About this property
An elegantly appointed house tucked in the Virginia Mountainside.
Welcome to Mountainside House!
Experience a hidden gem amidst the Virginia Mountains. Where we strive to showcase Virginia excellence with hand crafted locally made furniture and art.
Our elegantly appointed suites are both spacious and cozy. Each suite comes with its own workstation, smart TV and sitting area.
Heated slate floors make the first floor even more cozy for those cold evenings or cozy up in the living room by the fireplace.
There are two bathrooms available. The first one is a Spa Shower. Rinse off the day's stress under a 3ft. by 3 ft. rainfall shower head with 6 wall jets. The second bathroom boasts a 6-foot copper soaking tub with a telephone hand shower and a panoramic view of the mountainside while you melt the stress away. Both bathrooms are equipped with smart toilets with a bidet, organic amenities, hair dryers and luscious thick pile towels and robes.
For the chef at heart, a professional kitchen is yours to use to create a wonderful meal. Fresh baked bread for breakfast? There's a stand mixer in the kitchen. Looking to spice up that steak? There's a selection of dried spices in the spice cabinet. Fancy a mint julep? There are fresh herbs outside the kitchen door.
Enjoy all of these within driving distance to Virginia wine country, exceptional dining and a bevy of outdoor activities.
We look forward to spoiling you!

About the host
Hosted by Arthur Tanwangco
Hello Friends!
Welcome to our home!
We hope we're able to pamper you while at Mountainside. Michael and I are honored that you're here!
Entertaining is our love language as we both came from the hospitality industry. Up until recently, we were both working at some of the DC areas most popular restaurants. Michael, who grew up in Montgomery County MD, was the Director of Operations of Knightsbridge Restaurant Group (Rasika, The Bombay Club, Bindaas, Etc.) and Arthur, born and raised in the Philippines was hosting Private Events and is an alumnus of the fabled The Inn at Little Washington.
We have since then started our dog daycare, boarding and training business, Five Pups where we poured our love for hospitality to our four legged babies. It is a passion project for Arthur.
Pivoting to Mountainside, we wanted this experience for our guests to be part of a memory. Every details has been painstakingly selected to evoke an emotion. From the sound of a knock on a solid wood door, to the beauty of the birch floors harvested from the Appalachian Trail.
Our wish is for Mountainside is to be a part of a happy memory for our guests.
Why they chose this property
Having both worked in hectic restaurants. We wanted a place where we could disconnect. Mountainside provided us a sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of our daily routines. We would hope that our guests would feel the same way.
What makes this property unique
It's something you'll have to see to believe. :-P
