About this property

Large Country House Near Monticello, UVA, Wineries

Besides the overwhelming beauty of the 27 acres in the historic Green Springs district, the Three Notches Tourist Home is 25 The Three Notches Tourist Home will charm you with its antiques, spacious rooms, beautiful mountain views, porch rockers and peace and quiet. After nearly 200 guest stays, I can say with confidence that folks greatly enjoy and appreciate their time here. Come to read, talk, work, or do nothing at all. Twenty-five minutes east of Charlottesville and under an hour to many attractions in the Piedmont area of Virginia like Monticello, Montpelier, and too many breweries and wineries to name, and is only an hour from Richmond. For essentials, there is a modern shopping center ten minutes away with several casual restaurants and groceries.

We had a group of 6 stay for a long weekend and it was a fantastic experience. The house is a wonderful mix of old meets new that we all really enjoyed. Plenty of space, clean, quiet and close enough to lots of wineries and attractions. Our host was responsive and courteous in all communications. Lots of time was spent on the porch enjoying our company. Would definitely recommend staying here!

This home was the perfect spot for our relaxing girls trip. The location is peaceful and beautiful. The house is large, comfortable, and well stocked. We visited several wineries and spent some time in Charlottesville. Our favorite part was just sitting on the porch with morning coffee and watching the deer as the sun set in the evening.

We stayed in this beautiful Va farmhouse while in the area for a family reunion. It is perfectly located a short distance from Charlottesville. The porch is amazing and the home is lovingly furnished. All of the little touches were so appreciated! It was like stepping back in time. The clawfoot tub is fabulous. The newel post is beautiful and the chandeliers?? I can't say enough. This is not your average VRBO. There was plenty of space for the kids to run and we enjoyed watching the horses at the farm from across the street. It is very quiet with almost no light pollution and we enjoyed star gazing too! We give Lee and her farm house two thumbs way up!

First Family Vacation in Years

This fourth of July family vacation was the first in many years as well as special as our your youngest son who joined the Marine Corp two years ago July 4th. He joined us unexpectedly as well as introduced us to his girlfriend (also a Marine). Wife was surprised and pleased. My oldest son also joined and introduced his partner to the family mob. So, with nine adults in the house and one grandchild this house was perfect for us. This house is amazing. Owner leaves her personal touch all over the house, it was wonderful. The game room was of course a big hit with the kids. Plenty of room outside as well for everyone to run around and play. Lots of room and we all got the best sleep do to the quietness of no one nearby. The view for sunset and sunrise were AWESOME. We are also there for a sick family member, so the house was only 20 minutes from Louisa where my family was. Highly recommend this home. You will not regret renting it. Owner was amazing.

About the host

Hosted by Lee Knapp

Host profile image
I am a newly retired public school history teacher who has been hosting this house for a dozen years. I also run a small art business from my basement called grammarstuff dot com. I have three grown sons and two adorable grandsons.

Why they chose this property

This property is a dream. The view of the blue mountains across the street and the dozen or so horses never disappoints. Out back is a very quiet retreat where you can just relax and hear yourself think. It is also ten minutes from groceries and supplies and 25 minutes from fun Charlottesville and 40 from a huge shopping area west of Richmond. All highway driving. The best of all worlds.

What makes this property unique

My house is filled with very personal items I have inherited or collected over many years of "junque" shopping. It's a new house (2006) with all of the amenities, yet you feel like you are in a grandma's house, because you are! Because I am! The location is also great.
