Great getaway!

We had a wonderful stay! The house was clean and comfortable. The deck is fantastic with lots of privacy and surrounding woods. The location was great for hiking in Shenandoah National Park and we visited nearby restaurants, wineries and a distillery. The host was very responsive with questions I had before we arrived and the property was as described.

Overall a good stay

The house served our purposes. There is a downstairs occupant that we were unaware of and don’t recall seeing anything about. There are also are no televisions in the house. I don’t recall seeing anything about that either. The master bedroom bed was nice and large but pretty uncomfortable. Over all, it was a nice stay for what we needed it for.

Beautiful Property

We were very happy staying at this beautiful home. We were there for just one night, and wished we had made it a longer stay. The home is incredibly comfortable with beautiful art on the walls. The only drawback is that it’s pretty far away from stores and restaurants, so be sure to pack provisions with you so you don’t have to make any extra trips. Communications with the owner and checking into the home was extremely easy!

Beautiful view

The property is beautiful and very isolated. The wrap around porch was amazing. It is a little difficult to get to through a lot of gravel and rough roads and I would not have wanted to get there my first time at night.

Quiet Retreat for Our Family

We had an excellent stay at Hilltop Hideaway. The house was spotless, the beds comfortable, and the showers hot. The wrap around porch was the best though- great for quiet mornings shopping coffee, eating dinner at twilight, and looking at the stars in the evening.
