Om boendet

Vacker, ombyggd stuga i hjÀrtat av Afton

Ligger i George Washington National Forest, Ă€r Gracewood ett retrĂ€tt frĂ„n den mentala och kĂ€nslomĂ€ssiga aktiviteten i vardagen. Huset har nyligen renoverats som en bekvĂ€m miljö för par eller smĂ„ familjer som vill ha en paus. Vi hĂ„ller meditation retreats hĂ€r tvĂ„ gĂ„nger om Ă„ret, sĂ„ det skulle fungera bra för en författare eller konstnĂ€r eller en kontemplativ. ÄndĂ„ Ă€r det avslappnande och lĂ€ka för alla.

PÄ övervÄningen finns ett fullt modernt kök med nya apparater. Vi gjorde stugan sÄ fin att vi kunde bo dÀr bekvÀmt om vi valde att göra det. Det finns ocksÄ en matsal och en bekvÀm full size futon soffa. (MÄnga futons Àr inte sÄ bekvÀma. Vi Àger ett ekologiskt madrassföretag, sÄ madrassen och ramen Àr bÀst.)

NedervÄningen Àr en queen size madrass och en annan utmÀrkt futon soffa (eller sÀng). Vi har ocksÄ nÄgra bekvÀma sittplatser. Vi anvÀnder Savvy Rest organiska sÀngklÀder.

Inom 12 minuter finns flera bryggerier, vingÄrdar och en cidery.

Fastigheten Àr 39 + hektar, med 1/2 mil lÀngs Meriwether Creek. Vattenvolymen varierar med sÀsongen, men kÀnslan av energi Àr alltid kraftfull, lugnande och rensning. Det finns cirka tvÄ miles av privata spÄr som Àr lÀmpliga för vandring eller löpning. SpÄr Àr vÀl markerade och en karta finns tillgÀnglig.

Under Ätta Är har vi sett nÄgra björnar, raccoons, groundhogs, fladdermöss, massor av boxsköldpaddor, nÄgra ormar, ett stort antal fÄglar, tillsammans med mycket hjort och andra vilda djur. Vi tog bilder av vad som verkade vara bobcat spÄr en vinter, men vi har inte sett nollarna.

Observera att det inte finns nÄgon tv. Internet Àr tillförlitligt lÄngsamt, sÄ du kan inte strömma filmer; och celltjÀnsten inuti stugan Àr intermittent, men precis utanför det brukar det vara ganska tillförlitligt. SÄ det Àr relativt enkelt att koppla ur.

Observera ocksÄ att den största queen size-sÀngen Àr nere, och badrummet Àr pÄ övervÄningen om du stÄr upp pÄ natten. Vi har ocksÄ en full size madrass pÄ övervÄningen om det behövs.

Det finns underbara musikaliska hÀndelser vÄren att falla. SkidÄkning pÄ Wintergreen pÄ vintern.

Levande musik pÄ vÄr charmiga bondens marknad i Nellysford pÄ lördagar maj till november.

Cottage was exactly as described. Very clean. The grounds gave a great opportunity to hike in the morning and relax in the evening. Right in the middle of many great wineries and breweries. We will definitely be back.

Weekend in Nelson County / Charlottesville

We stayed here for a weekend in the area. We went to a concert in Charlottesville on Saturday night and this was a great, quiet location for us to get to the concert and also enjoy a few places along 151. We enjoyed our stay, though it was a rainy weekend so we didn't get to enjoy the property or the many trails on the property as I had hoped. Great accommodations if you don't mind the bed on the lower level and the bath up. We didn't have an issue with that and the owners are very upfront about that detail. They were very responsive and the details about the property are spot on. Thanks!

We had a great time at the cottage. It is located conveniently to Skyline Drive. We were able to pick some chestnuts at a Virginia Chestnut farm. Paulie's Pig Out just down the road had tasty BBQ.

Michael and Heather are some of the best hosts we’ve encountered. They were kind, responsive and knocked hospitality out of the park. The unit was clean and comfortable. There were thoughtful details throughout in an incredibly peaceful place. If you are looking for a true getaway with incredible hosts, I could not recommend this more.

Great place for a weekend recharge

Lovely, quiet getaway cottage. Beautiful hiking trails and stream on the property. We'd planned to stop by a local coffee shop but arrived too late, however, we were delighted to find some coffee beans waiting for us for the next morning. There was also a bowl of fruit on the counter which we enjoyed over the weekend. The hosts met us upon arrival and offered suggestions, if we'd like. They also left a binder with nearby restaurants, hikes and attractions. Would absolutely book again.

 I reserved this lovely home on short notice as I was having work done on my home in the area and could not stay while it was performed. The owners were very hospitable and there were so many wonderful touches about the home to make me feel welcome! The tranquility and peacefulness of this home makes for a great getaway from hustle and bustle of everyday life. Trails are right at the property, Wineries, Breweries, Restaurants nearby, plus Wintergreen and Charlottesville only 20-30 minutes away. Don't miss out on vacationing at this wonderful property. You will not regret it!

Gracewood is an excellent VRBO!

We loved our stay at the Gracewood Cottage. Michael and Heather are fantastic hosts, and are extremely accessible, since they live next door. The area is so quiet and peaceful. We really enjoyed getting out and walking the trails that they had thoughtfully marked on the property. The Cottage is beautifully decorated and thoughtfully appointed throughout. We went to the Blue Ridge Rail Tunnel trail, Crabtree Falls, Crozet (Smoked Taproom and Grill was really good), Humpback Rocks. We checked out a few wineries. We would definitely stay here again! [Cook's Notes: I do this for all VRBOs, I cooked in every Breakfast and Dinner, there are few dine-in options that are close by, however, we ordered ribs and sides from Paulie's Pig Out one night, and it was superb. The kitchen had most everything I needed. Bring a good knife, and any spices/sauces/seasonings you may need (there was salt/pepper, and someone left a bag of Jasmine Rice). There is a small grocery store in Nellysford (IGA) and the Dollar General actually has a surprising array of dry goods and baking needs. The closest Kroger is in Waynesboro, so plan accordingly. ]

Om vÀrden

Michael and Heather Penny Àr vÀrd

VĂ€rdens profilbild
Heather and Michael met in a yoga ashram in 1976 and were married in 1982. We have always had an interest in what makes everything work, particularly human nature. Although we have both started successful businesses, we are teachers at heart.

We love meeting like minded people and sharing the beauty and serenity of our property. It has been transformative for us and many friends.

We have two wonderful adult children--one a hydrologist and one self-employed in IT.

Varför vÀrden valde detta boende

We had been looking at property for years. Heather was on retreat in Brazil when this property came on the market; but once we had both seen it, we gave up looking anywhere else.

Nelson County is so beautiful, and being in the George Washington National Forest is like Eden.
It's so easy to calm the mind and relieve emotional stresses here.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

2 Miles well maintained walking trails, 1/2 mile along a bubbling creek.
Serenity beyond words.
Breweries and Wineries galore.
Nice restaurants nearby.
4.5 mile walk to Humpback Rocks on the Blue Ridge Parkway, 2.5 miles to Shenandoah National Park.
Ekornes Stressless chairs from Norway.
Savvy Rest organic bedding throughout, although the main mattress on the Murphy bed could not tolerate the weight of an organic mattress. The bedding on top is all certified organic.
Low EMF Environment: Cell phones don't work in the cottage, and you can unplug the wireless router.
Environmentally friendly cleaning supplies.
Real china dishware & mugs.
Stainless steel pots and pans.
