Birthday get away
It cabin is beautiful with great view of the trees and mountains. We took my mother for her 82nd birthday and had a quiet girls weekend. The cabin is spotless and very charming. It was nice having the 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. There is a lot to do in the area. My sister and I went horseback riding. Mary and Mac were very helpful and available. I can't wait to go back.

Family Thanksgiving
My family gathered in Oct for an early thanksgiving. Our sons had other commitments in Nov and this was a perfect place to be together. There was plenty of space for all. We were close to the resort and had a chance to play mini golf. The rooms are very nicely decorated and the kitchen has an above average array of cookware that is decent quality. The master bedroom on the main level does not have a curtain and is fine for early birds who wake up with the same n but not great if you wish to sleep in. The kitchen counters are black and the over head lighting does not extend into the hinder counter area making it hard to see. The lighting under the cabinets doesn’t do anything to illuminate the counter work space. An investment in under the cabinet lighting would be well worth it. Lowe’s has plenty of reasonable offerings. It is a very nice property and would consider renting again.

Great Cabin
My family and I did our first family vacation over the Thanksgiving holiday at the big bear lodge. The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed. The owners reached out multiple times to ensure we got in ok and were enjoying our stay. They even left us a complimentary bottle of wine which I accidentally forgot to bring home 😔. My favorite part of the cabin is how the two upstairs bedrooms have a small twin bed by the window perfect for a small child. My sister and I both have a child under 5 so it was great to be able to have them in our rooms near us but not in our bed. I definitely recommend this cabin.

Great Cabin Rental
This property was awesome! The cabin was decorated BEAUTIFULLY and really provided a space to relax. The host went out of their way to provide all the necessary amenities. There is a large kitchen and dining room. Lots of deck space! The cabin is set up for a large family or two families, or a group of adults. The views and location were perfect! The back of the cabin backs up against the woods. The pictures don't show it, but there is a huge game room in the basement with an extra queen bed. The hosts of this home were awesome to deal with and delivered great communication. We would consider renting this property again!

Almost gave 5 stars, and really I have no problem with that but...
This log cabin was gorgeous! A fun place to stay. It was very clean and even the cabinets in the kitchen were tastefully labeled as to where everything goes. The game room in the basement was a fun surprise! The only reason I didn't give 5 stars, is because we had to close off one of the upstairs rooms due to wasps. I know this was an unexpected thing and really doesn't reflect at all on the house or stay, and I'm sure will be fixed. One piece of feedback for the owner: the fragrance used in the laundry for the towels and sheets was very strong. I get headaches from strong fragrances, so just a thought on how that could affect your renters. One piece of feedback for Evolve: The agent told us that we would be able to park an RV in the driveway. My in-laws were scheduled to stop in for one night, but thank goodness their plans changed. After being at the resort, I can't imagine anyone would want an RV traveling up the windy roads into where this house is. Also, there is NO WAY an RV could have gone down the steep end of the driveway and safely turned to park there. So Evolve needs to be sure they have that information.

Big Bear Lodge stay in February
This was our second stay at the BBL. Beautiful cabin, great location close to everything Massanutten has to offer. House has all the little things you would need during your stay with a fully stocked kitchen and a playroom in the basement. The only thing I would suggest is adding a curtain in the master bedroom on the first floor. We had a 2-year old with us and it was a bit challenging to keep him in his bed early in the morning when the sun was up. Other than that, great property!

We were so pleased with our stay and it couldn’t have been better. The owners were so personable and made sure that our stay was as enjoyable as humanly possible. Have already recommended it to friends and will keep recommending. Will absolutely stay here again. It was so clean which was the most important thing to us because we have small children.

Absolutely Perfect!
My husband and I stayed at the Big Bear Lodge for our Shenandoah vacation. The photos are accurate yet don’t do it justice. It is spotless, beautiful, and had everything we needed. It’s only a short drive from the park and the living room furniture was perfect for relaxing after a long day of hiking. Most of the properties we’ve booked through VRBO have required us to bring our own sheets, towels and paper products, but they are all provided at the Big Bear Lodge. Mary, was so nice to work with. We can’t wait to go back!

Exceeds Expectations!
This property was immaculate, from the smallest detail to the larger details! Everything was labeled so you knew exactly where it went. The home was decorated BEAUTIFULLY which set the perfect ambience for a mountain lodge. The views and location was perfect! There was a huge game room in the basement with an extra queen bed that was not pictured or added in the description. The only thing that could have made this home even better is a hot tub😄 I would 110% recommend this rental for your next stay in Massanutten! P.S. The host’s of this home were awesome to deal with and delivered great communication.
