Back creek valley
A well maintained beautifully situated house with just the right amout of landscaping without being too busy or crowded. The mountain views, valley drive in, and proximity to GW National Forest & town were perfect for us. There was plenty for us to do at the house as well as amenities offered inand around town. Host was responsive to our requests.

Fall Get Away
We wanted a quiet getaway in the Shenandoah valley. We found it with this lovely home. My favorite spot was sitting on the covered back deck, listening to the brook. The pool table was an added bonus. The kitchen had everything we needed. The views as we biked down the road to the sugar house was the best. Ellis and Manette are the perfect host. If we ever head back, we would absolutely rent this home again.

Simply Amazing!
Stunning property! Very quiet and peaceful. Maybe 5 cars passed it all day long!! The house and porch were very clean with a fully equipped kitchen. The view from the hot tub at night over the mountain is amazing and very well maintained as well. My husband and I stayed 5 days and did not want to leave. Plenty to do with the pool table, darts and ping pong. And, the cleared path was awesome for our pupps. The firepit & creek were perfect to sit by and relax. Manette and Ellis were very responsive and even brought us fresh eggs and extra firewood! As much as I would love this place all to myself - I highly recommend visiting for just a couples retreat or family outing.

Perfect relaxing trip
Had a GREAT time here! House was beautiful and perfect! Trail was well marked and obviously well maintained. Creek out back was so nice to the ears, nice fire pit (didn’t use because it was rainy). Host was super nice and attentive about any questions I had. Great place to stay, would highly recommend!!

Great spot to get away. Need to know to get groceries and things as you come in. The closest store was about 20-30min away. Hot water was great, but only seems to work at one spot at a time. Hot tub and sauna were an excellent amenity.

peace and quiet in the mountains
The house and grounds were amazing. So peaceful and relaxing. Mannette and Ellis are wonderful to work with. The pictures do not do it justice. The owners have done a marvelous job of fixing up the house and providing activities to make this a destination vacation. They have a pool table,sauna, hot tub, ping pong table, board games, creek, fire ring, kids playground area, a gazebo. it is absolutely wonderful. it is out in the middle of nowhere without cell service, but they have very reliable 5g internet at the house so you can still text and voip. If you want to get away from it all, but still have all the amenities' plus a lot more, this is the place for you. wonderful nature trails, Green Bank Observitory is just 45 minutes away, Our family of 5 plus dog were all very, very happy hanging out, playing in the creek, making smores, exploring some of the surrounding Townes and just generaly having a lot of time to ourselves to connect.

When it got dark and the stars came out over the mountain opposite the back porch, the face of the mountain started to twinkle with dozens of fireflies. It was truly magical!

Amazing & Awesome
My daughter & I stayed 3/16 - 3/19. We were a little late arriving Thursday night and had a slight hiccup with the code to enter the house. Once we reached the owners (cell reception in area is poor but we were aware of it) the issue was quickly resolved and we were on our way to a wonderful weekend. The pictures and description doesn’t do this place justice. I honestly thank the owners for sharing such a beautiful place with others. If it were mine I don’t know if I would be able to, would want to keep it to myself!! 😉 Definitely will stay again and looking forward to it!!!

We had an amazing stay at Blue Grass. The house is very comfortable and the back creek and location are the highlights. When we got to the house there were goodies and fresh eggs that the owners left for us, such a nice gesture... We definitely recommend.
