Kinstay Top-Rated Family Cabin: 2 Living Areas, Views & Game Room + EV Charger

KINSTAY MASSANUTTEN: THE SPACE

DESIGNED BY TRAVELERS, FOR FAMILIES
We travel often with our own young kids, so we built our "dream stay" with all the details usually missing from rentals. From a fully-stocked kitchen to separate levels for kids and adults, we’ve handled the "little things" so you can just show up and relax!

THE LAYOUT AND VIEWS
Perched on the mountainside and backing up to the George Washington National Forest, you’ll wake up to sunrises over the peaks.

UPPER LEVEL: Open living area with a cozy fireplace and our signature "hyggekrog" (reading nook). Includes the Master King Suite, a Queen bedroom, and a Twin room.

LOWER LEVEL: The "Fun Zone"! A second living room with a game area featuring a 9-foot shuffleboard and two arcade machines. Includes a Queen bedroom and a playroom with a Double sofa bed.

KID-FRIENDLY AND STRESS-FREE
Stop over-packing! We provide the essentials so you don’t have to:
High chair and Pack n Play
Step stools and kid dishes/cups
Playroom stocked with toys, books, and games
Full-size washer/dryer for your convenience

CHEF’S KITCHEN AND COFFEE
Cook for the whole crew with ease!
Large dining table seats 10.
STARTER KIT: We do our best to stock cookware, oils, and a variety of spices.
COFFEE BAR: Cuisinart drip, K-Cup machine, French Press, and an electric grinder for your own beans.

WORK AND PLAY
FAST WIFI: Ultra-fast Eero Mesh (171+ Mbps)—perfect for remote work on the deck!
STREAMING: 65-inch 4K Smart TVs in both living areas with streaming services included.
OUTDOORS: Two spacious decks with Adirondack chairs to soak in the mountain air.

PARKING AND EV CHARGING
LEVEL 2 EV CHARGER INCLUDED!
The home is on a hill with a steep, narrow driveway—it’s the secret to our incredible views! You can drive right to the front door for easy unloading. (4WD/AWD highly recommended in winter).

RESORT AMENITIES
WATERPARK: The Massanutten Waterpark is undergoing a massive renovation in 2026 to add new slides and family fun!
ADVENTURE CENTER: Just a 3-minute drive for skiing, tubing, and mini-golf.
POOLS: There are several indoor and outdoor pools in the resort area available for your use.

Policies/House Rules:
-Early check-ins and late check-outs may be available and do incur a small fee.
-There are two cameras on the property exterior for your safety – one monitoring the driveway/deck stairs and another in the back yard to watch for wildlife. No cameras are present inside the home.

Parking rules violators may be subject to having their vehicles towed. If you cannot park all your vehicles on this property or on the adjoining shoulder of the road, overflow parking is available at: the MPOA Owners' Swimming Pool parking lot at 4007 Peak Drive. NOTE: Buses, campers and RVs may not be parked at houses or along neighborhood roads. With prior MPOA approval they may be parked in the overflow lot during your stay.

PETS
Pets are not allowed to run at large. They must be leashed at all times when off this property. Pet owners are required to clean up after their pets.

Nice long weekend stay

This house worked perfect for a long weekend to spend on the slopes. Although one video machine wasn't working our youngest in the party enjoyed the street fighter video game and the shuffle board table was a hit for our family in the evenings. Beds were comfortable and overall well stocked kitchen. Only thing we felt we missed was steak knives for our group.

Very nice home! The steep driveway was a downside for us. Fortunately, there wasn’t snow and there is parking on the street. We would have liked having tvs in the bedrooms. The extra downstairs living room with tv and playroom was great space for the kids.

Great stay as Massanutten!

We had a great stay at KinStay! From the seamless check-in and checkout process to Matt's prompt and attentive communication, every aspect of our experience was stress-free. The property itself was well-equipped to cater to all our needs, making it a perfect fit for our family. The kid-friendly features and playroom were an added bonus. We highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a hassle-free and enjoyable stay.

Comfortable, clean and close to slopes

Had plenty of space for our family and lots of amenities. The dishwasher and laundry were helpful for a large family. The younger kids enjoyed having the playroom as they couldn’t go skiing with the older kids. The only real drawback for us was the driveway and parking pad. We brought a truck and a suburban and found the driveway tricky to maneuver both vehicles in for parking. It can be done. But it wasn’t ideal for me. If you have cars or small SUVS, probably won’t have any issue parking. Check-in and check-out were super easy. And the property was quiet, clean and convenient.

Lovely and Comfortable stay

Home is comfortable and has most everything you could think of to feel like home. We did a little shopping to have food in the house, but didnt have to buy things like salt, seasonings, oil or even syrup. Our cars were packed to the gills so the toy room was a godsend for our toddler granddaughter and grandma got to remember her teen years playing centipede on the arcade style video game machine! Host was super responsive when we couldn't figure out the fireplace and gave us a call to walk us through it. The Christmas tree was a great touch!

Perfect Getaway Home in Massanutten

Our stay at Matt’s home in Massanutten was nothing short of wonderful. The home was exactly how it was described. It was extremely clean and well cared for. It had all the amenities needed and more. One thing my family all agreed on was how comfortable each and every bed was. The area where the home is located is beautiful and easily accessible to so many attractions. Matt was a wonderful host. He replied quickly to any questions I may have had and also checked in to see if we settled in ok. I highly recommend this home to anyone visiting the area. You will not be disappointed.
