Get Away, Relax, and Unwind
This cozy home is located in the small town of Grottoes, Virginia nestled between the shade of an old Oak Tree, Maple Tree, and Pine Trees. It sits on approximately three acres with a large field behind the house where kids can run and play. In the Spring and Summer, you will have the opportunity to enjoy the rose garden in the back yard. My father passed away in March of 2017 and left behind the old home place. He spent many hours in his rose garden and enjoyed delivering them to his wife in the nursing home. Since his passing, I've completely renovated this beautiful old home on Dogwood Ave and have also began to learn the art of growing roses. My father loved to help others and loved people and I am carrying on the tradition of helping others by offering a location where folks can come away, relax and unwind. There are two lovely bedrooms; one of which has two antique brass beds. There is a special room in memory of my father who was an avid hunter and fisherman. In addition, there are games for all ages and many books and memorabilia to enjoy. The kitchen has a modern yet retro look to it. There is an old red Formica table that seats four. You can also sit and enjoy the big screen TV while seated at the bar in the kitchen. There is a coffee station completely furnished with coffee and teas to choose from.
This was our last leg of our family road trip. Only stayed for 2 nights. But the house felt just like home all the amenities that we were looking for to just relax after long drive. And the owner even left some amazing extras which made it easy for us since we didnât have to go to the store. We were able to enjoy caverns and a trail all within a 10 mins drive.
We had the pleasure of staying at this lovely rental home in Grottoes, Virginia for our daughterâs graduation from JMU, and it was absolutely perfect. The home is beautifully decorated with thoughtful touches throughout, and the furniture is so comfortableâit immediately felt like a peaceful retreat.Its location was ideal: close enough to Harrisonburg that we could easily get back and forth for graduation events, but far enough away that we completely avoided the traffic and chaos that comes with a big university celebration weekend. It was the best of both worlds.Everything in the home was spotless, and all the little amenities made our stay especially comfortable. One of my favorite moments was walking the property with my stepmother, admiring the lovely landscaping and the variety of plants around the yardâitâs clearly cared for with love and attention to detail.The surrounding area is so quiet and serene, and we hadnât realized how close it was to Grand Cavernsâwhat a hidden gem! Weâre already hoping to return and spend more time exploring all this area has to offer.Communication with the owner was outstandingâclear, prompt, and polite throughout the entire process. It made the entire experience even more enjoyable.Highly recommend!
The house was in great shape with everything updated and was very clean! It was a nice location to get to places and we enjoyed an evening of porch sitting! We had a great time!
We needed some extra space while visiting our family in Grottoes. Our was extremely enjoyable and exceeded our expectations in every way possible. In addition to a beautiful home, Karen went out of her way to ensure we were comfortable and well taken care of. Looking forward to returning in the near future.
Very well-kept and updated property in a quiet residential area a 30-minute drive from Natural Chimneys state park and Harrisonburg. It was an enjoyable 2-night stay with all the comforts of home.
We had such an awesome time staying here! The home was so warm and welcoming and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable! It was so clean and was decorated in such a unique way that we loved! Our host, Karen was also amazing! She was so friendly and helpful, checking in on us during our stay to be sure all was good đ
A quick twenty minute escape from the hustle and bustle of JMU Family Weekend. The house was clean, easy to access, and very comfortable. The host even went out of her way to contact us before arrival to help us avoid flooding since we were driving through the remainder of a hurricane.
Karen was extremely helpful and quick to respond to all my questions. Every possible accommodation is there for you!! House is immaculate and the yard is so inviting! Everything you can possibly need is in this very clean, nicely decorated sweet home!!! Highly recommend!
We had a great time staying at this property. It was perfect for our family of 5 on our visit to the Shenandoah national park. The house was homey with a vintage decor. Would definitely stay there again.
Karenâs home was immaculate & welcoming - no complaints at all!! Great bucolic location near parks & farmland yet only about 20 minutes to Harrisonburg. We especially loved the mid-century American styling motif - retro-look but fully modern kitchen & some neat pieces in the living room. Would definitely book another stay!
The house was well appointed and very clean. Comfortable and sweetly decorated. The location to campus was perfect. Our Host was a very kind and accommodating and made for a pleasantly stay!
Stayed here over the weekend with my wife, sister, and brother-in-law to go to Massanutten. Location was perfect! Very quiet area. Not far from Harrisonburg where we went out one night. We also enjoyed the sidewalk access where we were able to walk down to a local bar and 7-Eleven another night. Owner is very accommodating. Aside from having fresh towels for all of us, she also had some eggs and biscuits in the fridge for us to prepare for breakfast both mornings we stayed. Bedrooms, bathrooms, living room, and kitchen were all very clean. The whole house is cozy. We will definitely consider staying here again!
House has plenty of welcoming touches, like plenty of towels and outlet covers, plus some toys for kids. The bed was comfortable, water pressure in the shower was great, and it was super easy to check in and out.
For families with older kids, this is a fantastic option. For the toddler families, there are a few things that would not have survived the attention of my particular 1 year old. (Not a criticism of the house, at all, just info that I like to see in other reviews so I can decide if I am willing to properly supervise my kid in that location based on the trip we are planning.) I'd happily stay here again with my kid and my only regret is that it is no dogs allowed so we can't stay here when the dog does come with us!
Karen was a gracious host and was very helpful and receptive. Her home was clean and had everything that we needed. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you!
