Visit Rock Ridge View: 1,200 private square feet includes a kitchen, office area, living room, and bathroom – but it’s unlikely you’ll spend much time indoors as the real show piece is the unobstructed views of the fabled Allegheny Mountains. The sky is uninterrupted by lights at night affording star gazing across nearly 20 miles of the Shenandoah Valley. The property sits on 17 acres with walking paths, trees, an orchard with seasonal berries and fruit trees, and a stone patio with chairs to watch the sun tuck into the hills of Western Virginia. We have a smokeless fire pit that can be prepared for you upon request to savor the stillness of sunset and watch for the abundant deer and seasonal birds that call our property home.
The space can accommodate up to 4 guests with 1 King bed and a trundle bed containing two single beds. Kids are always welcome, and we are dog-friendly with plenty of space to run. The unit can accommodate both short and long stays with a washer/dryer and ample parking. We live on the 2 upper floors, and are available to address any needs, and guests have their own private entrance on the lower floor.
House and Parking: When you arrive, you can park in the 2 designated spots in our driveway marked for guests and utilize the newly-installed natural stone walkway with 7 easy steps to the private lower level of the home. The unit has A/C and high-speed WiFi. The space sleeps up to 4 people, and can serve as a quiet getaway for individuals and couples as well. All bed linens and pillows will be provided for you. The bathroom is accessible from the hallway and the bedroom. We provide liquid bath soap, shampoo and conditioner as well as all bath linens. The living room boasts a new 55” smart TV with remote. Feel free to sign in to any of your accounts to watch what you want (NFL, NHL, HBO, MLB, iTunes, Hulu, etc) and remember to sign out when you leave.
Kitchen: The kitchen has a microwave, toaster and Keurig coffee maker for your use. There is a full-sized refrigerator, sink and dishwasher to accommodate longer stays. Though we think Harrisonburg has an exceptional range of dining options (feel free to ask for recommendations) there is a full set of dishes, glassware and utensils for staying in and cooking a cozy meal.
For Coffee & tea drinkers/lovers: There is a selection of K-cups, Sugar, Stevia and there is a pint of half & half in the fridge for you. We provide different kinds of tea bags as well if you prefer.
Outdoors: You can head out to the patio table and chairs in the morning to see the sun come up over the eastern hills. Close by to our home is the walkable community of Park View and you can drive a few miles into Harrisonburg to enjoy more than 15 city parks. To the East, we are 20 minutes to the entrance of Shenandoah National Park. Driving west, we are 10 minutes from the rolling foothills of West Virginia. If you prefer to stay in one place, you can take advantage of our acreage and explore. We live on a hill and our property has many of the large limestone rocks that give Harrisonburg it’s “Rocktown” nickname, so make sure you are able to negotiate some rocky terrain if you decide to take a stroll around our little slice of paradise. We may have sheep and goats on the property when you visit as our neighbor sometimes has them on our land to enjoy the grasses and wildflowers.
Unique Valley Experiences: We have built wonderful relationships with numerous farms and agritourism businesses and can connect you to numerous experiences within less than a mile of our property. Darron is a long-time mountain biker and knows all the good spots if riding downhill at high speeds over rocks and tree roots is more your style. Whatever your interest, we can help you find your adventure.
