Location location
Clean and great location to the slopes and snow tubing. It took a while for the cabin to warm up. Thermostat is controlled by outside source/owner. We agreed to early check in and I believe communication was lost so heating the cabin was delayed. However once the cabin was warmed up it stayed warm and cozy! Beautiful cabin.

Awesome log cabin
Long weekend visit by 2 families with young boys. Loved this beautiful, spacious, and clean log-cabin-style house in a quiet, scenic, and super convenient spot. Had a lot of fun using the pool table. Under 3-minute drive to skiiing and under 10-minute drive to water park. Watch out, the driveway is steep like others in the neighborhood - scraped our car going up the first time. Sticklers in my group pointed out some dust up high on tops of beams, but I had to squint to see it. Beds for 6 people. Beyond that it's futons or pull out sofa.

Spacious cabin close to ski resort
Great stay for January ski trip in clean and well equipped cabin! Nestled on the mountains, the cabin build and decor make it feel like a true mountain getaway. Our party consisted of two moms and three 14-15 year old boys. The pool room was great and allowed the boys separation from us as well as entertainment. The main floor was spacious and open and there was plenty of room for everyone. There had been 4-5"of snow several days before our arrival. Great for skiing but not for getting up the driveway. Please note the driveway is steep! It was not shown in the listing pictures or mentioned in reviews. I had ruled out other properties based on driveways alone, since I booked close enough to our trip date to know snow was a possibility.It been salted and somewhat cleared however, there was some snow/ice at the base of the driveway that prevented either of our cars from getting up during our 3 night stay(temps in the 20s all week). We parallel parked at the bottom of the driveway and unpacked from there.I ended up blowing out my knee(ACL tear) on the slopes and the driveway was daunting for the rest of the stay, obviously not the homeowners fault. The cabin is in a great location and takes maybe 2 minutes to drive to the resort. I was hoping the boys could walk to ski but I only saw small lockers at the resort so we couldn't leave skis and snowboards there.Highly recommend Mostly Porch if a steep driveway is not an issue for you. Lori was responsive and easy to work with.

Mini Family Christmas Vacation
Overall, this is a lovely house to stay in at Masssanutten Resort. The location is excellent as is the floor plan of the house. The wood indoors is beautiful. Great place for a family getaway with a spacious kitchen and den. The pool room is lots of fun. I would recommend the owner upgrade the kitchen with a knife set, dishwashing soap, new potholders, and some tupperware. The only real disadvantage was the cleaning crew was not good prior to our visit. I realize this is out of the owner's control and will be speaking to management about this. I would definitely stay here again. Nice property!

Great stay !
Was an excellent property! When we arrived we were greeted by a huge buck deer and many does . They showed up daily ! Great house, no issues and great neighborhood and location. Only suggestion I have is to have the cleaners get to the ceiling fan and beams in the family room . It is very high but we noticed a lot of dust up there and didn’t want to turn ceiling fan.. it’s just a suggestion and didn’t take away from our stay at all . Very pleased and thank you, Tony

A lovely spacious home
A lovely spacious house. We all enjoyed being there and had a great week’s holiday. There was plenty to do for the children in the resort. We were blessed by having brilliant warm weather, the AC kept us nice and cool in the evenings. We have put 5 stars for communication as that field had to be filled in, but we did not need to make contact (perhaps we should have as we could not find either a hairdryer or a kettle).

Clean and comfy in the mountains!
My family loved this place! Plenty of space in every room, 4 bathrooms, the softest beds ever, softest couch ever, and beautiful porch! All 3 neighbors were super quiet so you can really take in the quiet of the mountains. I’m a SUPER light sleeper (I can’t even handle white noise) so I recommend that anyone like me to bring earplugs because the heating system turns on and off frequently. No one else in my family even noticed though so it really is just a fair warning to those who wake up at every little noise like me! Lori was awesome and responded so fast to every question. Like how does the shower work!? She responded in record time that you simply pull down on the circular ring on the tub spout. Easy peasy once we knew that! The place was clean and well stocked. They have definitely remedied any issues spoken of in past reviews. Dishwasher seemed new, plenty of towels, etc. We didn’t do any resort activities but they were all just a short drive away. Instead we went on lots of hikes, antique shops, explored the lavender farm, and the arboretum. I really regret not booking the Walk a Paca! They book out 2 weeks and you get to take an adorable alpaca for a walk! So if you’re reading this and are about to book this beautiful place, go reserve a time to walk an alpaca too! Experiences! ❤️

We live in Virginia Beach and have made visiting Massanutten resort an annual to biannual trip. My husband and kids love to snowboard and staying at Mostly porch made the experience even more enjoyable. The property was everything you would expect of a mountain escape. The scenery was beautiful, the decor was just right, and it smelled of wood and cleanliness when you walked in. My family and I hope to stay here every time we visit Massanutten for years to come. Thank you for a wonderful winter escape.

Perfect place for graduation weekend
Our son was graduating from JMU and we wanted a place that was close and spacious enough for family and friends. Mostly Porch was exactly what we were looking for. It is very spacious and very clean. We had a little celebration and needed to do some cooking and the kitchen was fully stocked with all of the utensils, pots and pans that were needed. The basement has a pool table which was perfect for the kids to go where they were away from the adults. The porches were very nice and offered a great place for morning coffee. Overall we had a great weekend at the house and would rent again if we needed something for a family gathering in that area.
