Great for a large group
We rented for our race team & pit crew for a VIR race. Exactly as described, plenty of space and beds for everyone. Common areas both upstairs and downstairs were great for a large group of people. Christmas decorations were a nice touch. Would love to stay again!

Perfect for a family
My family with little kids and a dog stayed for lake fun and a racetrack weekend at VIR. We loved the house, location, property, and dock. It’s a quick drive to VIR. The house was very clean and well organized. It had lots of pots, cooking supplies, towels, shampoo, soap, etc… The house has an awesome yard and is in a nice little cove off the lake. We loved being able to easily walk from the dock to the house and the dock was comfortable to sit on. It was such a plus to be able to run back and forth on a gently sloping path. We had meals and coffee on the lovely covered deck with a fan going so we didn’t have to worry about mosquitoes. It’s an awesome place and we hope to visit again!

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Barkley

Host profile image
I'm a former pilot and a homemaker.

Why they chose this property

Our property is about 1 acre with lots of parking space. Our five bedrooms are ample in size. Three rooms are upstairs and two are down. We have a sidewalk to the lower level bedrooms and the dock in case steps are a concern and our lower level bathroom has just a small step in to the large shower.

There are two full kitchens in the home and a grilling station outdoors. We provide many of the basic needs for cooking. Our coffee bar has a regular Keurig cup dispenser and full pot, bean grinder, Vertuo Nespresso, electric kettle and loose tea pot.

The dock is 2500 sqft with two boat lifts and a jet ski lift. We require an additional fee for use of the lifts and a brief how-to review. In our bar on the dock we have a mini fridge and many different sized life vests.

What makes this property unique

Available to our guests free of charge is the use of our kayak and SUP. Please care for them like they are your own and lock them up as you found them.

Please inquire about our “cozy stay” rates if you don’t require the entire 5 bedroom home or your stay is under 3 nights. The upstairs is easily partitioned and the whole outdoors is still available.

Please inquire about events on the property. Weddings and more formal gatherings are encouraged and would be beautiful on our property.

You’ll have access to the whole home with the exception of a few locked supply closets and the garage.

You will also have access to everything on the dock. Please take care and require little ones and non-swimmers to wear a vest. It’s about 7 ft deep off the end of the dock.

Other things to note:
Our home is not child-proofed but we do welcome children. Our children are young and have done fine in the home but be aware there are no baby gates or childproof devices.

A single pet is permitted. No large breed dogs please.
