It was a fantastic place for our group. There was plenty of space, the pool was amazing and it was close enough to wineries and breweries to drive the 15-20 minutes. The open concept kitchen and long kitchen table is perfect. The owner was super responsive and check in was very smooth.

Family wedding trip

We had an amazing stay while in the area to attend our granddaughter's wedding. It was a perfect place for our family to spend time together. The younger grandchildren had plenty of space to play together. It was a great experience and throughout the process the host was very quick to respond to any questions. Thank you for helping our family make some amazing memories.

Beauitful peaceful home in the mountains

Met up with family for vacation, and the home was excellent. The mountain views are peaceful and inviting, and the home has lots of light and space to enjoy it. My 3 year old son really loved the pool, and my wife and I really enjoyed the firepit in the evenings. The kitchen had lots of pots and utsensils for cooking a family meal, and the big table made it easy to eat together. I would definitely stay again, the house was very clean and comfortable.

Absolutely gorgeous house and setting

We had an amazing time celebrating a bride to be at this property. Pictures don't do it justice. The property was absolutely stunning. The pool was amazing-we spent a lot of our days there! Fire pit was great overlooking the landscape. Also loved the cows! House was perfect and came with everything we needed.so many of the girls on the trip mentioned they want to come back with their families! Also a great location, close to so many of the best wineries in the area. Host was so communicative and helpful! Can't wait to come back.

As Advertised - Beautiful - Excellent

This home is exactly as advertised! The view from the pool is beautiful... nothing but mountains and a few cows in the distance. The Firepit was great to sit around, laugh and relax… the stars were amazing! The home is very clean, stocked with games (cornhole, cards, foosball, frisbee golf) and household items (kitchen and bathroom). The response time from the owner was minutes and the entire process was fantastic!

Great place for a family

We really enjoyed our stay and the house is just as it is pictured--lots of living space for our 2 families! The kitchen and living room are spacious and the bedrooms are very nice. The only thing is I counted the living room sleep sofa in for bedding but we did not find it was a sleep sofa. Otherwise, all was perfect and enjoyed by all--including a wonderful fire pit!!

start planning your visit!

Our girls’ weekend at Rock Spring Mountain Farm could not have been more perfect! The location was beautiful and tucked away, allowing for an incredibly peaceful and private setting. We were within 30 minutes of each of our destinations, including wineries, breweries, and downtown Charlottesville which allowed us to make the most of our time away. The home itself was sparkling clean when we arrived and offered every amenity we needed while sleeping 11 women (ages 26-60) quite comfortably ☺️ The back deck was a great hangout spot for games with a picturesque view, and we honestly could not have asked for more! Thank you so much to Randy for his prompt responses, recommendations, and for being a very attentive host! We hope to come back sometime soon and recommend that you do the same!

Great farmhouse for family reunion

Farmhouse was exactly as advertised and as in pictures. Super clean and well organized -- all the amenities you could want, well labeled, for a great weekend family reunion. Plenty of bed space well distributed, proximity to Charlottesville was great. We even used the firepit. As Randy, the owner said, the only thing guests need to bring is food. Randy was very accommodating, easy to communicate with, and responsive. Highly recommend.

Girls weekend away

This property was extremely clean and well cared for and ready for us when we arrived. The owner was very responsive and even brought us farm fresh eggs and a bag of coffee beans. There were plenty of places to sleep and enough bathrooms to comfortably accommodate 10 women. Everything worked as it should. The only problem we had was with the tv. We never could get it to work, even after calling the owner. However, this could easily be attributed to operator error. We loved our stay and would recommend to everyone! Cannot wait to go back!

About the host

Hosted by Randy Sklar

Halie and I love to travel with and without our five children to our homes and other places as far away as Italy, France, and all over the USA!

We are continually looking for new adventures and experiences!

We spend many weekends at our Mountain Home in Lovingston, Va. and as much time at our Beach Home in Siesta Key, Fl.

When Halie and I started hosting at our mountain getaway home in 2015, we wanted to create the same enjoyable experience we get when visiting our homes - for our guests.

Through the process of asking for suggestions, make improvements, and learning from other experiences when we travel, we believe we are providing an enjoyable experience. The constant positive reviews and super host status tell us we are on the right track.

Our favorite part of hosting is reading our guest book and getting personal messages about how great their stay was at our homes. I feel we aren’t just hosting guests rather providing vacation experiences focused on creating lasting memories for you, your families, and your friends.

The greatest feeling is when a group comes back for a second, third, or many more vacation experiences.

Why they chose this property

After searching for years for another home in Nelson County we decided to purchase a farm and build our own home. Built for our family to share with yours, we feel we have the perfect place to connect families in a meaningful way.

What makes this property unique

Close to Charlottesville yet far enough to feel secluded. Bringing experiences for you and your family to enjoy without hassle. That's our dream and goal.
