Well-stocked house out in country

The house has lots of space—really good sized rooms—and plenty of towels, linens, outdoor furniture and equipment, etc. to make your stay comfortable. Beautiful view of the mountains and incredible stars on a clear night. We stayed for my daughter’s graduation from JMU and it was close enough to be convenient.

Excellent Accomodations

We had a wonderful time staying at this property. Close enough to the city - but far enough from the chaos. Enjoyed a JMU game and a hike the next day. The cinnamon rolls and apples provided by the owner were an extra special (and delicious) surprise!

Cozy, Cute, disconnected from the world home

We loved our home away from home. It was a last minute get away and It was just what we needed to relax and just enjoy each others company. We spent the day visiting loval wineries and ended our night with a warm fire on a cold night! We would definitely stay again!

A true get-away

Without the potential of TV or WiFi, this rental truly allows a feeling of liberation from modernity and the fast pace of life. Big beautiful yard and nice large rooms for gathering of friends for games and chats and music

JMU Graduation 2024

Fri & Sat night in Mid May. Just like it’s listed. Beautiful. Country. Gravel roads. Pond in the very back of house. 3 bedrms, 2 bath. Big den/living room. Kitchen was ready for us coffee drinkers! Nice snacks & homemade danish ❤️. Comfy beds, quiet surroundings, beautiful horses, and I wish we had more time to hang out in the neighborhood. Fire pit ready to go. Deck is really nice. Bit of a drive to JMU, but…. The drive is beautiful.

Homey and peaceful

The house was very homey and peaceful. It was out in the country. I woke up to a beautiful sunrise and 2 horses right outside my window next door. The beds were very comfy. There was no water dispenser in the fridge, so the host left us plenty of bottled water. There were several options for coffee. A basket of bars and cinnamon rolls were left on the counter. There were ample towels and wash cloths. These were all thoughtful touches. My only slight complaint is that the carpet was pretty stained and dated. It probably needs to be updated at some point. Everything else was great! I wish we’d had the opportunity to use the firepit to make s’more’s with the supplies provided and to play some of the games provided. But we were only in town for a running race. I would definitely recommend this place if you want to unplug!
