Great Family Space for Gathering
Very clean updated place for a family gathering. Kitchen was extra great with all you need to cook up some dinners. Plenty of beds and baths to give everyone some privacy. The wrap around porch was awesome with nice sturdy chairs for everyone It was also great for the kids to run and play and view the woods and deer. All over outstanding place!!!

Graduation Getaway
We had a wonderful long weekend stay for our son's graduation. The Bonnie Retreat was perfect for several adults to spread out and relax all weekend long. The main floor of the house had an open floor plan that was a great set up for a large informal get together/dinner. The hosts were so helpful, kind and responsive. We were so glad we went with The Bonnie Retreat vs a hotel. This was so much more comfortable for the whole family.

A wonderful family getaway
We had a wonderful vacation at The Bonnie retreat! Hosts were very responsive. The house was extremely clean. Loved the wrap around deck. The kids enjoyed playing ball in the cul-de-sac and exploring in the woods in the backyard. Plenty of space for our group which consisted of three families all with young children. We enjoyed some of the amenities on the resort property such as the water park, the playgrounds/parks, mini golf and the petting farm! Only downside was not having much of a yard, but that’s nothing I didn’t expect based on the listing. We still managed to put on an outdoor Easter egg hunt for the kids ☺️ Overall would recommend for groups with multiple families and children!

Perfect JMU Girls’ Weekend Reunion Spot
Seven long time friends met in a central location for relaxing, talking and laughing. We just spent quality time together! The kitchen was GREAT for our group, with plenty of space to keep our coffee cups and tea cups full, grab snacks, and cook meals. The footed tub, fancy shower, deck chairs and stunning view were great for individual decompressing. Thank you so much for your clear communication before the trip, and helpful directions onsite for during the trip. For example, the little labels on the cabinets and light switches were so useful for our home away from home comfort. Thanks!

Friends' Weekend
Group of friends wanted to get together so chose a location that was out-of-town for all, but easy to get to. We also wanted someplace we could bring food we'd prepared and brought with us, play cards and scrabble, listen to music and play our own instruments, and just generally relax and catch up. This was perfect.

We were able to celebrate my wife's baby shower and spend quality time with all of our friends in one space! 10/10 would stay here again!

Nice little cabin for a big group!
We had ten people and we stayed very comfortably in this cabin. It's tight, but the owners have really maximized the space well. We did wish there was something at the cabin that we could have done outdoors. A fire pit or a hot tub would have been wonderful. We did have a hiccup at check in. The smart key pad on the door was offline, so no codes would unlock the door. We called the owner and he was extremely kind and literally getting into his car to drive 3 hours to let us into the property (the night before Thanksgiving!) when we discovered an unlocked window we could climb through. A backup plan for unlocking the cabin would definitely be helpful! But we were very appreciative of the owner's generous response. Overall a great place to stay and I wouldn't hesitate to come back!

Bonnie Retreat a real gem
Bonnie Retreat is a wonderful, comfortable property. The home is beautifully decorated, and the fall decorations were even visible, and noticed. No complaints on beds being uncomfortable, and there were plenty of extra blankets and pillows if we needed them. The kitchen was well stocked. The outside space with plenty of seating for deer watching (up to 7-8 buck at one time), and star gazing. We really enjoyed our stay (Girl's Weekend ages late 50's-early 70's). We would rent this property again. Only recommendations to owners, a box of tissues on each floor would be nice (I did bring some thankfully), and instructions on the thermostats.

Great House for a Spring Stay
The house is very nicely appointed and clean. The multitude of decks and outdoor seating areas was particularly nice for a spring visit. A minor downside is that the upstairs is slightly cramped with two large couches and bar stools all competing for space in a small-ish living room. We had 7 adults and sometimes felt like we were playing red light/green light when moving to and from the kitchen for drinks or snacks. If we were to have more people, we might look elsewhere.

Family Weekend for JMU Graduation
We had 7 adults staying at the house for our daughter's graduation weekend from JMU. The house was plenty large enough that we did not feel at all crowded. The decks were great for everyone to gather and socialize. Our overall impression was that the house was very clean upon our arrival and was totally stocked with everything we needed. Plenty of dishes and flatware that we never even got close to running out. Multiple coffee makers as well as pots and pans. The bedrooms and bathrooms were styled nicely, clean and comfortable. The house is decorated very nicely and makes a great impression. Communications with the hosts was easy and the response time was always very quick. They were very accommodating. Instructions and house rules were very clear. I would not hesitate to stay here again or recommend to friends. Thank you very much we had a great stay!

Place for family memories
The house was very nice plenty of sleeping space. I didn’t realize it was three levels and we had to watch the little ones on all the stairs. The outside steps on the deck had some missing posts which again wasn’t safe for little ones. I do believe the owners are heading to the house soon for a little maintenance check they informed me off. BUT. All in all it was a beautiful home great for the family trip we had.

We had an easy check in that went exceptionally well. The house has a beautiful view of the mountains and the woods and is in a very quiet neighborhood. We did need to go to the store to purchase garbage bags, dish detergent, and dishwasher tabs. It was a very comfortable stay and we’d definitely go back again!
