Excellent views and wildlife abounds.
Beautiful cabin…we loved it… the driveway was another story. I think a winter stay there would be very questionable unless you own your own snowplow. It is very steep and challenging to navigate even in dry warm weather.

Okay
Overall served its purpose, when we arrived the towels were wet, trash under the beds, and mold on the shower liner. There was a few bottle caps on the deck as well. Looks like the house had or has water damage. Looks to be in the middle of a repair. Driveway was very steep and from other reviews people said the same. No way you can turn around at the top. Probably would not stay here again.

Ski Trip
Property was great - only complaints I have are: 1.TV was outdated and had to download ROKU app to work the smart TV downstairs - upstairs TV not a smart TV. 2. Driveway was extremely steep but that was explained on property listing. 3. No Air Fryer - I had brought my own just in case. 4. One of the Doors didn't open, door handle/lock was jammed. 5. Need new Ice Trays - ones provided were cracked and broke but still worked. Suggestion: HOT TUB would have been great - plenty of room in the House. Overall: Great Stay and would highly recommend this house.

Graduation Weekend
The driveway was as steep as warned, but not unmanagable. The deck and outside furniture were in need of a good cleaning. When I entered the home, the floor was a bit dirty, but after a good sweeping, it was fine. The toaster oven and coffee maker needed cleaning as well. Everything else was great, and the home provided us with a great place to sleep, eat and hang out during our son's JMU graduation weekend. I would definitely stay again, but a good cleaning would have made it a perfect place.

Nice house with great view
This was a nice property in the Massanutten resort area. Property was up high providing a great view. Enjoyed sitting on the deck in the morning enjoying the sunshine. Saw a fox on the deck one morning and deer in the woods around the house. Plenty of space in the house.

Lovely light-filled mountain house
Lovely light-filled house with huge wrap around porch and giant windows/cathedral ceiling. For evenings, I would suggest adding a few more lamps to the great room because I don't love overhead lighting. There is a closet full of puzzles and games, and even a few stocked toyboxes for the littles. Very nice, stocked kitchen. Lots of extra comforters/blankets in closets (in case someone needs to sleep on couch). Love the balcony off the upstairs primary suite The host, Lori, was very responsive to messages. Guests be advised the driveway is quite steep and a little tricky. One suggestion might be to provide larger bath towels, but we would happily use this lovely home again. P.s. we enjoyed the nearby mini golf course!

Great fall weekend getaway
The house is in a great location and it is nice and clean with a well-equipped kitchen. Lori the owner/property manager was very responsive to my request for additional towels. The driveway is very steep and took some getting used to. And one of the kitchen drawers broke while there. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were very comfortable in Gobblers Roost!

What a Wonderful Vacation Home!
Our family was thrilled to stay in such a warm and perfectly-outfitted home! Lori was amazingly accommodating and went out of her way to ensure we had everything we needed! Everything about the home is comfy and cozy. The recliner was my favorite spot, and all of the beds have super soft comforters. We enjoyed every minute of our vacation at Massanutten!

Lovely Mountain Home
We really enjoyed our stay! It was a cozy home away from home. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware, glasses, dishes, etc. There were plenty of games to play as well as toys for little ones. The beds were comfortable, and our kids loved the bunkbeds. The keyless entry was so convenient. The owner provided very clear and thorough directions and information for the home. We had a couple questions, and the owner was quick to respond within 10-15 min. The home also had a nice view of the slopes! Our boys were excited about the gaming system, but we were not able to get it to show on the screen, could have been user error. We were a little disappointed there were not many cable channels to choose from, but they did have a DVD player so you could bring movies to watch when you have down time. Overall, it was a wonderful mountain getaway, and we would definitely recommend it!

Great for family mountain getaway
Our family (parents and 3 young kids) stayed at this property for 5 nights just before the thanksgiving holiday. The property was very clean, check in was a breeze, and the house worked great for our family. The owner responded very quickly to a few questions I sent before our visit, and fortunately our stay had no issues that required contacting again. The house is really well located within the Massanutten resort area. Even though we were there in sort of the off-season between summer and winter, there were still plenty of fun things to do with the kids. It would be a great family property during ski season, and we’d love to return again for that.

Gorgeous View
We love that the property was elevated sort of on a mountain range so we can see the nice view ahead. The only drawback with this property was that, it was not cleaned well. The deck was full of leaves when we arrived. We had to clean the deck ourselves because we hate to see the site of scattered leaves on the deck. The property was not dusted very well cause we see them on the blinds and even on the decors in the bathroom. There are no instructions in the house binder on how to operate the TV and their game console. Nevertheless, we were vacationing to unplug so that is not important for us. The house was spacious though and kitchen is well stocked with the culinary supplies that a chef may need in a "home away from home."

Beautiful location
We were a little worried about the driveway after reading previous reviews but honestly it was more fun than a concern. It was very steep but also short with good traction and plenty of room to park and turn around. The home is large and comfortable with a big kitchen and open floor plan. The wrap around deck was fantastic and provides a gorgeous view and a great deal of outdoor space. The Swift Run Gap entrance to Shenandoah National Park is about a 20 minute drive, there is a grocery store quite close, and the surrounding resort & golf course could provide plenty of entertainment! We spent our days hiking through SNP, our afternoons relaxing on the deck and the evenings cooking in the lovely kitchen. The area was difficult to leave and we definitely plan to return. The home itself could use some TLC but it provided plenty of room in a desirable location.
