VMI Reunion Getaway
Beautiful place and perfect for our VMI reunion with some old friends. We also thoroughly enjoyed the "neighbors"--a mama bear and her 3 cubs. Definitely on our list for a place to return....thank you so much!

Perfect get away
Erin is so hospitable and a great host. The property is gorgeous….we wished it didn’t rain while we were there, so we could have explored the trails. Everything was just perfect.

Best rental ever!
My friends and I were in town for a wedding. The house far exceeded our expectations. The property was BEAUTIFUL and peaceful. There was a lot of privacy in addition to a lot of amenities. The cottage has everything we needed and more. The hosts were wonderful and accommodating. There was soft music and the lights were on when we arrived. They also had farm fresh eggs in the fridge and offered to save us a trip to the store. They let us check out two hours late because there was no one else checking in. The beds were comfortable and the view was gorgeous. They have put so much thought into every aspect of the cottage. The pictures do not do it justice! Will definitely be back if we are in the area again!

Wonderful spot; gracious hosts; a Hit!
We had a too short delightful time in Lexington. The property was on a hill over looking the Shenandoah Valley; every effort was made to welcome us; there’s a small enclave of chickens, turkeys, miniature donkeys, and other creatures the children loved; the surrounding Maurrey River valley was fun to explore and enjoy-we loved it!

Little Details Make A Big Difference
Little details like relaxing music playing when the family arrived and the invitation to take anything from the beautiful garden made all of us feel so welcomed and comfortable. There were fun activities for all ages and gorgeous views. Highly recommend for families looking to get away from the business of life and enjoy spending time relaxing and playing together.

Graduation weekend
Amazing mountain views from a well equipped farmhouse. We were not on-site much but enjoyed the full kitchen and enjoyed the deck overlooking the beautiful property. Beds are only doubles so be prepared if you are used to larger bed sizes. Farm fresh eggs were awesome!

Graduation/Family Weekend
I wanted a place where we could all be together for my daughters college graduation What a wonderful find! This is the best place we have stayed at. The cottage is large and family friendly. The grandkids enjoyed playing outside on the rope swing and seeing the farm animals. We cant wait to come back again!
