My wife and I enjoyed a fantastic weekend on this beautiful estate! We enjoyed that our specific property was quiet and private. But as you step outside, there’s lots to see!

Thank you Stephen for your great review. We hope you keep The Meadows at Castleton in mind for future travel.
I am from the area and i never knew this beautiful gem was there in castleton. The house was very clean, beds and bedding were very comfortable. Shower was hot and good water pressure. Connie was very communicative and friendly.

Thank you Jonathan for your great review and we look forward to seeing you again.
Property was exactly as advertised. Easy checkin/ out. We booked this house for a quiet, relaxing, long weekend to explore the Shenandoah National Park which was an easy 20 minute drive away. Property has a variety of amenities that we did not explore but liked that they were available. Enjoyed the private hot tub and even had a surprise black snake visitor. Would definitely book at Castleton properties again.

Thank you for your great review. We hope you will come back to Castleton soon.
Gorgeous, secluded, farm property. We stayed in the carriage house and it was more than enough space for the four of us. Clean and cozy. I appreciated not having to bring my own linens! We didn’t get to explore all the property has to offer due to daily excursions (everything is 1/2 away in any direction), but we did get to visit the farm animals and have a day in the amazing pool house. Connie is a great host who communicated with me through the trip as I needed and gave great recommendations of wineries and things to do in the area. I hope to visit again with family and rent one of the larger homes - and stay longer- No one wanted to leave!

Thank you Kate for your awesome review. It is appreciated. We look forward to seeing you again at Castleton Meadows.
We had a terrific time at this property, which is one of a number of houses/cottages on the 500-acre estate of late symphony conductor Loren Maazel. The carriage unit we stayed in was a 2d floor walk-up, with the kitchen, living room, master bed (king) and a full bath on that floor. Up another flight of stairs is another bathroom, a full bed and a queen bed. Outside are woods, a stream, and a pond. Rolling meadows all around. Elsewhere on the property is another pond (with some kayaks for use), tennis courts, basketball hoops, fields, some farm animals, and an asphalt walking path several miles long.
