Re: Massanutten - June - Get Together

Marty - My guys will be in Massanutten the middle of June. I don't need to tell you they are an excited bunch - we haven't been since the waterpark has been completed. We will be in Mountainside Villas.

Re: Massanutten - June - Get Together

Marti, Golden Corral is a chain buffett that is just mediocre. There's got to be a better place. It's been years since I've been to Massofnuttin, altho now it sounds like a mass of somethin. The best food I ate while I was there was at an Amish Farmers Market. They had a restaurant in the market. I don't know if it's still there but I bet it is. Also I still remember the food at Rowe's Restaurant at Staunton. It was fabulous!! shaggy

Re: Massanutten - June - Get Together

I had seen what the website has posted . .

I was trying to find out if they were still handing out a flyer that had weekday rates as listed in the cut/paste from a previous post. One of my older daughters was there the week before memorial day and she said it was still $20 for the day.

The 6 day pass for 6 of us would probably be overkill. At the most we would spend 1- 2 day there.

Emily



From a previous post . . .

Regular Waterpark rates...(according to the full color brochure they handed us)...
Gen Admission.......................$40
Gen Admission (child under 42")......$20

Owner/Exch---Twilight--child.....$13

Activity Card holders.............$20
Activity Card----child............$10
Activity Twilight...............$16
Activity Twilight-child..............$8

Age 2 and under..........FREE at all times

HOWEVER.....They also gave us a copied off flyer with these rates(which they honored when we went):

As of 2/1/06...
Weekend/Holiday Rates...
General Admission Adult All day (10am-10pm).....$40.........Twilight (5pm-10pm)......$32

Massanutten

Note: You have to carry towels from home
or use the bath towels from the unit
Some units do not have washers and dryers

So, The big issue within the resort is:
towels hanging off the patios/decks!

Re: Massanutten - June - Get Together

Thanks Marty - We usually bring large beach towels with us when we go to any resort, they take up an entire packing bag.

As far as the balcony, I'm guessing this is new for Massanutten since the opening of the waterpark - we haven't seen this on our previous two trips.

Re: Massanutten - June - Get Together

Marty,

Thanks for all your updates. Can you clear up one thing for me (we'll be there in mid-August for the first time). For the waterpark, you mentioned no outside food/drink is allowed. Do you absolutely have to buy their food when you are hungry? Is there anyway to pack a picnic lunch or snacks, leave the waterpark to eat, then return without having to pay again? Can you bring your own bottled water?

Thanks,
Sandra

Re: Massanutten - June - Get Together

We have never been to this area. Which part of the resort is newest, and which part is best for a family with two sons? I am thinking of trying for an exchange for next summer. Is there much to do in the area, and at the resort? Thank you for all info. Sue

What unit are you in? We're in 120L. It will be my husband and I plus my 14 yr old daughter, who will probably be bringing a friend. We'll have to touch base at some point. We will pretty much be hanging around the resort, enjoying their activities. With the stresses of moving (and my recent surgery) we need the break.

Waterpark admission

We went to the Waterpark when we stayed at the Summit in late March.

At that time, when you bought the one day admission they put a bracelet on you so you could leave and re-enter for the rest of the day as long as you kept it on. Back in March they were also handing out one towel per person when you entered (like a large white bath towel). They've apparently done away with the towels since then, so I suppose it's possible they could have changed the admission policy too.

You can give them a call if you want to be sure; the phone # for the Waterpark is 540-437-3340.

Hope you have a great trip!

Ted
