This was a great property. It’s nicely located and the owners have really taken the effort to make it welcoming and enjoyable. The place was very clean and there were lots of thoughtful things ( snacks, lots of dinnerware, coffee, teabags, makeup remover) that added a touch of convenience to our visit. The outdoor seating was great and very relaxing. Overall a great place to stay and we would definitely visit again.

Beautiful House

The house was very clean and spacious with little touches throughout. We cooked a couple meals while we were there and found absolutely everything we needed. 6 of us were there for our annual girls weekend and we all had plenty of space for ourselves. The driveway is a bit steep and awkward but we had no problem fitting/parking 3 SUV's. Would definitely stay again!

Wonderful Property

This property was exactly as presented. It was beautiful, clean, and spacious. It was in a very safe and beautiful, quiet neighborhood. Very close to an ice cream shop and great brewery. The third floor bedrooms get a bit hot with just one A/C unit for 3 floors, but I'd stay there again even knowing that. The bedrooms were so beautiful and roomy!Great stay!

Exceptional property close to Harrisonburg

We stayed at Magnolia Lodge to celebrate our son’s graduation from nearby James Madison University. The VPMS staff was very responsive to our questions and provided thorough instructions for arrival and check-in. The property is very clean and well-furnished, with plenty of amenities such as snacks, coffee, extra spices, paper products, and cleaning supplies. We also appreciated the strong wi-fi and games to keep everyone connected and entertained. The steep driveway was a bit challenging when wet, but there is plenty of room for several vehicles. We highly recommend this property and the VPMS team. Thanks for a great stay!

Great House!

We use VRBO nearly every time we travel and Magnolia House is the best-managed property we've ever stayed at! From the cleanliness to the amenities, the house had everything we needed. We traveled with our 18-year-old twins and two friends of theirs. Everyone had their own room and the kids had a separate downstairs den of their own. Overall, it was a great family weekend and we will definitely rent this house again!

Great house

The home is big enough to accommodate a large group but very cozy feeling. The home was very, very clean with many amenities. The towels were fluffy, the kitchen had every appliance we needed, plenty of plates and silverware and a very well stocked beverage bar. The owners were responsive. The driveway is steep and curved but manageable. Overall a great rental property.

Spacious Mountain Gateway

This cabin was the perfect retreat for our group of six. The spacious interior and multiple floors gave us plenty of room to spread out and relax. The cozy fireplaces added a touch of warmth and ambiance to our evenings. The location was convenient, with a short drive to Shenandoah National Park. The quiet neighborhood and comfortable accommodations made for a peaceful and enjoyable stay. Plus, the thoughtful inclusion of snacks was a welcome surprise. We would definitely stay here again!

If it is available -BOOK IT

FLAWLESS from Pre-check in to Post Check out. Property was everything it says it is and the location was perfect. Clean on top of Clean.. Did I mention Clean... Everything worked and the kitchen was more than adequate. Felt like home and then some. No complaints from my entire family. Parents are in their 80's and children are in their 20's. All found the property to their liking and would book it again...

Long Weekend Vaca

Great accommodation, nice size rooms and updated bathrooms. Very warm and loved home. Pretty clean, dog hair on couches and rugs. Found it supprising because the rental agreement stated no pets. There clearly is a pet that stays that affected some family and children's allergies. Found some kitchen utensils to not be fully clean but other then that. Our stay waa great.

What a beautiful, welcoming, comfortable home! The house was spotless, spacious and nicely decorated. The kitchen was generously stocked with absolutely everything you would need from wine and champagne glasses, Pyrex, cutting knives, nice pots and pans etc. There was hot cocoa,snacks, tea, bowls for our dogs etc. I could go on and on - nicest home we have ever stayed in at Massanutten - felt like we were staying at a friends house! Beautiful Christmas tree and stockings on the mantel as well! Would give this home and owners 10 stars if I could.

Christmas family trip at Magnolia Lodge

Magnolia Lodge is a wonderful accommodation. We had a family of 6 adults and 2 grandchildren, 1 and 3 years old. The layout was perfect for us- grandparents on the main floor, parents and grandkids upstairs and the youngest of our kids and her partner on the bottom floor. The beds were great!! First time with no back pain in the morning in months! The details of the home are so inviting. There was a Christmas tree and a place to hang stockings on the mantle — Santa came AGAIN! Little ones so excited. The kitchen was well stocked, with everything one could need. Lots of pots and pans, all sizes, dishes, utensils, everything. And plenty of supplies- soap, dish towels etc. And a supply of snacks, which the toddlers loved, coffee, hot chocolate etc. Finally, the property management company, VPMS, was first rate. We had lots of questions, the response was always prompt and friendly, even when we didn’t expect a response until the next day.Highly recommend Magnolia Lodge!

Shenandoah National Park visit

Absolutely every thing about our stay was perfect with the exception of the convenience of having to do a 20min round trip to drop of the trash. The house was very clean. It was stocked with everything we needed. Everything was in impeccable condition. We stayed here with another family. A total of 10 people. 10 people and cooking meals for our families, including 6 children, meant we had a good amount of trash. It was a 10min drive in one direction to drop off the trash. It was just extremely inconvenient. Trash situation aside, I have not had many better experiences with renting a home for a vacation. It was, overall, a great house. I highly recommend it.

Great for a large group of people!

The lodge was beautiful and extremely neat and tidy when a group of 8 of us arrived. We were surprised by how many kitchen and cooking items there actually were! Although you do have to bring your own food, the lodge had everything we needed to cook and clean. There even were some basic spices and oils for us to use if we wanted (as well as coffee and snacks) although do plan to bring your own groceries (there’s a food lion not far from the lodge). The rooms were big and spacious as well as the bathrooms. There are 3.5 baths and the fire pit and fireplaces were a really great addition. The only thing is that you do have to take your own trash out to the dumpster 2.5 miles away, which in my opinion should be included as a service if I am paying a cleaning fee anyway. Other than that, would definitely recommend to a larger group looking for a quick getaway!

Ski weekend

The property was clean and well furnished. We would have liked to see bunk or twin beds in one of the rooms, but we understand there may be occupancy limits placed on the owners by local ordinance that prevent this. We felt that for the cleaning fees, there should have been a garbage service other than us bringing the garbage 4 miles away or face a $75 fee. We had to plan schedules daily to bring the garbage to the dumpster, which was not part of the plan, especially on check out day when we were going in the opposite direction. I would also encourage renters to read the rental agreement as there were items in the welcome binder that we learned at arrival that would have financially impacted our stay if something had gone awry that we probably should have known before we arrived or we would have asked about short term rental insurance. Overall great house and enjoyable weekend.

Communication from the host was excellent. We got regular updates and helpful information before and throughout our stay. The house was beautiful (loved the Christmas decorations), and very comfortable for everyone. The kitchen was well stocked with more than the basics, including a lot of extras that many rentals do not have. The coffee, tea, hot chocolate bar was extra special along with the snacks (and charging cords). Thank you for thinking of everything to make our stay so easy and enjoyable.
