WONDERFUL GETAWAY!
The farmhouse was a great atmosphere for a family get away. The charm of farmhouse, lovely accommodations, amazing scenery, close to vineyards /breweries, fun time feeding the farm animals, fire pit and smores at night, and super friendly farm care takers. We will be back!!

Wonderful Getaway
This property exceeded my expectations and communication with Linda was always prompt and responsive. Our family could not stop talking about wonderful the experience was and we talked about making another trip sometime in the future. It was a peaceful, relaxing getaway...100% would recommend if you are looking for a place around the Charlottesville area.

Comfortable and homey
This farm house is like taking a step back in time. The animals were friendly and fun to feed. The beds were comfortable. The only hiccup was we needed a blender and couldn't find one anywhere. I would stay here again. Great house and property.

Comfortable and quiet
Our group enjoyed the spacious and comfy house. Very well equipped in a beautiful setting. The location is super accessible to 151 but in a nice quiet location - the only noise we ever heard were the lovely tree frogs.

Wedding Stay
We ended up having 7 guests stay for my daughter's wedding at Valley Road Vineyards. We had a great time at the Farmhouse and it had wonderful amenities. Bedrooms were great as well as the kitchen and living area downstairs. We enjoyed the piano.

Very cool place to stay
This property is very special if you like country, a beautiful view, and animals. There is a great deck from which to enjoy the view, and a nice pool area. The animals are very friendly, and so cute. The location is convenient for the many wineries, and close enough to Charlottesville if you need town stuff. The only downside is the lack of internet service.

Perfect Farm
Huge house with tons of character. Lots of space for our group. Movies, games and activities everywhere. Huge kitchen with everything we needed to cook Thanksgiving dinner. I had no idea 2 ovens would be so helpful.

Family Vacation
We all enjoyed our stay. We had 7 kids and 4 adults. The pool was great. The kids loved the animals. The rooms were large and well maintained. We all enjoyed the movie room. The kitchen had every kind of cooking and eating utensils and devices you could think of. Near by stores, eateries, wineries, breweries and caverns.

Great house!
Great views and the house has so many interesting things. Plenty of books, games and old movies to occupy the kids. Only bummer was the pool had an algae bloom so we couldn't swim which took some of the wind out of the sails but plenty of other stuff to do. The ladies liked the nearby shops and I liked the quiet. Caretaker was awesome to talk to as well!

Fantastic Stay
Our stay at this farmhouse was just wonderful. So peaceful and relaxing and we had some of the most beautiful views. The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed, with the exception of no wifi (cellular service is terrible in the area if you’re on ATT or Verizon). The pool was refreshing as it was really hot there the week we stayed. Lastly the animals are super friendly. We enjoyed taking our 2 dogs for a walk every day and visiting the goats, pig and horse. Thank you Linda for being a wonderful host.

Large Charming Farmhouse
We had 7 people and there was plenty of space! The house had everything we needed with the exception of ice and was clean. A few chairs are older and could stand to be replaced. The new mattresses on the beds were great but are speaky for the two rooms with box springs. The kitchen is well-appointed for cooking. Overall, we had a great stay!

Quiet farm get-away
Our family had a great time at this cozy farmhouse. The house itself was more spacious than expected, and we were able to use the movie and music rooms as extra bedrooms (with air mattresses that we brought). There are 3 eating areas (the breakfast nook, the formal dining room, and the outdoor picnic deck). There is no WiFi at the house. The kids (and even the adults) loved interacting with all of the farm animals!

Family Friendly Fun
We stayed with our 4 kids (aged 1-8). We had family stay with us as well during a portion of our stay. We loved the views, the animals, and the charm of the home. We didn't have the best weather during our trip, but there were games and movies at the home to entertain us. My kid's favorite activity by far was visiting with the animals multiple times a day. There is a horse, pic, goats, and chickens. There is a fenced in in ground pool that was unfortunately out of order during our stay, but the weather wasn't pool weather anyways. The host was very responsive to messages and very accommodating. There's a lot of fun to be had locally and within short driving distances (frontier center, Shenandoah National Park, blue ridge tunnel, wineries, breweries, monticello, etc.) We are very grateful for the memories made and happy with our choice in VRBO.

Cozy But Big Farmhouse with Farm Animals
Our family enjoyed staying at this cozy farmhouse with farm animals on a huge property, which was quite peaceful. The farmhouse was quite spacious with lots of rooms on the bottom floor (mud room, open kitchen, breakfast nook, big dining room with a big bay window, movie/gaming room, study room with telescopes and piano, bathroom, and a great room with lots of book and board games, as well as space for everyone to gather). The upstairs had 3 big bedrooms with lots of beds in the rooms as well as a bunk bed outside the master, as well as two full bathrooms with one in the hallway and one in the master. Lots of amenities; love the decor. Excellent communication, providing info about checking in and checkout. Only minor issue (mainly with the kids playing games on their tablets in various rooms) with WiFi, which is a hotspot located in the kitchen, so WiFi spotty or non-existent if not within the hotspot range). Overall a very enjoyable experience and would definitely stay again. Highly recommend! Thank you!

Farm House
We stayed here to celebrate our good friend who is getting married (there were 8 of us total)! Overall, we had a good experience! Pros: The house was clean and very spacious! There were several rooms that we did not even use. The house was well stocked with blankets, towels, pool towels, and silverware, dishwater, mugs, etc. There was a fire pit and lawn games (corn hole) that we used almost every night! The house is also very close to some local breweries, wineries, and hiking and about 30 minutes to downtown Charlottesville- great location! Cons: There was no wifi. We weren’t able to use the pool during our visit because of an algae issue, this is something that we were all looking forward to use as part of the amenities. An earlier review mentioned the algae issue, so it would have been nice to know that this was not resolved prior to us arriving. Also, there was a mouse in the house that we trapped in the downstairs bathroom on our last night. We understand there may be rodents due to the farm and animals but this is not something we wanted to see during our trip. I contacted the host due to these issues and am awaiting to hear a response to see if we are able to get any money back. Overall, we would definitely visit the area again but probably look for an alternate place to stay due to some of the issues that we personally experienced during our trip.

Great location near Nelson 151
We loved the location, and it's was fun to visit with the animals. Wish we were able to sample some of the chicken eggs. There is a bit of deferred maintenance, some water damage in the kitchen. Would also have been great if there was a hair dryer available, especially as the weather gets colder. All in all a fun stay at a farm with a great location.

A quiet escape near many activities
The farm is a perfect base camp for enjoying Nelson County and the 151 byway. It is quiet and peaceful but still super close if looking to enjoy hiking Humpback (can be seen from the property), enjoying the craft beer and wine trail, or enjoying the seasonal activities - an evening corn maze was a highlight. Kitchen has ample space to cook or set up a buffet of takeout from the roadside BBQ and weekend food trucks frequently found at the nearby breweries. And the season decor in the farmhouse adds ambiance to the great togetherness time the property inspires.
