Kim & Ken's (modern) Log Cabin, near center of activity in Resort.
Very clean and comfortable. Nicely furnished. Three stories, including a walk-out basement Rec-Room with a pool table and a foos-ball table. Great for a large family with small children and/or teenagers. Many games (e.g., Lincoln Logs) and DVDs (e.g., Harry Potter) available. Owners (Kim & Ken) are easy to deal with.

It was fine.
Positives: - It was basically clean and stocked with essentials. - Solid Wi-Fi, which was important for virtual JMU graduation ceremony! - It was a little tight for 11 people, but it was very cozy and "warm." Concerns / Disappointments: - Accidents happen, but when my daughter found a dirty pair of socks in her bed, she (understandably) freaked out. Of course, this meant she was sleeping on dirty sheets....including pillow case! - Staying there over Mother's Day weekend meant tons of pollen.....homeowner can't control that.....but the entire (huge) porch was totally unusable, since it hadn't been cleaned and was caked in pollen. - Lightbulbs burn out.....no big deal.....but two different lights/lamps were broken. That's ridiculous. - Having three bathrooms was OK, but only two showers (for 11 people) wasn't a good plan. Jacuzzi tub instead of third shower is silly. - Worn-out furniture in main living area. I don't want to feel the springs in an "overstuffed" chair! - Thousands of Cable TV channels on the box, but only about 10 were functional. We didn't make our trip to watch TV.....but, still....you would expect much more, given the location/setting/cost. - Especially given how "aggressive" the rental literature / agreement was ("don't do this, don't do that!!"), it was irritating that the directions to the dumpster were confusing and incorrect. - Had to bring our own propane for the grill......really?!? Overall, for the huge amount of money we spent for two nights, we weren't thrilled. It was FINE. We will definitely look for another property for our next visit.

Family Vacay
This visit was the second time we stayed in this house, and it was memorable in spite of Covid and a hurricane that blew through. We love the house, and it is big enough for all family members to spread out. It is clean and well stocked. We love the porch swing, the neighborhood, and the peace and quiet. We visited Luray Caverns, ate ice cream, hiked, swam in the outdoor part of the Indoor/Outdoor Water Park, BBQed and just had an overall great time. The owners were very responsive and gave us all the information we needed to enjoy our stay.

Perfect Cozy Cabin
It was just the right fit for our weekend get away. The location was beautiful and close enough to many things while still managing to feel somewhat secluded. We spent time at Shenandoah National Park which was super close. Our kids loved having daily wildlife visitors right out front.

Great house! Great location!
Bear's Landing is very comfortable! It was a great location for a Girl Scout troop getaway. It is convenient to the ski lodge and the go karts. The girls were able to do their GS activity and the dads played pool in the basement. There was plenty of room for sleeping, eating and hanging out.

Didn't want to leave
Super, well decorated, log cabin. Could spend the whole day rocking on the front porch, but had to eat and sleep sometime. Appliances and furnishing are very new and well appointed. Very close to resort amenities, however tucked away in a private community. Owner easy to communicate with. Can't wait to return.

Making Memories
The home was beautiful and even nicer than the pictures. We were a family of 7 adults and two small children who converged on Bear’s Landing from different places. The home was very well equipped and stocked. It was also easy to clean when we left. We had four cars that fit in the driveway, which was nice and flat. We made good use of the pool pass. We also hiked, ate ice cream, bungee jumped, played mini golf, did escape rooms, enjoyed the indoor/outdoor water park, and walked. At the rental we grilled, played pool, played games, read, and relaxed on the porch swing. There were several games already in the home. The bedrooms were spacious, the common areas were roomy, and the dining table was bigger than it looks in the picture as we were able to get everyone around it for dinner. Upstairs under the eves is a cute chikdren’s Nook, which our 4 year old discovered the first morning. The house was big enough that everyone had space; however, our favorite space was the front porch. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. The owners were quick to respond to any questions I had prior to arriving. We did grocery shopping at Food Lion and Martin’s. The General Store in the resort has some food items. We ate dinner at Hank’s one night. Outstanding. All in all it was a great place, and all family members loved it. We made many wonderful memories.

Great house! Awesome view of the slopes!
We had a wonderful stay! Lots of room to spread out-basement is awesome for kids (and adults!) Awesome communication with the owner-super friendly and responsive. Minor items we noticed-walls are thin-if you have light sleepers, this could be an issue. Parking is tight, but we were able to fit 4 cars as listed. Only outside lights were on front porch-back porch and driveway had no lights.That being said, we would definitely stay here again. We really enjoyed the house!
