Nice property! Charming, well-appointed house. We had 6 adults and there was plenty of room. Great location with an easy walk to Main Street. We enjoyed the fire pit.

The house was exactly what we needed. We go away every year and this house was big enought for all of us. Lived the comfortable beds and living room. Will hopefully be back.

This house is a larger house that would be absolutely perfect for a thanksgiving dinner. There is a huge dining room table that could seat probably 16 comfortably. We really appreciated the comfortable bedrooms and beds with plenty of extra pillows and blankets. As a small family we loved being able to spread out and chill after hiking at Shenandoah, which is minutes away.

The house was a beautiful, old farmhouse house. There were notes all around, giving clear guidance on where things were located. It was very clean and beautifully decorated. My favorite part was the large dining room table that allowed everyone to sit down and eat together. I would definitely stay there again.

We loved this house and it was perfect location and rooms for what we needed! The dining room table and two leather sofas were perfect for our family. We would highly recommend if you want to stay in Front Royal!

This was the best property we have stayed among at least 5 others in the recent past. The house was clean, well equipped, and everything worked as it should. Plenty of room for our 6 people family, close to downtown Front Royal, and close to Christendom College (we dropped off our daughter to college there over the weekend). Will definite choose this place again.

Front Royal is a great place to stay. This home is beautiful with everything we could possibly need! Our hosts were easy to reach and very helpful. The bedrooms are big and comfortable and the dining room and living room are great for big families. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely book here again!

Our stay at Joy's and Patrick's place was fantastic. The house is very clean, spacious, comfortable, and well equipped with everything you need for your stay even with a large family as ours (4 adults, 5 children). Joy and Patrick are wonderful hosts and very helpful and did everything to make us feel welcome. We definitely recommend the place if you are planning a trip to Front Royal, VA.

Six lady golfers stayed at Big Sunny and traveled to Gainesville to attend the Solheim Cup. We golfed at Shenandoah Valley Golf Course. We enjoyed the house very much. It had everything we needed. It was well supplied with all the extras! Nice to be in walking distance to restaurants and shops.

The property was the perfect location for our family get together. We were able to spend a day Monticello as well as multiple trips into Shenandoah National park. Both were easy to access with the Park being only a few minutes from the house. It was also a short walk into town for dinner or ice cream. Would stay there again.

This was a girls’ trip for a homesteaders conference. We enjoyed the spacious living spaces; the pictures just don’t give them justice. We had meals around the large dining table, then moved into the large living room for further conversation and fellowship.
The bedrooms were great also.
The neighborhood hosts several restaurants and coffee shops.
Just a great experience!

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. Everyone commented on how beautiful the house was. The rooms were spacious and the common areas made great gathering spaces for our visit. The house was spectacularly clean and the owners thought of every convenience. I felt as much at home there as in my own home!

A wonderful house with outstanding hosts! I cannot say enough good things about it. Convenient location, flexible accommodation, well equipped kitchen and lots of extra touches. We were 3 adults, a 10 year old, and an 8 year old. We enjoyed watching the Olympics, swimming in the Front Royal pool, walking by the river, and visiting the Handley Library in Winchester. We are relocating to this area from East Texas and found this visit very helpful.

Clean house with lots of space! Well stocked with all the necessities and little added extras that made for a wonderful stay for girls weekend! There were 4 of us and we had more house than we needed but loved it because we all had our own bedroom. Owners are very responsive. We had no issues and will definitely be back! Walking distance to town with shopping, restaurants, and wineries.short drive to hiking trails and more wineries!

Patrick and Joy are great hosts. They were kind, responsive and informative. They had great suggestions for food and hiking.
The property is walking distance to downtown and very close to many great hiking options. The downstairs of the home is incredibly spacious and perfect for our 6 person group.
We would highly recommend the property and hosts.
