About this property

Quiet Home in Harrisonburg with Spectacular Shenandoah Valley Views.

This home is located on a hill and has a stunning view of the Shenandoah Valley. The large front porch offers a relaxed setting for conversation, eating, watching the clouds, or reading great books. The interior is light, airy, and spacious. The kitchen is well-equipped with tableware, dishes, pots and pans. Fair-trade coffee, tea, and sugar are provided. There is parking space for three cars in the driveway. In addition to the spectacular view, the home offers quick and easy access to EMU and JMU in minutes. There are grocery stores conveniently located near-by and delicious food within walking distance, including Bowl of Good and La Morena's. The Blue Ridge Mountains to the east and the George Washington National Forest to the the west. Both areas are renown for skiing, hiking and biking trails, and dramatic foliage in the fall. We are also about fifteen miles from Massanuttan Ski Resort and Water Park.
The area around Harrisonburg hosts a number of music festivals, including Red Wing Roots Festival, Shenandoah Valley Bach Festival, and the Shenandoah Music Festival. The town has a quiet small town charm with impressive public parks and an Annual Chocolate Walk in addition to other festive events throughout the year. As an added bonus, area universities offer a wide range of cultural performances throughout the year. And the splendid American Shakespeare Blackfriars Playhouse is a mere thirty minutes away in Staunton, Virginia.
There is a separate apartment over the garage to our house where a friend of the family lives. Their apartment is separate from the house but they park in the garage sometimes so please avoid parking them in.

Reunion

Three old friends get together once a year to catch up while seeing new areas of the country. We met at Harrisonburg, Va this year and stayed in this Vrbo. The house was exactly as advertised: clean, comfortable, spacious and located in a quiet neighborhood convenient to all the amenities we were looking for. Can honestly say that we would all recommend this place to accommodate visitors to the area.

Another beautiful stay

This house is lovely, well-equipped and has beautiful views from the living room, front porch and two of the bedrooms out to the mountains. It is a great place for a family vacation or get-together. It is spacious with five bedrooms, and a number of other spaces for cozy chats, movie-watching, and meals together. This was our second stay in the house, and we hope for another. When a question came up, Mary was quick to respond with help and advice.

Great place to stay

This was a perfect place for us to stay during EMU's graduation. The college was literally just a few minute walk away. The house was very clean and large. We enjoyed relaxing on the porch taking in the amazing view of the valley. Would definitely stay here again.
