The Neighborhood:
Quiet neighborhood. Very common to see deer and other wildlife walking through the woods surrounding the house.
Getting Around:
This chalet is one mile door to door to the ski lodge. Walkable, however there are no street lights if walking at night. Recommend 4WD if there has been recent snow. The roads are plowed by the resort, but due to some of the hilly terrain in the area, 4WD can be handy. Chalet is approximately 1.2miles to Lake Laura.
There is a grocery store (Food Lion) in Mt. Jackson by Interstate 81, which is about 15-20min from the resort. Once in Basye, there is local convenience store/gas station that has a small selection of a bit of everything (basic grocery items, drinks, frozen pizzas, toiletries, etc). The resort has a restaurant in the Lodge and there is another diner style restaurant, the Hot Plate, on the right when you pass the convenience store on your way towards Orkney Springs.
Other Things to Note:
Parking - Gravel circular driveway at the house. 3-4 cars can fit without a problem.

No smoking inside the house, no outdoor fires are allowed per resort policy and wooded nature of the resort, no parties. Must be 21+ to rent.

What can I say - we loved staying here! We’ve been looking at the area as a place for a potential home of our own and this was our chance to test drive the community. The house was perfect, we spent so much time on the porch - and it was so quiet! Even on a holiday weekend!The community has so much to offer as well -Lots of activities for everyone. I felt like it was adult summer camp with the lake, golfing, pickle ball, pool and more. We will definitely be back. Sara was an excellent host and the experience in her cabin was just top notch!

The 4 Seasons Chalet was cozy, impeccably clean, and equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. We enjoyed our time there and we also enjoyed several activities in the Shenandoah area.

Based on prior 5 star reviews, our family was excited to spend the weekend at this property. Upon arrival, the first thing I noticed was the coco and rubber mat at the entrance of the deck that was completely rotten and should have been removed/replaced a few years ago. Opened the door of the cottage, and an overwhelming odor was immediately noticed. Best I can describe it is that it smelled like someone cooked 5lbs of bacon in the kitchen half an hour before we arrived. Immediately started opening windows, and the sliding glass doors. The glass doors were extremely difficult to open - the tracks were filthy, and one screen door was propped up against the outside of the house. My husband was able to at least get the screen door back on its track, but it was unusable. Went upstairs to the master bedroom, and thankfully the beds weren't made, otherwise I wouldn't have seen how disgusting a few of the bed pillows were. They need to be tossed with the outdoor mat! Luckily, the downstairs queen bed had some decent pillows in pillow shams, so I swapped them out. Bath mats in master bath either weren't laundered in some time, or they too were past their life cycle. There was one towel in the upstairs bath, so I went downstairs to look for additional towels. There are 6 bath towels in the entire house, and zero hand towels. There was a metal spring imbedded in the 'bath mat' in the downstairs bathroom (it was a indoor entrance mat) and it had debris on it as well. The hosts must allow dogs, because the living room rug has a few urine stains on it. The sofa frame was broken, and the cushions were stained. Kitchen has everything needed for cooking. Made eggs Sunday morning, and found salt in the cabinet above the stove. Also found crumbs and sticky cooking oil on the shelf. It was so gross I pulled everything out of the cabinet and scrubbed it down because I was certain no one else was ever going to do it. Also swept up a plethora of fallen catkins off the deck. Oh -that cooked bacon smell - it never went away! Lighting matches didnt even help. Whoever is being paid to clean this place needs to be fired. The house is in a lovely location, and with minimal effort (along with replacing some items) it could really be a 5 star destination.
