Hot Tub - Massage Chair - Game Room - Fenced Yard

Whether you are looking for some rest and relaxation, a home-base for golf, mountain biking, or ski activities, or a place that comfortably allows you to bring your pets, you are sure to find your desired experience at Paws On The Porch. Open concept space with large windows to bring in natural light. Game room with multiple options and a massage chair in the living room. Four bedrooms that comfortably sleep 11.

The space
As you come down to the house, you are immediately met by a large covered porch that has multiple areas to spend time with family, friends, and pets including a large, comfortable sectional couch seating area, a 6-seater dining table with fire feature, and a two-person hammock. The gated stairway allows for easy access to one of the largest grass/yard areas for pets that you will find at the top of Massanutten Resort.

As you walk into the front door, you find an open-concept main floor that easily connects the living room, dining area and beautifully updated kitchen. The large windows bring in lots of natural sunlight during the afternoons until you turn your attention to the ornate fireplace that sits in front of the new leather couches, ottoman, and massage chair. The dining table easily sits 8 individuals while providing adjacent seating for 3 more people at the kitchen countertop. The bright and well-stocked kitchen provides all of the plates, utensils, pots, pans, and appliances that you may need including a dishwasher, large refrigerator with water and ice dispenser, electric stove top, oven, microwave, toaster, keurig and drip coffee machines, blender, crock pot, and more.

The main floor also includes a 75" Smart TV that is equipped with the Roku platform for watching your favorite shows and movies through the YouTube TV subscription or by logging into any of your favorite apps like Netflix, Prime Video or Disney +. This floor also includes a queen-sized bedroom, one full bathroom, and the washer/dryer/laundry closet.

The second floor features a game room with 9 foot shuffle board table that can be used for both shuffle board or shuffle bowling, a full-sized foosball table, and 52" Smart TV with Nintendo Wii gaming console. The Wii includes two guitars and the game Guitar Hero, two steering wheels and the game Mario Kart, and two regular Wii controllers that will allow you to play table tennis, golf, fencing, jet-ski racing, frisbee-dog competitions and all of your other favorite Wii Sports Resort games. This floor also has a king-sized bedroom, a bedroom with full-sized bunk beds, twin sized trundle bed, and a few large children's toys, and finally another full bathroom.

The basement level contains the master suite that comes with a king-sized bed, another large fire place, 58" Smart TV and large master closet. As you walk through the master closet, you find the master bathroom complete with jacuzzi tub, a separate shower and two-sink vanity. This floor also contains a convenient office/work area that comes with a full-sized desk, comfortable leather chair, 27" computer monitor with HDMI cord to set up your extended desktop, as well as a wireless mouse and keyboard should you need to get any work done during your stay. This floor also provides access to the private yard should you prefer to let your pets outside from this level instead of the main floor.

One of the goals for Paws On The Porch is to create the most pet friendly experience for you and your family. You can bring more pets than most houses and utilize the large crate that we have onsite should that be necessary. Pet food and water bowls are provided along with a retractable leash and assortment of dog bones.

Great Pet Friendly Gathering Place
We had a great stay with family to celebrate Christmas. The home is very pet and kid friendly, fenced yard, games and an amazing massage chair that all the adults enjoyed. Nate was great to work with. We had a hiccup with checkin time due to a cleaning staff member calling out sick. Nate was great at offering solutions and we had a great stay!!! Well stocked home, though you may want to bring some plastic / aluminum wrap if you’re making meals. Lovely very clean! Thank you for a great family holiday!!

Family Christmas Gathering
Host Nate was very responsive from day one. The home was everything we thought it would be from the picture and details listed. The game room, hot tub, and massage chair were lovely. The massage chair alone was a huge hit for the family. We also enjoyed movies while resting comfortably by the fireplace and we had lots of laughs around the dining room table. Last but not least, the beds were awesome. Best sleep we had in a long time. We are considering having a family trip once a year and staying at this property. Thank you, Nate!

Snow Fun
This property was ideally located for our tweens and teens to easily experience many winter activity firsts like ice skating, snow tubing, and skiing, and the home setup gave nice separation for play indoors. The home was "over the top" well-appointed, and Natecouldn't have been more responsive. The gas fireplaces and big screen TVs, adaptable to your streaming service, were enjoyed by all! Our pup loved having access to a sufficient fenced in yard that overlooked the beautifully lit ski slopes and golf course. We hope to return in warmer climes to try out the golf, hiking trails, and the many other activities the area offers.couldn't have been screen

Vacation in Massanutten
My spouse and I went with 2 friends for a week. The location and fenced yard for our dog were great. The house could use a deep cleaning. It was okay but could have been cleaner. The deck/porch/ yard could have used some leaf removal. I did get access to a blower once I contacted the host. The housekeepers should use stainless steel cleaner on appliances. The beds were all extremely comfortable.

Terrific location and family friendly
We spent 4th of July week at this home with family. We had a range of people from grandparents to 5 year olds and this house had something for everyone. Kids hung out upstairs in fun loft game room and adults stayed on first floor. Our teenage son had privacy in the spacious downstairs when he wanted to get away. The home is located on resort property and we were able to explore water park, adventure course, mini golf, tennis and mountain biking. Truly something for everyone!!! We didn’t use the hot tub but did explore resort pools. There is a fee to access pools but was worth it for a hot summer. The house is ideal for pet owners. While we didn’t bring our pup because it was a bit too far for him to travel, this home is a dream for pet owners. Fully stocked with a crate, treats, fenced in yard, and lots of trails to explore. Clearly owned by pet-lovers. Owner was super responsive during our stay.

30th Birthday Trip to the Mountains!
Very nice House !! We had 2 hiccups while staying here but we ended up enjoying the house. 1st hiccup was the refrigerator because it was not getting cold and we had just brought groceries ‼️ so he told us to pull it out and we did but could not put it back, my friend had to keep climbing over the counter to get to her room, which was annoying. We asked host to send someone like maintenance but he said there wasn’t one and this isn’t a hotel. After 4 hrs stuff still wasn’t cold or frozen so he offered to get a cooler but a cooler was not gonna work well for 200$ worth of food and drinks. He offered to send someone out and did but the app doesn’t allow phone calls I guess so we Missed the person who came because we were sleeping and they knocked 🥴😂 and could not return .Bummer . Long story short the fridge got cold the next morning and we made the best of the 4 days and had a good time, with the massage chair, hot tub and fire places cause baby it was cold ! I would definitely recommend but communication needs to be improved with the app, host and guest.

Great location and beautiful VRBO
Not knowing anything about the area, we were so pleased that it was in the heart of the resort. This was a beautiful 3 story house with a game room that accommodated both the kids and the grown ups. It is also dog friendly. This was a wonderful vrbo and I would definitely recommend it to anyone that is looking for one in the Massanutten area.

Wonderful Mountain Getaway
Wish we could have stayed longer! Our family of 8 visited the Shenandoah Valley area for the first time this weekend to tour JMU. We were amazed at everything this house had to offer - well stocked and well labeled kitchen, a hot tub, fire table, game loft, comfortable beds. But the favorite seat in the house was the massage chair! Whether downtown exploring Harrisonburg, or in the mountains near the Massanutten Resort, this area has absolutely stunning views, top notch restaurants and shops, and a great vibe! The host is very quick to respond and very accommodating! We can’t wait to return!

Great stay in Massanutten!
Our family of four enjoyed our stay, using the two upstairs bedrooms. The kids loved the bunk beds and the toys and games provided. We had a nice soak in the hot tub with a view of the woods and appreciated the well-stocked kitchen and open floor plan on the main floor for hanging out in the evenings. The location of the house was perfect for accessing the resort while still feeling secluded and quiet. Would definitely suggest it for a visit to Massanutten.

Paws on the Porch
We very much enjoyed our stay at Paws on the Porch in July, 2023. The house was in great condition and the owner went the extra mile to ensure that our stay was enjoyable (i.e. labels on cabinets, a few snacks, first aid kit, etc.). The house was very clean and comfortable for all 8 of us as well as my son’s dog. The 3 floors, with bedrooms and baths on each, worked great for our family. There was plenty of room to spread out and enjoy all that the house offered. The kitchen was very well stocked (pots, pans, dishes) and all cabinets were labeled which was a very considerate touch. We’ve rented many VRBO houses through the years and this one was, by far, the cleanest and most organized that we’ve encountered. The only downside (which is not related to the house) was that the nearby activities were pretty expensive and you had to schedule them at least one day in advance for a bit of a reduced rate. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed Nate’s house and his hospitality.

Lovely property in an amazing location!
We had such a great time at the resort amenities and exploring the area. This house was the perfect home base, with lots of space to lounge and gather together. Our canine guest loved it to - she got lots of wildlife watching on her walks. The provided dog crate was the same one she has at home so she settled right in. The kitchen was very well appointed with everything we needed, and the snack station was much appreciated. The covered porch is also set up great for lounging, with a very comfortable sectional. The massage chair in the living room was used constantly after long days of activity. If we come back in the winter, the two fireplaces, hot tub and outdoor gas fireplace in the table would get a lot of use! Highly recommend this property and it’s host - Nate was very responsive.
