About this property

Blue Ridge, Tye River, C-Ville, Crabtree, Wintergreen, Sweet Briar, Farm

Experience a warm Blue Ridge Mountain welcome at the Tye River Farmhouse in Arrington, Virginia.

Located in scenic Nelson County, this classic Virginia brick farmhouse sits amid the rolling countryside, surrounded by the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains. Just a short drive away, you’ll find the Brew Ridge Parkway along the Highway 151 Loop, offering easy access to local breweries and attractions.

The farmhouse, set on land with a rich farming history, boasts beautiful pastoral and mountain views. Inside, you’ll find creamy colonial walls accented by vibrant colors in each room, original hardwood floors throughout, and a kitchen with modern appliances and mountain vistas. The master bedroom features large sliding glass doors that frame sweeping mountain views and create an airy, open feel.

Furnished in a comfortable country style, the home is centrally heated and air-conditioned, with Dish TV and high-speed fiber internet (100 Mbps). The property offers five bedrooms and two bathrooms, a hot tub overlooking the mountains, and a fire pit perfect for enjoying stunning sunsets.

Conveniently located just off Highway 29, the farmhouse is halfway between Charlottesville and Lynchburg, and only 30 minutes from Wintergreen Ski Resort and Crabtree Falls. Access to the 10-acre property is an easy one-mile drive from the highway.

Enjoy a variety of local activities: tour central Virginia’s renowned wineries, visit nearby orchards, pick your own berries, ski at Wintergreen, hike Crabtree Falls or the Appalachian Trail, fish the Tye or James River, browse antique shops, take scenic drives, or play a round of golf.

History enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to sites like Monticello, Montpelier, Walton’s Mountain, Jefferson National Forest, Appomattox Court House, Poplar Forest, and Ashlawn—all within an hour’s drive.

Just five miles from the farmhouse is Highway 151, home to the Brew Ridge Trail. Enjoy meals at Devils Backbone Brewing Company, Wild Wolf Brewing Company, or Blue Mountain Brewery, and explore local shops, galleries, cideries, and distilleries. Five minutes away is the Blue Moutain Barrell House with excellent food and drink.

Most guests find themselves relaxing at the cozy farmhouse, which sits in the middle of a 10-acre parcel with elevated mountain views. The Tye River borders the property to the west, and private river access is a short 250-yard walk down the driveway. The river is not visible from the house. Guests can enjoy swimming, canoeing, tubing, and kayaking—just bring your own gear. Please note, four-wheeling is not permitted due to insurance restrictions.

Explore open fields, hiking trails, and, when water levels are right, enjoy kayaking or tubing on the river. The Virginia Blue Ridge Railway Trail is just three miles away, and Crabtree Falls, and the Appalachian Trail are close by.

We are dog-friendly—bring up to three dogs for $25 each.

Golfers will find several courses in the area, including Winton Country Clubs, Popular Grove Golf Course and Stoney Creek Golf Course.

Local wineries, breweries, and distilleries include Devils Backbone, Blue Mountain Brewery, Bold Rock Cider, Lovingston Winery, Wild Wolf Brewing, Virginia Distillery, Rebec Winery, Democracy Winery, and Silverback Distillery.

Wintergreen Resort is just a half-hour away for skiing and year-round activities.

Relax on the back porch, take in the mountain sunsets, and enjoy the natural beauty of Nelson County.

Weekly and monthly discounts are available—enter your dates to see special rates.

We look forward to welcoming you to the Tye River Farmhouse!

We had a great time. The house was perfect for us with the fireplace being the cherry on top. It created a cozy space making it hard to want to go outside and brave the cold. The views on the property were great and worth exploring.

beautiful views

The property was absolutely breathtaking! I would book again based on the views and grounds alone! The main floor of the house only had a bathroom on the other side of the master bedroom, if you are planning a trip with multiple families this can get frustrating. The basement had ping pong, which the kids loved and the hot tub was easy to refill and use! The basement also had the washer and dryer and the host did a nice job of keeping it stocked with detergent and cleaners. The hosts were quick to reply when we ran into any issues (hot tub chemicals and hot water issues) and were quick to make everything right! I think it would be in their favor to have electronic locks added to their doors and update some electricity/ wiring in their basement, but overall beautiful stay that felt like a nice hideaway.

Perfect Quiet Getaway

We loved our stay at this beautiful property. The house and property were extremely well maintained. The online photos don’t do justice to how beautiful and peaceful this home is. There were a lot of thoughtful touches that let us know the owners care about the renters and their feedback. Overall 5/5.

Pretty!!

The house and property were beautiful. My husband got to fish a few times in the river. We walked on the property a lot. Communication was great with Glen. He was very quick to respond to problems. There were some hornets outside the house and coming into the house, but it was taken care of right away. Also, due to the cold They weren't a problem The second and third day while we stayed. The mountains in the background from master bedroom were beautiful. Every morning there were deer in the back yard. We went to safari park and zoo, natural bridge, and Monacan Indian museum while we stayed here. We went to Vito's, Amherst corner restaurant, and the briar patch in Amherst for dinners/lunch.

Beautiful home with amazing views

This was out home base for our daughter’s college graduation and we couldn’t have dreamed of a better location. The house slept our family comfortably and provided beautiful mountain views as far as the eye could see. Just minutes from breweries and wineries but the best experience by far, aside from the graduation, was an early morning cup of coffee on the back porch watching all the birds, rabbits, and deer start their day.

Quaint place, beautiful scenery

Loved that the main bedroom had it's own bathroom but it had poor lighting. Internet service was fair. The additional porches were a plus. The firepit area was nice, the solo stove was a nice touch. Could use a set of steps to get in as it was a bit sketchy walking the whole way around in dim lighting. Overall, I would definitely stay there again!

Awesome Farmhouse

This house and location is everything the owners claim them to be. The location is stellar with beautiful views of rolling farm pastures with mountains in the distance. Plenty of wonderful outdoor seating to take it all in. The serenity and quiet you will experience here will allow you to fully enjoy everything the Virginia countryside has to offer, but it will be hard to leave to do it! From that perspective the location puts you within easy driving distance of Lynchburg to the South, and Charlottesville to the North, but the real pleasure is driving up to the mountains on routes such as 151 that offer wineries and a choice of breweries with excellent dining options. Just perfect sightseeing and dining. On top of all that the owners and their property representative were super nice, and so happy to accommodate our needs. This VRBO is a winner.
