About this property
Richmond Retreat by Raydarr Properties, LLC
Older home with lots of character, walking distance to downtown Richmond. Very convenient location, close to anything you want. Located about 2 miles off of I-75. The house has 2 bedrooms, and 1 bath. There is a queen size bed in both of the bedrooms, and a futon in the living room. If you like the outdoors, we have a side porch with a swing, and a sitting area in the yard with a fish pond. The driveway goes behind the house for parking and is quite narrow, which can be a challenge for large vehicles. There is plenty of room in the driveway out front for parking if you are unable to pass through, which is also safe. The driveway side of the backyard is open, so the yard is not fully fenced.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

We really enjoyed sitting on the porch. We appreciated the many extras available in the kitchen. The owners seem to be laid back which made for a relaxing stay.
Super clean house, every room was beautiful and smelled so clean. The area felt safe and you are close to tons of stores and restaurants. The host was very nice and friendly. Pet friendly for sure, they even have a dog bed and bowls. The host even had snacks and breakfast foods and drinks. The old charm of the house was so cozy.
Beautiful and charming home very close to downtown Richmond and the interstate, Only 20 minutes from Lexington. Home has very thoughtful touches and many amenities. We were invited to enjoy drinks and waters in the fridge which was so appreciated, Beds were extremely supportive and comfortable. Furniture is well kept and beautiful. Home was very clean and comfy. We appreciated that we could take our 17 year old dog who needs daily meds. He loved sitting on the porch in the breeze. Will definitely visit again.
Everything about the host and this beautiful house was absolutely perfect!! We enjoyed the house, and the area had may things to do for all different types of people (activities). We went there simply for a graduation at EKU and ended up falling in love with the area!!
This is our second time staying at this property. We feel very comfortable there and will be back next month visiting our family.Very clean and has everything we need to feel like home.
I was skeptical of a perfect rating by over 100 guests. Not anymore . I added my own perfect rating. Why? Because of over the top touches. We were in town for a wedding. Hadn't brought groceries and after so many hours in a car, didn't want to go back out. Delighted to find many breakfast choices awaiting us. The house is darling, and the side porch a real.delight.
Wonderful home. It comfy and very clean. We absolutely loved our stay. We can from Wisconsin to bring my youngest son to EKU. Its close to everything. Seriously feltt like home.
Nice place home away from home. Would recommend to family and friends communication with Mr. Chandler was excellent. This was better than a hotel experience would stay here again
