Virginia cottage rentals

WE STAYED FOR A LONG WEEKEND AND TO ENJOY A VIRGINIA DARE CRUISE. THIS HOME WAS ABOUT A 40 MINUTE DRIVE FROM THEN LAKE BUT THE COUNTRYSIDE WAS SO BEAUTIFUL THAT IT DIDN'T MATTER. THE RENTAL WAS AS EXPECTED AND WHILE NOT FAR FROM THE MAIN ROAD IT WAS SO QUIET AND PEACEFUL. WOU;D DEFINITELY STAY AGAIN.

The cottage is a treasure and the island is beautiful. Wonderful views of herons and other wildlife always outside the back windows! Our family of six (including four teenage boys) stayed comfortably at the house. It felt like borrowing a friend's well-stocked vacation home. Plenty of kitchen gear and dishes for cooking (which we used several nights). Things to consider: to access the Gloucester Point area, you must cross a draw bridge. It is a cool bridge to cross, but every time you go into Gloucester, you must pay a 2 toll. Also, you can be delayed if a ship is crossing. We had to wait 15-20 minutes one morning on our way to Williamsburg. Also, the property is well-decorated and cozy, but not brand new, and has a few quirks. We had some small ants in the kitchen, but the hosts had some bait traps out. Overall, I would highly recommend this unique stay if you are coming to the area!

This was a perfect setting for what we needed. The house was well equipted and very pretty. The kids love the tree swings. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone.

We rented a cabin instead of bringing oir camper. The cabin was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed. Bedding, towels, kitchenware, and a coffee pot were all included. Enjoyed sitting on the screened in porch. Also, went on the cavern tour and these are the best caverns I've been in. Would highly recommend a visit!

This was our third time...YES, THIRD TIME...going to the Holly Hill" Guest House! Have gone during the month of July for three years in a row! It's a very relaxing, peaceful, quiet, and enjoyable place to stay! We were in the 20' x 60' Inground Saltwater Pool every day and most nights! Just heavenly! Steve Rula, Jr, the Owner of the Property is very helpful, courteous, and knowledgeable! He told us about the Plantation House "Cary Hill circa 1741" that is also on his Property! It's three stories, full of antiques and Steve rents part of this building and surrounding grounds for special events such as Weddings! So beautiful! We stayed in the two story Guest House "Holly Hill" which is quite spacious! It is surrounded by 5,500 acres of wildlife refuge! On the main floor is the living room, dining area, kitchen (fully equipped), main bedroom with king size bed, and a bathroom with a Jacuzzi Tub and the largest shower we've ever seen! Upstairs are two bedrooms, one has twin beds and the other has a queen size bed. There is a bathroom with tub and shower that is shared by both bedrooms! "Holly Hill" is completely furnished with towels, blankets, sheets, linens, kitchen utensils including pots and pans, dishes, silverware, glassware, stove, refrigerator and dishwasher! You can wash your clothes, if necessary, in the basement which has two washing machines and three dryers! You just need to bring your clothes and food! And don't forget bathing suitss! s located b! l5,500laxing,

This was a great place to stay and enjoy Nelson County! Very clean and well equipped! Only caution is that the stovetop cooks super hot, so keep it much lower than you think you need to. Daniel was very responsive and the rental process smooth!

My wife and our dogs stayed at the Chestnut House for 3 nights and we loved every minute of it. The owners did a phenomenal job making the house comfortable and cozy. The house is pristine, clean and beautifully decorated. It is a gorgeous piece of property with several outside areas to sit and relax. Our dogs enjoyed running around and sniffing every inch of the property. We loved sitting on the deck and listening to the Piney River. The owners had everything we needed- from a coffee maker, washing machine, and even little touches like a first aid kit and toiletries. We loved our stay and are grateful the owners wanted to share their home with us!

The property was gorgeous and very relaxing. The cottage was clean and well kept with a comfy bed and cute coffee bar. The couch is a bit uncomfortable, but we didn’t spend much time lounging anyways. Great location and close to Skyline Drive and Shenandoah National Park for hiking. We had our dog with us, who loves to play frisbee. There was great open space by the pond for him to roam and be happy off leash. Tabatha was so kind and generous, gave some great suggestions and was very communicative and willing to help in any way. The only thing that caught us off guard was the apartment above the cottage that had a tenant. We wished it was a bit more secluded - the cottage is very close to the main house and we could hear the upstairs tenant. But all in all it was a great getaway space to relax and take some time away from busy work life.
