We enjoy this house very much. We have stayed in both units and I like A better than B but I don't know why. This property is less than 2 miles from our daughter so we will use it every time we come up to spend time with her, if we can. We will also use it any other time we are in the area.

Approximately 1.5 miles to the Rivanna River boat launch- kayak ,tube, canoe or fish. Pleasant grove for a walk or go to the swimming hole. Historic Palmyra.
