This home DOES have a newly installed Ring camera by the front door.

Peaceful Vista is a gorgeous, recently refurbished chalet-style home with the most amazing views. Set high among the trees above the Mountain Greens golf course, this home offers panoramic views across Massanutten Valley through the wrap-around French windows of the vaulted-ceiling family room, and from its large, two-level deck. With four bedrooms and three full bathrooms, a gas-log fireplace, gas grill, a large deck and a beautiful well-appointed kitchen - all your mountain vacation comforts are cared for!
Bring family and friends to Peaceful Vista for a relaxing or adventurous getaway. Hang out in front of the toasty gas log fireplace (Oct 01 through Mar 31, only) with one of the books on the bookshelf, play some board games with the family, grill dinner & eat on the deck that seems to float above the trees - and enjoy the recreational facilities nearby in Massanutten.

Large upstairs and downstairs decks provide plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors at the house, with an outdoor love seat and coffee table, outdoor dining, lounge chairs and a gas grill.
There is a set of stairs that lead directly from the parking area to the home. There is also a new walking path from the parking area that leads directly to the home (this is pictured!). Enter the home into the kitchen. To the immediate right of the front door is the laundry area, to the left is the upgraded kitchen. Cherry cabinets, granite counter tops, stainless appliances and a well stocked kitchen (Coffee grinder, French press and drip coffee makers, blender, mixing bowls and mixer, slow cooker, and some pantry items like herbs and spices) mean the kitchen is ready for the cook! The refrigerator dispenses filtered chilled water and ice.

Off the kitchen is the airy dining area and the living room, with a high, vaulted ceiling, wrap-around French windows and doors to the deck – all offering a wonderful view across the valley.

The dining area is surrounded by patio doors, so you've got plenty of natural light. The living room has a gas log fireplace (use from Oct 1st through Mar 31stm ONLY), a wall-mounted large, flat screen SMART TV which allows guests to log on and use their own streaming services (e.g. Netflix, Prime, etc. - remember to bring your id and password!) as well as basic cable service, and beautiful European crafted leather furniture. Oh, and that beautiful view out the big windows!

Down the hall are two bedrooms and a full bathroom. The first bedroom has a new double bed and well stocked bookshelf. The second bedroom has a twin-over-twin bunk bed. The full, modern bathroom has a tub and shower.

The door in the kitchen leads to the downstairs level where there is a large family room that is also used as a bedroom. There is a twin day bed with twin trundle bed for additional sleeping, a flat screen TV (not smart or on cable, but is linked to a DVD player and with an HDMI port if you wish to bring your own gaming or streaming device), well stocked entertainment center with new games, new game table, and a dedicated work space that offers great views of the valley! Attached to the room is a full bathroom with a tub and shower. Patio doors lead to the sheltered lower-level deck, where you can relax on the hammock or deck furniture while enjoying stunning views of the valley!

All the way back upstairs, up even from the living room, is the primary bedroom which has a queen bed, large closet, and an en-suite bathroom with a tub and shower. With the dual doors to the primary bedroom opened there is a mountain view from the bedroom and loft.

We had a wonderful time at Peaceful Vista. The home was clean, well kept and had incredible views. The kitchen was well stocked and the property manager was quick when I had a question. Our family could not have asked for a better place to stay to celebrate JMU graduation!

Great location, pretty view, well- stocked kitchen, not enough seating in LR, no TV in master, check cleanliness before moving in. About 20 steep steps to enter home.

Beautiful views, great location. Worked well for 3 of us but would have been tight quarters for more than 4 or 5, particularly if you don't fit well on a double bed. Only issue at all was the sheets-- they were washed with a very strong-smelling chemical detergent. I had a terrible time sleeping with the smell; eventually I had to cover the pillowcase, bottom sheet and top sheet with towels we brought (bring towels!) to try to sleep. Would not stay there again, just because of the smell of the sheets. Would have liked to have one more blanket too - it was quite cold. Other than the chemical smell of the sheets, it was GREAT!

We had a great time at this property over MLK weekend. Easy directions with after hours check in, great location up the mountain by the skiing and tubing with easy parking, well stocked kitchen, great views and house as expected. We got some nice fresh snow the first morning that didn’t stick further down the mountain which was great for the kids. The 2 adult beds are checked as queens although the write up does say one is a double. I believe both are doubles but I didn’t measure them or anything. Either way we had a great time and it was big enough for the 10 of us with 6 kids under 10. House was very clean and had a nice selection of games.

The home is located within great proximity to skiing and snow tubing at the resort. The views from the deck are very peaceful. The kitchen is well stocked.However, the listing states it sleeps 10. When we booked our reservation, the listing showed that there was supposed to be 8 beds available. It listed a queen, a double, a day bed with a trundle, a twin bunk bed AND two twin beds in the bunk room. After checking in, we realized that there were only 6 beds. I reached out to the property management company about the incorrect listing. I was told that I must be confused and that there was only a bunk bed in the bunkroom. I explained that I had screenshots of the listing to prove what we actually booked. They immediately changed the VRBO listing to reflect the actual number of beds. I requested a partial refund since we did not get what we contracted for. The management company stopped replying to all of my emails and phone calls and said the owner would not offer a credit. Be prepared if you have more than 8 people (of which 4 should only be children) that you should bring sleeping bags or an air mattress as they state that the house sleeps 10.There were also some maintenance issues. The upstairs toilet did not work during our stay. The travel crib for infants/toddlers was broken. The board games are all missing pieces and need to just be thrown away.Also be prepared to load up all of your trash and drive around the resort to find a dumpster in a parking lot as your cl

The house views were very beautiful and very close to all the great amenities. The issues I had was that there was no actual bedroom in the basement just a common area that we didn’t use much. Also there was a serious problem with ants in kitchen area. We had ants on our fruits and anything left on the counter top. The furniture was outdated and not enough of it for a house that can accommodate 12 people. Also the instructions sent for checking in were not very clear.

My group entered the house and could not determine if the cleaning crew had done their job. The beds were half-made and unkept, so we could not tell if the linens had been changed. The hand towel in the bathroom was soaking wet, again having us doubt it had been cleaned. We found balloons floating around on the floor, so there had obviously been some form of party, but nobody had bothered to clean up, or if they did, the did a very poor job. We notified the property manager immediately upon check-in (per the check-in instructions) on a Saturday, yet did not hear back from them until Tuesday, a full day after we had checked out. The property is nicely located, yet our experience with the cleanliness and poor communication with the property manager made for a bad experience. There are other properties that we have rented in the neighborhood managed by other groups that are better suited for a family trip and more reliable in terms of cleanliness and responsiveness.

We had a very strange experience with this property management company. They let our Vrbo reservation lapse, so we had to book twice. Check-in is very odd: keys for all leased properties are in envelopes with folks' names in a common lock box (that has a shared code) at their office, a few miles from the property. Not sure why keys couldn't be in individual lock boxes at the actual units. Nobody was in the office during check-in or checkout. I never spoke to anyone from Massanutten Vacation during our stay. Combined with some cleanliness/quality control issues, it felt like the management company was only staffed part time. Overall, the unit is nice. The view is fantastic, as advertised, and the house is spacious. It's not in bad shape, but we ended up sharing with the management a list of minor things that added up to us just never feeling quite comfortable. - can't lock deadbolt from inside - kitchen counter, cookware, dishes all dirty - sink smells - no dish soap, sponge filthy - fridge makes an incessant clicking sound, all day, all night - carpet stained and dirty - first light in master doesn't work - tub in master doesn't drain unless manually held open; fills instantly while you're showering - mildew on shower curtains Property manager Laresa responded after our trip and was very apologetic. She says the cleanliness and maintenance issues will be addressed.

This is a nice location and a property with lots of potential, but the carpets and floors were sticky and stained, the bathroom drains did not work properly, and there was a bit of a sewer-like smell near the main floor bathroom when we arrived. The sofas are collapsed and dirty, and the mattress in the upstairs bedroom is very uncomfortable. The house has a lot of potential, but needs significantly better maintenance.
