Steep driveway a bit of problem. We parked at the bottom of the hill. We bought firewood but it would be a nice feature to include. The kitchen is large and well stocked for cooking but needs organized to find things. More tourist information would be helpful. We bought a map and put in the binder. Instructions for the TVs would be helpfu for those unfamiliar with the technology. Comfortable beds and efficient heater. Beautiful surroundings! Luckily no bear sightings but important not to leave ANY food items in cars!

We had a great stay! The house was beautiful. It felt very comfy being nestled in the trees. The mountain provided beautiful views and we were close to some amazing hiking opportunities.

This was such a beautiful stay, the owners answered all my questions quickly and with great detail. It’s evident the owners love the property as it’s well maintained. I am looking forward to staying there again next year.

All the amenities that came with the cabin rental were awesome. The only bad thing i have to say is the location of the beach and the pool were hard to find. I ended up having to call and find out where the were. The cabin was clean, lots of things to do at the cabin, and the rooms were spacious

Loved the house and the size. It fit our group perfectly. The only difficult area for us was the extremely steep driveway, but it was summer so no worries about snow.
We were celebrating a 21st birthday for our daughter and she loved it!!

We got unlucky with weather during our stay. It rained on 5 of the 7 days we were there, which limited our time on the deck and using the included community pool. Fortunately, the weather did not affect our ability to visit many of Nelson County's wineries, cideries and breweries.
The house was a perfect size for our group of 2 couples and a 12 year old. There would have been room for several more kids. The 12 year old appreciated the video game consoles and played Zelda all week.
I've been to rental properties in Wintergreen several times now. This house is the best value I've seen and has everything you would need. The driveway is steep but was manageable. I parked at the top and didn't have any trouble with traction. The other family's pickup truck needed to engage 4 wheel drive a time or two on wet days. I do wonder about winter snow days, but we visited in June. The driveway wouldn't impact my decision to stay here even in winter.

Our family met at the cabin for a long weekend together. It was perfect! Just as described in the listing. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

We were two couples looking for a comfortable base for a 4-day exploration in the Shenandoah Valley. This property completely met our needs and expectations. The bedrooms were plenty large enough and beds comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked and there was a generous collection of spices and condiments. The entertainment center was first class and the addition of a Netflix account was a plus. We would certainly stay here again if the opportunity arises. Good choice!

Wonderful property as others have discovered. The resort area is beautiful as well. Thank you for sharing the Chalet.

We loved our long weekend stay! It is a little trek up the mountain if you are coming in the off season or if you are looking for activities that aren't in Wintergreen, but the views are amazing and the house itself is gorgeous!

Overall this was a great, cozy chalet for my family of seven (grandparents included!). While the driveway is steep, we were well aware of this based on the listing description and pictures. We loved the views and the chalet was well stocked with everything we needed. Would stay here again!

The home was very clean and offered all of the basic necessities. The view was phenomenal. We enjoyed our time very much and would return in a heart beat. The drive was no joke, and took about two days to get comfortable with it. The beds were extremely comfortable. Highly Recommend this Home. Large Kitchen and Living Room.
Trails and Breweries in short easy commute

This was our first time staying in this gorgeous home. So happy we brought our 4wd due to the residual ice and steep drive. The views are gorgeous and this home has everything you need. It was perfect for our family of 5. We took advantage of the weather early in the week and it made for perfect skiing. We went tubing and had a blast. Thank you.

We went with family & friends for a long weekend away. The house was great for a multi-family stay, with lots of space in the living room & kitchen for us to gather. The house is set in the mountains, so as the listing says, be prepared for a steep driveway! Located near lots of great hiking paths and overlooks. If you're looking for a quiet getaway, this is it!

We had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful home for a long weekend over Labor Day. There were 5 adults and 1 child (9 yr old) and there was plenty of room for us all. The house is STUNNING with it's lovely, palatial windows and forest view. I felt like we were in a beautiful tree house on top of a mountain. The beds are extremely comfortable with really nice linens, and there are 2 fireplaces - a gas fire pit on the deck and a wood burning fire inside. The kitchen has been recently remodeled and had everything we needed to nest and cook at the home without going out, including a nice coffee maker and gas burning grill on the deck. And the location is fantastic as well. Even though we weren't there during ski season, there were multiple trails within walking distance from the house or a short drive that we did and very much enjoyed. I highly recommend the Upper Shamokin Falls for those looking for a few rock scrambles, and the Shamokin Nature Trail if you are looking for a shorter, beautiful hike.
We had one minor issue with the property (nothing of the house or home owners fault) that we had to contact the property owner about and he responded immediately, walking us through resolving it, and was fantastic to work with.
Thanks for allowing us to use your home and for such a wonderful experience!

We spent 4 nights at Shamokin Chalet during a very snowy holiday weekend. Proximity to ski resort was about a 5 min drive. Layout was good for a small family, beds were reasonably comfortable. Access to the house was our primary challenge in the conditions. We had to park at the bottom of a steep driveway and carry belongings in and out via many show-covered stairs. This would be much too treacherous for anyone with mobility issues. Host was very responsive to our few inquiries.

Best experience brining in the New Year
We came with family and friends to enjoy a ski trip for the New Year, but a week before we arrived, we found out the slopes were closed due to warm weather. We decided to make the best of it and came anyway to get away for New Year’s Eve.
It turned out to be the best weekend! We were able to stay one more day when the snow decided to make an appearance on our last day!
We truly enjoyed the home to relax in, the fireplace was warm and comforting and the entertainment space was perfect for quality time with family & friends!
I highly recommend this rental in Wintergreen! Thank you for the great experience!
Kindest Regards,
