The food was good. The place is really cool. The service could have been better. We ordered drinks and our beer set on the bar with the ticket for our table for about 10 minutes before our server brought it to us. When I was able to locate our server, she was hitting her vape and taking pictures of herself with her phone.

The lighting landscape at base camp
Tara M.

Food is great and esp the new light up swings they have now for both kids and adults to enjoy only downfall is mostly seems like adults wanting to be on them and kids having to wait their turn they need to have 2 sep sections one for adults one for children's so kids can have their own section Ik with as much money as Massenutten is racking in they should t have a problem doing so!! They're a lil pricey so be prepared esp the cocktail drinks nearly $15 dollars a pop for a dinner for four ppl nearly $300 that includes tip so yea pricey! The buffet they have during the week isn't what it's all cracked up to be I went and flies were flying over the uncovered produce toppings for the burgers and hotdogs so basically don't waste your time on the buffet deal at least I didn't think so it seems like they have free events but yet they lure you in to buy stuff if you know what I'm saying bc ice cream stand beside the kids toys of course kids gonna want ice cream but all and all if looking for nice outing for the fam while on vacation for the weekend I would def check it out forsure! Def can get a lot of family pics while there and make plenty of memories and that's what it's all about the lighting they have there is so cool at night time the view is priceless. Now on days they have activities plan on being there waiting on service a while and if lil one is hungry and tired you may just have to order and go like I had too!

We had lunch and dinner at base camp, mainly because it was only restaurant open. Seating is outdoor and umbrellas over table do not block sun At lunch We seated ourselves because no one was around. I had to go into the bar to get menus. Our server finally showed up and took our drink order. I ordered the Beef Bulgogi bowl. The food was not hot, but luke-warm at best. It did taste good, but would have been better hot. Our server was very helpful and did a good job. For the evening meal, they had a buffet. All, but the mac & cheese was not hot. The meat was very dry, as well as the cornbread. They did not have much on the buffet; pulled pork, bbq chicken, collard greens, mac-n-cheese, cornbread, pepper slaw and some kind of odd salad. It is definitely no where worth $20. Our server was ok.

Large, deep dish pizza ‍

We were hoping to like this place. It was our first time, although we've been owners at Massanutten for almost 5 years. We've always explored the surrounding area eats but this week we didn't want to leave the resort. We were excited to order what we did - deep dish pizza, calamari, the nachos and the summer salad (not pictured). As you can see in the pic, this was no deep dish pizza. In fact, it was a thin crust pizza! Brought that up with our server, who never showed us he was interested in being there until he gave us our check and it was time to sign on the dotted line. All he said was, we're not the first to ask about it. We then said, maybe he can share with management, and he said "oh they know". ‍ Uhhh ok, well time to change that menu! Trash can nachos had big chunks of poorly seasoned ground beef. It looked appetizing but it was bland and the melted cheese were stuck in the can and hardly any were on the chips. The fried calamari was the only thing we enjoyed. It was well seasoned, but as you can see in the pic, there's like 9 pieces Lastly, the summer salad was a Waldorf salad dupe. It was not a good mix. Why was there grilled onions with the raspberries? Yikes. Lesson learned. We won't return to this place. We tried the other resto the following evening (Campfire Grill) and enjoyed that one by a huge leap.

Grilled cheese and French fries. Both were tasteless
Audrine M.

While staying at Massanutten resorts, we decided to pickup some food for our toddler. I can't begin to explain how disappointed I was with the food we got from Base Camp. How can anyone mess up grilled cheese and fries is beyond me. The food was tasteless. I would definitely not come back here, but the place was full, so I am hoping the rest of the food they serve might be good. In spite of the food disaster, I would recommend this place for its entertainment and vibe. They had live musicians who really kept the crowd engaged, and many people were dancing on the dance floor, including my little one. They also have large size Jenga and Connect 4, which keeps kids entertained while waiting on the food.

Such a cute place to find! Located on the massanutten resort, this spot stood out at the top with it's heated tents and full bar! We stopped in here for a bite and was glad to be in the warmth while we got fun cocktails and snacks. It was convenient to the snow and we saw lots of kids playing outside while their parents watched from above. Food was decent for bar food and it was nice to find a spot that was open.

I recall that last year I was able to get a screwball and Diet Coke, which was really yummy but this year I ended up with a green bold rock cider. I saw that they predominantly sell cans of wine, cans of beer and the occasional mimosa or bloody Mary, but no options for bar drinks or otherwise liquor options. They still offer some easy to grab snack snacks like Cheetos and Doritos The fire pit is still roasting and warm, and I will always continue to stop here in the future during our days on the slope I noticed that at the bottom towards the entrance of the slopes they have a new yacht pagoda like bar that they recommended for us to grab any cocktails :)

And it's a nice drive. The area itself is also nice. It's quiet and pleasant. Until you get to the pool. Then it's loud and full of unsupervised kids. Ugh. The hours aren't great, either. It seems like the pools close super early. Why?!!! The restaurants are decent but again for a resort, the hours are just not open late enough. Lastly, the high pressure sales tour is just ridiculous. It was almost enough to make me not want to come back. Stacy and Todd are horrible, worst salespeople ever. They're just rude and unprofessional. Except for them, the trip was good.

I got in on staying Monday-Wednesday, March 27-29, 2023. I was able to combine with work travel not too far from there on that Monday & took off the next 2 days. My friend was hangry and was like BBQ sounds so good. I said I could go for BBQ before hitting the road to go back to Maryland on that Wednesday night, March 29, 2023. Others in the group that were still there agreed. Wow, this was excellent BBQ, not like the BBQ you find in the DC-Baltimore area. I got a BBQ brisket with mac n' cheese (my favorite vegetable...haha...I know not a veggie, but like to joke about that). Both the brisket & mac n cheese were excellent. I think my 2nd side was side salad. That same friend had the timeshare said my girlfriend & I could enjoy on our own anytime in the Sunday night to Friday time range. I sorted out details that made sense and determined to work on the road on that Wednesday afternoon and take off Thursday & Friday. Unlike the March 2023 trip, we made Hank's the 1st meal that Wednesday, April 24, 2024 night. My girlfriend was impressed too. I got a BBQ brisket sandwich this time. It was excellent like I remembered just over a year earlier. Service was also friendly & efficient. It's a cute place with various western decor. On the April 2024 visit, we saw 2 cars with Quebec license plates, so people come from all over to Massanutten, Rockingham County in general, & specifically to Hank's if they want excellent BBQ.

My family loved it but honestly I didn't fully enjoy it…read more The Pulled Pork sandwich was good, and so was the collard greens But any product with cheese just tasted weird The grilled cheese, the cheese grits, and another cheese product (I forgot what it was) They all tasted weird Also they claimed to have "southern style" green beans but I've had better southern green beans in Michigan Very bland green beans Maybe I was just too tired, or maybe it was the crying baby, but I didn't love it as much as everyone else. The decor was pretty though I gave it 4 stars just because the I only found 2 things wrong, and the rest of my family loved it.

The bartenders are consistently on point, which is important when you've been traveling long enough to consider a properly made cocktail a basic human right. The farm-to-table small plates are usually terrific too. Every now and then, a dish may wander off the culinary trail, but honestly, four out of five plates are the kind that make you look at each other and say, "Why don't we live here?" And then there's the rooftop view. At first, you may have to look past the sea of retail stores and parking lots--but once your eyes reach the mountains on the horizon, the view is downright spectacular. Great drinks, very good food, and mountain scenery that manages to rise above the shopping center below: that is a rooftop restaurant worth planning a road trip around.

I have found the front staff and the wait staff to be lacking in their consideration towards restaurant guests. It seems that they are picking and choosing whom they choose to grant a great experience to. Service: The front staff and waitress we had carried an air of attitude when dealing with me and my family. It seemed like they were not keen to accommodate a few of our basic requests which essentially boiled down to laziness. To be honest, they are very petty when it comes to getting a table on their rooftop...when my family (of 5) came in, they told us it was first come first serve and sat us inside. Another family came in with 3-4 adults and 2 kids after we were seated, to which they promptly moved them outside even though they were inside as well when a spot opened up. I'm not truly understanding the mentality of service here and frankly thought for a nice establishment there would be better decorum and attitude towards guests. Food: overall pretty good. I found the food and drink to be solid. In summary, the food is good here but doesn't surpass the service we received.
