Great location for Shenandoah, terrific view
My friends and I really enjoyed our getaway to Shenandoah and stay at Bear Mountain Lodge. The home was perfect for our needs. It was well stocked with utensils, and very comfortable (with lots of bear decor!). The home features stunning views of the surrounding hills and you can hear sounds of the stream below. The home has ample outdoor seating as well as indoor entertainment (games and tv). We recommend Rappahannock Cellars, which is just a short drive away, and of course Skyline Drive and Shenandoah hiking.

Mountain Retreat
The perfect mountain home for a relaxing getaway! The proximity to the Front Royal Entrance to the Shenandoah National Park and the town was a plus! We saw deer (with a baby), rabbits, and tons of beautiful birds on the property.The house is nicely updated with all the amenities one could want. They have thought of everything!I would highly recommend this mountain home for a relaxing and adventurous family getaway!

Friends Reunion Weekend
Wonderful property and excellent communication from the hosts, Asad and Erica.
We loved the baby deers, groundhogs, birds, beautiful views and shooting stars.
Additional helpful things to know ahead of the visit is that there is a bbq but there is no guarantee there will be propane as it is not supplied by the host. Also, there was minimal toilet paper so if we were to stay again, we would bring a 6 pack of TP. For towels we only were provided six for the entire visit, which was challenging since we used the hot tub. Asad shared that typically extra towels are left on the kitchen counter but was an oversight by the cleaning crew.
As you can see these issues did not lessen our rating and we enjoyed our weekend greatly!
