We have stayed here before and this property never fails to disappoint. The owner is responsive to our needs, and the space is always perfectly clean. We had to use the kitchen this time to cook a meal for a larger group at a horse show we were attending, and the kitchen was great and well stocked. Check in was a breeze, and flexible to our schedule. A big THANK YOU to our fabulous hosts!

This is an amazing property! Once we turned off the main highway, we realized that this was the perfect location for our stay in Lexington. It is a beautiful property, peaceful environment , with two hospitable and attentive hosts. Daily we encountered deer, and once a flock of wild turkey. The mountains in the distance are remarkable! We recommend this listing to anyone wanting to experience the Virginia countryside and the surrounding area of Lexington. Thank you again for sharing your piece of heaven with us!

Stunning views and warm hospitality

We loved our stay at this beautiful property with sweeping views of the Rockbridge hills and Blue Ridge mountains. Doris and Dennis are such generous hosts, and we had so much fun meeting the horses and Jake! The apartment is so cozy and had everything we needed. We only wish we could have spent more time there, and we can’t wait to return for another stay.

One of the best experiences we've had with vrbo! Dennis and Doris were lovely couple, very kind and accommodating. The loft apt was just right and the view of the mountains incredible. Our son loved walking out in the morning to feed the horses. It was so peaceful and relaxing. Very convenient to Lexington. We had a wonderful time.

Historic Mountain Getaway

This is a wonderful mountain getaway on a working horse farm minutes from downtown Lexington. From the moment we booked, almost a month in advance, we received great communication from our Host Doris. Our accommodations were well-appointed and comfortable. Doris provided fresh eggs and milk and all of the drawers were well stocked with spices and cookware. Both Doris and Dennis made time for us to chat when we saw them during our stay. We appreciated their hospitality and their charming getaway. We definitely would stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Doris A Greywall

Host profile image
A number of years ago we retired to rural Virginia. We purchased active farm land, built a home, large barn, padlocks and a horse arena. We own several horses, and usually board several more.

Why they chose this property

Our farm is off the main road, and we have spectacular views of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Lexington is an old fashioned, but very active town 5 miles away. Lexington is home to both the Virginia Military Institute and Washington & Lee University.
