"We had a wonderful time enjoying this cabin with our family. My kids 10 and 7 LOVED the pool and hot tub along with the fact they had their own space to hang out and play in the basement. It was a very relaxing few days and was truly an oasis."

"Last minute stay for a family funeral. Worked for our needs. Rooms were nice & beds comfortable. Some of the furniture in living area could use an upgrade. Everything was usable. The fridge has no shelves on the door & missing some in the freezer as well. Limited on space for groceries if staying longer. Note that it is not as close to anything as the description & map implies (not an 8 minute walk to McDonalds). I liked the peacocks that wandered and the other animals. This house is a...

"Came here in the offseason for a getaway, had a lovely time. Nicely appointed apartment with a very modern feel, it'd be a pleasant place to stay even if it wasn't overlooking gorgeous, wooded mountains. The hosts were very communicative. Sufficiently speedy internet for a remote work getaway or video streaming."

Wintergreen Pet-Friendly Condo: Walk to Mountain Inn & Slopes
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (272)
"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this condo. Quiet neighborhood and very comfortable. Appreciated all the basics offered that other rentals do not such as soap, garbage bags, toilet paper. But the owners went above that and had lotions, specialty soaps, cleaning supplies etc. Well stocked kitchen for cooking. While it was just the two of us we liked that there were games available for families and there was a nook upstairs for kids to get away. Highly recommend and would definitely come visit...

Cut through to Blue Ridge Parkway from the neighborhood allowed for great biking without having to descend/ascend the long road up from the entrance."

"We had a great time. The house was comfortable and the area is beautiful! The only issues we had were a humming of the fan in the master bedroom upstairs, the door lock didn’t work for us (but the owners helped with this and all was well), and we had a hard time finding where to dump trash. The hot tub was wonderful, the wifi works great (we had one doing online school and one work), and all was just as the listing described. It was a great place to stay for a Liberty University graduation. If...
