A Last Min trip to VA
It’s been a while, so we had to get a little vacay in during break. We decided to head to Massanutten Resort in Massanutten, VA for a Thursday-Saturday trip. Days were chosen specifically because the rates were good and because of the specials – BOGO Tubing and Kids eat free on weeknights. This resort has…
