Shop or simply stroll down our historic Main Street where you can appreciate our many murals by incredible local artists, experience unique shops, and nostalgic entertainment including a family arcade, movie theater and candy store.
Enjoy the local breweries and wineries or take a family trip to the local bowling alley, skating rink, or Dinosaur Land. For wine lovers Fox Meadow is gorgeous and just 5 miles from the house. Or, stay home to take in the sunset from the rocking chair up on the hill.
Dine at our wide variety of memorable restaurants or pick up locally sourced produce from The Giving Tree; paired with locally sourced protein from Two Fat Butchers and enjoy a meal at home in our fully stocked kitchen.
Escape the busy city life with a short drive (along Route 66 or Route 81) to a home that has picturesque views of George Washington National Forrest or the Shenandoah Mountains from nearly every window. Curl up and read a book in front of the fire or in the tub.
Relax on the back porch to take in the natural beauty the Shenandoah Mountains have to offer including birds, butterflies, and mammals such as deer, foxes, and raccoons. In the evening, the night sky, with nearly zero light pollution, is perfect for stargazing and smore making. (Hot Tub coming soon!)
