Quiet, relaxing get-away

Large, very clean, beautifully decorated, nicely appointed, private and quiet with a very friendly host. A rural cabin that makes a great get-away from people and crowds, but a 15 minute drive from the city of Charlottesville. We had such a nice and relaxing stay. We'll be back and next time we'll stay longer!

Hostess was extremely welcoming and pleasant to speak to. Her place is impeccably decorated and one feels a great appreciation of Americana. Highly recommend especially in light of the extremely overpriced option in Charlottesville itself. Was our opportunity to see and spend time with our recently born first grandchild. We will definitely return on our next visit !!

Fantastic getaway spot tucked away in the woods of Scottsville. Our host, Bea, was absolutely lovely and made sure we had everything we needed for our weekend stay. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking, there were plenty of pillows and blankets provided as well as towels and wash cloths. It couldn’t have been a more perfect stay and we look forward to coming back soon!

Listing needs better labeling.

We had to meet our host in person at the property to both check in and check out. Check in took about forty-five minutes for no reason. The listing of the property's amenities was incorrect. There is no wifi and renters have to go outside to find any slight crumb of cell service. Which may or may not happen depending on how the wind blows the trees. There was also, strangely, an amenity listed that guaranteed access to an unnamed water park. This last bit didn't interest us, but it shouldn't have been offered. The master bed on the first floor was advertised as a queen when in reality it's a full. This place would be IDEAL for so many people if it was listed properly and honestly. And please consider a coded drop box for the key.

This place is magical

The cabin is incredibly clean and kept in immaculate condition. We couldn't stop admiring all the work they've put into it and little touches they added. Even the driveway drainage was well thought out.The owner was lovely and greeted us with brownies. It was nice to know they were a text away yet we felt very secluded and private in the cabin. They were very welcoming and we even got to meet their sweet puppies. We were treated like family.They had a trail around the property which we loved. We walked it 3x in two days. There's a creek on the property and your immersed in nature. The trail is lined with gorgeous plants and wild blueberries.My only caution with renting here is that you won't want to leave! I could have sat our whole trip on the porch and been so content. It was a perfect trip.

Amazing Girlfriends Getaway

This place is just beautiful. So relaxing but close to everything you want to do at the same time. Myself & 2 best friends for life went for a few days to catch up, relax, visit wineries, nature hike, we visited Monticello & Carter Mountain Orchard, all within a few short miles. It has beautiful views & so quiet & peaceful. The cabin is cozy, fireplace was perfect. Bea & Rick are so nice & accommodating. We had everything we needed. We will def be back! And the brownies Bea made us were delicious. Thanks again for everything.

About the host

Hosted by BEA

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

Having a total of 66 acres of woods and privacy is what inspired us to build Deer Ridge.

Besides being totally secluded, it is only minutes to Monticello, Ashlawn/Highland, Jefferson, Blenheim and Trump Wineries and 15 minutes to Charlottesville.


What makes this property unique

Careful planning has gone into every aspect of it's construction, from the actual setting of the cabin for the sunny kitchen/back porch mornings to the viewing of the setting sun from the front porch. Each stone in the chimney and fireplace have been handpicked, along with the sawmill cut boards on the walls to the individually wooden hand-pegged red oak floors. Rick and I have worked for the past to 2 years in order to bring Deer Ridge to life and are currently offering it for others to enjoy.

Located only minutes from local major Historic Sites, 3 Wineries and only 15 minutes to Charlottesville.

Perfect for a quick getaway, lodging for members of a wedding party for those celebrating at nearby Ash Lawn/Highland, a honeymoon/marriage retreat or just for a quiet family vacation.
