About the host
Hosted by Alba Maria Shank
A Charlottesville native, Maria grew up in this house until she went off to college to become a veterinarian. Some years, 3 states, one husband, 3 kids, oodles of pets, and a few jobs later, she's delighted to be back in the area to share Kenwood with others. Maria and Curtis hope you feel as happy and peaceful here as she did growing up.
Why they chose this property
My old stomping grounds! Very little has changed in the Greenbrier neighborhood, even though Charlottesville has changed and grown a lot!! It's still a great place to take a walk or a run, and you might just see a few deer grazing in the front yard!!
What makes this property unique
Our home is one of the very few available for stays in this neighborhood. We make sure our guests feel right at home by providing the basics ahead of time - snacks, coffee, tea, and other beverages. We live locally so there's no impersonal property management party to deal with if you need anything.
