DC-VA Family Trip

Loved the house, plenty of room for the family. Loved having family dinners at the giant dining room table. Had out of state family visiting VA who wanted to see DC and the Shenandoah Valley so the location worked out great. I would definitely rent the house again.

Relaxing Stay

The entire family loved the layout of the house. It felt so comfortable and inviting. I especially loved the little “reading room” off to the side of the dining room. My wife loved the decor.

Lovely home

We enjoyed our stay at the big sunny family house. There was plenty of room for all of us! The parking in the back of the house was especially nice so we didn’t have to back out onto the busy road in the front driveway.

Great thanksgiving getaway

This house is a larger house that would be absolutely perfect for a thanksgiving dinner. There is a huge dining room table that could seat probably 16 comfortably. We really appreciated the comfortable bedrooms and beds with plenty of extra pillows and blankets. As a small family we loved being able to spread out and chill after hiking at Shenandoah, which is minutes away.

Best stay yet!

This was the best property we have stayed among at least 5 others in the recent past. The house was clean, well equipped, and everything worked as it should. Plenty of room for our 6 people family, close to downtown Front Royal, and close to Christendom College (we dropped off our daughter to college there over the weekend). Will definite choose this place again.

Perfect stay for a large family

Our stay at Joy's and Patrick's place was fantastic. The house is very clean, spacious, comfortable, and well equipped with everything you need for your stay even with a large family as ours (4 adults, 5 children). Joy and Patrick are wonderful hosts and very helpful and did everything to make us feel welcome. We definitely recommend the place if you are planning a trip to Front Royal, VA.

Beautiful!

The house was a beautiful, old farmhouse house. There were notes all around, giving clear guidance on where things were located. It was very clean and beautifully decorated. My favorite part was the large dining room table that allowed everyone to sit down and eat together. I would definitely stay there again.

Family Get together

The property was the perfect location for our family get together. We were able to spend a day Monticello as well as multiple trips into Shenandoah National park. Both were easy to access with the Park being only a few minutes from the house. It was also a short walk into town for dinner or ice cream. Would stay there again.
