Quaint and peaceful little cottage
Thoroughly enjoyed my stay! The cottage is quaint and very clean...the setting is peaceful and quiet...the host was attentive and thoughtful. HIghly recommend!
Beautiful property, clean house, and personal welcoming touches greeted us. List of activities, suggestions and frequent check-ins from property manager. Highly recommend visiting!
Lovely stay in a quiet and peaceful location that was conveniently located for all our activities.
Host was very communicative and helpful. If there was a washer and dryer, I would definitely book for longer stays!
Beautiful and cozy cottage. Views of the mountains in the distance and rolling fields. So comfortable, and welcoming. My Host was very nice and her welcoming treats were sweet. Rooms were nicely decorated and warm.
Came into town for my cousin's wedding. This location was perfect for rehearsal and ceremony.
The place is adorable and quiet. Small, but perfect for my son, sister, and me.
My family and I had a wonderful experience. The cottage is lovely and the setting could not be more peaceful and more beautiful. Our host, Denise was the best! She was so kind to give us fresh baked treats that were incredibly delicious. She was very attentive and made sure that everything was perfect. We plan to return to the beautiful cottage and Denise's hospitality.
Although set on a farm, the property is close to all of the sites and activities near Charlottesville. The property is an old farmhouse with modern amenities. The owner is next store and is very responsive, but never intrusive. After a day visiting Monticello and a day of hiking, our return to the property was relaxing. The two bedrooms are large and the entire home is nicely appointed. We would definitely return.

Countryside Cottage
We loved the cottage. It was perfect for us with two dogs. There was plenty of room for them to run and play outdoors. Denise, the property manager, was so lovely and kind. She had prepared a basket of delicious homemade treats for us when we arrived. She actually called us a week or so in advance of our stay to see if we had any special needs or requests. The cottage was clean and comfortable. Our 2 night stay was a “layover “ before continuing our drive to our final destination in North Carolina. We would definitely return.
