About this property

Magnificent Log Home,60 Private Acres--Stunning Mountain Views SUN DANCER

Elegant, country escape overlooking the Shenandoah Valley in the Blue Ridge Mountains of VA. Sun Dancer is just off Route 231, one of America's ten most outstanding scenic byways (Great for experienced bikers). Our 60 private acres backs up to the Shenandoah National Park & Old Rag Mt., which offers many scenic hiking trails and activities.

View the wildlife or the spectacular star-studded sky. Watch the moon rise or take a drive on Skyline Drive. We have a stocked pond for catch & release & there's trout fishing at Graves Mt. Lodge right down the road. Pop some popcorn in our theater sized electric popper & watch your favorite movie on our 65" HDTV screen.

The main level is simply glorious with a view that is breathtaking. We have a large stone fireplace built from rocks on our land, and a 16 person dining room. The kitchen is open to the space and ready for a family gathering. We also have a 52 inch TV, as well as newly acquired Internet and Wi-Fi capabilities. Around the back of the kitchen is a beautiful and serene screened in porch with an outdoor chimenea for s'mores or grilling! Take along your choice drink from the downstairs bar & play a game of shuffleboard on our 9' table, some checkers/chess, or a serious game of foosball or cornhole. Pack a picnic and explore our 60 acre land!

Visit the many wineries, Luray caverns, historic Monticello & Montpelier, Charlottesville, civil war sites, golf, horseback ride, antique shops, art galleries. Massanutten provides all season activities - skiing, go carts, golf, bowling, and an indoor water park. Try fishing in our catch & release pond - bring a picnic and enjoy the view.

A massage therapist will come to the lodge for your spa needs. There are many organic farms and farmer's markets nearby. Pasture fed beef can be found at Rider's Backfield farm just around the corner. There are many scheduled events, festivals, & activities throughout the year. There are world class (Inn of Little Washington) to down home restaurants within 1-25 miles.

Absolutely wonderful weekend
Had a wonderful time. The house is very eclectic, rustic, and visually applealing. Love the set up and all the bathrooms. There was evidence of it not being as clean as it could have been, and the stove top did not work well. But, overall, it was a great weekend and beautiful place to stay in the mountains.

50th Wedding Anniversary
We celebrated our 50th weddng anniversary with our family. Ages from 4 to 92. We enjoyed the view (would be better without the 2 trees!), the fishing, the woods. We found a swimming hold in the Shenandoah Nat'l Park not far from the house and we all enjoyed it.

beautiful spacious private house
the house design and setting was perfect for our family group of 13. age range 8 to 80 celebrating 2 family birthdays. there were enough bedrooms and bathrooms for all of us.Plenty of hot water. The firepit was great. the view was outstanding as was the location. So suggestions for me to give it 5 stars. 1) shampoo and conditioner in bathrooms 2) toilet paper for all bathrooms 3) paper towels in kitchen. 4) kitchen towels 5) put pots with matching lids in same cabinets 6)the decks needed cleaning possibly some new cushions. these are not big ticket items, but I think they make a big difference.

Gorgeous and unique property.
The property is very secluded yet not far off the main road. Open large kitchen/living/dining room with ample seating and space for 14 adults and two small children.. Kitchen is well appointed and we appreciated the huge island area. Bedrooms are large and we were able to accommodate 2 portacribs easily. I was confused about bathrooms as it is listed in one place as 4-1/2 (which is what it is ) but also as 5 and 6 bathrooms in other places within listing. Bathrooms are very large and easily shared but only 2 are accessible without entering a bedroom. One of those does not have a shower only a bathtub. Essentially if you have adults in the loft which sleeps 6 they would need to share one of 3 showers and the 2 adults in the bedroom next to the bathroom with only a tub would also need to share one of 3 bathrooms with showers. This was not a problem with our group of mostly 30 somethings but it could pose an issue for some. Having said all of that, we made it work and loved this stunning obviously well loved and cared for home.
