We enjoyed our stay at Carter’s Cottage! It’s beautifully decorated, the kitchen is fully stocked, and the beds are very comfortable. The hot tub is nice, too! The location is convenient to local restaurants, breweries, and wineries. We did have to bring our own chairs to sit in out back because the ones around the fire pit were very uncomfortable and not sturdy. Even though the house sits close to the highway, the traffic wasn’t bothersome at all—could barely hear anything and it’s not too heavily traveled. We do recommend this property.

Thank you so much for staying with us, Donna! We’re glad you enjoyed Carter’s Cottage, especially the comfortable beds, well-stocked kitchen, hot tub, and convenient location. We also appreciate your feedback about the fire-pit chairs and will take a closer look at replacing them with something sturdier and more comfortable. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we hope you’ll visit again! Scott & Heather

Great place for overflow family members at Christmas!

Two of our sons, each with two children, stayed here. It was the perfect setup, two bedrooms with king beds and a room with two bunk beds! The location was super convenient for joining us at our StoneyCreek home for meals and heading to the mountain for skiing and snow tubing. The property is very clean and updated. The hottub was a bonus!

The house was absolutely stunning. We had a girls weekend and went distillery hopping. We felt very secure, cozy, and had an amazing time. Loved the mattresses so much everyone that stayed wants to know what kind so they can have one at their own homes.

Fantastic Spot

Rental process and check in was seamless. The hosts were fantastic communicators. The property is fantastically maintained, very clean, and provides all the amenities one could desire.

Wonderful home

The home was beautiful and very clean. The best part of the home was the fact that it was in such a great location for the local brewers, distilleries etc. However the property exceeded our wants and needs. The owner stoked the home nicely and we never had to worry about little things like paper products, soaps etc. we enjoyed our girls weekend! We would definitely rent again!

Fantastic location near everything. Fantastic kitchen, very well equipped with everything needed for a nice getaway. Beds were AMAZINGLY comfortable. Place was very clean. No sneaking to the kitchen in the middle of the night though to grab a glass of water without waking people up, the wood floors are very creaky. Considering the hefty cleaning fee, I was surprised by how many additional chores and cleaning tasks there were. Overall a nice place. Very well labeled.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the convenient location, well-equipped kitchen, and especially the comfort of the beds — we agree, a good night's sleep makes all the difference on a getaway. We appreciate your note about the creaky floors — that charming character comes with some tradeoffs in older homes, but we'll continue exploring ways to reduce noise for lighter sleepers. Regarding the checkout instructions, we aim to strike a balance between guest convenience and ensuring our home stays in great shape for everyone who visits. That said, we’re always reviewing our process and truly appreciate your perspective. We’re so glad you had a great stay overall and hope to welcome you back again soon! Warmly, Koehler Vacation Rentals

Carter’s Cottage

My mother, brothers and their wives stayed here for the weekend to attend my daughter’s wedding. The simple ranch-style exterior is surpassed by the clean and well-appointed interior. There were seven of us and were accommodated very comfortably. The kitchen was spacious and was filled with everything you could ask for. We didn’t use the outside fireplace or grill due to rain but the patio is nice. I didn’t care much for the location on a busy highway but because of the lovely interior I would still recommend this place to friends.

Best of 151

This property is amazing. Location 10 Cleanliness 10 Communication 10 We were celebrating a milestone in a friends cancer remission journey (10 years) and felt so welcomed with a personalized gift and decorations. The details are always what matter! There was so much effort from the owners in making this experience special. This property was so nice, we really didn't want to leave with the accommodations and the back yard. When we did leave there was so much within walking distance or a short drive away. If you are looking for somewhere in the area, look no further, book now!!!!

Awesome getaway that is super clean, organized and well stocked.

The house was amazing! The owners do an awesome job communicating, organizing and stocking the house. Plenty of amenities both inside and out with outdoor games, gas grill and fire pit prepped with wood - ready to go. Probably the most well stocked and laid out house we've ever stayed. It is a great place in a great location too. Close to quite a few wineries, breweries and trails. Plus there is a grocery store and liquor store within walking distance. The wineries in Virginia are beautiful and a must see for wine aficionados. I was impressed at what they can do with the limited grape selections, and the mountain scenery and settings are simply awesome. Although we did not go to any breweries, there were several options in the area that always seemed packed. We definitely enjoyed our extended weekend trip.
