Comfortable and convenient, tastefully designed for extra ease of living. Very tastefully chosen furnishings, well arranged. I would give them the award for best lighting in a rental property. Excellent use of space and we enjoyed the special design of the shower. We stayed 7 nights very comfortably, and we are both over 70.

The Pond House fit my needs and location very well for the time I needed to be in Charlottesville. It was very spacious and clean. You need a car as it is north of downtown near the airport. A quiet setting in a quiet neighborhood. It is a basement apartment, so no windows to appreciate the it’s situation, but very comfortable.

Our stay at the Pond House was wonderful! We were in the area for a wedding and the cozy apartment was perfect for our time away from home. The Pond House was equipped with everything we needed and it was sparkling clean. The neighborhood was quiet and five minutes from the airport. We couldn’t have had a better stay.

Just what I needed

John & Maria's "pond house" basement apartment was just what I needed for a couple of days' quiet work, including a one-day conference just down the road at the University. I would definitely stay here again.

This is a sweet little studio style apartment that suited us quite well. It is in the basement. It was very comfortable for my husband and me and the location was perfect for visiting family in the area. Quick drive to Charlottesville and surrounding areas.John was very hospitable and quick to respond to any request requests. We will keep this place in mind for future visits.

The pool house

The pool house was very very clean and neat! The host was very helpful. The only draw back was the lack of a shower curtian and that was a minor inconvenience

Great little spot!

Great accomodations for 2 people with the spacious open concept floor plan. Will definitely book again as the price and location were great for us. As per other reviews, we heard footsteps a couple of times, but nothing that annoyed us. In fact, we let out a cheer watching the hockey game which they definitely heard, and realizing how loud we were, went into quiet mode the rest of the stay. Super friendly hosts.
