The perfect house for gathering our extended family! We loved the open yard, the views, proximity to farm stands and towns and the dog friendly winery just a walk away. With its large sunroom, big kitchen and cozy fireplace the home was a perfect place to enjoy family time.

Property was very clean. Had beautiful views from the back deck. Had lots of space inside. Was more than enough room for 4 ladies on a golfing and wine tasting get-away. The property had more supplies than I've seen in other VRBO properties - enough toilet paper and kleenex for our entire stay (3 nights/4 days), lots of extra blankets for cool nights, coffee, condiments, etc.

Great for large groups

This house was perfect for our get together with friends to enjoy the beautiful wineries in the area! The house is really big and the location had great proximity to wineries, one is literally across the street. We loved the large sunroom that had plenty of seating for all 8 adults. The back deck is fantastic - lots of furniture and gorgeous views. Also loved that we could bring our doggie.

VA …beautiful, relaxing retreat

Our family enjoyed the beautiful house that had all of the amenities and more! The house was spacious and having board games to play was an extra touch that my family enjoyed.

Wonderful home for a family getawayWe had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home for our family get-together of six adults and two small dogs. The house was comfortable, spacious, and filled with natural light, with spectacular views in every direction. The kitchen was well-equipped and perfect for cooking and gathering — we even made an apple pie with apples picked from a nearby orchard!The sunroom was a big hit — we loved watching TV, admiring the woods, and working on a puzzle (which we actually finished!). The location was ideal, with a great vineyard right across the street, nearby trails including the Appalachian Trail, and plenty of scenic roads to explore.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to return!

Very nice and quiet getaway

We had a very nice stay and enjoyed this quiet retreat with a beautiful view, just an hour away from busy and bustling Washington DC. Great hikes around, interesting wineries, and a couple of fine groceries with local organic products. We enjoyed the fire pit outside and listening to the fox yells at night, playing pool and cooking in a well-equipped kitchen. Our dog was also in heaven!
