Best kept secret in Nelson County. Exceptional, comfortable,peaceful and secure. Host was available if needed. All basic supplies are there. Very quiet heating and cooling system kept cottage warm and cozy. View from deck with river burbuling below provided the quintessential tranquil setting for relaxation. Don't miss this one.

The house and property are stunning. Was a perfect long weekend getaway with our besties. Only wish there was water access in front of house, but was only a short walk up the river. Highly recommend this river front property!

Everything about this cabin in the woods is spectacular! The cabin is spotless, has everything you need in the kitchen, and is right on the river! The view is amazing and the kayaks are a great way to spend the afternoon! Communication with John was the icing on the cake. He is very responsive and helpful! Would love to stay again!

This is one of the best VRBO rentals we’ve ever had. It’s gorgeous! The cabin is clean, comfortable, and spacious. The huge deck overlooking the river is so peaceful and beautiful. It was so relaxing to sit out there and listen to the sounds of the river. It was the perfect place to stay. We want to come back when it’s cooler to fly fish. John is a great host and communicates well. The surrounding ding area is full of wineries and hiking trails and gorgeous scenery. Only 30 minutes from Charlottesville. We absolutely will be back.

Perfection for a relaxing getaway!

We chose this property for a girls getaway, and it was exactly what we were looking for. The views were gorgeous even in January! It was easy to see the river from all bedrooms and the living and kitchen areas through big floor to ceiling windows.

Well designed modern cabin on the Rockfish River south of CVille. Plenty of space to amble around with a small beach where you could launch kayaks (provided) or do some fishing.Had great time even though it was a little rainy.
