About this property

Oak Tree Cottage: Beautiful farm with mountain views.

Our four bedroom cottage is located in Waynesboro, VA at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The Skyline Drive and the Blue Ridge Parkway meet here, so it's a perfect place for your family to meet too!

We are adjacent to the George Washington and Jefferson National Forest and the Sherando Lake Recreation Area, and only fourteen miles from the skiing, golfing and tennis at Wintergreen Resort. Yet we are yet so easy to get to -- tucked in the crossroads of Interstates 81 and 64, only five miles from exit 96 on Interstate 64. We are only 27 miles from the University of Virginia and Monticello in Charlottesville, VA and only 150 miles from Washington, DC.

Oak Tree Cottage sits in the edge of the forest, overlooking the open fields of our 1,000-acre farm and the Blue Ridge mountains. We have hiking trails, wildlife and bird watching galore, and restored meadows. In early September, monarch butterflies migrate through the farm.

Relax and enjoy nature or head out to explore nearby wineries, breweries, history, biking events, the Appalachian Trail or the arts. We are a great home base to explore Virginia!

The first floor of the house has a living room, a full kitchen with island, a large dining table with seating for nine, a glass-walled room that provides a full view of the forest, as well as two bedrooms and a full bath. On the second floor, there are two more bedrooms and another full bath. The house has hot- water baseboard heat. We also have a private pool available for the use of our guests. There is no lifeguard on duty.

Small weddings are allowed on property for an additional fee. Please inquire if you are interested.

Our second stay here was even better than the first! Wonderful hosts, great location. Everything we needed for a relaxing family vacation. A highlight was our hike at nearby St. Mary's Wilderness. No steep slopes, beautiful mountain stream and waterfall. Go early in the day (parking is a bit limited).

Spring Retreat

Oak Tree Cottage provided a beautiful place for our group of older friends to enjoy time together. Sleeping arrangements were perfect for our group. We loved being outside on the deck or by the pool and also enjoyed the dining/gathering space across the back of the house overlooking the woods. The hosts were super nice and helpful. A wonderful stay!

This location is ideal for hiking the trails accessible from the Blue Ridge Parkway and Skyline Drive. The home is on 1,000 acres and feels very private since the owner's home is the only other house on the property. We were pleased with both the cleanliness of the home and the comfort of the bed. The owners, Karen and Dave, were very hospitable hosts who made sure that we had everything that we needed for a pleasant stay. We did hike a bit on the property and saw a lot of deer while walking. I don't think you will regret choosing this home.

An amazing, gorgeous property! The house was exactly as described but the view was even better in person. It was stocked with everything we needed, clean/ready to go, and check in/out instructions were easy to follow. Bonus that the owner was such a delight to talk to!

Beautiful stay with a big group!

We traveled here with 6 adults and 3 children and had a wonderful time! The cottage is in a beautiful location and close enough to get to stores and restaurants. It’s incredibly clean, well-appointed and perfect for big groups. The owners are very friendly. We enjoyed exploring outside and playing games with the kids. There are also lots of hiking options nearby. We were there for a wedding but we would definitely come back!

Oak Tree Cottage

A perfect three generation weekend! The house and property was exactly as described which I've found to be unusual. Having the fenced in pool was perfect for our three young children. The hosts were wonderful - both before our stay answering questions and responding quickly to any questions we had during our stay. I highly recommend Oak Tree Cottage!

Quiet, secluded, peaceful property

My wife and I came with a couple of our adult sons and two close family friends. We had a wonderful, relaxing vacation. The pool and the cottage are immaculately clean. The owners live right on the other side of the pool and are SO nice. They even brought over some fresh tomatoes from their garden! And the yummy snacks that greeted us in the kitchen when we arrived were such a nice touch. Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Karen Quillen

Host profile image

My husband and I have three grown children. We love food and we love the outdoors. Dave has been working to restore the native meadows on the farm. The farm also has globally rare wetlands with rare salamanders and plants. It's a great place to walk and enjoy nature.

I love history and I am an interpreter of history at Monticello, which is only 33 miles away. I also love to knit and to sew.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location! It is stunningly beautiful. So easy to get to, yet still so private.

What makes this property unique

We love sitting on our front porch, looking at the mountains and watching the wildlife on the farm. We worked with an architect to design and build our home so it fits the farm. The guest cottage is located about 250 feet from our home. We respect the privacy of our guests but we hope they will call us if they need anything or have any questions. We're right next door!
