Cattle farm getaway in Virginia's best wine & beer country! Fiber Optic Wi-Fi!

Retreat to an easily accessible getaway in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains! This house is perfect for families, travel nurses, telecommuters, parents of graduating university students, easy-going cowboys and cowgirls, and respectful bachelor/bachelorette trips. We are a short 2.5-hr drive SW from DC and 1.5-hr drive west of Richmond. Leave the hustle and bustle behind, and recharge in the mountain air! Located on Nelson29 and 20-minutes from Nelson151, our cottage is nestled within our multi-generational cattle farm. Wake up to sunrises over the pond with a cup of locally roasted coffee and toast a glass to cotton candy sunsets behind the mountains at dusk! Don't let the frogs nightly serenade lull you to sleep before the stars come out! Watch the cycles of the farm's hay production through the year and meet our cows! Craft memories around our handmade farm tables from oak trees on property! Our cottage has luxury memory foam mattresses for a great night's sleep, multiple Smart TVs with Hulu, fiber optic Wi-Fi for telecommuters, a sunroom with 180-views of the farm perfect for yoga, a fully furnished kitchen with settings for 12+, and games for inside and outdoors that will keep you busy, when you're not hiking, hunting, riding, fishing, off-roading, golfing, skiing/snowboarding, biking, kayaking, spectating, and tasting your way around the area.

Looking for fun things to do nearby? Catch a game at the Nelson County High School (across the street), at Liberty University (31 min.), or UVA (39 min)! Stock up on wine, beer, and spirits at some of our favorite local award-winning breweries, wineries, and distilleries, including: Blue Mountain Brewery Barrelhouse, Lovingston Winery, Virginia Distillery, Woodridge Farm Brewery, Bold Rock Cidery, Three-Notched Brewery, Devils Backbone Brewing and Distillery Company, Veritas, and Pippin Hill Farm & Vineyards! We are happy to help with tour/transportation vendor recommendations! Pick apples, peaches, blueberries, strawberries, pumpkins, and cherries at the local orchards, depending on the season! We have Drumheller's Orchard directly across the street! Ski or snowboard the winter slopes at Wintergreen, where your host once taught kids to ski! Golf an array of 4-season courses in the area, including Stoney Creek! Cast your line in our catch and release pond or one of the many local lakes, streams, or rivers! (Equipment is not provided. We can try to put you in contact with a local guide if you want to learn to fish.) Hike the many local trails for all skill levels from the Virginia Blue Ridge Railway Trail to the Priest on the Appalachian Trail to explore the local flora and fauna! Peruse local art at the Heart of Nelson Artisan Collective's shop in the quaint village of Lovingston! Take a tour of Thomas Jefferson's home, Monticello! Blast down one of the Neveplast tubing runs or ski in all four seasons on the slopes at Liberty Mountain Snowflex Centre! Sunday drive the Skyline Drive to leaf peep in the Fall! Enjoy a summer rodeo at Oak Ridge Estate, Farmers' Markets in Nellysford & Lovingston, and local festivals around Charlottesville, Lynchburg, and Staunton! Bring your racket for a round of tennis when class isn't in session across the street! Come be a farmhand for a day...like how we slid that one in at the end?! (Just kidding, unless there is a calf to bottle feed.). But you get it, there is always something to do.

Need a private chef? We've got an on-call trained chef available to book separately for an extra fee.

Traveling with babies and little kids? We're happy to set up the ball pit and pack & play in the sunroom, give all the local playground/library/park/activity recs, or help you arrange the additional rental of a Snoo!
