Lovely and peaceful estate

We absolutely enjoyed staying at this gorgeous and peaceful estate! We love the history of the property and the attention to detail that made our stay even more special. I had contacted the hosts a couple of times to clarify some things and they were very quick to respond. It was truly wonderful to feel a part of the country, and yet so close to downtown and fabulous restaurants.

Wonderful stay!

We enjoyed our stay at Cedar Lane. What a wonderful property and beautiful restoration of the home there. We were visiting family in New Kent and they all had memories of the property. I loved getting up to drink my coffee on the front porch and in the evening the kids playing ball on the front lawn. We will definitely stay again!

Lovely house for a Busch Gardens weekend

Had six of us there for a cookie bake, Christmas town weekend! Kitchen is perfectly sized for baking along with 2 ovens. About 40 mins from Busch Gardens. House 1/4 to 1/2 mile from the road so it is nicely secluded!

Wonderful Williamsburg Experience

My wife plus 2 couples stayed at Cedar Lane during our colonial Williamsburg visit. This historical home put us in the mood to enjoy our time in Williamsburg, just 30 minutes away & traffic free. The home is certainly old and historic but very comfortable and modern when it counted. Gas fireplaces (remote control start) in every room was a nice touch. Highly recommended!

Quiet and peaceful

We spent our 20th anniversary with friends and family. We chose the house specifically for the kitchen. It is well appointed and had more than we needed. The rooms were all very beautiful and secluded. We are already thinking about another date in the future. Thank you, Dana & Chloe for all the info and instructions. Sorry about the wine glass.

Amazing stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cedar Lane. The home is absolutely gorgeous. I loved everything about this home. I especially liked that every room had its own personal bathroom. It made it easy for all 7 of us to get ready. We hosted my Mother's celebration of life while visiting family there. It turned out better then I could've expected. The home and grounds were large enough to host everyone. Check in and communication with the host was super easy. We definitely hope to be back again in the future.

Beautiful property

We spent an idyllic holiday weekend at Cedar Lane with three generations, and it will be a trip we remember forever. We spent hours enjoying the expansive views from the porch and watching the kids play on the lawn, and went for daily runs on the paths behind the house. The house itself is beautifully restored and is full of antiques, Persian rugs and oil paintings. We did day trips to Richmond and local wineries. Families should be aware that all the bedrooms are in different parts of the house and the beds are very high, so it’s not great for young children (our 6-year-old twins thought it was fun, but if they were younger it would have been a problem). The kitchen is down a flight of brick stairs, which was tough for my senior parents, who also had problems with some of the bathrooms. And the kitchen is huge but doesn’t have a lot of supplies, so simple meals are best (we couldn’t find a casserole dish, waffle iron, or all the pans that we wanted. ) all minor quibbles. This was a wonderful stay.

Great historical house and yard, dog friendly, not for the mobility challenged

Very interesting old house, but with very modern kitchen. Great yard surrounded by cornfields far off the road, which my dog really liked - he got a lot of leash-free running about in. Only 30-min from Williamsburg, so not a bad trip. The only warning I give is that the house is not friendly for anyone who has trouble negotiating stairs. Even the main bedroom on the first floor has a few to get into the room, and to top it off, it has a crazy 3-foot tall bed with its own set of stairs to get into bed. Also, if TV is an important thing, the living room w TV won't make you happy. The TV isn't all the big and the furniture is colonial, i.e., not lazy-boy-cushy-like. However, if you like to cook, the kitchen is crazy big with really high-end modern appliances, so you can go nuts! All in all, we enjoyed our stay immensely.

Living history!

Our stay at the 1826 plantation house on Cedar Lane was both enjoyable and a learning experience. This National Historic Site is an amazing place to stay. The house is stocked with paintings and books telling the history of the house and the region. Don’t let the age of the house deter you. The kitchen is modern and equipped with top of the line appliances. All of the rooms have either central air conditioning or very effective wall mounted split units. The furniture is as shown on the Vrbo listing. Antique furniture that is comfortable. The beds are elegant and comfortable. Being halfway between Richmond and Williamsburg is a big plus. We took the children to the fantastic science museum in Richmond. Visits to Williamsburg, Yorktown and Jamestown were convenient. A full day trip to the wonderful Virginia Aquarium in Virginia Beach. Worked out too. We highly recommend staying here.

Top notch!

The home and the grounds are beautiful. They have done a great job of restoring it to be comfortable but keeping the great historical feel to it. McKenzie is an excellent host. She helped us find the house in the middle of the night with no complaints and was always very friendly and helpful. By the way, some GPS apps will have trouble finding the house based on street address. Use these coordinates and you shouldn't have any trouble: 37.529989, -77.042089
