7 adults and 7 kids 11 and under. We had plenty of room and the amenities were great. The game room was a huge hit. We used the fire pit twice. Perfect for S’Mores and sitting around while kids chased fire flies. Just a wonderful time making memories.

Our family had a wonderful time staying at the pond house. The game room was a huge hit with the kids and adults alike. The home is huge with plenty of beds for everyone. We didn’t use much of the kitchens (there are two) but appliances seemed nice and provided linens were comfortable in the many bedrooms. Also every bed was provided with multiple towels and washcloths. I would highly recommend the location to any medium to large size groups, especially those with children.

Relaxation at its finest! I wanted to unplug and this was the perfect spot! House was fantastic and close to the things we wanted to get out and do during the trip but far enough away to feel private and secluded! Communication was amazing from our host and we couldn’t thank you enough for a great family get away! The boathouse on the pond and fishing was a favorite activity!

My partner and I stayed here along with a big group of friends for our annual Fourth of July trip. The place was everything we could have asked for! Beautiful, private location. Big house with enough beds for everyone. Tons of games (inside and out). Our favorite spot was down at the pavilion, where we spent our time swimming and relaxing. If you’re swimming, watch out for the fishies! On top of that, Eugene was EXTREMELY responsive and friendly throughout the trip. He responded within minutes every time we reached out and always had a helpful answer. One of the best hosts I have personally experienced. 10/10 would recommend for anyone with a large group looking to relax and have some fun.

We had an amazing time at this property! It was the perfect getaway for our family and friends. So secluded and peaceful, just what we were looking for. Eugene was a fantastic host and responded quickly to any questions we had. The kids were completely entertained in the game room for hours, which gave the adults time to relax and unwind. The large master suite was beautiful and super comfortable as well as all the other rooms. We spent our evenings around the large fire pit and soaking in the relaxing hot tub. We were definitely sad to leave, but we’re already looking forward to our next stay!

This house has it all privacy, nature, and so many amenities! The kids were obsessed with the game room and we loved relaxing in the hot tub after long days outside. The property is huge and gorgeous, with lush trees, a calm pond, and a big backyard for corn hole tournaments. Our favorite spot was definitely the lakeside pavilion, it felt like we had our own private park. We grilled for dinner, watched the sunset from the upper deck, and made s’mores in the cozy firepit area that had plenty of seating for us all. Beds and linens were plush and comfortable and the kitchen was fully equipped. Truly one of the best places we’ve ever stayed at!

Pondside Farmhouse is an absolute gem! The property is stunning, tucked away in the trees with a spring-fed pond that’s perfect for kayaking and swimming. The large pavilion on the water was our go-to spot for relaxing with a book and a coffee. The house had plenty of room for us. We loved gathering in the open kitchen and dining space, and the fireplace made it feel cozy and homey. The beds were super comfortable and the bedrooms spacious and quiet. We spent hours in the game room playing arcade games and darts, and then ventured into the hot tub at night. We also spent time sitting at the fire pit..the string lights made it feel like a special event. So much fun!

Wow! This place is so serene and beautiful! As we drove up, we noticed the pond and surrounding woods and knew this was going to be a special place! The covered dock was perfect for morning coffee and fishing in the afternoons. We spent evenings around the huge firepit under string lights, it felt like a luxury campground! The hot tub under the twinkle lights was magical. The inside of the home was spotless and incredibly spacious. The kids (and adults!!) loved the game room with vintage arcade games and darts. We also went to the nearby lavender farm and winery. This house is less than 20 minutes drive from the Shenandoah National Park entrance at Swift Run. We drove on the skyline drive through the park and had lunch in the mountains at Big Meadows. Next time, we plan to go hiking! We made amazing memories at the Pondside Farmhouse. We'll be returning and staying longer next time!
