Beautiful!
The house was a beautiful, old farmhouse house. There were notes all around, giving clear guidance on where things were located. It was very clean and beautifully decorated. My favorite part was the large dining room table that allowed everyone to sit down and eat together. I would definitely stay there again.

Wonderful, large and beautiful house
The house was exactly what we needed. We go away every year and this house was big enought for all of us. Lived the comfortable beds and living room. Will hopefully be back.
The house is in a great location and setup perfect for a large family. Modern kitchen and good sized living and dining room. We enjoyed our stay.

Great thanksgiving getaway
This house is a larger house that would be absolutely perfect for a thanksgiving dinner. There is a huge dining room table that could seat probably 16 comfortably. We really appreciated the comfortable bedrooms and beds with plenty of extra pillows and blankets. As a small family we loved being able to spread out and chill after hiking at Shenandoah, which is minutes away.

Great home with all the little touches
Clean house with lots of space! Well stocked with all the necessities and little added extras that made for a wonderful stay for girls weekend! There were 4 of us and we had more house than we needed but loved it because we all had our own bedroom. Owners are very responsive. We had no issues and will definitely be back! Walking distance to town with shopping, restaurants, and wineries.short drive to hiking trails and more wineries!

Great house in a great location
This was a girls’ trip for a homesteaders conference. We enjoyed the spacious living spaces; the pictures just don’t give them justice. We had meals around the large dining table, then moved into the large living room for further conversation and fellowship.
The bedrooms were great also.
The neighborhood hosts several restaurants and coffee shops.
Just a great experience!

Six lady golfers stayed at Big Sunny and traveled to Gainesville to attend the Solheim Cup. We golfed at Shenandoah Valley Golf Course. We enjoyed the house very much. It had everything we needed. It was well supplied with all the extras! Nice to be in walking distance to restaurants and shops.

Best stay yet!
This was the best property we have stayed among at least 5 others in the recent past. The house was clean, well equipped, and everything worked as it should. Plenty of room for our 6 people family, close to downtown Front Royal, and close to Christendom College (we dropped off our daughter to college there over the weekend). Will definite choose this place again.

Family stay
A wonderful house with outstanding hosts! I cannot say enough good things about it. Convenient location, flexible accommodation, well equipped kitchen and lots of extra touches. We were 3 adults, a 10 year old, and an 8 year old. We enjoyed watching the Olympics, swimming in the Front Royal pool, walking by the river, and visiting the Handley Library in Winchester. We are relocating to this area from East Texas and found this visit very helpful.

Family Get together
The property was the perfect location for our family get together. We were able to spend a day Monticello as well as multiple trips into Shenandoah National park. Both were easy to access with the Park being only a few minutes from the house. It was also a short walk into town for dinner or ice cream. Would stay there again.

Great home and location
Lovely charming home in a great area. Very close to the national park and make sure to explore the town as well. Only thing to note is that the downstairs bedroom is not really suitable for a couple (two separate beds, one of which is on the floor) and the bathroom is separate at well. So we all ended up upstairs sharing a bathroom. But still there was ample space. The hosts were very responsive to any issue or questions we had.

Family stay for Christendom Wedding
This house was perfect for our family to work from for our son's wedding. We relaxed on the back deck around the fire pit at night, ate around the huge dinning room table, threw 100 napkins in the washer downstairs, and hosted the groomsmen for a gathering after the rehearsal dinner. The kitchen was well stocked and we had everything we needed. The hosts even checked the kitchen ahead of time to let me know what we would need to bring to make 140 lemon bars. Everything was great!!!

Wonderful property and hosts
Patrick and Joy are great hosts. They were kind, responsive and informative. They had great suggestions for food and hiking.
The property is walking distance to downtown and very close to many great hiking options. The downstairs of the home is incredibly spacious and perfect for our 6 person group.
We would highly recommend the property and hosts.
