About this property

4 Bedroom Luxury: FREE SUMMER POOL PASS-PoolTable-Outdoor Fireplace-Views-PS5

Enter this luxury home from the lower level deck into the spacious rec room with full-size pool table, a couch area with large screen, smart TV, Play-station-5, and a wet bar. This room was built for fun, and you'll find a closet stacked with board games for hours of entertainment.

On one side of the rec room is a large bunk room kids will love, featuring two sets of bunkbeds (4 beds total, 2 fulls and 2 twins). On the other side of the rec room is another large bedroom with 2 queen beds. A full bathroom off the rec room is shared by both bedrooms. A reading 'cave' for kids is tucked under the stairwell.

Head upstairs to the main room in the lodge, featuring a floor to ceiling stone fireplace (gas), 24' vaulted, gorgeous tongue and groove ceilings and beams, tons of sky high windows, and a kitchen with granite countertops, copper sink, and all new appliances, cookware, and dinnerware.

While the chef cooks, keep him company on the leather stools at the granite island, or lounge on the comfy sofas in front of the fire, then sit down all together as a big group at the huge farmhouse style dining table.

On either side of the main room of the lodge are two master bedrooms, each with vaulted ceilings, king beds and full baths. One features matching tongue and groove ceilings as in the main room, plus a huge all-tile master shower. The other full bath features a bath/shower combo.

Off the living room and off of each master bedroom, you'll find a large second floor deck with great views of the mountains, a sleeping bed, and a seating area inside a screened in porch with a huge stone fireplace (gas). Sit outside at night with the fireplace and enjoy the sounds of the mountain!

Off the kitchen, in the backyard, you'll find a covered patio with a large gas grill, and a wooded hill that kids will love to explore.

The house backs to a national forest, so there's nothing behind it but trees, deer, and adventures in the making.

This home is located inside the Massanutten Resort and very close to many of the activities and amenities -- you can be at most activities within 3 minutes by car.

We provide linens/pillows for all beds. When you arrive you will find they are all made up for you, ready to go, unlike many rental homes in the resort. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to cook and serve meals -- just bring your food.

We also provide a pack-n-play and a high-chair in the house for those with babies (bring your own linens for the pack-n-play).

POOL NOTICE: In the summer, we pay for a PLATINUM Guest Pass so that our visitors can access the private Owners Swimming Pool complex in the resort FREE OF CHARGE - just up the road about 1 mile. Not every home owner pays for this guest pass for their guests, so if you rent elsewhere be sure to check on this. Others require you to PAY $6 PER PERSON. Other than this pool, guests at privately-owned rental homes can swim at the huge waterpark during their stay. The Owners Pool is outdoors and only open in the summer, weather and staffing dependent. Free pass is only for the 12 people staying at our home.

Occupancy: 12 persons (all adults and children in the home count towards this limit). As our occupancy is limited to 12 persons at any time, we do not rent this home for parties or events.

Non-Smoking, No Pets Property: This is a non-smoking property. Smoking is not allowed anywhere on the property (outside or inside). And although we understand that many pet lovers travel with their furry friends, this home can not allow pets due to owner's severe allergy.

Minimum Age of Renter: Primary renter must be 27 years of age or older, and the majority of guests must be at least 25 years of age. A list of guests must be provided as part of the rental contract.

Perfect getaway for our large family!

The Aviary is a beautiful home that accommodates large families or multiple families! My children are older now. So we enjoyed playing pool and the many game options! The beds were comfortable and the home was spotless. We didn’t end up cooking, but the kitchen was fully stocked. We also end the screened porch and the large swing! We would definitely stay here again!

Fall Break trip

Great home and beautiful location. We took advantage of the activities in the resort, including the indoor water park and miniature golf. The house was very comfortable for our group - the four kids stayed downstairs and two couples in the upstairs bedrooms. Would definitely choose this property again!

Our third year at The Aviary

This is the third time our family has stayed at The Aviary. We love everything about this house. The location is great. Check-in and check-out are simple. The accommodation is immaculate and there is so much to do around Massanutten. We’ll definitely be back to this house in the future.

Great stay overall but lacking few things

Rented out the property for our family. Was good size and close to the Massanutten resort and park.Only complaints I have about the property-hot water runs out pretty quickly. We tried to shower at home and within 10 minutes the water turned lukewarm to cold. - the shower head downstairs was leaky which made the water pressure terrible - overall lacked a few amenities : didn’t have toothpaste, shampoo,, coffee (things that would have made the stay exceptional, but lacking)

Family 4day kayaking adventure

The Aviary on Trevino Dr was ideal to accommodate 10 of us from 3 generations ages 80 to 13 as we made three 7-mile runs on the nearby Shenandoah river full of small mouth bass. The rental's pool table was a big hit with the men. The well stocked kitchen impressed us. Art work was very lovely and tasteful. A great stay!

Favorite Family Getaway

The Aviary has become our favorite place to vacation. We have stayed twice and both times the property was in immaculate condition. The home is spacious and beautiful. The kitchen is well stocked with essentials and all the pots, pans, and dishes you could need. There is also a closet full of games for all ages. The view from the balcony is so beautiful and the host, Monica, is so lovely and easy to communicate with about checkin/checkout. The resort area is also great - tons of fun things for families to do, but without the pretentious resort feel. This is truly a gem!

Gorgeous!

This place was so beautiful, beyond our expectations! Huge deck with beautiful view towards the mountains. Private screen deck with fireplace and this must be great for winter! My wife and her sisters really love the tall vaulted ceiling. My 82/72 parents-in-law loved the place and have a wonderful time with their children and grandchildren! Our kids love the bunk beds and all kinds of games. My 10 year old son very enjoyed the PlayStation game. We enjoyed shooting pool tables all night the first night! Our young kids love the mini reading room under the stair! Our families have been blessed with great memories and wonderful experience! We’ll definitely come back to visit!

The house was great- pictures don’t do it justice but everything is updated and clean. Big open areas and lots of space. We had a group of 8 and everyone had their own space. Beautiful views and scenery! The location was great. Everything was close(pools,waterpark,adventure park,rec building,general stores,bars,and restaurants). Stores and restaurants outside of the resort were pretty close too. Monica, the property manager was always very responsive and helpful. We are thinking of returning for a winter getaway next time!

Great house & location

Monica's home is beautiful. The kitchen is well stocked with cutlery, dishware, appliances, and pots & pans. The large great room on the main floor was a terrific meeting place for our extended family of 7. Bedrooms are comfortable and bathrooms plentiful. Gas BBQ grill made meal prep easy keeping the kitchen area cool. Clothes washer & dryer convenient on main floor. Traveling to the resort pool and other activities was easy as well as venturing to places of interest in the area as highway access was very close by. This home is highly recommended. With just one zone air cond., the lower level got much cooler than the upper floor. We would shut the AC off at night. Each floor maintained a comfortable temperature through the night.
