Search Apartments in Basye

"My (now!) fiancee and I were celebrating our 10 year dating anniversary and wanted to get away with our two baby bears (Bernese mountain dogs are the best if you didn't know!) for a staycation within a few hours of the DMV. The Great Escape came up in a pet friendly search, (after an already exhaustive search elsewhere) and seemed to check all of the proverbial boxes (and boy, did it). Not only was the property beautiful, well maintained, clean, well stocked, close enough to everything (but far away, too!), and as serene as we could ask for, it was the perfect place for our bears to run around and play (for the 5 minutes they want to) in a safe, fenced in environment!The side quest of this mission, though, was to surprise my girlfriend with an engagement, and all she ever asked for was it to just be us, somewhere quiet and meaningful, with some record of it happening. There are beautiful cherry blossoms in front of the house, which luckily were in bloom, and I was able to propose while (sneakily) video'ing instead of taking pictures. It was a perfect moment, in the perfect setting, and fortunately, even after making her wait 10 years, she said yes!Don and Linda were amazing hosts who provided us, both before and during our stay, plenty of information, local places to visit/see, all of the amenities we could ask for, comfy beds to lay our heads on, and the pet friendliness you won't get from anywhere else. It truly was our great escape, and one of our greatest memories."

"Fantastic hotel with helpful and friendly staff. Loved the historic building and the hottub was a real highlight."

"The room and hotel were older but updated and very clean. The location was convenient to walking downtown to shops and restaurants."

"The room was nice however whoever cleans the room did not wipe down the desk there was black stuff on it and the bathroom room counter could have been cleaned better . That’s me being picky but for the cost we pay the room should spotless. "

"Convenient area close to interstate"

"Easy access, friendly staff, nice room, pet friendly, nice breakfast"

"Fourth time here and it never gets old!!! absolutely gorgeous!"

"Friend clued us in to ask for a room not on the highway side.....hotel provides ear plugs because sound is annoying. Apparently highway built after the hotel"

"Family and I loved our stay at Whistling Woods Retreat! Relax by the fire and take in the blue ridge mountains! Short drive to luray and Shenandoah national park. Tons of games and places to explore on the property for the kids. Definitely Recommend ! "
