The house is in a great location and setup perfect for a large family. Modern kitchen and good sized living and dining room. We enjoyed our stay.
This home has everything a family or group of friends would need to enjoy their time in Front Royal. Having stayed in many short-term rental properties in the area for quite a few years, this one stands out as the best in terms of quality of the home and appointments, location, and cost. Joy and Patrick even went to the extent of decorating the home for Christmas (including a full-height tree) for our stay over the holidays. I hope to have the opportunity to stay here again.
It is a beautiful place. You feel right at home the moment you enter. The rooms are spacious and very clean. It is just blocks away from the historic city of Front Royal and we walked twice up to wander through the streets and shops. It was perfect for us.
The entire family loved the layout of the house. It felt so comfortable and inviting. I especially loved the little “reading room” off to the side of the dining room. My wife loved the decor.
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.
Loved the house, plenty of room for the family. Loved having family dinners at the giant dining room table. Had out of state family visiting VA who wanted to see DC and the Shenandoah Valley so the location worked out great. I would definitely rent the house again.
The property was exactly as advertised but better. Patrick and Joy thought of everything! We really enjoyed the fire pit and the huge table that fit all of us. Parking was ample as our group had five cars (sometimes six or seven). VERY comfortable beds and we even managed to juggle seven people in two baths. All in all, the best B&B I’ve ever stayed in.
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!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Sunny House. The attention to detail was superb! We stay in Front Royal a few times a year and so far this was our favorite large family stay.
We enjoyed our stay at the big sunny family house. There was plenty of room for all of us! The parking in the back of the house was especially nice so we didn’t have to back out onto the busy road in the front driveway.
The house was beautiful, clean and welcoming! Just a ten minute walk to town. Our hosts were very accommodating and responded promptly. We look forward to returning!
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!
