Comfortable stay!

This property was perfect for our family. Clean, comfortable bedrooms and nice big space to lounge and watch TV in the morning. The kitchen was clean and well stocked with dishes and cookware for family dinners! Lovely outdoor space with fire pit for S’mores and grill for cookouts. Will definitely stay again. Quiet, safe neighborhood.

About the host

Hosted by Caitlin Hoge

Hi there, we are Cait & Luke Hoge! Parents to 2 awesome little boys & fur parents to a big, doofy, Swiss mountain dog named Chunk! We have been together for 10 years & we are lucky enough to be best friends :) One of our favorite things to do together is travel & that’s taken us to some very beautiful cities & various countries around the world. It also made us fall in love with hospitality & want to be hosts ourselves!

Hosting people at our listings has given us the opportunity to spread love through making our guests feel special & valued. We hope to continue to travel as a family & host even more in the future. We can’t wait to cross paths & connect with you along the way :)

Why they chose this property

This is our home when we aren't traveling the world and staying at other people's rental homes! It is our favorite place to be and we hope you feel the same.

What makes this property unique

A quiet and beautiful, family neighborhood (great for exploring with a stroller or with your pups). We are walking distance to downtown, the river walk & Orchard Creek Golf Course/Restaurant. Within walking distance to multiple parks: Ridgeview, Constitution & Rife (which all have river access for a kayaks/paddle boards as well as fishing). We are a short drive away from Klines Dairy Bar, Shenandoah National Park & Skyline Drive & about 30 minutes from Charlottesville, 20 to Staunton.

Pool and Hotub in fenced in backyard. Great elevated view of the South river. You can access the river from Ridgeview par, Rife park, and multiple places along the greenway.

The property behind the fence is private property so please do no trespass to access the river there.
