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 ‍
Anne R.

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.

Bar closes at 10:00pm. What a showstopper. I'm on my adult vacation, not bible camp. No more future visits here.

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.

Looking over the menu for the first time I kept telling my wife "that sounds good" then only a moment later I would say it again then again. After careful consideration I went with the sample platter. Ribs, brisket, & pulled pork. Chose the cheesy cornbread with honey butter and the baked beans. It was large enough to split with my gal. She took less than I and she still couldn't finish it all. Loved every bit of the meats. A beautiful smoke ring on all of it. They know their business around the smoker. The cornbread was delicious but I didn't fully care for the baked beans. They were a bit tangy and lacked the smoked meat in them that I've come to expect. The prices were reasonable and the place was very clean. Will be back when we return to the area. Enjoy it.

We got there around 5:30pm on a weeknight and within a few minutes many other tables also seated. The waitress was super helpful explaining the items and telling us about the bakery downstairs that makes the buns and cornbread fresh. I was in a group of five women, the person that liked her food the most got the salmon. Several folks got burgers, one got chicken patty with fries, coleslaw, macaroni, cornbread,, and I got the bbq sampler. They had four homemade bbq sauce at the table, original, a mustard variety, a Carolina variety, and a bourbon sweet variety. None of them spicy, not a fan, at best used the original bbq sauce. The brisket was super tender and delicious, recommended. The pulled pork was a generous serving but a bit dry, needed the sauce, I took half mine home to eat later with more bbq sauce. I thought I ordered naked ribs but they came out blackened in a rub, I went ahead and tried them, a bit dry but okay. Would not get the dry rub again. Two of us got the cornbread loaf side, I thought it was okay with the honey butter, my friend thought it was way too dry. I ate about half and took it home with more of the honey butter. One person got the seasoned fries and shared them, they were okay, generous portion size, she was trying to eat them with mayo, was also drying with the powdered topping and very salty. We were on a dry theme with many dishes! Most people with burgers ate around their buns. Due to the sad selection of hot sauces and meh 2/3 items on sampler and average cornbread, leaning towards and average review. We had hiked all day at Shenandoah National Park and very hungry when we arrived but quickly flipped from enthusiastic to disappointed. Service was good, atmosphere was good, but didn't enjoy the food as much. Maybe eat there if nearby, good for quickly seating groups, lots of meat options.
