About the host
Hosted by John
My wife, daughter and I love the outdoors, hiking mountains and exploring new places.
Why they chose this property
Dovecotte Ridge Vacation Cabin is located in the heart of wine, brew and cider Country. The log home is less than 10 minutes to the Brew Ridge trail and less than 20 minutes to Downtown Charlottesville. The cabin is amidst a beautiful surrounding forest, rock walls, open meadows, hiking trails, a kayaking trip on the Rockfish River included in your stay. The river runs right through the land. There is over 3/4 mile of riverfront access on the property. The fishing is tremendous. We think you'll love it!
