LONG TERM RENTAL ONLY: MIN.30 NITE STAY. VMI & W&L & VA HORSE CENTER - WELCOME!
Please call and inquire about discounts.
(THIS HOME IS A LONG TERM RENTAL DUE TO ZONING REQUIREMENTS. ONE MUST STAY AT LEAST 30 NIGHTS OR MORE!)
Within walking distance to Lexington, this cottage is on a bluff above the Maury River across from Jordan's Point Park and VMI 's North Post. (A small portion of the walk into town is on Furrs Mill Road which has no sidewalk.) The Chessie Trail, an abandoned railroad bed converted for hiking, links the cities of Lexington and Buena Vista, and it begins directly below our house across the Maury River, which can be seen easily from our front porch in late fall (depending on when leaves fall from the trees), winter and early spring. This trail provides a wonderful, scenic hike for all age groups and levels of fitness. Although the cottage is very private and secluded, VMI, Washington and Lee University, gourmet eateries and unique shopping experiences can be enjoyed within a short walking distance. After a busy day at the Virginia Horse Center, one can return ( 2.4 miles) to the front porch of our cottage for a cool or warm (depending on the season) drink, relaxation and reflection upon the amazing beauty offered by this quaint community which is nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains. A retreat for all seasons, this getaway offers the comforts of home! This simple cottage is clean and uncluttered and guests are most welcomed.

This is a TRUE VACATION RENTAL and not our private home. We love animals, especially Labrador Retrievers, but we do not allow animals in the house.
