11 of us stayed in this house for a long weekend and it was perfect for our group. Lots of space, beds, huge hot tub, and nearby many hikes and wildlife. We were told there would be firewood and it was not delivered until our final day which was a bummer since we would have liekd to enjoy fires the other two nights, but overall it was a great rental.

This house is so pretty! And the pictures are accurate! It was very clean, and we loved our stay! The driveway way was a little much for us Midwest flat paved road kind of people, but we did just fine. So quiet and picturesque. We had a nice relaxing vacation here. I would absolutely recommend this house!

Great house with everything you could ask for. A bit of a trek up the hill, so make sure your car can handle it

Absolutely loved the house, very clean and spacious, everyone had their own private space. Loved the close proximity of skyline drive. The best part about this place was the amazing views. Would definitely come back to Hensley Hollow Lodge.

The whole family was able to come together but still feel like we were at home. The Lodge had everything we needed and more. The family wanted to turn our anniversary into an annual event "at the lodge".

We came with a family of 18! The house suited us beautifully! We had most of the kids upstairs in the loft with girls on one side and boys on the other. All of the bedrooms had very comfortable beds. 3 bedrooms had their own private bathrooms which was really nice. The property is secluded enough the kids could run around outside without disturbing anyone. We would gladly stay again!

This house and the property are beautiful! The house was very clean, the beds were comfy, and the house was spacious. It is in a great location, very close to an entrance of Shenandoah National Park. Although the property management was not flexible about check in time, they were very responsive and pleasurable in their communications, and check in/out was very simple. I highly recommend this property, you won’t be disappointed!

I was originally worried that the group of 14 would feel a bit crowded - not at all! My only suggestion is to stock the foosball table with balls. Other than that the space was perfect.

We loved staying at this beautiful lodge in a perfect location in Shenandoah National Park. The home was beautiful, clean and appointed with all the necessities we needed. It was pet friendly, and even though we were bringing 2 black labs ourselves, we were skeptical of the quality of the house for our high-brow bunch and it was PERFECT! Comfy beds. Quiet and remote - but close to park entrance, grocery and more. We hope to be back! TripForth was a wonderful host!!

A beautiful house in a beautiful setting. We were close to the entrance at Shenandoah National Park and did several day hikes. The fire pit was perfect for smores and the Elkton Brewery was a nice surprise. The wifi was slow, but we did have one working remotely during the week. All in all, a great trip.

We had a great time at Hensley Hollow Lodge. Great location with lots of things to do in the area. The Laray Caverns were especially nice for a day trip. The Shenandoah river rafting was peaceful, quiet, relaxing but not exciting. The house was large enough for all 16 of us. The beds were comfortable the bathrooms were nice and clean the kitchen was adequate and the hot tub was enjoyable. I recommend Hensley Hollow Lodge to anyone looking for a mountain retreat with lots of things to do.

Could not be any happier…Hensley Hollow Lodge was fantastic!!! We were so pleasantly surprised at how a home that can accommodate/slerp 22 was truly spacious enough to be together without being on top of each other and the views were spectacular! Beds (& pillows) were very comfortable. Easy drive (10-12 minutes) to a grocery. Kitchen was well stocked with anything you might need (2 coffee pots and even 2 crock pots!). Having a second full fridge on the lower level for beverages or food overflow (to cut down on the grocery runs) was a big plus! Hope to be able to return for another visit soon!
