Cozy Golf, Bike, Lake Cottage 3 br/2.5 bth 5 min. Bryce Resort

King’s Cottage is a four season getaway that has amazing comfort, location, and cleanliness! Centrally located, the spacious 3 bedroom cozy home is less than a five minute drive to Bryce Resort. Resort activities throughout the year include: golfing, biking, hiking, water activities and more! Shenandoah countryside is just a short drive to vineyards, Skyline Drive, and festivals, to name a few. Free access to pool (not in resort). This gem attracts spring/summer vacationers, Fall leaf-lookers, and winter skiers.

The Space

Inspired by a minimalist yet modern Scandinavian lifestyle, this charming 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home sits right outside of Bryce Resort. It is completely surrounded by the fresh mountain air and the beauty of nature at its best. This home was thoughtfully designed to make you and your guests feel relaxed and comfortable. The space is perfect for a family, group of friends or even a couple’s getaway. Three bedrooms and two full bathrooms are located upstairs and the half bathroom is on the main level. Free high speed wireless Internet access throughout the house, perfect for remote work. Close enough where you’ll have easy access to local stores and restaurants, yet far enough from the city to allow for an escape into the natural world around you.

Outside-

To make your arrival at ease, we use the keyless entry system. There is ample parking in front of the house area as there are no assigned parking spaces.

Simply soak in nature’s sounds and unwind with your favorite drink in hand.

Inside-

Open floor plan that overlooks the great room so the entire family can remain connected, even as meals are being prepared. You can gather by the fireplace and watch a flick while munching on complimentary goodies from the welcome basket.

The smart TV has the following apps available:

-Disney Plus
-HBO Max
-Prime Video
-YouTube

**Only Netflix will be provided with rental. All other apps will need to be signed in with your personal login. In the mood for music instead? Enjoy listening to your favorite music of choice with our retro designed Bluetooth AM/FM radio.

Great place to stay!
Couldn’t have asked for a cleaner or quieter place to stay! Very comfortable beds, plush new towels,and a very courteous host who promptly responded to our inquiries. Beautiful area - enjoyed exploring Shenandoah National Park and Shenandoah Caverns. Love having Lake Laura, the Community Store (great deli sandwiches), the Copper Kettle, the Burn Barrel, Pale Fire Brewing, and of course, Smiley’s (our favorite!) close by. Enjoyed mini golf and the ski lift at the resort, as well as the beauty of the surrounding area. Saw a deer on our drive up the hill, and many cool birds while drinking our coffee on the deck. Would highly recommend staying here!

Wedding weekend
We were at the Bryce Resort for a family wedding and needed a place to accommodate ourselves, children and grandchildren. This place was perfect for our needs. Recently renovated, the owners were very thorough and thoughtful in every detail. The kitchen was well equipped, with everything clearly labeled and the bathrooms were updated and pristine. For background, we are former sort term property owners in a southern resort area, so we have seen it all from both sides. I would recommend this home for anyone looking to stay in the area.
