About the host
Hosted by BEA
Why they chose this property
Having a total of 66 acres of woods and privacy is what inspired us to build Deer Ridge.
Besides being totally secluded, it is only minutes to Monticello, Ashlawn/Highland, Jefferson, Blenheim and Trump Wineries and 15 minutes to Charlottesville.
Besides being totally secluded, it is only minutes to Monticello, Ashlawn/Highland, Jefferson, Blenheim and Trump Wineries and 15 minutes to Charlottesville.
What makes this property unique
Careful planning has gone into every aspect of it's construction, from the actual setting of the cabin for the sunny kitchen/back porch mornings to the viewing of the setting sun from the front porch. Each stone in the chimney and fireplace have been handpicked, along with the sawmill cut boards on the walls to the individually wooden hand-pegged red oak floors. Rick and I have worked for nearly 2 years building Deer Ridge in order to bring it to life and are currently offering it for others to enjoy.
Located only minutes from local major Historic Sites, 3 Wineries and only 15 minutes to Charlottesville.
Perfect for a quick getaway, lodging for members of a wedding party for those celebrating at nearby Ash Lawn/Highland, a honeymoon/marriage retreat or just for a quiet family vacation.
