This place is beautiful if you enjoy nature and animals. There are horses all over the place and the home is very cute and clean. I would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a night off the grid with all the comforts of home

Beautiful horse farm and pristine house

This was the perfect Memorial Day get-away with myself and my adult children and their SOs. As soon as they got out of the car, they were in awe of the horses and goats. House had all amenities needed with a large fire pit for nice bonfires. We visited a winery and hiked Hawksbill during our stay, but there is a lot more to do in the area, even though it seems as you’re secluded.. Definitely would recommend.

Perfect for our needs

My family stayed for two nights over the holidays. Lisa was immediately responsive to our questions and needs. The central kitchen/living area was comfortable and perfect for coffee time in the mornings. We enjoyed watching the horses.

Had a great experience, Lisa was very patient and understanding with all my questions- the house was cute and tucked away. Plenty of room to walk- due to rain was limited.

Great stay, highly recommended!

From the cleanliness of the property, to the little touches throughout. We can't say enough about how much we enjoyed our state. Located on a active horse ranch, we really felt like we managed to get away from it all on our stay. We even took advantage of the available Horse Trail rides, and everyone had a great time.

We loved staying at this cabin. The farm is beautiful and relaxing. We enjoyed swimming in the river and taking a walk. It was so relaxing and wonderful. And it is so good to know that host is at a stone throw if we needed anything. We would definitely stay there again.

This is an excellent property with much to see from landscapes to animals. The home is well equipped and clean. The amenities are plentiful. We cannot wait to return. This could be an annual destination. Lisa was very responsive to questions and accommodating to several itinerary changes.

Our party of 8 needed a place to stay for graduation ceremonies at JMU. We now wish we'd come just to enjoy the animals, river, and fire pit. Beautiful location and wonderful hosts...I hope we can make it back!
