Great Stay

Our stay at the Branch House was great. The kitchen was fully stocked with anything we may need, including yummy treats for Smores. The house was clean with a spacious upstairs and living room. Wifi worked great as well and the hosts were very responsive with our questions. Definitely recommend!

Lots of family time and great trail riding

We had a great time on the trails, hanging around the backyard and the fire pit. Rich was a supportive and attentive host and was a pleasure to communicate with. The property was just as advertised and in the perfect location!

Great spot!

We loved this place. We came with friends (and our dogs) for Thanksgiving weekend, and found a warm, spacious house with a fully stocked kitchen for cooking our Thanksgiving dinner, and a beautiful fireplace in the living room. Our dogs loved the massive lawn and all the hiking nearby, including the short trail leading directly from the back garden, which was perfect for early morning walks.

Perfect for mountain bike trip

Found this house for a small group planning to mountain bike the Reddish Knob, Stokesville, and Western Slope areas. PERFECT location for the first two with many trails ridable or easily shuttle-able from the house, and easy drive into Harrisonburg when needed. Rich was great for communication. House was clean, comfortable, well-stocked and set up for hanging out by the fire pit and storing bikes in the shed. I'd go back again several times per year if I could get off work that much!

Perfection

My mom, husband, 2 dogs, and myself recently stayed at this VRBO in Dayton, VA for a 100k trail race, and it was great. The house had everything we needed and more for our outdoor adventures. We were impressed by the attention to detail and the thoughtfulness of the property owners. The kitchen was stocked with all the essentials, making it easy for us to prepare hearty meals before and after the race. We appreciated the convenience and saved some money on dining out. The location was ideal, nestled in the heart of nature, providing easy access to beautiful trails and serving as the perfect home base for the race. We highly recommend this VRBO to fellow nature enthusiasts, trail runners, and bikers. We look forward to staying here again!

Awesome host; Excellent extras

Rich was communicative with an awesome welcome packet. Described how to enter, adjust heat and air, run water etc....everything we needed to know. We were mot appreciative of the extras. There were paper towels, sandwich baggies, tinfoil and dishwasher soap. These are the little things that can make a stay in someone's home so much better. He also left us a smore's kit-really awesome. Too rainy to use but a wonderful gesture. Thanks for sharing your great space with us. Can we book next year too, please?
