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. Reconnect with nature by relaxing on the balcony looking at beautiful views of the forest. Or walk over to the front patio where you can gather by the warm, crackling fire pit and roast marshmallows! 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.
