Marley’s Cabin

Beautiful home and views. Host’s are very organized, take pride in their property, and are prompt with all communications. They take a genuine interest to ensure your satisfaction, but are not intrusive. Although our stay was on the pricier side of what I wanted to spend, I didn’t regret splurging as my entire family was thoroughly satisfied with what this home offered.

Amazing House

This home has the wow factor. As you walk through there are views of the mountains to the east everywhere. There was even a little Happy Birthday tiara left out for my daughter. It's about a 7 minute drive to the ski area, restaurants and tubing. Other impressive items were the quality of the bedding, cool gaming chairs, numerous gathering areas, the organization of the kitchen and the privacy of the third floor master suite. The highlight of that suite should be the jetted tub, except that gets outshined by the steam shower. There is one issue the owners need to address and that is that the hot water heater is inadequate for a three bathroom. It sleeps 8 but you've got about 20 minutes of total shower time before you are out of hot water. I was there with 6 teenage girls so you can imagine. Also that beautiful two person jetted tub will only get about 2 inches of water before the hot water is gone. I'm hoping the owners will get a tankless or more robust unit, because everything else with this house is aces!

Our Second Home

The stay at Marley’s Cabin is never anything short of perfect. Beautiful home in a gorgeous setting. Whether we’re out and about hiking, visiting vineyards and breweries or just relaxing with a cup of coffee while sitting in the rocking chair on the porch overlooking an incredible Mountain View…it’s everything we could ever ask for and it’s why we keep coming back every year. It’s a non-negotiable on our calendar now. John and Shannon are tremendous to work with and communicate. They’ll give you space if you want it, but prepared to help and answer any questions at any time with you. They’re the best!

A slice of heaven!!

Second visit to Marley’s Cabin and will happily keep coming back! It’s the perfect getaway with friends or family, but don’t be fooled by the word cabin. It is spacious, yet cozy with a big stone fireplace to gather around and play games, soak in a hot tub, share meals around the dining room table, enjoy the game room, and much more. The main deck is a great place to have coffee in the morning and watch the most amazing sunrise over the valley or have drinks in the evening and see a breathtaking sunset over the mountains or stargaze. John and Shannon are fantastic hosts. They are very responsive and provided great recommendations, including local transportation for our wine tours, and left a local guide book for us to review. The cabin is very clean, organized, and well-maintained. It feels like home. Can’t wait to go back!! Thank you for a wonderful time!!!

Family Nature Stay at marley’s Cabin

We had a family get away with my son and wife his two small children and it was everything we hoped for. The house was spacious, well appointed with everything we needed, the view was breathtaking! There were fabulous hiking trails nearby leading to Upper Shamokin Falls that were amazing and delighted young and old and were full of natural wonders. And a fabulous hot tub and view to soak tired muscles afterwards! We can’t wait to come back!

Views are spectacular. The "cabin" is quite elegant and very comfortable for multiple couples. Kitchen is well organized, and everything worked wonderfully. We had great conversations, lots of laughs and relaxed with quite evenings reading and listening to the crackling fire in the fireplace. Need to get away and relax? This is the place.

Marley’s Cabin: Majestic Views & Great Getaway

We loved our stay at Marley’s Cabin. The views from the master bedroom bathroom and the main floor of the house are just magical. The living room with big stone fireplace was the perfect spot for family board games, fun gatherings and watching Thanksgiving games on the cozy big leather couch in front of a huge TV. The kitchen was well stocked with all utensils, pots and pans needed for a Thanksgiving feast at their big dining room table framed by gorgeous sunsets over the blue ridge mountains. The jacuzzi was also a big hit after hiking and braving the chilly weather. We’d love to come back in the Spring to enjoy sitting outside on the gorgeous decks soaking in the incredible views. We will be back! Thank you Shannon for sharing your slice of heaven with us!

Best VRBO experience ever. What a fabulous house with all the trimmings.

The owners responded to all our wishes and requests promptly. That location can be iffy for cell service, but it was all over the Wintergreen Resort. You can text message easy. We would have stayed longer if we had the time. The weather was great. The Restaurant at the golf course was really nice for lunch and just a short walk from the house. There was only 3 of us and the hot tub was perfect at the end of the day. Want to go back in October and see the Fall foliage some time. We have never enjoyed anything from VRBO like this before. Memories to last a lifetime.
