Great house!

Wonderful house. It felt very spacious — plenty of space for our group to spread out. Big windows with beautiful views, well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds. A 5 minute drive to the skiing at Wintergreen. The owner sent us an extremely helpful pdf brochure ahead of time with very detailed information about the house. Our only challenge was with climate control — in winter, with the heat running, the living areas and master bedroom felt cool while the other bedrooms felt warm. Just keep that in mind when allocating bedrooms to the people in your party. :)

Beautiful, large, comfortable, and convenient location

We loved our stay at this beautiful home. Everything was extremely clean, and the bathrooms and kitchen looked new. The family room furniture is so comfortable for a large group to recline and relax after a day of skiing. The kitchen was stocked with coffee k-cups, a nice double griddle pan, toaster, and Belgian waffle maker, which made family breakfast so nice and easy. We loved our stay here and had no complaints. We hope to return to the same property again—no need to look anywhere else in Wintergreen. This home had everything we wanted.

About the host

Hosted by Brett Sullivan

Hi my name is Brett. My family and I enjoyed visiting Wintergreen and the Blue Ridge Mountains so much we decided to make it permanent with a second home. We love exploring all of the different outdoor activities and supporting the local business along the 151 corridor. I look forward to working with you to ensure you enjoy it just as much as us.

Why they chose this property

This property is where memories are made! There is space dedicated for large groups but also when the kids want to watch a movie they can scamper downstairs to have their own time and space. Additionally, this house is located in a secluded area near the Devil's Knob Overlook at Wintergreen, which allows you to hear nothing but birds chirping and the wind blowing through the leaves. This house has also been lovingly maintained and you can see that in the craftmanship and cleanliness throughout the property.
