1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,840
This may surprise some of you 
out there knowing that Amy and I

2
00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:07,520
are from the northeast, but we 
had never been skiing ever in 

3
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,200
our lives until a couple short 
weeks ago. 

4
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:13,760
But also, something that is new 
to me is did you guys know that 

5
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:16,640
Disney actually planned to do a 
ski resort at one point? 

6
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:19,880
I did not know I. 
Have no idea that was actually 

7
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:22,880
planned. 
Yeah, so like Disney's America 

8
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:25,360
Resort was supposed to have like
a ski component to it. 

9
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:30,920
It was in Haymarket, VA and it 
it had like winter themed rides 

10
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:32,479
and things like that. 
But there was definitely 

11
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:34,200
supposed to be like a ski 
component to it. 

12
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,200
And I feel like still to this 
day, there's Disney Vacation 

13
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,720
Club members that are like, 
yeah, I kind of wish that that 

14
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:41,560
ski resort I do. 
We hear that a lot. 

15
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:46,360
So today we're going to talk to 
you about a different ski resort

16
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:50,080
that's in that same general area
and talk about the Massanutton 

17
00:00:50,080 --> 00:01:00,200
Resort. 
Hey everybody, and welcome to 

18
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,720
this special episode of the DVC 
Show. 

19
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,040
I am your host, Paul Krieger, 
joined as always by my lovely 

20
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:09,840
wife, Amy Krieger. 
We also have special guests in 

21
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,920
the house with us Chief 
Marketing Officer for Key Holder

22
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:18,720
Vacations, Marissa Valaton and 
the Vice President of Marketing 

23
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,000
for Key Holder Vacations, Mandy 
Gibson. 

24
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,800
Hi, everybody. 
We kicked Jeff and Derek out 

25
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:28,080
this week, mainly because they 
have not been to the place that 

26
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,680
we are going to spend most of 
today talking about, which is 

27
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,080
the Massanutten Resort in 
Virginia. 

28
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,760
And I wish I, well, I guess I 
did record kind of the 

29
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,240
conversation we had right after 
that cold opening because we 

30
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:42,240
were all like, what where's 
Haymarket, VA and why was Disney

31
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,720
looking at like some place near 
there? 

32
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,600
But Mandy is actually from kind 
of the Shenandoah Valley area 

33
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,760
right now. 
She's in the Richmond area and 

34
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,560
it's pretty close to like where 
you're at, right? 

35
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,960
Yeah, it's not far. 
Are we talking about Haymarket? 

36
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:01,560
No, we're talking about 
Haymarket because that's what 

37
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,880
we're that, yeah. 
Yeah, Haymarket, yeah, I was 

38
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,880
just looking it up on my map 
here. 

39
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,759
It's it's about two hours and 45
minutes. 

40
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,240
Yeah. 
From where I'm at, so not, not 

41
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,000
too bad. 
I think it's a little bit close.

42
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,960
It's like north of kind of north
of Fredericksburg, West of 

43
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,080
Washington, DC. 
So it was weird, I did some 

44
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,000
research before we jumped into 
this into this show, but just 

45
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,680
because I found it wild that 
Disney had been planning some 

46
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:30,720
sort of concept in this general 
area. 

47
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,640
And surprisingly enough, also 
about 2 1/2 hours from Mandy. 

48
00:02:34,640 --> 00:02:38,480
Where she's located currently is
the Massanutton Resort, which is

49
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,480
what we are here to talk about 
this week. 

50
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:44,120
We were invited out by by 
Massanutten earlier in February 

51
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,560
to tour the resort, explore 
everything that there is to 

52
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:49,840
offer, especially in the winter 
season. 

53
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:55,000
There is so much to do as part 
of that amazing property. 

54
00:02:55,960 --> 00:03:00,400
Just kind of a brief overview of
Massanutten before we go any 

55
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,360
further. 
So this is located in the 

56
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:07,200
Shenandoah Valley in Virginia. 
So kind of that, I guess 

57
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:11,560
Easternish part of Virginia or 
more central part of Virginia. 

58
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,040
We're from West Virginia and I 
feel like we should know more. 

59
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,120
About But we're not from West 
Virginia. 

60
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,960
That's borders that would. 
Derail this. 

61
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,840
Pittsburgh, Ohio, West Virginia.
Yeah, yeah. 

62
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:29,760
But opened in the 1970s, opened 
in the 1970s in the Shenandoah 

63
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:34,040
Valley as a ski destination and 
then evolved into kind of what 

64
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,360
is they refer to as a four 
season resort. 

65
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,840
So things to do all throughout 
the year. 

66
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,680
We're going to primarily touch 
today on what we got to 

67
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:47,920
experience as part of exploring 
it during the winter season, but

68
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,560
also, you know, there's a lot to
do during summer, fall and 

69
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,880
beyond. 
And Mandy, being from that area,

70
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,320
kind of has some experience and 
can chime into that. 

71
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,280
But I know something that you 
wanted to like, touch on to like

72
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,320
kick us off was transportation, 
like how to get there. 

73
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,880
Yeah. 
So what was interesting is we 

74
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,640
actually met some some Co 
workers there as well and they 

75
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,880
ended up flying into different 
airports that we flew into. 

76
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,600
So there's actually a lot of 
options if you're not driving to

77
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,440
Massen and if you don't live 
close, but there are a lot of 

78
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:24,400
different airports that are 
within a drivable range. 

79
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,520
So for us, we flew into 
Richmond, right? 

80
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,760
Yeah, we flew into Richmond, but
we also had some people that 

81
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:36,720
flew into DC and I think there's
some other ones, do you remember

82
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:41,280
that are also within a close 
range that you can drive to 

83
00:04:41,280 --> 00:04:44,400
Massa Nuttin from. 
But from there, obviously, you 

84
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:48,200
know, because you do have to 
travel from an airport, we do 

85
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:52,600
recommend if you're flying in to
rent a vehicle, it is a very, 

86
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,320
very large resort. 
There's a lot of acreage and 

87
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,960
things to do. 
So it's easiest if you can drive

88
00:04:58,240 --> 00:04:59,920
around. 
Yep, totally. 

89
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:01,760
So definitely getting a rental 
car. 

90
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,920
Marissa, you actually flew into 
DC, correct? 

91
00:05:04,280 --> 00:05:07,440
I've flown into both. 
And so to Amy's point is a 

92
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,040
really good point of like the 
rental car car options with DC. 

93
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,840
It is such a huge airport and 
then you do have like some of 

94
00:05:13,840 --> 00:05:16,480
the traffic around it. 
And so you have to get a shuttle

95
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,840
to get the rental car. 
And so the nice thing about 

96
00:05:18,840 --> 00:05:22,280
this, like recent time that I 
went, I flew into Richmond and 

97
00:05:22,280 --> 00:05:24,280
Richmond is a much smaller 
airport. 

98
00:05:24,280 --> 00:05:27,520
And so because of that, you can 
walk right outside of baggage 

99
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:29,880
claim and you're right at the 
rental car area. 

100
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:34,080
So for that reason, I would say 
like if, if prices are the same 

101
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,560
and if you're able to find like 
kind of equal flights, then 

102
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,040
Richmond was the better option 
it. 

103
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,480
Was definitely probably the 
smallest airport I've 

104
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:42,960
experienced in a long, long 
time. 

105
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,440
It was so nice. 
I love small airports, they're 

106
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,520
just so easy to navigate. 
Yeah. 

107
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,240
And that's right by you, Mandy, 
correct? 

108
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,880
Yeah, it's a, it's like 45 
minutes from from where we are. 

109
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,720
I fly in and out of Richmond 
pretty much every time I fly. 

110
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,920
I think that's what you have to 
look at too, right? 

111
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,000
It's like some of the smaller 
airports that Amy have mentioned

112
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:03,920
are definitely closer to the 
resort. 

113
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,280
But more than likely you're 
going to have a layover where if

114
00:06:07,280 --> 00:06:11,680
you go through to Richmond or 
even DC, you're going to 

115
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,120
probably likely be able to find 
a direct flight where you're not

116
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,280
going to have a layover. 
So I think that's probably the 

117
00:06:16,280 --> 00:06:19,480
benefit. 
I know I enjoy not having to 

118
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:25,080
have a layover, but I do think 
that like Marissa's, right, in 

119
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:29,120
my experience too, flying in and
out of DC might be like a great 

120
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:32,440
option for a price or might be 
the only place that you could 

121
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,280
find maybe a direct flight into.
But you do have to just consider

122
00:06:35,280 --> 00:06:36,880
that there's going to be a 
probably a little bit of 

123
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,120
traffic, especially depending on
what time of day you fly in, 

124
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,480
etcetera. 
So you're probably watching this

125
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,560
and wondering why is the Disney 
Vacation Club related show 

126
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,160
talking about a ski resort in 
Virginia? 

127
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:52,120
And if you didn't catch our 
announcement late last year, Key

128
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,520
Holder Vacations is actually now
part of the resort's companies 

129
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,280
as of I think it was December of
last year. 

130
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,560
And so as part of that, 
Massanutten Resort actually is 

131
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:06,200
in our umbrella of brands. 
So we were super excited to 

132
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,520
actually go out explore the 
resort for the first time and 

133
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,240
get to see what this amazing 
property has to offer. 

134
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:16,320
And also kind of, you know, 
scratch that itch that those 

135
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,560
Disney people that have been 
asking for a ski resort or a ski

136
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:24,320
destination option. 
We now have that as part of our 

137
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:28,160
brand of businesses and DVC 
rental store is actually where 

138
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,240
we're kicking things off as part
of our swap program. 

139
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,680
So if you're familiar with our 
swaps, we do Disney Cruise Line,

140
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:39,120
Universal Adventures by Disney, 
all kinds of different swap 

141
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,200
opportunities where you can take
those vacation points and 

142
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,160
instead of using them at a 
Disney Vacation Club resort this

143
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,160
year, you can use them for a 
different stay. 

144
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,800
And we are now extending that 
into the Massanutten resort. 

145
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,480
So if you had the DVC 
rentalstore.com, click on the 

146
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:57,200
members section and then look 
for that swap option under the 

147
00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:00,640
tab there and learn even more 
about how you can swap your 

148
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:02,120
points at the Massanutten 
Resort. 

149
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,800
And we're going to be launching 
a bunch of other initiatives in 

150
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,400
collaboration with Massanutten 
over the course of this next 

151
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,440
year that we're super excited 
about as well. 

152
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,920
To kick things off, I just 
wanted to kind of go around the 

153
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,160
room and get first impressions 
of kind of your stay at 

154
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,480
Massanutten. 
And I'll, I'll start with you, 

155
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,360
Miss Amy, I'm. 
Going to blow my nose. 

156
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,400
OK, go blow your nose and we'll 
get Amy's thoughts. 

157
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,520
So one of the things that I 
noticed, you know, actually 

158
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,840
being a a lover of Disney is it 
is it being there. 

159
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,039
And I've said this on a lot of 
different shows, and it gives me

160
00:08:35,039 --> 00:08:39,600
the desire to travel and 
experience more of sort of the 

161
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,559
theming that Disney tries to 
bring into other, you know, 

162
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,720
parts of their parks. 
So thinking about like Blizzard 

163
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:49,200
Beach where it looks like, you 
know, an actual ski resort or 

164
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:53,600
even the American Pavilion right
where it looks a lot like the 

165
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:58,240
Colonial Williamsburg type area.
So the one thing that I love 

166
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,680
first of all, before I even get 
into the resort itself about 

167
00:09:01,680 --> 00:09:05,920
that area is that you are just 
so close to so many amenities. 

168
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:10,600
So one of the things that we did
when we flew in before we headed

169
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:15,240
to Massanutten was we spent the 
evening in, you know, Richmond 

170
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:19,000
and we went and explored 
Colonial Williamsburg, you know,

171
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,280
the next day, which is only, you
know, a few hour drive from 

172
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,200
Massanutten. 
But if you were flying into DC 

173
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,640
and you wanted to make it like 
a, you know, a multi part trip 

174
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:31,080
and you want to experience, you 
know, some, some of Washington, 

175
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,320
DC first, you know, I've been 
getting ads about the cherry 

176
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,600
blossoms this year. 
It's all in my Facebook and I 

177
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,440
really want to go. 
She asked the other day, can we 

178
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,360
put a cherry blossom tree in our
backyard and I said I don't 

179
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:43,640
think that's going to work in 
Florida. 

180
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,200
I. 
Think they're more for cold, but

181
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:49,040
but you're just so close to all 
these different, different 

182
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:52,840
things and you get to explore, 
you know, things that Disney 

183
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:54,720
kind of has inspired me to see 
more of. 

184
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,400
Also around Massanutten and 
we'll probably touch on this 

185
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,440
more. 
You're you're right in pretty 

186
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:02,160
much the Shenandoah National 
Park. 

187
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,960
We were there obviously in the 
winter, so the trees were bare. 

188
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,280
But I imagine, you know, in the 
summer and the spring, 

189
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,840
especially in the fall, I'd love
fall leaves that you would get 

190
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,640
to experience, you know, a lot 
of that beautiful colors. 

191
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,840
But at the actual resort, some 
of the things that I was really 

192
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,320
surprised of because I didn't 
really have I didn't know what 

193
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,280
to expect. 
I haven't, Gosh, I hadn't been 

194
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,880
to Virginia since I was, you 
know, pretty much a younger kid.

195
00:10:28,680 --> 00:10:34,680
And we, we stayed in, I guess it
was the Woodstone area. 

196
00:10:34,680 --> 00:10:37,280
And we'll talk a little bit more
about the accommodations and, 

197
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,240
and all the different options 
because there are a lot of 

198
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:43,680
different areas you can stay in.
And I was just really surprised 

199
00:10:43,680 --> 00:10:49,280
at how large the accommodations 
were, how, how nice they were. 

200
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,760
Even the rooms that are 
considered, you know, if you're 

201
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,120
coming from like a DVC 
background, even the rooms that 

202
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:59,480
are considered like a studio 
still had its own living room, 

203
00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:04,200
its own bedroom. 
It was a like a partial kitchen.

204
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,000
So you had basically everything 
you needed except for a stove. 

205
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,280
But there was like a cooking. 
Oh gosh, I don't even remember. 

206
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,440
It was like a electric skillet 
and things like that. 

207
00:11:12,680 --> 00:11:16,880
So a little bit larger than what
we're actually even used to with

208
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,840
a lot of DVC accommodation. 
So that was really, really nice.

209
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,040
And then you have options that 
are in the valley. 

210
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,920
You have options that are up on 
the actual hill, you know, 

211
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:30,240
considered like the summit area.
And then also on top of that, 

212
00:11:30,680 --> 00:11:32,400
there was just a lot of 
different things to do. 

213
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:36,640
So we did. 
We had some ski lessons, which 

214
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:42,280
was our very first experience. 
It was very interesting and. 

215
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,080
That's her nice way of saying 
not for me. 

216
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,880
We'll talk about it a little bit
more, but we also got to 

217
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,480
experience, you know, the, the 
water park, the indoor portion 

218
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,840
because it was winter, but there
also was an outdoor portion. 

219
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:57,320
We got to experience the spa. 
We got to experience snow 

220
00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,520
tubing, which I had never known 
before. 

221
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,480
That was a lot of fun. 
And so we had all these, all 

222
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,040
these different, you know, 
things that we got to 

223
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:07,960
experience. 
But I also would like to go back

224
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:11,080
and see, you know, in the fall 
what those are like. 

225
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,960
But yeah, there's just, there 
was just a lot more to do than 

226
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,200
than I had anticipated. 
And one of the things I'm really

227
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:20,120
excited about is that they 
they're almost done with it. 

228
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,720
They built basically it's an 
Alpine coaster, which we had 

229
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,120
ridden one of those in Labadie, 
Haiti. 

230
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:31,880
And basically it's a it's like a
coaster that uses the natural 

231
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:37,840
landscaping and elevations and 
stuff and basically gravity to 

232
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,840
to get you down. 
And you're kind of in charge of 

233
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,640
the break as well. 
But it was just very cool 

234
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:43,760
looking. 
They were testing it when we 

235
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,000
were there it. 
So it should be opening soon. 

236
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,760
But they're continuing to add, 
they're expanding the water 

237
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,520
park. 
So they're continuing to add on 

238
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:53,200
to the amenities of what's 
available. 

239
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,960
But when one of the before Paul 
gets away from me, one of the 

240
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,800
things I was really surprised at
was was the price. 

241
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:05,280
It was a very affordable way for
families to go on a vacation. 

242
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:08,240
You know, I thought that the 
rooms, you know, the lodging was

243
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,760
very affordable as well as a lot
of the amenities and things that

244
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:16,960
you you would buy activities. 
We were there, invited there as 

245
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:20,080
part of a group, and so Marissa 
and Mandy were both there with 

246
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,760
us as part of that. 
But what really intrigues me is 

247
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:27,360
that they both have gone 
previously also with their kids 

248
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,320
and families. 
So they kind of have a unique 

249
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,440
perspective to kind of bring to 
the discussion. 

250
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,480
Marissa, you've been there a 
couple Times Now. 

251
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,760
Give us kind of just your first 
impressions of Massanutten. 

252
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:40,440
Yeah, I think when you get there
there's there's just so much to 

253
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,120
do. 
And so I was pretty impressed by

254
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,600
that. 
I think when I originally had 

255
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,480
heard about it, I thought it was
just kind of like a single ski 

256
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,040
destination. 
But getting there, there's so 

257
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,160
much from like Amy said, the ice
skating or the snow tubing. 

258
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,880
And then even further, there's a
full arcade area, there's the 

259
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:58,960
full water park. 
They have meet and greet 

260
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,680
characters. 
They have we, this wasn't open 

261
00:14:02,680 --> 00:14:06,640
when we were there, but they 
have a whole like kid race track

262
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:11,320
and so just lots of fun things. 
But I will say from a mom 

263
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,920
perspective, it is so 
manageable, but there's so much 

264
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:16,560
to do. 
And that's kind of my perfect 

265
00:14:16,560 --> 00:14:20,520
vacation to where you don't feel
overwhelmed, but you also feel 

266
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,280
like you've done so much on your
list. 

267
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,720
And so especially when you talk 
about skiing with young kids a 

268
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,320
lot of times, and I'm from the 
West Coast, it can be pretty 

269
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,120
daunting and a little bit 
intimidating as you look at like

270
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,360
some of these ski resorts. 
And So what I loved about Mass 

271
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:36,880
Nuttin. 
Because they have a. 

272
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:40,000
Fantastic kids area. 
They have really great 

273
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,600
instructors. 
They have a full area just kind 

274
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,200
of roped off for the kids with 
the Bunny hill to learn how. 

275
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:48,800
And so that to me was really, 
really something special to be 

276
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,960
able to bring my son and let him
learn how to ski for the first 

277
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:56,800
time, but not feel like it was 
too intimidating to try that 

278
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,960
out. 
And again, like Amy mentioned, 

279
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,400
super affordable too. 
So it's something as a family 

280
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:05,200
you can go add on all of these 
fun activities and not feel like

281
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,280
you broke the bank with your 
booking. 

282
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:10,560
Mandy, you and your family have 
a camper and I know love 

283
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,560
wilderness exploring. 
Well I don't know if I want to 

284
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:19,120
speak for you on that family, 
your family and your husband 

285
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,760
Josh and and your girls enjoy 
that. 

286
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,640
So how have they enjoyed 
experiencing Mass and nothing? 

287
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,880
Yeah, it's fun. 
And ironically for us, we 

288
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:31,440
actually had the opportunity to 
kind of go to Massanutten a few 

289
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,720
years ago when we first moved 
here through our daughter's Girl

290
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,760
Scout program. 
So that's one of the things that

291
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,480
Massanutten does as well, is 
that they work with local 

292
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,480
organizations to be able to do 
different types of group 

293
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,480
activities. 
So that's how we ended up there.

294
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:51,280
And so it was really cool. 
My kids really enjoy it. 

295
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:55,240
From the aspect of being able to
enjoy that ski experience. 

296
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,600
I definitely like what Marissa 
said. 

297
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,840
The instructors were fantastic. 
My kids had never ski before the

298
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,360
first time we went there, and 
just being able to have that 

299
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,800
area roped off I think was 
really important to them. 

300
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:07,840
But it's something different, 
right? 

301
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:11,720
So I think for us as a family, 
it's really interesting because 

302
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:16,360
it gives that feel of having a 
lot to do, but it isn't crazy. 

303
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,960
Like when you go to Walt Disney 
World and you feel like you have

304
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:23,120
to have a schedule and doing all
these things, you know, you can 

305
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,640
go, you can relax in whatever 
accommodations you have. 

306
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,240
Like Amy had mentioned, you 
know, you have that luxury of 

307
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,520
like we have a Disney Vacation 
Club of being able to have, you 

308
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,800
know, a one bedroom, 2 bedroom 
studio, but still having some 

309
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:39,200
sort of, you know, kitchen area 
where you can either cook meals 

310
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,640
or at least have breakfasts and 
a place to go and, and relax. 

311
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,320
But there's so much to do there 
as well. 

312
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,160
You know, we've talked about the
skiing a lot. 

313
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:49,400
We've talked about the snow 
tubing. 

314
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,240
I think that those are obviously
pretty big Collins, especially 

315
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:53,880
when we're talking about the 
winter months. 

316
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,360
But what's interesting too is 
that they have other 

317
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,240
opportunities as well. 
So for children and for 

318
00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,360
families, they have something 
like very similar to a community

319
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:03,800
hall. 
I'd call it like a community 

320
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:07,880
hall light where they have 
different crafts and different 

321
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:09,839
games that you can go and you 
can check out. 

322
00:17:10,599 --> 00:17:13,200
And our kids did tie dye when 
they were very, they're very 

323
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:17,480
similar to what they're used to 
at, you know, the DVC resorts. 

324
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:20,800
But then to one of our last 
trips, it rained a little bit 

325
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,240
that day. 
And so, you know, you're 

326
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,800
expecting to be there and do all
this outdoor activity, but they 

327
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:27,640
also have a lot of indoor things
too. 

328
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:31,000
They have virtual reality. 
They have kind of like a top 

329
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:35,360
golf type virtual golf thing, 
but they also have a few indoor 

330
00:17:35,360 --> 00:17:38,320
pools too. 
So while they have the indoor 

331
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:42,040
water park, which is, you know, 
a ticketed activity that you 

332
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,800
would go do, they also have a 
couple of just indoor basic 

333
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,800
pools with a little Kitty area 
and then a diving board. 

334
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,080
So if you have those moments 
where maybe the weather is not 

335
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,760
that great, there's so many 
different things that you can do

336
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,960
as well, even if you're not 
wanting to be outside that day. 

337
00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:00,200
So it just really gives that 
almost like Disney Vacation Club

338
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,960
feel, but like slowing it down 
just a little bit. 

339
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,680
Like, I think that's the best 
way to describe it for for us. 

340
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:10,000
That's that's a great take away 
because so many people these 

341
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,760
days when they go to Disney or 
on on any of these like larger 

342
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:18,280
theme park vacations, we, we use
the vacation term, but truly 

343
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:22,840
you're more exhausted by the end
of that week than you are from 

344
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:26,720
like just a normal week at home.
And so when it like when we 

345
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,320
started like really going to 
Disney pretty hard, that's when 

346
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,640
we did start peppering in some 
other vacations that were true, 

347
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:36,360
like relaxation opportunities. 
And I think that's what's so 

348
00:18:36,360 --> 00:18:40,400
cool here is the Sky's the limit
as to how much you want to go. 

349
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:44,000
And do you here, you know, in my
notes in just talking about the 

350
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,480
resort, I wrote down kind of 
that mountain bubble concept 

351
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:52,000
versus the Disney bubble. 
There is 6000 acres at your 

352
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,440
disposal here. 
And there's so many activities 

353
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:58,240
across that entire resort. 
And so if you have multiple 

354
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:02,200
generations, if you have dad 
that wants to go play golf, if 

355
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,640
you've got grandma and grandpa 
that want to go to a wine 

356
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,520
tasting, there is something for 
everyone here. 

357
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,240
But also there's just that 
opportunity to just kick back, 

358
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:14,680
relax, go to the spa, get a 
massage, just have a nice 

359
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:18,400
relaxing vacation. 
So that's what surprised me the 

360
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,960
most as we were kind of 
exploring the resort. 

361
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:26,360
We've touched on accommodations 
a couple different times, but on

362
00:19:26,360 --> 00:19:29,360
our trip we got to experience 
three different types of 

363
00:19:29,360 --> 00:19:33,280
accommodations, which we wanted 
to kind of highlight as part of 

364
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:37,040
this and compare them a little 
bit to Disney Vacation Club 

365
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:40,200
stays. 
The first, which is what I would

366
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,760
call probably their premium 
accommodations, is what's called

367
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:47,800
the Regal Vistas. 
And I don't have a direct Disney

368
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:51,400
Vacation Club comparison to this
other than like Copper Creek 

369
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:55,440
cabins or, you know, Polynesian 
bungalows in terms of just the 

370
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:59,480
size and space that you have at 
your disposal in these rooms. 

371
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,000
Amy and I just had a short 
period of time to actually tour 

372
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:02,920
them. 
Yeah. 

373
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:07,360
So and, and we we did a whole 
vlog while we were there that is

374
00:20:07,360 --> 00:20:09,360
either going to be posted before
or after this. 

375
00:20:09,360 --> 00:20:12,320
So if you're interested in 
looking and seeing the actual 

376
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,680
accommodations, the. 
Glorious 3 hour production that 

377
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,880
I've put together across two 
different vlogs. 

378
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:21,240
So yeah, you'll get to see every
corner of Massa Dutton. 

379
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:25,960
Thank you, Sam. 
Sam Eagle So the Regal vistas, 

380
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:27,840
the thing that I thought was 
really cool. 

381
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:33,400
So they are set up basically 
like I would say side by side 

382
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:38,240
townhouses and they are two 
bedrooms on each side. 

383
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:43,680
So each one is like a 2 unit 
thing, but you could, you could 

384
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:49,320
book the 1-2 bedroom side or you
could book the whole thing and 

385
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,280
you could have 4 bedrooms. 
If you book the whole thing, you

386
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,920
know, they connect so they can 
be, you know, unlocked. 

387
00:20:55,960 --> 00:21:01,560
So on one side you are getting a
living room, a full kitchen, 

388
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,880
you're getting, you know, a 
fireplace, you're getting a, a 

389
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:09,040
patio or a deck with a grill 
depending on, you know, the 

390
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,440
elevation. 
Some have actual decks, some are

391
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:15,200
more like walk out patios. 
You are getting 2 bedrooms, a 

392
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,840
main bedroom with a main 
bathroom and then you're getting

393
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,120
another bedroom with with 
another bathroom. 

394
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,360
You are also getting A1 car 
garage and which? 

395
00:21:25,360 --> 00:21:28,200
Is huge in the winter. 
Right, right, to be able to park

396
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:32,120
inside then also a driveway, you
know, with space to park as 

397
00:21:32,120 --> 00:21:35,600
well. 
And laundry is well, laundry 

398
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,200
facilities. 
So you have all this on one 

399
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,920
side. 
If you book the two and you get 

400
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,560
the four bedroom, you're also 
getting 2 living rooms, 2 

401
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:47,040
kitchens. 
Like it is huge for, you know, a

402
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:50,680
big family and just giving you 
tons and tons of space, you 

403
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:54,120
know, to to spread out. 
So I loved how you had that kind

404
00:21:54,120 --> 00:21:56,400
of option there where you just 
could do the, you know, the one 

405
00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:00,160
side which was big enough on its
own or the whole thing. 

406
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:04,240
Also the Regal Vistas are going 
through refurbishment, so we got

407
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:08,360
to see one that was not 
refurbished yet and one that was

408
00:22:08,360 --> 00:22:10,880
and, and it is a beautiful 
refurbishment. 

409
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:13,600
And so pretty soon those are all
going to be fully updated as 

410
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,640
well. 
Yeah, Amy and I only spent two 

411
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:19,000
days at the resort before we 
were popsicles basically, and 

412
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:22,600
jumped on a cruise ship. 
But Mandy and Marissa extended 

413
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:26,800
their stay through that weekend,
and both of you also stayed in 

414
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:30,240
the Regal Vistas area. 
Marissa, how is that stay for 

415
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,920
you and your family just to have
nice a nice winter weekend 

416
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:35,240
there? 
It was great. 

417
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:39,040
One of the things I brought my 
at the time, 4 month old baby. 

418
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:42,480
And so when when you talk about 
kind of the amenities, having 

419
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,160
that like full washer dryer was 
huge. 

420
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,040
Also having a full kitchen so 
you could do things like wash 

421
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,000
the bottles and having a 
dishwasher. 

422
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,360
All of that was really, really 
nice to have. 

423
00:22:52,360 --> 00:22:55,720
And it was a great like they 
were super accommodating for a 

424
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:58,120
baby too. 
So they had a pack and play in 

425
00:22:58,120 --> 00:23:01,160
the room ready to go. 
And so all of that was nice, my 

426
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,560
son, and loved it because Amy, 
as you mentioned, there was a 

427
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,880
fireplace in the living room, 
but there's also a fireplace in 

428
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,160
the bedroom. 
And so that was pretty, pretty 

429
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,320
cool to him. 
And then in the mat or the 

430
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:16,240
primary bathroom, there is a 
really huge like Jacuzzi bathtub

431
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,680
in there. 
And so he loved that part as 

432
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,360
well. 
But what he will tell you is his

433
00:23:21,360 --> 00:23:24,600
favorite part of probably the 
whole trip was just having that 

434
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:28,920
whole area to kind of play in. 
You bring a Disney kid somewhere

435
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,600
and his his favorite thing is 
the yard, but it was just to be 

436
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:35,720
able to go to go outside and 
like see snow. 

437
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,760
And I think when you look at a 
lot of times when we're doing 

438
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:43,400
vacations or even Disney stays, 
you're in like a hotel style 

439
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,280
room, right? 
Or you don't have a ton of like 

440
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:49,280
area to play around in, but they
there's these whole like yard 

441
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,400
areas. 
And so if you have kids that are

442
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,960
super active and want kind of 
space to play outside, those 

443
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,040
accommodations gave a ton of 
that. 

444
00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:00,000
So that he will tell you was his
favorite part it. 

445
00:24:01,120 --> 00:24:05,080
Was really funny because at 
during that trip we did our our 

446
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,440
our Vista was kind of catty 
corner to Marissa's and there 

447
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:11,040
was a few times where we would 
leave our family would leave to 

448
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:13,360
go do something and we'd see her
son out there. 

449
00:24:13,360 --> 00:24:16,120
So I think I have a picture that
I'll have to send you that you 

450
00:24:16,120 --> 00:24:19,360
can show everybody of Hayden. 
He was just like sliding down 

451
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:21,920
the hill and then walking back 
up just. 

452
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,400
Living, yeah, didn't even need 
the ski slopes, just needed the 

453
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,280
the backyard of the of the Regal
Vista. 

454
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,480
Mandy, your family had a good 
time staying there also. 

455
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:32,440
Yeah, yeah. 
And we've actually, that's our 

456
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,840
second time staying in the the 
Regal Vistas. 

457
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:36,360
We really, we really enjoyed 
that. 

458
00:24:36,360 --> 00:24:37,760
It's nice. 
We drove. 

459
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:41,920
So from the from, from the 
aspect of driving, it was nice 

460
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:44,560
because you know, we've talked a
lot about like just having those

461
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,800
full amenities. 
But what I really liked is in 

462
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,880
that and there's like a hallway 
like where you have the garage 

463
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,480
and then you have this nice 
hallway where it has like the 

464
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:57,520
washer and dryer and there's a 
ton of storage there too. 

465
00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,840
So you have these two closets. 
Like 1 is more like a coat 

466
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:02,720
closet. 
So especially like during the 

467
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:06,000
winter time, that's fantastic to
be able to have like a, have a 

468
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,040
place right outside of the 
garage, kind of like a, what 

469
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,640
would you call it, like a, like 
a, like a mudroom. 

470
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,800
Like a coat, almost. 
Yeah, just kind. 

471
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:18,320
Of like a hallway, it's where it
would go to, to connect to the 

472
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,920
other unit if you were to have 
both units with you. 

473
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:25,560
But there was there was room for
like extra coats or for like 

474
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,800
your ski gear. 
If you, you know, are avid 

475
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,360
skiers and you're, you know, not
renting and you're bringing your

476
00:25:31,360 --> 00:25:34,440
sneak ski gear and really just 
like all the extra things you 

477
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:38,560
need, you know, hats and gloves 
and boots, it's just nice to be 

478
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,440
able to have extra space for 
that. 

479
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:44,320
But you know, just similarly, 
like everyone else was saying, 

480
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,880
it's just nice to be able to 
have that full accommodations. 

481
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,280
My kids really enjoy like the 
fireplace and just, there's a, 

482
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:54,400
there's a full kitchen table and
you know, there's, there's, 

483
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,440
there's lounge furniture and, 
and it's just a nice place to 

484
00:25:57,440 --> 00:25:59,720
relax. 
And I think that's what was 

485
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:03,520
really nice for us was we've 
kind of gone both of the times 

486
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:07,040
where like only just for like a 
long weekend and then the one 

487
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,320
time was a little bit longer. 
I think we were there for like 5

488
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,320
nights. 
But you can do either, right? 

489
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,400
And it's still very relaxing 
because you don't have to have 

490
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,680
that schedule and constantly go,
go, go. 

491
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,280
So you do. 
They're feeling a lot more 

492
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,880
relaxed than than when, you 
know, you go to Disney and you 

493
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,240
feel like you need a vacation 
from your vacation, so. 

494
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:30,440
So I would say that Regal Vistas
is probably the largest, you 

495
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,240
know, accommodation option that 
they really offer there and, and

496
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:38,000
probably their newest and more 
luxurious stay option available 

497
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,080
at Massanutten. 
But in counting through the 

498
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:43,800
options, I think there's over 10
different types of accommodation

499
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,760
options and places that you can 
stay throughout the resort. 

500
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:48,520
They even have a dog friendly 
hotel. 

501
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:54,040
They're building a new hotel 
over by the water park and there

502
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:56,160
there's just so many different 
properties. 

503
00:26:56,360 --> 00:26:58,560
Now all of the, these are 
essentially timeshare 

504
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:00,840
properties. 
So they're going to mimic a lot 

505
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:04,280
of those amenities like Amy had 
mentioned earlier that you are 

506
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:07,200
accustomed to in a Disney 
Vacation Club resort. 

507
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,000
So for Amy and I, for our stay, 
we actually stayed at a place 

508
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:14,000
called Woodstone Meadows, which 
from the outside looks very 

509
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:17,920
similar to a condo building. 
And then in each building you 

510
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:21,560
essentially have the option for 
what I'm calling kind of like a 

511
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,160
one bedroom unit. 
So you walk in a main door, you 

512
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,800
have what I'm calling like a one
bedroom unit off on one side and

513
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:31,080
then what I'm calling like, I 
don't know, like a deluxe studio

514
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:34,280
plus on the other side, because 
there's, there's a couple other 

515
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:37,600
benefits on that side then 
you're used to with a regular 

516
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,880
deluxe studio. 
And then you also have the 

517
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:44,160
ability to essentially open both
of those doors and have the 

518
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:48,520
outer door be your entry door 
into a larger villa villa if 

519
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,040
you're looking for a 2 bedroom 
style accommodation. 

520
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:56,640
So we stayed in the one bedroom 
side of of that villa and also 

521
00:27:56,640 --> 00:28:00,800
had a fireplace, had a pull out 
couch in the living room for 

522
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:06,160
additional accommodations, had a
full kitchen, nice little deck 

523
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,080
that overlooked. 
We were overlooking part of the 

524
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,200
golf course. 
So it's golf in the summer, 

525
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,880
summer time. 
And then a full bathroom and 

526
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:18,640
then the bedroom, which also had
a Jacuzzi tub in the bedroom, 

527
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:23,560
which was was new for Amy and I.
But when you're cold, Amy 

528
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,600
realized very quickly that 
that's enjoyable. 

529
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:27,600
Yeah, I. 
Did like, I did like it, Yeah. 

530
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,840
And, and and the bathroom 
without, like the juicy stuff 

531
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:32,680
was in the bedroom. 
But the bathroom itself was 

532
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,600
huge. 
Yeah, it was a really good size.

533
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:36,520
Yeah. 
Just a whole lot of space. 

534
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:40,600
Shower, all of that and then on 
the other side, so if you were 

535
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,760
to combine accommodations or 
just wanted a little bit of a 

536
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:46,560
smaller accommodation, that area
still had a small little kitchen

537
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:52,040
table area, had had a fireplace,
a pull out couch, a full bedroom

538
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:56,040
bathroom, and then a little 
kitchenette area that also had 

539
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,320
those things that Amy mentioned 
like a hot plate, an electric 

540
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,400
skillet. 
Yeah, So it wasn't, it was 

541
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:04,440
definitely a lot larger than 
what you think when you think of

542
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:08,600
a DVC studio kitchenette. 
It was more like a kitchen. 

543
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:12,000
It just didn't have a stove. 
I think it's still had, I have 

544
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:13,720
to look at a photo real quick, 
but I think it still had a 

545
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:18,040
fridge and a mic or a fridge and
a dishwasher and it had 

546
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,440
cabinetry and stuff. 
It just didn't have like the 

547
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:23,200
full stove. 
But yeah, it had like the 

548
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,560
electric skillet and and some 
other things like that. 

549
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,440
And then the other accommodation
that we actually got the tour 

550
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:31,480
while we were there was called 
the summit, which this is 

551
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:35,080
actually further up, closer to 
where the skiing and the snow 

552
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,800
sports area is. 
And what I thought was unique 

553
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:41,840
about that is it almost mimics a
little bit of what Regal Vistas 

554
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:46,320
has to offer, which is that 
these are two-bedroom units, but

555
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,520
you can combine the units and 
they're top and bottom. 

556
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:53,560
So they're combined by a central
stairwell that has a nice little

557
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,040
chandelier that hangs down 
through the middle of it. 

558
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:59,640
But there's a top and bottom 
unit that can be combined into, 

559
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:03,960
again, 4 bedrooms if you need a 
larger style accommodation. 

560
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:06,240
So, you know, we asked while we 
were there, what kind of 

561
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,760
families do you see, you know, 
traveling here, you see like 

562
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:13,600
multi generally generational 
trips, you see family reunions, 

563
00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:15,720
you know, larger family 
gatherings. 

564
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,440
But again, if it's just, you 
know, you and your significant 

565
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,320
other, you're still also going. 
To have options. 

566
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:23,560
And the cool thing about the 
summit was you were at the 

567
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:28,440
summit, so your views out the 
deck were you could see the the 

568
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,360
ski slopes in the hills and you 
were like looking down in the 

569
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:32,600
valley. 
Where is it? 

570
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:34,360
Woodstone? 
We were kind of more in the 

571
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,960
valley, but we were a little 
more centrally located to the 

572
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,520
amenities. 
And then I feel like Regal 

573
00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:43,080
Vistas was kind of up on a 
little bit of a hill. 

574
00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,880
It has some really pretty valley
valley views. 

575
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,000
The water park area and. 
Yeah. 

576
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,440
So there's kind of a lot of 
options there depending on, you 

577
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:52,800
know, what kind of you do you 
want, how close do you want to 

578
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:56,880
be to, you know, the, the 
different activities and things 

579
00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:59,440
like that. 
Mandy, Marissa, if either of you

580
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:03,200
were comparing these to DVC 
accommodations anymore kind of 

581
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,800
any anything else you would 
maybe add to that conversation? 

582
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:10,080
I would say again, just kind of 
looking at the Regal Vista side,

583
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:13,600
I I think to your point, it 
definitely has maybe even like 

584
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:17,680
kind of an old Key West style 
feel of like the, the everything

585
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,440
is just a lot bigger in terms of
space. 

586
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:20,960
So your bedrooms are a lot 
bigger. 

587
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:24,440
So kind of going old school in 
terms of like layout and space 

588
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:26,320
options. 
Totally, Yeah. 

589
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,280
I had written down with some of 
my notes, like, you know, 

590
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:32,600
Saratoga Springs, Old Key West, 
those resorts that everyone's 

591
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,880
like, when are they going to 
build accommodations that big 

592
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:36,880
again at DVC? 
And it's like, no, we're, we're 

593
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,560
stuck with towers now with DVC. 
And the answer is never. 

594
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:44,040
It's, it's not going to happen. 
But but yeah, it, it's those 

595
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,880
larger accommodations that 
you're kind of used to from 

596
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,760
those properties. 
That's a great comparison moving

597
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:53,600
into what is my favorite 
discussion part of any vacation.

598
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,680
Food, all things food, all 
things dining. 

599
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,960
And I think that there are so 
many different options to 

600
00:31:59,960 --> 00:32:02,880
explore here at Massanutten, 
also when it comes to eat. 

601
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:07,080
But there's also options that 
are nearby that you can also 

602
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:11,240
take your car, head off property
for a day and explore those 

603
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:15,240
options. 
We did a lot, a lot over the 

604
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:16,800
course of two days. 
I can't even. 

605
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,720
Remember it all just really 
quickly and I'll go right back 

606
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,760
to that. 
I just looking for the photo 

607
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:26,600
because I just wanted to see the
the studio kitchenette, but it 

608
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:28,800
it is it looks like almost a 
full kitchen. 

609
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:34,760
It's got a big fridge, it's got 
a dishwasher, a full sink, a 

610
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:38,880
microwave, a coffee maker, it's 
got lots of cabinetry for 

611
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,360
storage and stuff like that. 
So yeah, a lot more. 

612
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:44,280
To kick off food dining, if you 
don't want to go anywhere you 

613
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,080
can cook in your kitchen. 
There you go in. 

614
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:48,800
The studio, You could cook. 
Yeah. 

615
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:51,520
Now ask me what the question was
again. 

616
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:54,240
I was too busy looking. 
At Yeah, there were just so many

617
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:57,400
different options that we 
explored relating to food and 

618
00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:58,960
dining. 
Do you have a favorite from the 

619
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,400
time that you? 
Were so there's two this stick 

620
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:04,400
out to me that I think of and 
and one that I wish we didn't 

621
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,280
get the chance to go. 
We were just so busy. 

622
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,320
There's a place called Campfire 
Grill and that looked really, 

623
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:10,680
really good. 
So I really wanted to try that. 

624
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:15,680
We didn't get to try that. 
We went to first of all, we went

625
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:19,920
to a place that is off property,
but it's kind of like a local 

626
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:22,480
favorite. 
It's called Hank's BBQ. 

627
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:27,400
It was just like like a 3 minute
drive or so and it was, it was 

628
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,120
super good. 
We had great service. 

629
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:32,360
The food was good. 
I had, I was looking for 

630
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,920
something a little healthier and
so I had this bowl that was this

631
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:39,200
was like grilled chicken and 
rice and avocado and pico de 

632
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,680
Gallo. 
But you also had the, the 

633
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:45,840
barbecue and I think ribs maybe.
And they were very, very good. 

634
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:47,920
And then I also had cheesy 
grits. 

635
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:50,600
Amazing. 
But the other place that I 

636
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:52,680
really enjoyed it was kind of 
unique. 

637
00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:58,200
It was called base camp and it 
was, it was kind of like you 

638
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:02,000
were outdoors, but you were 
still inside like warm enough. 

639
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,640
So it, it kind of they, they 
refer to it sometimes as the 

640
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:09,239
umbrella bar. 
So it's like this clear. 

641
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:10,639
I don't even know how to explain
it. 

642
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,800
It looks like a you're in this 
giant clear gazebo, umbrella, 

643
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:17,320
whatever, and they can open it. 
Even like a. 

644
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,280
Like a Dome. 
Yeah, like a Dome. 

645
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:24,600
And so they can open panels and 
close the panels depending on 

646
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:27,280
the weather conditions. 
So if it's cold, it'll keep you 

647
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:30,040
warm, or if it's nice out, they 
can kind of open it up. 

648
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:33,560
But after our ski lesson, we sat
in there and had lunch. 

649
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,040
I think we had like nachos or 
something, but just the 

650
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,880
atmosphere. 
And nachos specific here. 

651
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:40,000
It's like the. 
Signature. 

652
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:44,280
Dish like. 
But just when we were there, we,

653
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:47,760
we were kind of hot from it was 
all snowy outside, but we were 

654
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:51,880
kind of hot from our ski lesson 
and having we had all this gear 

655
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:55,840
and stuff on and they had like a
couple of the panels open. 

656
00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,920
And so we kind of sat right 
there and the breeze was really 

657
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,480
nice, but the sun was coming in 
and felt really good. 

658
00:35:01,720 --> 00:35:04,360
So I just thought that that was 
a really cool atmosphere. 

659
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,600
Yeah, I think that. 
You know, just. 

660
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,120
Having that right at the base of
the mountain before you would 

661
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,800
head onto a ski lift, like 
people were literally just like 

662
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:16,200
shooting off on a snowboard and 
taking the board off, coming in,

663
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:19,000
grabbing a beer. 
They had places where you could 

664
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,480
put your gear and stuff, you 
know, kind of like parking a 

665
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,200
bike and going yeah to. 
So that was neat. 

666
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:27,200
Yeah, because you were right 
there where you could actually 

667
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,560
just then, you know, grab your 
skis, grab your snowboard, and 

668
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:32,680
head back out. 
Except. 

669
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,240
Unless you're us, because. 
That's that was we were done. 

670
00:35:35,240 --> 00:35:38,400
Yeah, we were. 
We were toasted that the Bunny 

671
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:42,520
hills killed us. 
So but but we, we, we did that. 

672
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,360
Mandy, of the food options that 
you've explored at the resort, 

673
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:47,960
what's kind of some of your 
favorites that you've 

674
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:50,320
experienced? 
I love Campfire Grill. 

675
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:53,160
I know you guys didn't get a 
chance to experience it, but 

676
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:57,280
campfire grill is really good. 
They have a lot of their chef 

677
00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,400
does a lot of really nice 
dishes. 

678
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,760
It it's very like it it I mean, 
it is what it sounds like, 

679
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:05,000
right? 
Like it's campfire grill. 

680
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:10,200
It's like very Hardy, kind of 
just like home cooked meal 

681
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,960
almost you could think of. 
But they have a lot of different

682
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:16,040
options there. 
They have a lot of different 

683
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:19,000
appetizers and a lot of 
different entrees. 

684
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,600
They have really fun desserts, 
like they have like a skillet 

685
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:27,160
s'mores dessert there as well. 
I had the salmon there and it 

686
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,200
was really delicious, really 
nicely cooked. 

687
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,480
My husband enjoys. 
They have like a burger that's 

688
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:33,920
really good there as well. 
But they have all different 

689
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:36,440
types of options, lots of 
different options for the kids 

690
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,160
as well. 
Fun drinks too. 

691
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,520
I think what really sets it 
apart too, and what like Disney 

692
00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:45,200
Vacation Club members, I think 
will really like is the theming.

693
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:50,520
It is themed very like almost 
wilderness lodge, like there's 

694
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:55,560
bears and it's, it's very 
camping, just very encompassing 

695
00:36:55,560 --> 00:37:00,120
of like the Shenandoah Valley. 
And so the theming is so nice 

696
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:01,680
and it really ties into the 
food. 

697
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,440
They take a there's a lot of 
thought into the theming and how

698
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:07,400
it pairs with the food and the 
different drink options that 

699
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,080
they have and desserts. 
And so I think that's something 

700
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,600
that like our viewers would 
really appreciate too. 

701
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,400
Somebody who's ADVC member, 
you're used to a lot of that 

702
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:18,440
within the Disney bubble. 
And so that I think will really 

703
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:22,280
stand out for for everyone as a 
as a Disney Vacation Club member

704
00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:22,720
too. 
And. 

705
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:26,200
Marissa had mentioned earlier 
there are there are characters 

706
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,560
that are kind of mascots to the 
property. 

707
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:32,120
One of them I believe is is 
Splash, who is the frog from. 

708
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,520
The water park, yeah. 
From the water park. 

709
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:39,320
So Splashes Bar and Grill is 
actually located at the water 

710
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:41,440
park. 
We went there after exploring 

711
00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,920
that area one night. 
The fried chicken that I had. 

712
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,080
There was a. 
Huge was a huge portion for like

713
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:51,280
$20.00 I think it was. 
So we're not talking Disney 

714
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:53,880
outrageous prices here. 
We're talking about normal 

715
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:56,840
restaurant prices if you're 
taking yourself out to eat. 

716
00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:02,960
A friend service restaurant it's
on the like the top floor so you

717
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:05,920
can we could overlook and see 
the outdoor portion of the water

718
00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:10,440
park, which obviously wasn't 
open in the winter but so we're 

719
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:13,440
we're as you're used to mostly 
water parks having just quick 

720
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,400
service but yeah this was this 
was a full service sit down 

721
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:18,560
served at your table restaurant 
they. 

722
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,640
Were playing bingo that night. 
They were playing bingo. 

723
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:23,640
So when you you gave, when you 
came in, they gave you like the 

724
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:25,760
bingo cards that you could, you 
could play along. 

725
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:29,880
And then they also have leaked 
some quick service often options

726
00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:33,840
down on the level with the the 
rest of the water park stuff. 

727
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:35,120
Yeah. 
So that was one of the 

728
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:38,480
highlights that I had noted from
from us being there. 

729
00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:43,040
And then also, I love right 
where you again, kind of at that

730
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,280
same base camp area, there's a 
little coffee shop where you can

731
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:50,000
just grab coffee and a Danish or
coffee and anything. 

732
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:52,600
We also didn't get to try the 
Waffle Cabin. 

733
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,440
Everybody was talking about that
and I didn't even see it. 

734
00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:59,640
I walked by the waffle count. 
Have you guys been to? 

735
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:03,400
The smell, yeah. 
So we went and my son had one 

736
00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:04,440
and like. 
This was. 

737
00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:07,520
After he done like half a day of
skiing and so he had one and 

738
00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:08,600
he's like, can I get a second 
one? 

739
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,920
He's like right away. 
So I was like, sure, we're we're

740
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:15,280
on vacation, but so good. 
Yeah, if you if you're, if 

741
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:18,080
you're lost, I'm trying to find 
the waffle count cabin. 

742
00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:23,280
It is like down near where you 
kind of enter into where they're

743
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:27,240
doing ski lessons or like the 
very beginner hills right at the

744
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,280
the base of the mountain down 
there. 

745
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,840
Marissa other food options that 
we've not highlighted that you 

746
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:34,440
you and your family experience 
that you enjoyed. 

747
00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:38,000
We we also enjoyed campfire 
grill elevations is a really 

748
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,000
cool spot. 
It's it's right near kind of 

749
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:43,640
that base camp area and it just 
feels like very, very ski 

750
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:45,680
resort. 
So you go in and it's got like 

751
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:49,200
old fashioned skis on the wall 
and it's a two-story kind of 

752
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:52,080
loft feel. 
And again, you've got windows at

753
00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,480
Outlook right there. 
You can see people skiing by. 

754
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:58,040
So that's a really fun spot. 
One of the things that stood out

755
00:39:58,040 --> 00:39:59,960
to me that most there was the 
desserts. 

756
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,560
And I'm not a huge dessert 
person, but living here in 

757
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:06,640
Orlando. 
When you're so used to very kind

758
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:11,400
of like highly processed, more 
touristy destinations, I feel 

759
00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:14,120
like a lot of times the desserts
lose flavor a little bit. 

760
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:16,360
And so the desserts there were 
so good. 

761
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:20,080
But what I found out is they do 
have an in house pastry chef And

762
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,800
so they, they really do like you
have brownies or cookies there 

763
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,200
and they taste like your mom had
homemade them. 

764
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:28,560
And that's why it's because they
have somebody on site making all

765
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,800
of those fantastic desserts. 
So that's something that really 

766
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:34,360
stood out to me as well. 
That's awesome that yeah, now 

767
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,360
you're just making me hungry for
like a big, like, gooey 

768
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:38,800
chocolate chip cookie at the 
moment. 

769
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:42,920
There was also the that Virginia
Barbecue and Pizza company and 

770
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:45,800
we didn't have a chance to eat 
there, but we walked in. 

771
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:50,120
It's connected to the the main 
lobby where you go and check in 

772
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:51,880
and. 
Mandy and Grayson had lunch. 

773
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:54,280
Did you guys go there or? 
Grabbed something? 

774
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:57,040
Yeah, yeah, we did. 
When we the first day we got 

775
00:40:57,040 --> 00:40:59,600
there, we grabbed something 
really quickly before we headed 

776
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:01,840
off to the escape room. 
But yeah, we did. 

777
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:03,840
And it's good. 
It's it's more of like a quick 

778
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:05,640
service, right? 
Like what we would consider like

779
00:41:05,720 --> 00:41:07,880
quick service. 
But yeah, they have the Virginia

780
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:10,760
BBQ side where they have a, you 
know, a few different BBQ dishes

781
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,680
that you can get and some 
sandwiches and options for kids.

782
00:41:14,240 --> 00:41:17,280
And then they have the Virginia 
Pizza Company, I think is what 

783
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:20,160
it's called. 
Yeah, that's what it's called. 

784
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:23,000
There was a lot of. 
Seating, I felt like in there 

785
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:24,760
too. 
And then it would just be a good

786
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:27,080
place, like if you want to grab 
something and take it back to 

787
00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,400
your accommodation, right? 
Yeah. 

788
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:34,360
Yeah, Two other notes that I had
written down just regarding 

789
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:37,600
dining, but also more just 
general amenities. 

790
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:40,680
That's nearby the resort. 
So you're less than 30 minutes 

791
00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:43,320
from Harrisonburg, which is 
where you're also going to have 

792
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:46,920
a Walmart, all sorts of just 
standard restaurants, 

793
00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:48,760
Applebee's, Olive. 
Garden Where is the target? 

794
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:52,520
There's a Target, so you know, 
if you're, if you're looking to 

795
00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:55,720
stock up before you head to the 
resort so that you can fill your

796
00:41:55,720 --> 00:41:59,000
fridge with stuff for breakfast 
or just general, you know, 

797
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,120
goodies to have available during
your stay. 

798
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:04,720
You can head over to 
Harrisonburg or if you're coming

799
00:42:04,720 --> 00:42:08,120
through, you know, Richmond, 
there's plenty of options. 

800
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,800
We stopped at a Walmart, I think
almost like halfway from 

801
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:16,120
Richmond to Massenaten and just 
grabbed a couple of things for 

802
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:17,960
the few days that we were going 
to be there. 

803
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:23,160
And then we did an activity one 
day, which was a wine tasting. 

804
00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:25,600
And what I also thought was 
interesting was that within 

805
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:31,000
about an hours drive, there are 
like 10 wineries and all kinds 

806
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:36,800
of very local good Virginia 
wines, plenty of options. 

807
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:39,080
So if you're looking, if you 
have, if you have a family 

808
00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:42,240
member that is a wine 
connoisseur and wants to explore

809
00:42:42,240 --> 00:42:45,600
some of these places, a lot of 
good wineries and a lot of good 

810
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:49,040
brewery options. 
Also a couple which kind of pair

811
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:51,360
together throughout the region. 
Yeah. 

812
00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:53,400
And then they, you're probably 
going to talk about this, but 

813
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:56,000
they do a wine tasting class 
that we got to take part of and 

814
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:59,560
they share with you. 
And they're all local Virginia 

815
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,240
wines and they, you know, tell 
you where they're at. 

816
00:43:02,240 --> 00:43:04,560
And yeah, most of them, like you
said, are very, very close 

817
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:06,960
within a driving distance of the
resort. 

818
00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:09,560
So that was a lot of fun just to
see. 

819
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:14,120
Moving into the highlight of our
stay at Massanutten and for Amy 

820
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:18,280
and I as first timers, it was 
snow sports and it was putting 

821
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:21,160
on a set of skis, which if 
you've never done so before, it 

822
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:22,760
takes a lot longer than you 
thought. 

823
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:25,840
We gave ourselves about 1/2 hour
and that was about 1/2 hour too,

824
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:29,280
too short to get ourselves 
dressed for the first time, 

825
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:32,960
realize how to put a snow boot 
on and all that kind of fun 

826
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:36,280
stuff. 
But yeah, I think this is really

827
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:39,120
where the Massanutten Resort 
really shines is that there are 

828
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:42,000
so many activities for anyone 
involved. 

829
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:45,800
So for us, as I mentioned 
previously, and as Amy kind of 

830
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:50,600
said, so we had the opportunity 
to do a private ski lesson since

831
00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:54,240
it was our first time on skis. 
And I do very much recommend 

832
00:43:54,240 --> 00:43:58,200
going the private route if it is
your first time skiing and doing

833
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,400
one of these lessons because 
they're going to teach you 

834
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,120
everything like how to get in 
and out of the skis and how to 

835
00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:06,640
put the gear on. 
We had an instructor, I believe 

836
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:11,200
his name was Jim, and he was in 
his 80s. 

837
00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:15,760
He has been doing this longer 
than I think either of us have 

838
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:18,600
been alive. 
And he was. 

839
00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:21,440
I can only equate him to he was.
In his 70s. 

840
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:24,120
Really not pretty sure he was 
OK. 

841
00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:28,160
I apologize Jim if you hear this
and we aged you too much, but. 

842
00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:31,920
He was very, very it was. 
Like if your grandfather was 

843
00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:35,120
teaching you to ski, it was that
level of kindness. 

844
00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:38,840
Like he was holding your he. 
Was he was very patient with us,

845
00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:43,440
you know, and I was very nervous
and, and he was also just very 

846
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,800
skilled, like, you know, Paul 
saying, you know, well, this guy

847
00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:51,400
was in his seventies 80s, but 
when he came to ski, I mean, he 

848
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:54,520
looked like he skied like he was
in his 20s, so. 

849
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:58,800
No, he was, yeah, he was awesome
and he was a great instructor. 

850
00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:01,640
For us to have that first 
lesson, there were a lot of 

851
00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:04,720
people before we headed out 
there for the couple days 

852
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:08,120
telling us to pizza and not 
French fry. 

853
00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:11,160
And in my mind, I didn't equate 
that to skiing. 

854
00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:13,920
I just thought that they had 
good pizza and not to get the 

855
00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:14,960
French fries. 
I don't know. 

856
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:17,280
I really did not understand what
those terms meant. 

857
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:22,360
I do now, obviously, but we had 
a wonderful time skiing. 

858
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:27,000
We also got to do their Northern
Lights snow. 

859
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,680
Tube experience, I like that the
best because they didn't require

860
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:34,440
any skill. 
So if you, if you skiing or 

861
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:37,920
snowboarding or any of those 
things are not your thing, but 

862
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:40,920
you still want to be involved in
some kind of like winter 

863
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:46,680
activities, do the snow tubing. 
And so they have time slots 

864
00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:49,640
throughout the daytime and then 
they have what we did, which was

865
00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:52,360
the Northern Lights, which was 
in the evening and they have 

866
00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:58,160
lights. 
But basically you get a tube and

867
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:03,080
you get on this lift, which is 
kind of like a a conveyor, which

868
00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:04,120
all you have to do is stand on 
it. 

869
00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:08,080
So it doesn't take any skill 
with your tube and it takes you 

870
00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:10,240
up the hill. 
And then once you get up the 

871
00:46:10,240 --> 00:46:13,560
hill, you sit in your tube. 
There's, you know, guides up 

872
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:18,640
there to kind of help you and it
depending on the conditions of, 

873
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:21,960
you know, whatever the 
conditions are that day, you can

874
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:27,320
they'll let you go tandem so you
can kind of connect to, you 

875
00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:29,200
know, your friends or your 
family or whoever you're with. 

876
00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:33,080
So Paul and I, you know, we, we 
kept our tubes together a couple

877
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:34,560
times. 
We also went separate a couple 

878
00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:36,880
times. 
I went down with Mandy. 

879
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:39,680
There was some, you know, going 
with three at a time. 

880
00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:42,480
And so it was kind of fun, you 
know, to go down with your 

881
00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:46,680
friends, but it is just this, 
this, I don't even know how to 

882
00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:48,560
explain. 
Like there's these lanes that 

883
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:52,360
are built into the snow and the 
ice and you're going down 

884
00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:56,960
YouTube. 
And it was fast At first I, when

885
00:46:56,960 --> 00:47:00,160
I saw it, I thought I said, you 
know, I'm going to do this once.

886
00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:02,240
I'm going to be able to say I 
did it and that's the end of it.

887
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:05,440
But I think by the end we had 
gone down like 7 times or so. 

888
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:07,200
Peer pressure got the best of 
her it. 

889
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:09,520
Was also fun, so I just wanted 
to go back. 

890
00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:11,920
Your biggest challenge was 
getting out of the inner tube at

891
00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:14,040
the end of it? 
Yeah, it was always like, we 

892
00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:16,320
were already halfway up the 
conveyor belt and I was like, 

893
00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:17,960
where's Amy? 
And she's still getting out of 

894
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:20,480
her inner tube down. 
It's well, icy. 

895
00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:23,240
It had rained, it had rained 
that day. 

896
00:47:23,240 --> 00:47:26,000
So it was it was a little bit 
icier. 

897
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:28,720
So that also made the track a 
little bit faster. 

898
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:31,880
There's also an ice rink that 
you can take advantage of there 

899
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:33,280
so. 
I feel like ice skating. 

900
00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:37,280
Do you like ice skating? 
I you know, again, we are from 

901
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,720
the Northeast. 
We have never done any of these 

902
00:47:39,720 --> 00:47:41,280
things. 
We have stayed off slippery 

903
00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:43,480
surfaces for most of our life. 
Right. 

904
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:47,440
And when I was a kid and we 
would go to Ogilvy and like snow

905
00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:51,280
tube or sled ride the hill was 
and then you had to walk all the

906
00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:53,600
way back up and trudge and like 
drag your stuff. 

907
00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:57,400
So it was cool having like get 
to go down and then you get on 

908
00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:00,120
the little conveyor belt and you
ride it back up and so. 

909
00:48:00,240 --> 00:48:03,040
Now that being said, I realized 
when we were snow tubing that we

910
00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:05,400
were dealing with a with like a 
winter sports expert when 

911
00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:07,000
Marissa showed up with. 
Oh my goodness. 

912
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:09,960
Ski goggles on, Marissa. 
Like you. 

913
00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:13,880
You were like, I feel like you. 
You thrive on ice. 

914
00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:15,680
Is that correct? 
Yeah, I, I. 

915
00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:19,400
Grew up about 45 minutes from a 
ski slope growing up, and so I 

916
00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:23,240
spent a lot of time in the snow 
and in the mountains, yeah. 

917
00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:25,680
Where was. 
This my mom decided to 

918
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:29,480
homeschool us for two years and 
they did Friday ski days so we 

919
00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:32,920
would go skiing every Friday 
which was interesting. 

920
00:48:33,720 --> 00:48:38,000
It it's in Northern California 
so it it's about like 2 hours 

921
00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:40,920
West of like Tahoe area. 
OK. 

922
00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:45,480
Cool. 
So from an expert skier and and 

923
00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:48,360
and and snow veteran, what was 
kind of the winter sports like 

924
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:51,440
it at Massanutten? 
Well, I, I then moved to Florida

925
00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:53,720
and took like 20 years off. 
So I don't know if I could, I 

926
00:48:53,720 --> 00:48:56,080
could claim the expert label 
anymore. 

927
00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:59,200
However, for anybody listening, 
if you are used to like West 

928
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,120
Coast ski, it is going to be 
different. 

929
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:03,760
So if you're wondering like how,
how does that work East Coast 

930
00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:07,120
ski versus West Coast ski? 
They they do a lot of man made 

931
00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:10,320
ski at Massanutten. 
They had a big snowstorm. 

932
00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:13,440
So I think we got a nice kind of
combo of both and quite 

933
00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:16,680
honestly, if you skied West 
Coast posted all the season, you

934
00:49:16,680 --> 00:49:18,680
probably had a lot of man made 
snow too. 

935
00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:20,960
I've been seeing that all 
around, especially like Park 

936
00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:26,120
City and Deer Valley, but they 
have fantastic machines there. 

937
00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:29,560
And so one of the things that I 
learned my first trip there was 

938
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:32,560
kind of the later you go in the 
day, the more icy that snow is 

939
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:35,920
going to get versus if you do 
make the effort to get out first

940
00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:38,720
thing, you're getting that 
fresh, even if it's man made, 

941
00:49:38,720 --> 00:49:41,840
you're getting that fresh snow, 
which makes a massive difference

942
00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:46,080
on how you ski if you're kind of
trudging that ice or if you're 

943
00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:49,440
hitting that nice powder skiing.
And so definitely earlier in the

944
00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:53,080
morning benefits a lot, but this
time because they did have some 

945
00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:55,160
snow leading up to our time 
there. 

946
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,240
There was a lot more powder. 
The snow is a lot softer this 

947
00:49:58,240 --> 00:50:01,800
year going in and so it was a 
lot of fun and I think again, 

948
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:05,520
kind of going back to if you're 
not an expert skier and I 

949
00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:07,960
wouldn't call myself one of 
those, but if you if you just 

950
00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:11,080
like the joy of skiing and want 
to kind of be able to easily 

951
00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:12,760
access the lifts and then 
mountains. 

952
00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:14,840
I love that about mass. 
Nothing. 

953
00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:17,800
There's hardly any line. 
We stand over presidents 

954
00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:19,880
weekend. 
And so I think on actually like 

955
00:50:19,880 --> 00:50:22,160
when it got busy kind of all the
kids were out of school. 

956
00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:24,680
I do know that like the ski 
lines got a little bit longer, 

957
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:27,920
but for the most part, whenever 
I've been there, it's not been 

958
00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:30,440
more than like a 3 minute wait 
to get on a lift. 

959
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:33,200
And that's huge because quite 
honestly, when you go skiing, 

960
00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:35,800
you don't want to be spending 
your day waiting in line for a 

961
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:37,240
lift. 
You want to be able to get up 

962
00:50:37,240 --> 00:50:40,280
there and take advantage of it. 
And so having that and then 

963
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:43,760
obviously having like the ski 
and ski out elements of a lot of

964
00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:46,720
the restaurants, it allows you 
to really take advantage of that

965
00:50:46,720 --> 00:50:49,400
full ski day, which I think if 
people are listening and they 

966
00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:52,960
are avid snow or ski people that
these are some of the great 

967
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:55,880
benefits there. 
I love how the YouTube algorithm

968
00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:58,560
works because after I was there,
I started getting served like 

969
00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:03,680
all of these informational ads 
on skiing and kind of the skiing

970
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:08,160
controversy out West with like, 
I think it's like Vail Resorts 

971
00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:11,240
and their Max pass where you can
go anywhere. 

972
00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:14,400
And like the horror stories of 
like you said, Marissa, like 

973
00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:17,920
these crazy long lines at the 
lifts and all of that. 

974
00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:21,240
And that's, you know, having a 
like a little bit of a smaller, 

975
00:51:21,240 --> 00:51:26,560
more independent ski resort 
really alleviate some of those 

976
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:29,880
factors for you. 
I mean, it was a beautiful day, 

977
00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:32,800
the day that we were on the 
slopes and I didn't see anyone 

978
00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:34,400
really waiting. 
Like you were just getting on 

979
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:36,720
the lifts going up and coming 
back down. 

980
00:51:36,720 --> 00:51:39,680
And you know that that seems to 
be kind of the norm. 

981
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:43,360
And just just a touch on, I 
don't really know what a lot of 

982
00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:48,680
these terms mean, but Massenon 
offers 23 trails across 82 

983
00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:54,360
skiable acres. 
It says 1175 foot vertical drop 

984
00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:57,200
with options for all levels, 
including night skiing, which we

985
00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:59,320
did see people skiing in at 
night. 

986
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:04,280
So it has terrain parks, There's
two terrain parks that. 

987
00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:07,480
Would be like more. 
Freestyle, right, And like I 

988
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:09,240
think like you can do jumps and 
stuff. 

989
00:52:09,240 --> 00:52:13,560
I believe there's also beginner.
There's there's a handful of 

990
00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:15,560
beginner routes. 
There's a handful of 

991
00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:21,040
intermediate as well as expert 
in advance and they even have a 

992
00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:24,360
Is it? 
It's a double black diamond. 

993
00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:25,760
And that's what you did, Mandy, 
right? 

994
00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:30,080
Double Black Diamond. 
No, I did not. 

995
00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:33,360
Someone who is not an expert 
skier. 

996
00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:35,880
I did. 
Not do that. 

997
00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:40,480
How did your family and girls 
enjoy kind of the snow 

998
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:43,000
activities? 
They enjoy it, they really like 

999
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:44,320
it. 
They had never been skiing 

1000
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:49,200
before until this last well, 
until our first trip there and 

1001
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:52,520
we did the private ski lessons 
for them and and the instructors

1002
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:55,720
were just fantastic. 
And the second time that we that

1003
00:52:55,720 --> 00:52:58,760
we went the first time, they 
kind of stayed more so on like 

1004
00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:01,520
that kind of training area where
like the kids are the Bunny 

1005
00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:04,160
hills, just some of the smaller 
ones. 

1006
00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:08,720
But this this last time that we 
went, my 11 year old Aubrey, she

1007
00:53:08,720 --> 00:53:11,520
got a little bit more guts and 
she went out on one of the 

1008
00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:14,760
beginner slopes and we have some
video of that. 

1009
00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:18,080
And it's, it was fun just to see
like how proud she was of 

1010
00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:22,280
herself of being able to go down
the hill by herself and and 

1011
00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:24,360
really enjoy it and want to do 
it again. 

1012
00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:28,040
I think that's really what's 
cool about Massanutten and 

1013
00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:30,920
really all of the people that 
work there too, is that you 

1014
00:53:30,920 --> 00:53:34,120
don't have to be an expert skier
to go there and everybody is 

1015
00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:38,160
just like really helpful. 
I'll I skied when I was growing 

1016
00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:41,600
up but have not been on skis 
like Marissa in like 15 or 20 

1017
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:45,400
years until like these last 
couple of trips and I hesitated 

1018
00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:46,520
getting. 
Off the ski. 

1019
00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:50,720
Lift and did not get off the ski
lift and they were just so nice 

1020
00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:55,320
and helpful of, you know, 
helping me get down from the ski

1021
00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:58,960
lift and on my way. 
And so I think it just kind of 

1022
00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:01,840
goes to show of like, even if 
you're just wanting to try this 

1023
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,600
out or you don't have a ton of 
experience, I think this is 

1024
00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:08,600
really a great place free to go 
to be able to experience that. 

1025
00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:11,160
Maybe do it for the first time 
or if you haven't done it in a 

1026
00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:13,600
long time. 
All of their instructors, all of

1027
00:54:13,600 --> 00:54:16,560
their staff are just so great 
and make it a wonderful 

1028
00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:19,600
experience regardless of your 
experience level. 

1029
00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:22,200
Totally. 
And I definitely just want to 

1030
00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:25,600
highlight what you mentioned 
about the staff and everyone 

1031
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:27,920
that works there. 
We had an just an incredible 

1032
00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:31,680
experience from check in all the
way through the entire time we 

1033
00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:35,560
were there from, you know, wait 
staff in the restaurants, just 

1034
00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:41,560
everyone was was just the the 
hospitality was an amazing, even

1035
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:44,960
exceeding kind of what I think 
we see sometimes in the Disney 

1036
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:48,080
parks and resorts these days, 
because it is something that the

1037
00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:51,640
resort really prides themselves 
on additional things that Amy 

1038
00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:53,160
and I got to explore while we 
were there. 

1039
00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:55,680
You guys were there for some 
other work related stuff, but we

1040
00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:58,200
also, you know, got to explore 
the escape room. 

1041
00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:00,000
Mandy, you joined us for the 
escape room. 

1042
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:03,400
If you want to hear Mandy scream
for at least 10 seconds 

1043
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:08,480
straight, make sure that you 
watch day one vlog video because

1044
00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:12,280
there was AI don't know. 
I caught a jump scare in the in 

1045
00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:16,880
the escape room that we did that
Obviously I had to slow MO down 

1046
00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:19,880
and and make it really dramatic 
for for, for a. 

1047
00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:21,640
Fact, I'm just here for your 
entertainment. 

1048
00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:25,880
Yeah, so we got to do an escape 
room while we were there. 

1049
00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:29,200
Amy and I got to try some of the
spa treatments at the spa. 

1050
00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:30,440
Yeah. 
So that was. 

1051
00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:32,240
One that was, Yeah. 
Now Paul. 

1052
00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:35,400
Paul chose poorly. 
He's just like, I'm going to sit

1053
00:55:35,400 --> 00:55:37,440
in the sauna. 
Well, I thought that's not fun, 

1054
00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:38,800
but. 
I thought like I'm going to be 

1055
00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,480
cold. 
I should want like a hot sauna. 

1056
00:55:42,720 --> 00:55:45,800
But I said you missed out 
because I had a facial and it 

1057
00:55:45,800 --> 00:55:48,640
was the best spot experience of 
my life. 

1058
00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:50,480
I think her name was Kira, I 
said. 

1059
00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:53,680
I say her name in the in the 
video, but it was just such a 

1060
00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:55,920
good. 
I didn't realize how involved 

1061
00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:59,280
the facial was and like she just
did. 

1062
00:55:59,880 --> 00:56:02,560
I just felt so like like a new 
person after it. 

1063
00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:05,240
So I would love to go and do 
that again. 

1064
00:56:05,720 --> 00:56:08,480
And it was very, they have a lot
of different, unique, different 

1065
00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:11,520
ones. 
The one that I did was called 

1066
00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:16,360
the Arctic Berry Facial. 
So the products were actually 

1067
00:56:16,360 --> 00:56:19,400
made with like berries from, 
from, from the Arctic. 

1068
00:56:19,720 --> 00:56:24,120
But yeah, absolutely love that. 
She did like dermaplaning and 

1069
00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:25,560
she kind of like taught me some 
things. 

1070
00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:30,200
I have bought my own dermaplane.
If you saw my my, I don't think 

1071
00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:33,160
so. 
I was like, oh, I do some of 

1072
00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:35,880
this myself. 
But yes, it was it was I. 

1073
00:56:35,880 --> 00:56:37,720
Don't even know what the word 
dermaplane means. 

1074
00:56:37,720 --> 00:56:38,760
Yeah, I didn't think so. 
Well. 

1075
00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:41,960
Your your skin is glowing, Amy, 
and I was noticing that today 

1076
00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:44,480
so. 
That's all the stuff they taught

1077
00:56:44,480 --> 00:56:45,800
me. 
Just all the lights that are on 

1078
00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:48,600
us right now. 
Oh, it was my no. 

1079
00:56:48,600 --> 00:56:50,280
No, no, take. 
Take the dermaplane. 

1080
00:56:52,680 --> 00:56:56,000
You mentioned it. 
You'd mentioned earlier we also 

1081
00:56:56,000 --> 00:56:59,840
got to do a wine tasting to try 
a lot of the Virginia wines that

1082
00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:02,160
were in the surrounding area. 
That was great. 

1083
00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:04,360
I want to see your name was. 
Emily, Yeah. 

1084
00:57:04,720 --> 00:57:08,440
Emily, who led the wine tasting,
She's actually featured in day 

1085
00:57:08,440 --> 00:57:11,760
two of our vlog at Massadutton 
and she talks to us a little bit

1086
00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:14,840
about just the different wines 
in the area. 

1087
00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:18,400
But that was super cool. 
I think it was only like $20 or 

1088
00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:20,200
like. 
Very whatever it was, I remember

1089
00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:22,840
looking at the price going, oh 
wow, that's really reasonable. 

1090
00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:26,560
And and Paul and I, we wanted, 
we wanted to be functionable, so

1091
00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:28,680
we just took little. 
We were there working. 

1092
00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:31,560
So you could, you could, there 
was like a, a thing where you 

1093
00:57:31,560 --> 00:57:34,240
could dump the leftovers and 
rinse your cup out and whatever.

1094
00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:36,200
Yeah. 
And ours was full. 

1095
00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:39,360
And some of these tables were 
very much enjoying their wines. 

1096
00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:42,280
They were, we were looking at us
like, why are you guys not? 

1097
00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:46,320
But and they had, they had like 
a cheese presentation that you 

1098
00:57:46,320 --> 00:57:48,240
could have, you know, you could 
get up and grab. 

1099
00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:51,640
And then you could actually buy 
a bottle of any of the wines 

1100
00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:53,240
and. 
Those were really affordable 

1101
00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:55,880
too. 
Yeah, 15, yeah. $50.20 bucks 

1102
00:57:55,880 --> 00:57:58,000
apiece or so. 
Yeah, per bottle. 

1103
00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:01,120
So that was a great experience 
and they talked about where all 

1104
00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:03,440
the other where, where the 
vineyards and where the wineries

1105
00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:06,400
are in location to Massanut. 
And if you did want to go out 

1106
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:09,960
and explore those further, just 
highlighting a couple other 

1107
00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:12,920
things because you know, again, 
we said it is a four season 

1108
00:58:12,920 --> 00:58:14,680
resort. 
So there's stuff to do all year 

1109
00:58:14,680 --> 00:58:16,400
round. 
We're very excited to go back in

1110
00:58:16,400 --> 00:58:20,120
the summer and in the fall. 
They do a fall foliage tour 

1111
00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:23,560
where you can actually ride the 
ski lift up the mountain when 

1112
00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:27,240
the leaves are changing, which I
think would just be absolutely 

1113
00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:28,120
beautiful. 
That's. 

1114
00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:30,640
Yeah, that's I want. 
That's when I want to go back. 

1115
00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:35,840
Outdoor recreation Amy mentioned
the Mountain Coaster, which 

1116
00:58:35,840 --> 00:58:39,240
should be open I believe later 
this summer or. 

1117
00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:42,400
By this fall and when that 
opens, it is all year round. 

1118
00:58:42,480 --> 00:58:44,200
It will operate in the winter as
well. 

1119
00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:45,760
Yep. 
The Alpine coaster, they're 

1120
00:58:45,760 --> 00:58:47,400
expanding the water park right 
now. 

1121
00:58:47,400 --> 00:58:51,040
So the indoor water park we did,
Amy just kind of walked around 

1122
00:58:51,040 --> 00:58:54,120
at the water park, but I dove 
right in and got on the slides 

1123
00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:57,720
and did all of the slides. 
There are three currently three 

1124
00:58:57,720 --> 00:59:00,520
giant raft slides that you can 
choose from. 

1125
00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:03,840
The one was closed. 
No, the one was not closed. 

1126
00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:05,680
The one you can only do with two
people. 

1127
00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:09,280
And so it was just me, but I 
think that was like the largest 

1128
00:59:09,280 --> 00:59:10,760
one. 
Then there was like a green 

1129
00:59:10,760 --> 00:59:14,360
slide, which I enjoyed the most,
and then a red slide, which is 

1130
00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:17,160
completely in the dark. 
And I did not enjoy not knowing 

1131
00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:19,000
what direction I was going in 
the dark. 

1132
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:21,840
And you get to experience that 
in the vlog video that that we 

1133
00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:24,000
made. 
But really had a good time. 

1134
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:26,000
There's a lazy river that you 
can enjoy. 

1135
00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:31,040
And the, the thing that I just 
edited this video so it keeps 

1136
00:59:31,040 --> 00:59:35,000
coming back to me, we were like 
worried coming in out of the 

1137
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:39,800
cold going into the water park. 
But it's a balmy 85° water park.

1138
00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:44,400
So it is warm. 
And, you know, they also have a 

1139
00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:48,600
flow rider, which is kind of 
like a wave simulator for 

1140
00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:50,440
surfing. 
So if you're familiar, like 

1141
00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:52,880
Royal Caribbean has these on a 
lot of their cruise ships. 

1142
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:55,680
If you're familiar with Royal 
Caribbean cruise line, but also 

1143
00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:58,920
just wanted to highlight 
golfing, hiking out more outdoor

1144
00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:01,240
recreation, any other 
activities. 

1145
01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:03,680
Mandy, Marissa. 
That you or your families have 

1146
01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:05,920
experienced there that you 
wanted to highlight real quick. 

1147
01:00:06,200 --> 01:00:08,960
Yeah, I think that there is like
one thing to go back to like 

1148
01:00:08,960 --> 01:00:12,040
with the water park, there's 
definitely like that indoor 

1149
01:00:12,040 --> 01:00:14,040
element. 
So of course like you can access

1150
01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:17,960
that obviously all all seasons, 
but there's also the outdoor 

1151
01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:20,360
element to the water park. 
So if you are going during the 

1152
01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:24,880
summertime, that really extends 
the activities that you can do. 

1153
01:00:24,880 --> 01:00:29,120
Our kids absolutely love the 
water park and we are actually 

1154
01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:31,440
excited to take them back there 
during the summertime. 

1155
01:00:31,760 --> 01:00:34,360
So they can variance the outdoor
version as well, which they're 

1156
01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:38,600
also expanding and eventually 
going to be opening up a very 

1157
01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:42,200
themed hotel right there that 
would connect to the water park.

1158
01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:44,480
So like Paul had mentioned 
earlier, they're always 

1159
01:00:44,480 --> 01:00:46,600
expanding and looking for new 
opportunities. 

1160
01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:49,760
I think some of the other things
that they have that are really 

1161
01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:53,200
cool right there on Massena and 
property are they do have a lot 

1162
01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:57,280
of like parks and hiking trails,
which are nice from like 

1163
01:00:57,280 --> 01:00:59,280
beginner to more advanced 
levels. 

1164
01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:02,360
So really it's something that, 
you know, all of the members of 

1165
01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:04,520
the family could do. 
They have fishing there. 

1166
01:01:05,120 --> 01:01:09,720
They also have mountain biking 
trails there as well. 

1167
01:01:09,720 --> 01:01:12,480
And so my husband loves to 
mountain bike, so that's 

1168
01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:14,960
something that he really enjoys 
doing there as well. 

1169
01:01:14,960 --> 01:01:17,240
So there's a lot of things to 
do. 

1170
01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:20,560
And then just going back to the 
activities, like I know that you

1171
01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:23,520
guys talked about wine tasting, 
but they do a lot of other 

1172
01:01:23,520 --> 01:01:27,120
activities there too. 
I know that sometimes like 

1173
01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:30,760
during like ski season, they 
have outdoor DJs. 

1174
01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:32,920
So they have like different DJs 
that come out and we'll be 

1175
01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:34,960
playing on the slopes on certain
days. 

1176
01:01:35,320 --> 01:01:40,400
They do like a silent disco 
elevations lounge, which Marissa

1177
01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:43,160
kind of talked about as well. 
Like I know they do some bourbon

1178
01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:45,680
tastings there. 
They also have a comedy show 

1179
01:01:45,680 --> 01:01:48,040
that plays there during certain 
times of the week. 

1180
01:01:48,680 --> 01:01:54,400
So they have a lot of different 
activities and just events and 

1181
01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:57,440
festivals that they have like 
farmers market, things like that

1182
01:01:57,440 --> 01:01:59,280
during like the spring and 
summer as well. 

1183
01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:02,560
So there's a lot of 
opportunities. 

1184
01:02:02,560 --> 01:02:06,880
I know that during like the 
spring, the summer and the fall,

1185
01:02:06,880 --> 01:02:11,920
they also have a nice kind of 
activity area where they have go

1186
01:02:11,920 --> 01:02:16,000
karts, they have bumper cars, 
they have a putt putt, the mini 

1187
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:17,960
golf. 
Do people say putt putt anymore?

1188
01:02:17,960 --> 01:02:19,000
I don't know. 
Mini golf, say. 

1189
01:02:19,840 --> 01:02:21,840
Putt, Putt, yeah. 
So. 

1190
01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:24,040
Coming that too. 
OK, good. 

1191
01:02:24,040 --> 01:02:26,120
I'm glad I'm not the only one. 
I was like, oh, is that, is that

1192
01:02:26,160 --> 01:02:29,200
a thing? 
But but yeah, so there there's a

1193
01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:32,640
lot of activities I think just 
outside of. 

1194
01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:34,720
The. 
Pickleball is a big one. 

1195
01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:39,000
Right, right now, right, and a 
few others that I don't think 

1196
01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:41,480
you mentioned, they offer a 
street curling. 

1197
01:02:42,240 --> 01:02:47,560
They also have horseback riding,
carriage rides, river 

1198
01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:49,840
adventures. 
So they remember the guy that 

1199
01:02:50,120 --> 01:02:52,960
that showed us different rooms 
talked about how they partner 

1200
01:02:52,960 --> 01:02:57,480
with other what's the word I'm 
looking for like vendors group 

1201
01:02:57,480 --> 01:03:00,120
or providers. 
And so like their river 

1202
01:03:00,120 --> 01:03:02,240
adventures are offered through 
Massenet and river Adventures, 

1203
01:03:02,240 --> 01:03:04,360
which is their partner. 
So they have things like 

1204
01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:07,920
kayaking and canoeing and tubing
on the river. 

1205
01:03:08,480 --> 01:03:10,760
So there's there's a lot, a lot 
of activities. 

1206
01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:14,120
And yeah, just like how your 
Disney resort will have crafts 

1207
01:03:14,120 --> 01:03:17,080
and things like that, they offer
stuff like that as well. 

1208
01:03:17,320 --> 01:03:19,920
Coming to you in the summer. 
All four of us will be on a 

1209
01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:22,960
whitewater raft together, 
rafting, careening. 

1210
01:03:25,080 --> 01:03:26,840
But raft. 
Is going to need a bigger 

1211
01:03:26,840 --> 01:03:31,000
insurance policy, but Marissa, 
any other activities that that 

1212
01:03:31,200 --> 01:03:32,640
you or your family got to 
experience. 

1213
01:03:33,400 --> 01:03:37,240
No, we, we, we stopped to the, 
the snow activities and then the

1214
01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:40,480
water park we did, my son did 
the flow rider and he quite 

1215
01:03:40,480 --> 01:03:43,320
enjoyed that. 
They actually have flow rider 

1216
01:03:43,320 --> 01:03:45,800
lessons too. 
So if you wanted to do like 

1217
01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:48,520
private lessons and learn how to
do tricks and stuff, they do 

1218
01:03:48,520 --> 01:03:50,800
those in the morning. 
So that was something cool that 

1219
01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:53,920
I noticed as well. 
Yeah, it just seems like there's

1220
01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:56,600
all kinds of things and we only 
like touch the tip of the 

1221
01:03:56,600 --> 01:03:58,920
iceberg, literally when we were 
there. 

1222
01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:02,520
Now we're kind of just four 
grown adults here talking about 

1223
01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:06,360
this very family, family 
friendly, all inclusive resort. 

1224
01:04:06,560 --> 01:04:10,520
So we thought that as part of 
kind of this special episode, we

1225
01:04:10,520 --> 01:04:14,560
would turn this over to a little
bit of a younger generation and 

1226
01:04:14,560 --> 01:04:19,680
get a kids perspective on what 
they enjoyed and what they loved

1227
01:04:19,680 --> 01:04:22,400
about Massa Nuttin. 
All right. 

1228
01:04:22,480 --> 01:04:26,480
Well, let's welcome our Key 
Holder kids to the segment. 

1229
01:04:26,800 --> 01:04:30,880
We have some of the kids of Key 
Holder Vacation joining us for 

1230
01:04:30,880 --> 01:04:34,760
this part of the episode to talk
about their time at Massanutten,

1231
01:04:34,760 --> 01:04:38,520
Virginia. 
So let's start with you, Aubrey.

1232
01:04:38,640 --> 01:04:44,240
Can you tell us how old you are 
and who you're related to in the

1233
01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:47,960
company? 
My name is Aubrey and I'm eleven

1234
01:04:47,960 --> 01:04:53,280
years old and my mom is AVP of 
Marketing. 

1235
01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:55,520
What's her name? 
Mandy. 

1236
01:04:56,520 --> 01:04:58,640
Awesome. 
Thanks, Aubrey. 

1237
01:04:58,920 --> 01:05:02,360
All right, Alex. 
Can you tell us your age and who

1238
01:05:02,360 --> 01:05:04,000
you're? 
Related to in the company. 

1239
01:05:04,400 --> 01:05:12,000
Yes, I'm 11 3/4 and I'm related 
to CEO, right? 

1240
01:05:12,920 --> 01:05:15,680
And what is his name? 
Nick. 

1241
01:05:16,400 --> 01:05:19,760
Awesome. 
And then we have Kaden sitting 

1242
01:05:19,760 --> 01:05:21,920
here. 
So Kaden, tell us how old you 

1243
01:05:21,920 --> 01:05:25,200
are and who you're related to. 
I'm 8 and I don't know who I'm 

1244
01:05:25,240 --> 01:05:30,920
related to. 
Hilarious we have the class 

1245
01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:37,080
clown of the group over here. 
Kaden is my son, so we have a 

1246
01:05:37,080 --> 01:05:40,080
fun group. 
This was just a portion of our 

1247
01:05:40,080 --> 01:05:43,880
kids crew that was up there from
Key Holder vacations and they 

1248
01:05:43,880 --> 01:05:45,760
had a great time while they were
up there. 

1249
01:05:45,760 --> 01:05:49,000
So what we wanted to do is ask 
you guys kind of a few questions

1250
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:52,400
because we know that the 
Massanutt Resort brings in a lot

1251
01:05:52,400 --> 01:05:55,760
of families, right? 
And we also know that you guys 

1252
01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:59,200
do a lot of time at Disney. 
So we wanted to get a feel from 

1253
01:05:59,200 --> 01:06:01,400
kids who'd spend a lot of time 
at Disney. 

1254
01:06:01,520 --> 01:06:04,440
What you liked about the 
Massanutt Resort. 

1255
01:06:04,440 --> 01:06:08,160
So if it's OK with all of you, 
I'm going to ask you some 

1256
01:06:08,160 --> 01:06:11,160
questions about your vacation at
Massanutten. 

1257
01:06:11,240 --> 01:06:13,600
Does that sound good? 
Yeah. 

1258
01:06:14,040 --> 01:06:16,680
OK, let's go. 
All right, I'm going to start 

1259
01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:22,480
with you on this question, Alex.
So what was the very first thing

1260
01:06:22,920 --> 01:06:25,960
that you wanted to do when you 
arrived to Massanutten? 

1261
01:06:26,480 --> 01:06:30,000
Play in the snow. 
Oh, that's a good one, Ivory. 

1262
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:33,360
What about you? 
The very first thing I wanted to

1263
01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:39,360
do when we got to Massenet in 
was GO and snow tube all day. 

1264
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:43,960
Snow tube all day. 
Yeah, that's like a good thing 

1265
01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:47,040
to do All right, Kaden, you're 
up What was the first thing you 

1266
01:06:47,040 --> 01:06:48,200
wanted to do when you got there?
I. 

1267
01:06:48,240 --> 01:06:53,200
Wanted to go sliding down or the
hill down up on the side of the 

1268
01:06:53,240 --> 01:06:55,680
house. 
Yep, and he sure did. 

1269
01:06:56,360 --> 01:06:58,080
We'll have to put in some 
pictures there. 

1270
01:06:58,080 --> 01:06:59,800
And the girls were nodding 
because they saw him. 

1271
01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:02,880
You couldn't miss him. 
He was sliding, which is one of 

1272
01:07:02,880 --> 01:07:05,560
the cool things about the the 
townhouses that we stayed in 

1273
01:07:05,560 --> 01:07:07,480
there. 
They had some hills there and 

1274
01:07:07,480 --> 01:07:11,240
there was a lot of icy snow. 
So the kids had lots of fun kind

1275
01:07:11,240 --> 01:07:14,200
of sliding around right there 
without even leaving where we 

1276
01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:17,840
were staying. 
All right, so Aubrey, I'm going 

1277
01:07:17,840 --> 01:07:19,760
to start with you. 
What was your favorite thing you

1278
01:07:19,760 --> 01:07:23,760
did all week? 
My favorite thing that I did all

1279
01:07:23,760 --> 01:07:30,600
week was probably snow tubing 
and skiing. 

1280
01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:34,120
You did a great job skiing. 
That was your second time, 

1281
01:07:34,120 --> 01:07:35,200
right? 
Yeah. 

1282
01:07:36,160 --> 01:07:38,600
We did awesome because you got 
on the Big Lift and you made it 

1283
01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:40,760
all down. 
Did you fall at all on your 

1284
01:07:40,760 --> 01:07:44,120
first time on the Big Lift? 
I fell twice and I always fell 

1285
01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:48,400
off the side of the hill. 
But you did pretty good this 

1286
01:07:48,400 --> 01:07:50,200
one, we were yelling pizza 
pizza. 

1287
01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:51,880
The. 
Whole way down. 

1288
01:07:52,120 --> 01:07:54,960
So a bit of a different 
experience for this one over 

1289
01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:57,080
here. 
Alex, what was your favorite 

1290
01:07:57,080 --> 01:08:00,920
thing of the whole week? 
It was either building a snow 

1291
01:08:00,920 --> 01:08:04,600
port or snow tubing. 
Oh yeah, that was pretty good. 

1292
01:08:05,160 --> 01:08:07,000
Kaden, what about you? 
What was your favorite part? 

1293
01:08:07,240 --> 01:08:10,560
Tackling Alex, Snow and snow. 
But you. 

1294
01:08:11,480 --> 01:08:13,520
Can tell here, come closer to me
a little bit. 

1295
01:08:13,760 --> 01:08:17,120
You can tell that Kaden and Alex
are from Florida and they don't 

1296
01:08:17,120 --> 01:08:20,560
get to see snow often. 
So I think any snow experience 

1297
01:08:20,560 --> 01:08:25,399
for them was like the best ever.
Kaden, when you were there, was 

1298
01:08:25,399 --> 01:08:29,080
there anything that made you 
say, whoa, that was awesome. 

1299
01:08:30,520 --> 01:08:33,600
The sled. 
I'm down the side of the house. 

1300
01:08:33,920 --> 01:08:35,640
That and then what about the 
snow tubing? 

1301
01:08:37,080 --> 01:08:40,880
That's pretty awesome, right? 
Did you scream at all during the

1302
01:08:40,880 --> 01:08:44,160
snow tubing? 
We actually had a bet to see. 

1303
01:08:44,359 --> 01:08:46,120
And. 
Either one of us would scream 

1304
01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:49,479
going down, and he won. 
I lost all the money in the 

1305
01:08:49,479 --> 01:08:52,240
world, all right. 
What about you? 

1306
01:08:52,800 --> 01:08:55,600
Aubrey, was there anything that 
made you say whoa, that was 

1307
01:08:55,760 --> 01:08:59,040
awesome. 
The probably the really only 

1308
01:08:59,040 --> 01:09:06,080
thing that made me say whoa was 
that I when I went down snow the

1309
01:09:06,120 --> 01:09:11,680
hill for snow tuning I was just 
spinning in circles for like 2 

1310
01:09:11,680 --> 01:09:16,479
of them. 
That's pretty cool, Alex. 

1311
01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:19,000
What was your Whoa that was 
awesome moment. 

1312
01:09:19,640 --> 01:09:22,520
Everything. 
Everything that's pretty 

1313
01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:25,800
impressive, I will say. 
Kaden, what did you say once we 

1314
01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:27,960
left there? 
What did you ask if we where we 

1315
01:09:27,960 --> 01:09:29,319
could move? 
Here. 

1316
01:09:29,760 --> 01:09:30,960
To where? 
Virginia. 

1317
01:09:31,240 --> 01:09:33,720
To Virginia, Kaden wanted to 
move to Massanutten. 

1318
01:09:33,720 --> 01:09:36,200
After we left, he asked if we 
could go and move there. 

1319
01:09:36,200 --> 01:09:39,840
So everything is a is a good 
answer because it definitely has

1320
01:09:39,840 --> 01:09:44,359
so many fun things to do. 
Alex, if your best friends were 

1321
01:09:44,359 --> 01:09:47,080
coming to Massanutten tomorrow, 
what would you tell them Is the 

1322
01:09:47,080 --> 01:09:51,439
one thing they cannot miss. 
Skiing, even though I missed it 

1323
01:09:51,439 --> 01:09:53,160
this time, but I did it a few 
years ago. 

1324
01:09:53,840 --> 01:09:55,800
All right, so that's not to be 
mixed. 

1325
01:09:55,800 --> 01:10:00,600
Miss for next time then, huh? 
Kaden, what is one thing you 

1326
01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:02,320
would tell your best friend not 
to miss? 

1327
01:10:02,680 --> 01:10:05,440
I'm going head first down the 
hill. 

1328
01:10:05,440 --> 01:10:07,880
Head first down the hill, 
Aubrey, what about you? 

1329
01:10:09,760 --> 01:10:13,880
I would definitely tell my 
friend to do first. 

1330
01:10:14,520 --> 01:10:23,640
Probably do no tubing or skiing.
1st, I like those skiing. 

1331
01:10:23,640 --> 01:10:25,240
It sounds like it's a pretty 
popular one. 

1332
01:10:25,240 --> 01:10:27,360
What did you think about skiing?
Is that a not to be missed? 

1333
01:10:27,600 --> 01:10:32,400
It's pretty cool. 
OK, So what was better than what

1334
01:10:32,400 --> 01:10:34,720
you expected? 
Was there anything that like you

1335
01:10:34,720 --> 01:10:36,200
went and you're like, oh, that 
could be OK. 

1336
01:10:36,200 --> 01:10:38,880
And then you were like, wow, 
that was really awesome. 

1337
01:10:39,240 --> 01:10:41,680
Aubrey, was there anything 
better than you expected? 

1338
01:10:42,440 --> 01:10:47,600
I thought the water park was 
going to be OK, but then when I 

1339
01:10:47,600 --> 01:10:53,520
got there it was this like, wow,
it's big and really cool. 

1340
01:10:54,640 --> 01:10:57,760
And that's coming from a DVC 
member right there, right? 

1341
01:10:57,760 --> 01:11:01,160
Aubrey, you've done a lot of 
Disney stays, so that's pretty 

1342
01:11:01,160 --> 01:11:03,440
impressive that that was better 
than you expected. 

1343
01:11:03,880 --> 01:11:05,800
Kaden, what about you? 
What was better than you 

1344
01:11:05,800 --> 01:11:09,000
expected? 
The skiing. 

1345
01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:12,000
The skiing, yeah, I think that's
a good answer for sure. 

1346
01:11:12,520 --> 01:11:15,240
And Alex, what was for you 
better than you expected? 

1347
01:11:15,920 --> 01:11:19,680
Ice skating. 
Oh, ah, you got to ice skating, 

1348
01:11:20,120 --> 01:11:22,120
I think. 
Did you ice skate at all, 

1349
01:11:22,120 --> 01:11:24,160
Aubrey? 
No. 

1350
01:11:24,760 --> 01:11:26,920
Alex, I think you're the only 
one that ice skated in the 

1351
01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:29,320
group. 
How did you feel about ice 

1352
01:11:29,320 --> 01:11:30,880
skating there? 
Was it pretty cool? 

1353
01:11:33,280 --> 01:11:35,600
Yeah, it was. 
Had you ice skated before or was

1354
01:11:35,600 --> 01:11:39,600
this your first time? 
I've ice skated before early 

1355
01:11:39,640 --> 01:11:41,520
like a couple years ago when I 
went. 

1356
01:11:42,080 --> 01:11:44,840
Was it hard to do or did you 
pick it up pretty easily? 

1357
01:11:45,320 --> 01:11:48,200
The first time I was hard, but 
then I went back this year and 

1358
01:11:48,200 --> 01:11:50,760
it was a lot easier. 
That's awesome. 

1359
01:11:50,800 --> 01:11:55,240
I like that answer for sure. 
What would make you come back 

1360
01:11:55,240 --> 01:11:56,120
again? 
Kaden? 

1361
01:11:56,120 --> 01:11:58,720
What would make you come back 
Sliding head? 

1362
01:11:58,800 --> 01:12:03,120
I mean, all this kid needs is a 
place to slide head 1st and snow

1363
01:12:03,120 --> 01:12:05,400
and snow. 
OK. 

1364
01:12:05,560 --> 01:12:08,800
All right, Alex, what would make
you want to come back? 

1365
01:12:09,320 --> 01:12:12,920
Build a bigger snow Fort. 
Build a big I like that one too.

1366
01:12:13,280 --> 01:12:17,800
Aubrey, what about you? 
If I could come back again I 

1367
01:12:17,800 --> 01:12:20,920
would probably just do snow 
tubing a lot. 

1368
01:12:21,720 --> 01:12:24,720
I agree, I think I could have 
done like 2 more days of snow 

1369
01:12:24,720 --> 01:12:27,640
tubing. 
And you would have lost all. 

1370
01:12:27,760 --> 01:12:29,440
And I would have lost all the 
money because I would have 

1371
01:12:29,440 --> 01:12:32,320
screamed all the way down and 
lost all the bets. 

1372
01:12:33,840 --> 01:12:37,720
Okay, so since we have the 
Disney, I would say you guys are

1373
01:12:37,720 --> 01:12:39,720
probably like Disney experts in 
this group. 

1374
01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:42,520
Would you would you agree 
between the three of you, you're

1375
01:12:42,520 --> 01:12:46,160
pretty much got Disney down. 
OK, so This is why we wanted to 

1376
01:12:46,160 --> 01:12:48,560
have you on the show, because 
between all three of you, we 

1377
01:12:48,560 --> 01:12:52,000
have some important questions to
ask you about the comparison of 

1378
01:12:52,000 --> 01:12:55,200
Disney and Massanutten. 
All right, you ready for this? 

1379
01:12:55,800 --> 01:12:57,960
Yeah. 
All right, I'm going to start 

1380
01:12:57,960 --> 01:13:01,080
with you, Aubrey. 
If Massanutten was a Disney 

1381
01:13:01,080 --> 01:13:04,520
park, what kind of land would it
be? 

1382
01:13:05,920 --> 01:13:11,600
If Massanutten was a Disney 
park, I would say it would be 

1383
01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:21,320
probably more of like a snowy 
theme, so more like Frozen 

1384
01:13:21,440 --> 01:13:24,560
Frozen. 
Oh, maybe like a frozen land? 

1385
01:13:25,680 --> 01:13:27,600
That'd be cool. 
Alex, what do you think? 

1386
01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:30,040
What could be a cool land that 
Massanutten could be? 

1387
01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:33,640
The same as Audrey Snowland. 
Frozen. 

1388
01:13:35,000 --> 01:13:37,800
Kaden's same is. 
The same same. 

1389
01:13:37,800 --> 01:13:39,520
So we're. 
Saying it's gonna be our snow 

1390
01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:41,040
land. 
Kind of frozen land. 

1391
01:13:41,040 --> 01:13:41,880
I like it. 
I like it. 

1392
01:13:41,880 --> 01:13:42,520
What? 
Sports. 

1393
01:13:42,960 --> 01:13:46,400
With with sports. 
OK, it could be like a Blizzard 

1394
01:13:46,400 --> 01:13:50,120
beach land, right? 
Like the water party, but in 

1395
01:13:50,120 --> 01:13:54,120
real life. 
What Disney character? 

1396
01:13:54,120 --> 01:13:56,800
Now, this might be an easy one. 
Kaden, I'm gonna ask you first 

1397
01:13:56,880 --> 01:14:00,360
on this one. 
What Disney character would love

1398
01:14:00,360 --> 01:14:03,040
Massinutton and why? 
No. 

1399
01:14:03,200 --> 01:14:04,440
Clue. 
No clue. 

1400
01:14:05,880 --> 01:14:08,960
All right, help him out, Alex. 
What Disney character would love

1401
01:14:08,960 --> 01:14:10,920
Massinon? 
Wait, I think I know. 

1402
01:14:11,640 --> 01:14:13,920
We're jumping back in. 
All right, one more, One more 

1403
01:14:13,920 --> 01:14:16,000
chance for you, Kate, and one 
more chance, and then we're 

1404
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:18,040
moving on. 
OK. 

1405
01:14:18,040 --> 01:14:22,120
I like it, Alex. 
Anyone who would love Massinon? 

1406
01:14:22,920 --> 01:14:26,040
Snow White because there was a 
lot of deer and she likes 

1407
01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:29,280
animals. 
Oh, that was a very clever 

1408
01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:34,040
answer, Aubrey, What about you? 
I think it would have been Olaf.

1409
01:14:34,400 --> 01:14:38,480
That would have been my pick. 
Well, which one was it? 

1410
01:14:38,800 --> 01:14:40,880
There's no right answer. 
They're all right. 

1411
01:14:41,560 --> 01:14:43,600
Couldn't you imagine all of 
those characters there? 

1412
01:14:44,320 --> 01:14:47,120
I could see all of those 
characters being there, that's 

1413
01:14:47,120 --> 01:14:51,000
for sure. 
Did anything at Mass Nuton feel 

1414
01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:55,800
as exciting as a Disney ride? 
Aubrey here, get to go first on 

1415
01:14:55,800 --> 01:15:00,080
this one. 
I thought the skiing was 

1416
01:15:00,080 --> 01:15:06,840
probably as fun as a Disney 
ride, including the snow tubing.

1417
01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:10,080
Alex, what about you? 
What was this fun as a Disney 

1418
01:15:10,080 --> 01:15:12,560
ride to you? 
The snow tubing as a. 

1419
01:15:13,400 --> 01:15:15,400
OK, Kaden. 
The water slide. 

1420
01:15:15,560 --> 01:15:17,320
The water, that's a good one. 
Yeah. 

1421
01:15:17,320 --> 01:15:19,040
Those are all really, really 
good ones. 

1422
01:15:19,040 --> 01:15:23,040
And I would have to agree. 
The snow tubing to me, like, it 

1423
01:15:23,320 --> 01:15:27,160
gave me butterflies similar to 
maybe like a Tower of Terror 

1424
01:15:27,160 --> 01:15:30,480
was. 
And I screamed a lot. 

1425
01:15:31,040 --> 01:15:33,680
I also think that the water 
slide was pretty cool, too. 

1426
01:15:34,160 --> 01:15:38,240
OK, so Alex, this is for you. 
What would you tell a Disney 

1427
01:15:38,240 --> 01:15:41,480
family about why they should try
Massinutton? 

1428
01:15:42,440 --> 01:15:46,360
Well it depends if they have 
kids, what age group their kids 

1429
01:15:46,360 --> 01:15:50,760
are in and I would mainly say 
because it gives people who 

1430
01:15:50,760 --> 01:15:55,040
don't see snow a lot an 
opportunity to see snow and also

1431
01:15:55,600 --> 01:15:59,200
it has a lot of fun stuff. 
What about you, Aubrey? 

1432
01:15:59,200 --> 01:16:00,960
What would you tell a Disney 
family? 

1433
01:16:01,760 --> 01:16:05,960
I would tell a Disney family to 
definitely do snow tubing 

1434
01:16:05,960 --> 01:16:10,440
because it's a lot like slinky 
dog and how fast we're going and

1435
01:16:10,440 --> 01:16:14,160
also like the teacups. 
Yeah, that's a really good one. 

1436
01:16:14,680 --> 01:16:18,720
OK, It's Mickey. 
Oh, did I skip you? 

1437
01:16:19,240 --> 01:16:22,320
Oh goodness. 
Kaden. 

1438
01:16:22,640 --> 01:16:27,200
The same as Alan. 
Skip you, huh? 

1439
01:16:28,840 --> 01:16:31,600
OK. 
It's Mickey planned a vacation 

1440
01:16:31,600 --> 01:16:34,520
here. 
What would be on his must do 

1441
01:16:34,520 --> 01:16:36,160
list? 
What would Mickey love to do 

1442
01:16:36,160 --> 01:16:37,800
with? 
We'll start with you, Kaden, I 

1443
01:16:37,800 --> 01:16:39,640
think. 
Maybe ice skate? 

1444
01:16:40,080 --> 01:16:41,280
OK. 
I think that's good. 

1445
01:16:41,280 --> 01:16:45,520
Or the water slide. 
Yeah, Alex, what do you think? 

1446
01:16:48,640 --> 01:16:52,480
Skiing. 
I could see Mickey skiing for 

1447
01:16:52,480 --> 01:16:54,800
sure. 
Aubrey, what do you think? 

1448
01:16:55,480 --> 01:16:58,600
Definitely skiing. 
I like it. 

1449
01:16:59,280 --> 01:17:03,320
Is Masamaten more like a water 
park day at Disney or something 

1450
01:17:03,320 --> 01:17:05,840
totally different? 
What do you think, Alex? 

1451
01:17:11,600 --> 01:17:13,280
I would say something totally 
different. 

1452
01:17:13,720 --> 01:17:18,280
Yeah, same, same, Aubrey. 
Totally different. 

1453
01:17:18,720 --> 01:17:20,960
Makes this vacation. 
What do you guys think Makes 

1454
01:17:20,960 --> 01:17:24,600
this vacation totally different?
You can answer anybody can 

1455
01:17:24,600 --> 01:17:27,640
answer this one. 
Like there's snow's way 

1456
01:17:27,640 --> 01:17:28,880
different. 
Yeah. 

1457
01:17:29,120 --> 01:17:31,160
And then there's only one 
character there. 

1458
01:17:31,400 --> 01:17:34,160
There's a many characters. 
Yeah, that's true. 

1459
01:17:34,160 --> 01:17:37,080
We did see one character there. 
What do you guys think? 

1460
01:17:37,640 --> 01:17:40,440
What makes it totally different 
for this type of vacation? 

1461
01:17:41,560 --> 01:17:46,480
The snow, the snaggy. 
Yeah, definitely the snow and 

1462
01:17:46,480 --> 01:17:48,640
the how there's only one 
character. 

1463
01:17:49,640 --> 01:17:55,640
Well, the yes and but what did 
you guys think about the food 

1464
01:17:55,640 --> 01:17:57,800
when you were there? 
I saw all of you guys get some 

1465
01:17:57,800 --> 01:18:00,640
pretty cool drinks. 
You want to talk about those? 

1466
01:18:00,800 --> 01:18:06,160
I forgot what I call you. 
What did you have that you love 

1467
01:18:06,160 --> 01:18:07,480
to eat while you're there, 
Aubrey? 

1468
01:18:08,040 --> 01:18:12,720
I thought that what was really 
good there was definitely the 

1469
01:18:12,720 --> 01:18:16,240
drink that was the Strawberry 
Shortcake. 

1470
01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:20,080
That was looked so good. 
Alex, what was your favorite 

1471
01:18:20,080 --> 01:18:21,840
thing to eat or drink while you 
were there? 

1472
01:18:22,320 --> 01:18:23,240
The hot. 
Cocoa. 

1473
01:18:23,640 --> 01:18:28,280
It was, yeah, incredible. 
Same hot cocoa. 

1474
01:18:28,520 --> 01:18:30,040
Yes. 
What? 

1475
01:18:30,440 --> 01:18:34,240
Now, I know snow was kind of a 
big different type of vacation, 

1476
01:18:34,480 --> 01:18:38,040
but what else was different in 
terms of like what you're used 

1477
01:18:38,040 --> 01:18:40,320
to with Disney? 
So what else stood out to you 

1478
01:18:40,320 --> 01:18:43,560
that you really enjoyed? 
That you were like, that was a 

1479
01:18:43,560 --> 01:18:46,440
little different than my normal 
vacations, Aubrey. 

1480
01:18:49,360 --> 01:18:56,240
Honestly, maybe the water park. 
Yeah, what about you, Alan? 

1481
01:18:57,400 --> 01:19:01,080
I agree with Aubrey, an indoor 
water park is really cool. 

1482
01:19:01,640 --> 01:19:04,160
Kaden Skiing. 
Skiing. 

1483
01:19:04,400 --> 01:19:09,560
Yeah, well, I sure enjoyed. 
Talking to all of you guys about

1484
01:19:09,560 --> 01:19:11,680
your trip and I. 
Think we should all plan because

1485
01:19:11,680 --> 01:19:14,000
you guys had so much fun, all 
three of you together. 

1486
01:19:14,520 --> 01:19:16,080
I have some pictures to prove 
it. 

1487
01:19:17,560 --> 01:19:20,200
I think we should plan another 
trip to all go there together. 

1488
01:19:20,200 --> 01:19:23,080
What do you guys think? 
Yeah, we will. 

1489
01:19:23,120 --> 01:19:26,560
We finish this off. 
Is there one thing you want to 

1490
01:19:26,560 --> 01:19:29,040
add for families listening to 
have young kids? 

1491
01:19:29,040 --> 01:19:31,920
Is there anything you want to 
tell them about Mass Nuttin as a

1492
01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:39,000
vacation, Alex? 
That like, there's always 

1493
01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:42,560
something to do. 
I love it, Aubrey. 

1494
01:19:42,560 --> 01:19:47,840
You want to add anything else? 
Not really, I can't really think

1495
01:19:47,840 --> 01:19:50,760
of any. 
No, I heard you got to do lots 

1496
01:19:50,760 --> 01:19:52,520
of crafts and stuff too while 
you were there. 

1497
01:19:52,640 --> 01:19:55,320
Like make the. 
Shirt you're wearing yeah, 

1498
01:19:55,320 --> 01:19:59,560
that's. 
Pretty awesome and Kaden. 

1499
01:19:59,560 --> 01:20:01,800
Anything. 
Nothing to add. 

1500
01:20:02,600 --> 01:20:05,640
Wear warm clothes, right? 
No, it's not cold. 

1501
01:20:08,200 --> 01:20:10,720
Some reason I feel like it's 
colder here when there's cold 

1502
01:20:10,720 --> 01:20:13,240
days, but it's hotter there when
it's cold. 

1503
01:20:13,280 --> 01:20:15,880
All right, well then don't be 
intimidated by the cold, because

1504
01:20:15,880 --> 01:20:17,640
it's not, apparently. 
Not that cold. 

1505
01:20:17,960 --> 01:20:22,800
And in the snow, please. 
Remember, I was with no gloves. 

1506
01:20:23,160 --> 01:20:25,080
No gloves? 
Yeah. 

1507
01:20:25,480 --> 01:20:29,080
Yep. 
Well I can't wait for our trip 

1508
01:20:29,080 --> 01:20:31,480
to go back. 
Thank you guys for joining us 

1509
01:20:31,480 --> 01:20:33,400
and thank you for all your great
tips. 

1510
01:20:33,400 --> 01:20:36,160
I can't wait to hear what people
think about bringing their kids 

1511
01:20:36,160 --> 01:20:39,440
to Massanaten and I have a 
feeling that you guys might be 

1512
01:20:39,440 --> 01:20:41,480
the reason that they get to 
bring their kids and family 

1513
01:20:41,480 --> 01:20:45,160
with. 
Thank you so much for hosting 

1514
01:20:45,160 --> 01:20:49,200
that segment and I'll say 
wrangling the children for us. 

1515
01:20:49,440 --> 01:20:52,280
Amy and I know how to talk to 
our dogs like children, but it 

1516
01:20:52,320 --> 01:20:54,800
feels like anytime we actually 
talk with children, we're not 

1517
01:20:54,880 --> 01:20:58,720
100% sure what to say. 
So, so that was great. 

1518
01:20:58,720 --> 01:21:00,600
Although in hindsight, I feel 
like we should have maybe had 

1519
01:21:00,600 --> 01:21:04,040
Derek involved in some capacity 
because he's like a child at 

1520
01:21:04,040 --> 01:21:06,520
heart. 
So although I'm not quite sure 

1521
01:21:06,520 --> 01:21:08,680
that we would have actually 
gotten any functional content 

1522
01:21:08,680 --> 01:21:12,000
out of out of doing so, but we 
do have to, we do need to get 

1523
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:14,920
Derek and Jeff out to 
Massanutten in the relatively 

1524
01:21:14,920 --> 01:21:18,320
near future so that they can 
experience what this has to 

1525
01:21:18,320 --> 01:21:21,440
offer. 
Also, if you are a DVC member 

1526
01:21:21,440 --> 01:21:25,680
and you are looking to we've 
we've sparked your interest, 

1527
01:21:25,680 --> 01:21:29,080
you're looking to maybe use your
points and take a trip to the 

1528
01:21:29,080 --> 01:21:32,640
Massanutten Resort, head to DVC 
rental store. 

1529
01:21:32,640 --> 01:21:35,960
As I mentioned previously in the
video, you can now swap your 

1530
01:21:35,960 --> 01:21:39,920
vacation points for a stay at 
the Massanutten resort. 

1531
01:21:40,600 --> 01:21:44,200
And there's a lot of flexibility
that Massanutten provides as 

1532
01:21:44,200 --> 01:21:47,000
compared to some of our other 
swap options. 

1533
01:21:47,000 --> 01:21:49,920
You know what Disney cruise when
you're swapping your for a 

1534
01:21:49,920 --> 01:21:52,560
Disney cruise, pricing needs to 
be locked in. 

1535
01:21:52,560 --> 01:21:57,200
I think it's like 120 days or 
more before you're actually 

1536
01:21:57,840 --> 01:22:01,200
checking in for that cruise 
vacation. 

1537
01:22:01,200 --> 01:22:04,280
And so Massonutton has a lot 
more flexibility with their 

1538
01:22:04,280 --> 01:22:08,120
cancellation policies with those
timelines that we can offer, 

1539
01:22:08,520 --> 01:22:11,320
which is awesome. 
And put together just a couple 

1540
01:22:11,320 --> 01:22:15,480
different examples of kind of 
what a stay at Massonutton would

1541
01:22:15,480 --> 01:22:17,840
look like. 
So first, I I kind of build out 

1542
01:22:17,840 --> 01:22:22,600
what I called a week long summer
vacation at Massanutten for this

1543
01:22:22,600 --> 01:22:26,360
coming July in 2020. 
Sixth, this was in that Summit 2

1544
01:22:26,360 --> 01:22:28,720
bedroom premium townhouse 
accommodation. 

1545
01:22:28,960 --> 01:22:31,400
That accommodation also had a 
Jacuzzi tub like the one that 

1546
01:22:31,400 --> 01:22:37,240
Amy and I stayed in. 
But $1974.37 for an entire week 

1547
01:22:37,240 --> 01:22:41,960
long stay, that equates to 
around 123 points using kind of 

1548
01:22:41,960 --> 01:22:45,040
an average price per point of 
around $16.00 per point as the 

1549
01:22:45,040 --> 01:22:46,720
value you'd be getting for your 
points. 

1550
01:22:46,960 --> 01:22:51,520
So very reasonable that for that
those accommodations only, I did

1551
01:22:51,520 --> 01:22:54,920
a four night fall weekend 
getaway at the Woodstone 

1552
01:22:54,920 --> 01:22:57,800
Meadows, which is where Amy and 
I stayed in that same one 

1553
01:22:57,800 --> 01:23:03,480
bedroom with a Jacuzzi tub four 
nights in October, $940.86, 

1554
01:23:03,760 --> 01:23:07,600
approximately 59 vacation points
just for the accommodations. 

1555
01:23:07,920 --> 01:23:12,800
And then also for 2027, pricing 
isn't firm for 2027 just yet. 

1556
01:23:13,600 --> 01:23:17,880
So I'm basing this a little bit 
off of 2026 numbers, but January

1557
01:23:17,880 --> 01:23:23,520
2027 in those Vista townhomes 
where Mandy and Marissa got to 

1558
01:23:23,680 --> 01:23:25,680
spend a weekend with their 
families. 

1559
01:23:26,400 --> 01:23:29,160
This is they call it the 
two-bedroom presidential home 

1560
01:23:29,200 --> 01:23:35,000
with jacuzzi $2249.57 for a five
night. 

1561
01:23:35,040 --> 01:23:39,480
What I call a snow adventure or 
approximately 142 vacation 

1562
01:23:39,480 --> 01:23:41,720
points. 
Keep in mind that is for the 

1563
01:23:41,720 --> 01:23:45,520
accommodations only. 
And as part of working with us 

1564
01:23:45,520 --> 01:23:48,680
at the DVC rental store to swap 
your points, you will also be 

1565
01:23:48,680 --> 01:23:51,720
able to set aside some funds for
those activities that you're 

1566
01:23:51,720 --> 01:23:54,640
going to then be planning. 
And I think one of the premium 

1567
01:23:54,640 --> 01:23:57,920
benefits that you're going to 
get by doing this with us is 

1568
01:23:57,920 --> 01:24:00,840
that you actually get to work 
with their premier concierge 

1569
01:24:00,840 --> 01:24:02,720
team. 
And that team is going to take 

1570
01:24:02,720 --> 01:24:06,560
care of helping you plan all of 
those activities and special 

1571
01:24:06,560 --> 01:24:10,200
opportunities that you're going 
to want to include in your 

1572
01:24:10,200 --> 01:24:14,640
vacation. 
So again, dvcrentalstore.com, if

1573
01:24:14,640 --> 01:24:18,720
you are, you know, looking to 
use your points and head to 

1574
01:24:18,720 --> 01:24:20,760
Massenutton. 
And as I mentioned earlier in 

1575
01:24:20,760 --> 01:24:24,240
the show, we're going to have 
even more opportunities coming 

1576
01:24:24,240 --> 01:24:27,760
later this year through key 
holder vacations as part of our 

1577
01:24:27,760 --> 01:24:32,160
key Holder club loyalty program 
and a a bunch more in the future

1578
01:24:32,160 --> 01:24:35,640
with Massanutten. 
As far as I'm concerned. 

1579
01:24:35,640 --> 01:24:38,280
Just wanted to kind of go around
the room one more time and just 

1580
01:24:38,280 --> 01:24:41,960
kind of kind of final wrap UPS, 
you know, who is this resort 

1581
01:24:41,960 --> 01:24:44,320
perfect for? 
Any other comments that you 

1582
01:24:44,320 --> 01:24:48,280
wanted to kind of chime in and 
add to the conversation before 

1583
01:24:48,280 --> 01:24:51,080
we kind of wrap things up? 
I think, I think the older I 

1584
01:24:51,080 --> 01:24:55,200
get, the more I'm appreciating 
being in nature and, and doing 

1585
01:24:55,200 --> 01:25:00,040
things outdoors. 
And so I for me, like I'm, I'm 

1586
01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:03,880
really excited to go back in the
fall, ride the ski lift, see the

1587
01:25:03,880 --> 01:25:06,200
trees. 
They, they said they call them 

1588
01:25:06,200 --> 01:25:07,760
leaf peepers. 
And I was like, yeah, I'm going 

1589
01:25:07,760 --> 01:25:10,640
to be a leaf peeper because I 
haven't seen fall. 

1590
01:25:11,960 --> 01:25:14,120
I've seen fall in like 5 years 
so. 

1591
01:25:14,160 --> 01:25:15,920
Leaf peeper. 
That's what it is. 

1592
01:25:16,360 --> 01:25:20,320
You're there to see the leaves 
and, or even in the spring, you 

1593
01:25:20,320 --> 01:25:22,520
know, when you've got like 
flowers and colors and stuff 

1594
01:25:22,520 --> 01:25:25,200
blooming. 
But I'm just, I love one of my 

1595
01:25:25,200 --> 01:25:28,760
favorite things that we did was 
we drove up to like an 

1596
01:25:28,760 --> 01:25:31,480
observation point. 
It was kind of like a lookout 

1597
01:25:31,480 --> 01:25:34,960
point and it was looking down on
the valley and I just, I just 

1598
01:25:34,960 --> 01:25:36,600
loved it. 
I loved the scenery. 

1599
01:25:37,240 --> 01:25:40,320
I love seeing, you know, the, 
the whole the Shenandoah Valley.

1600
01:25:40,920 --> 01:25:43,720
I would love to spend more time 
in the Shenandoah National Park.

1601
01:25:43,720 --> 01:25:47,600
I'd love to do some hiking. 
So, so I think it's just a it's 

1602
01:25:47,600 --> 01:25:52,080
a great place if you love the 
outdoors, you love being 

1603
01:25:52,080 --> 01:25:56,280
outdoors, you love, you know, 
hiking and even what it doesn't 

1604
01:25:56,280 --> 01:25:58,080
have to be, you know, we're not 
really hikers. 

1605
01:25:58,080 --> 01:25:59,720
We're more like go for a nice 
walk. 

1606
01:25:59,960 --> 01:26:04,480
There were paths and trails all 
over that resort. 

1607
01:26:04,520 --> 01:26:07,400
You know, I mean, not just like 
like tough hiking trails, like 

1608
01:26:07,400 --> 01:26:10,320
normal gentle, easy paths and 
trails. 

1609
01:26:10,320 --> 01:26:12,360
I noticed, you know, it was a 
little hard to see 'cause 

1610
01:26:12,360 --> 01:26:14,000
everything was covered in snow 
when we were there. 

1611
01:26:14,240 --> 01:26:16,040
But I could see where some were 
starting. 

1612
01:26:16,040 --> 01:26:18,560
And even like right by our 
condo, you could start on a, on 

1613
01:26:18,560 --> 01:26:21,360
a path, on a trail. 
There were playgrounds, there 

1614
01:26:21,360 --> 01:26:25,320
were, you know, lots of swimming
pools, you know, aside from the 

1615
01:26:25,400 --> 01:26:28,560
the indoor pools that we saw 
that people were using at the 

1616
01:26:28,560 --> 01:26:31,400
time. 
If you're there during warmer 

1617
01:26:31,400 --> 01:26:35,720
temperatures, every single condo
area had a swimming pool. 

1618
01:26:36,280 --> 01:26:38,880
You know, I saw one in the 
Woodstone area, I saw one in the

1619
01:26:38,880 --> 01:26:42,440
Regal Vistas area. 
So I think it's a great place 

1620
01:26:42,440 --> 01:26:46,320
for families, you know, for 
multi generations. 

1621
01:26:47,080 --> 01:26:50,680
You were talking about the 
accommodations and you know what

1622
01:26:50,680 --> 01:26:53,640
the translates to, you know, as 
examples for any of your points,

1623
01:26:53,920 --> 01:27:00,400
those that like that one that 
was 59 points for like 4 nights 

1624
01:27:00,640 --> 01:27:05,040
that slept for people, that one 
bedroom, you know, those two 

1625
01:27:05,040 --> 01:27:10,240
bedrooms, I think slept 6. 
But so, so those are good sized,

1626
01:27:10,240 --> 01:27:11,800
you know, accommodations as 
well. 

1627
01:27:11,800 --> 01:27:15,280
You're going to have plenty of 
room for the whole family in 

1628
01:27:15,280 --> 01:27:17,840
those accommodations. 
Amy, you mentioned Shenandoah 

1629
01:27:17,840 --> 01:27:21,320
National Park multiple times. 
Maybe you and your family kind 

1630
01:27:21,320 --> 01:27:24,200
of being up in the Virginia 
area, not only massive nothing, 

1631
01:27:24,200 --> 01:27:26,040
but you've got to explore more 
of that area. 

1632
01:27:26,040 --> 01:27:30,880
So why should someone maybe be 
considering that part of of of 

1633
01:27:30,880 --> 01:27:32,920
the US for this type of 
vacation? 

1634
01:27:33,320 --> 01:27:37,160
Yeah, I think there's so much to
do right, especially if you are 

1635
01:27:37,160 --> 01:27:41,360
are are into like in like Amy 
said, getting into like enjoying

1636
01:27:41,360 --> 01:27:44,120
nature and being outside. 
I mean, Shenandoah National 

1637
01:27:44,120 --> 01:27:46,040
Park, you could probably spend 
days there. 

1638
01:27:47,160 --> 01:27:49,800
It's within like Shenandoah 
National Park is huge. 

1639
01:27:49,800 --> 01:27:53,240
So depending on which areas 
you're going to there, anywhere 

1640
01:27:53,240 --> 01:27:55,920
from like 30 minutes to an hour 
from Massanutten. 

1641
01:27:57,160 --> 01:27:59,920
But there's also like Luray, 
where you have like the Luray 

1642
01:27:59,920 --> 01:28:03,960
Caverns and all of the wineries 
that they talked about and 

1643
01:28:03,960 --> 01:28:07,840
several hiking trails. 
And like Amy have mentioned, you

1644
01:28:07,840 --> 01:28:10,720
know, obviously Massanutten 
teams up to do river adventures.

1645
01:28:10,720 --> 01:28:13,800
There's a ton of other 
opportunities out there as well.

1646
01:28:14,680 --> 01:28:17,040
And so I think it's a really 
good opportunity to go out 

1647
01:28:17,040 --> 01:28:18,360
there. 
So you know, of course, we've 

1648
01:28:18,360 --> 01:28:20,520
kind of talked a little bit 
about these short trips that 

1649
01:28:20,520 --> 01:28:23,920
we've done, but I think 
Massenutten offers a ton of 

1650
01:28:23,920 --> 01:28:26,440
things just even on their 
property for you to be able to 

1651
01:28:26,440 --> 01:28:29,680
do a week long trip. 
But if you wanted to go off 

1652
01:28:29,680 --> 01:28:32,440
property and experience some 
other things outside of 

1653
01:28:32,440 --> 01:28:36,760
Massenutten, there's so many 
beautiful areas to explore. 

1654
01:28:37,240 --> 01:28:39,280
My family has spent time in that
area. 

1655
01:28:39,280 --> 01:28:42,640
We've done Shenandoah National 
Park, the Lorry Caverns and the 

1656
01:28:42,640 --> 01:28:46,760
sit in the town of Lorry is is 
just absolutely beautiful so I 

1657
01:28:46,760 --> 01:28:49,280
highly recommend it. 
Our family has gone multiple 

1658
01:28:49,280 --> 01:28:51,280
times. 
We absolutely love it. 

1659
01:28:51,880 --> 01:28:54,720
I enjoy going to Massanutten and
then doing those things because 

1660
01:28:54,720 --> 01:28:56,360
then I don't have to stay in the
camper. 

1661
01:28:59,480 --> 01:29:03,800
Have a have a nice bed and real,
real bathroom. 

1662
01:29:04,000 --> 01:29:06,800
So yes, Marissa, final thoughts 
on Massenaten? 

1663
01:29:07,200 --> 01:29:09,960
One thing I'll touch on real 
quick, which you mentioned as 

1664
01:29:09,960 --> 01:29:13,520
part of doing the swap with DVC 
rental store is that that 

1665
01:29:13,520 --> 01:29:17,440
concierge service and that was 
something that you touched on as

1666
01:29:17,440 --> 01:29:19,160
well with their staff and their 
service. 

1667
01:29:19,160 --> 01:29:22,920
And I think that was something 
that they just have just 

1668
01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:26,880
tremendous service with. 
And honestly, I think when you 

1669
01:29:26,880 --> 01:29:30,000
look at it from a guest 
perspective it, it is tremendous

1670
01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:31,960
value. 
And I look at that just from 

1671
01:29:31,960 --> 01:29:34,520
being a parent and going and 
trying to book a lot of things. 

1672
01:29:34,960 --> 01:29:36,320
I. 
Kind of concierge while I was 

1673
01:29:36,320 --> 01:29:39,200
there and it was so simple. 
It would be something that, hey,

1674
01:29:39,200 --> 01:29:41,840
we wanted to do last minute 
dinner plans at Campfire Grill. 

1675
01:29:41,840 --> 01:29:43,840
So I was able to text them 
really quick, let them know our 

1676
01:29:43,840 --> 01:29:46,520
party size and they were able to
set that dining up. 

1677
01:29:46,800 --> 01:29:50,040
Or we decided to switch what 
days we were doing snow tubing 

1678
01:29:50,200 --> 01:29:53,640
and having access to that 
concierge to be able to make 

1679
01:29:53,640 --> 01:29:56,800
those changes and having 
somebody who can kind of get all

1680
01:29:56,800 --> 01:29:59,840
those questions for you asked 
while you're there or do those 

1681
01:29:59,840 --> 01:30:02,280
last minute bookings was hugely 
beneficial. 

1682
01:30:02,440 --> 01:30:05,440
So I will say it sounds. 
Something like, Oh yeah, get 

1683
01:30:05,440 --> 01:30:07,640
this too. 
But it is a really, really great

1684
01:30:07,640 --> 01:30:09,640
value that I think our guests 
will love. 

1685
01:30:09,880 --> 01:30:14,280
And when you look at that from a
perspective of we don't get that

1686
01:30:14,280 --> 01:30:15,880
as much. 
I feel like this day and age 

1687
01:30:15,880 --> 01:30:17,240
when it comes to our resort 
stay. 

1688
01:30:17,240 --> 01:30:19,800
So having that is a really nice 
value add. 

1689
01:30:20,600 --> 01:30:24,360
And just to like piggyback on 
what Marissa said too, like with

1690
01:30:24,360 --> 01:30:26,880
the with the service and just 
kind of like their level of 

1691
01:30:26,880 --> 01:30:30,320
hospitality, like it almost 
reminds you of like old Disney 

1692
01:30:30,320 --> 01:30:35,000
in a sense. 
If you talk to like those of us 

1693
01:30:35,000 --> 01:30:37,480
who love Disney and love Disney 
Vacation Club, love a good 

1694
01:30:37,480 --> 01:30:39,800
story. 
And if you take the time to just

1695
01:30:39,800 --> 01:30:42,400
talk to some of the staff 
members there, they have been 

1696
01:30:42,400 --> 01:30:45,840
staff members there for several 
years. 

1697
01:30:46,080 --> 01:30:49,440
And so they all have each 
stories and they have different 

1698
01:30:49,440 --> 01:30:51,960
unique stories. 
And, and like, even we were at 

1699
01:30:51,960 --> 01:30:55,280
Elevations Lounge and, you know,
we were sitting at the bar and 

1700
01:30:55,280 --> 01:30:58,320
we were talking about like, you 
know, Marissa had mentioned the 

1701
01:30:58,320 --> 01:31:01,160
decor there and how it was like,
you know, you have like, you 

1702
01:31:01,160 --> 01:31:02,920
know, vintage skis and things 
like that. 

1703
01:31:02,920 --> 01:31:05,040
But there was like a story 
behind everything. 

1704
01:31:05,040 --> 01:31:07,560
Like there was like repurposed 
wood that they had used from 

1705
01:31:07,560 --> 01:31:09,680
something local. 
And so there's a lot of 

1706
01:31:09,680 --> 01:31:12,760
storytelling that goes on with, 
you know, there's kind of the 

1707
01:31:12,760 --> 01:31:16,360
why behind Mass and as well. 
And just like that level of 

1708
01:31:16,360 --> 01:31:19,360
service and hospitality I think 
goes back to the core of what 

1709
01:31:19,360 --> 01:31:21,320
like we have grown to love about
Disney. 

1710
01:31:21,320 --> 01:31:23,960
And I think that DVC members 
will find a lot of those 

1711
01:31:23,960 --> 01:31:26,360
correlations with the 
storytelling there as well. 

1712
01:31:26,760 --> 01:31:30,400
Yeah, most of the most of the 
people there have kind of grown 

1713
01:31:30,400 --> 01:31:33,480
up in that region. 
And so they really, they want to

1714
01:31:33,480 --> 01:31:36,360
tell you about what makes that 
place shine, what makes that 

1715
01:31:36,360 --> 01:31:39,960
part of the country so special. 
I was also surprised how many of

1716
01:31:39,960 --> 01:31:45,640
the staff members lived on the 
mountain of Massanutten and love

1717
01:31:45,640 --> 01:31:48,160
being close and love being 
there. 

1718
01:31:48,240 --> 01:31:50,800
Love being close, love being on 
the mountain. 

1719
01:31:50,800 --> 01:31:53,720
They also do an international 
program very similar to Disney 

1720
01:31:53,720 --> 01:31:57,400
parks where they do have some of
their staff that come in from 

1721
01:31:57,400 --> 01:32:00,920
foreign countries and they stay 
right on property there and 

1722
01:32:00,920 --> 01:32:03,720
either work the winter ski 
season or work the summer 

1723
01:32:03,720 --> 01:32:07,960
season. 
So yeah, just incredible 

1724
01:32:07,960 --> 01:32:10,040
opportunity for us to explore 
the resort. 

1725
01:32:10,040 --> 01:32:14,040
Big thank you to Massanutten for
having us out for that amazing 

1726
01:32:14,040 --> 01:32:16,360
trip and we can't wait to come 
back. 

1727
01:32:16,360 --> 01:32:18,240
And what do you call it? 
Leaf peep I? 

1728
01:32:18,360 --> 01:32:21,120
Want to be a leaf peeper? 
Amy wants to leaf peep. 

1729
01:32:21,840 --> 01:32:25,640
Mandy Marissa, thank you so much
for joining us for this special 

1730
01:32:25,640 --> 01:32:29,760
episode because you have so much
knowledge about the resort and 

1731
01:32:29,960 --> 01:32:32,080
got to explore it with your 
families. 

1732
01:32:32,080 --> 01:32:36,440
And thank you to the young kids 
that joined us also, who kind of

1733
01:32:36,440 --> 01:32:39,040
chimed in and gave us some of 
their thoughts about why you 

1734
01:32:39,040 --> 01:32:44,000
should consider the Massanutten 
Resort for your family vacation.

1735
01:32:44,320 --> 01:32:47,240
That's going to do it for this 
episode, this special episode of

1736
01:32:47,240 --> 01:32:49,880
the DVC Show. 
We hope you enjoyed it. 

1737
01:32:49,880 --> 01:32:53,520
We will be back next Monday with
