games provided. My son enjoyed time playing the video games in the bedroom as well. Our entire experience was positive and we will consider booking another trip in the future.
Property was beautiful. Obviously new. Very nice deck looking over the woods. Basement area was great gor the kids. Looks like eventually there may be a third bathroom there. Kids loved their own space! Able to load and unload car easily without climbing stairs.
Julian was an excellent host! The property was ultra-clean, modern, and spacious. Loved the large comfy sofa and cozy fireplace, which provided a great ambiance! Also loved the open floor plan and high ceilings. The beds were comfortable and we slept well. The parking was convenient and the location offered different activities. We also enjoyed the activities in the downstairs game room. The property is dog-friendly and our 3-year-old pup enjoyed the spacious deck.This property is an enjoyable vacation spot and we would easily consider booking with Julian again if we return to the area.
The main living room/dining/kitchen was up-to-date with a giant couch that fit our family and lots of amenities for our dog Anya--dog bowls, place for leash by door, even poop bags! My husband and I and our almost thirty year old daughter were very comfortable. In the evenings we hosted two of our sons and their families with 4 children (1-8yrs old) who were staying in separate condos. and Everyone loved the game room downstairs and the games in the kid's room. The back porch is like being in a tree house. The home had everything to make our stay enjoyable. Would definitely stay there again.
Sam’s place didn’t disappoint! From the spacious layout, the immaculate condition of the home, to the amazing game room…. this home was top tier! The host anticipates every guest need, and thoughtfully stocks the entire cabin to make packing a breeze! Julian is so friendly and responsive! You really can’t ask for more! We have been guests at it’s adjacent property, Duke’s place as well…. anything from this host is absolute perfection. We look forward to visiting again this Winter!
The owner was completely irresponsible and unaccountable related to the booking of this property. He books using multiple sites and doesn’t check if the property is double booked which is entirely his responsibility. We booked this property over 1 year ago for our daughter’s university graduation. When we arrived to the property after a very long journey we were shocked to find other occupants already inside. The owner was a complete deer in the headlights and offered no support other than to say it was VRBOs fault. He didn’t even have the compassion or courtesy to follow up with us to see if our family was ok at any point in time after he was literally speechless about HIS error!! Don’t risk a huge letdown with this owner and this property! He does not own up to his mistakes and has zero empathy to his customers!
We loved the space & the beautifully decorated house. The arcade in the kids room was a great bonus as well as the games in the basement. The blankets and bedding were very warm and high quality. The kitchen was high end and well stocked. We had a wonderful stay during fall break with our children.
