Our home is an exclusive (private) 3 bedroom, 2 bath Bed & Breakfast that sits on a quiet and private country road in the heart of Nelson County -- Lovingston, Virginia. The home is perfect for last minute getaways among two small families or larger groups of friends. It's the perfect spot for girls' wine weekends! The home is clean and well-stocked with everything you need to getaway. Two king beds and two sets of bunk beds across the three bedrooms. Seating and dining space to fit all 8 comfortably on the main level.

Our onsite hosts, Wendie and Jay, stay in the basement (with a private entrance) and will provide breakfast each morning along, provide quick advice and ensure a 5-star stay.

Outside you will find the large, heated pool (open March to November) with plenty of places to sit and enjoy three seasons per year. The pool can be heated for an additional fee based on the number of days/time of year (just ask for details!). On the back porch you will find a hot tub (open year round) next to an 8 person outdoor dining table.

If you bring kids, they will enjoy the pool house which is stocked with a mini golf challenge and plenty of other games. Kids and pets can enjoy the large, wide-open, green front and back yards.

Just five minutes north on Route 29 you will find Food Lion, plenty of restaurants, gas, coffee shop, and shopping on Main Street. We recommend Vito's (Italian/Pizza), El Mariachi (Mexican), Mountain Mama's (Southern), and Lovingston Cafe.

Lovingston Winery is a 5 minute drive away and is our absolute favorite winery in the region. It's family-owned, pet friendly, quiet and not overly commercial, with great views and relaxing environment with horses roaming about. There is also Mountain Cove Vineyards, Rebec Vineyards, and Lazy Days Winery within a very short drive. Finally, Virginia Distillery (local spirits) and Outback Brewhouse are also within 10 minutes.

Berry picking is open in the Spring and early Summer just 5 minutes away at Seaman's Orchard.

For hiking in the area we recommend Crabtree Falls (great views and reasonable climb) or Blue Ridge Railway Trail or Blue Ridge Tunnel (family friendly and flat). There are a ton more options and we can send you the list.

Perfect girls weekend!
This place is perfect if you’re looking for a girls weekend! We did a long weekend with 8 girlfriends and couldn’t have picked a better place to stay! The house itself is great, plenty of space for everybody upstairs and the games downstairs outside are great! We used the hot tub and pool each day, the brewery across the street was an easy walk, and it wasn’t too far of a drive to do a river float! I would definitely stay again!

Very clean, super child and pet friendly property
My family and I enjoyed our stay at the property! It was very clean, spacious and bright. There weren’t any pet restrictions and our dog had the time of his life during the stay! The basement had a fun play area and both our kids enjoyed (a 7 year old and an 11 month old). We had great time at the pool and around the fire. Kyle was extremely responsive and flexible and we truly appreciated that! I would highly recommend the property!

Great country getaway
My family and I had a great time at this property with the air hockey, dart board, firepit, & hot tub. The kitchen was well-stocked with non-stick cookware, having everything one might need to cook. We cooked many of our meals, so this was appreciated (there's a limited number of restaurants in the area, but we like to cook). Communication with the owner was very easy and good.

Excellent Adventures in the Mountains with fantastic lodging
An absolutely fantastic place to stay for our mountain adventures...we hit the slopes skiing/snowboarding, did some fantastic hikes, and enjoy some local cuisine at several nearby restaurants. The house was perfect offering tons of amenities. Our kids loved all the games, the adults loved all the space plus the hot tub and it was even pet friendly. Our Host (Kyle & Krystal) was extremely response, friendly, and easy to work with....very simple to check-in/check-out! They even provided an outstanding website/app full of great information on the surrounding area.....the best "VBRO House Brochure" I've seen to date. We certainly look forward to staying here again on our next mountain getaway!

Beautiful location and awesome pool!
Excellent location to get away from the routine and close enough to visit Shenandoah, Monticello, and Richmond. Pool and hot tub are well maintained and the pool is HUGE! The bathrooms are smaller but very clean. Great game room setup downstairs that our teenager loved 😉 Brewery across the street has a great atmosphere! We would definitely recommend. Owners were very helpful and quick to respond.

Lovely escape to the countryside
My family, including an infant and 4 year old, recently spent a lovely week here. The property was impeccably cleaned before our arrival and the beds (mattress and linens) were very comfortable. Everyone enjoyed the game room in the basement. The pool was quite nice as well, with a good locked fence. We would stay here again!

What a great property. We wanted a place that had no interruptions, something where we could unwind from working hard and just visit and this house fit the bill. Great beds, bathrooms, kitchen and beautifully decorated, but we were in the pool or hot tub the entire time. Our host Kyle recommend TJ Rose as a private chef. We worked with him on a menu, we all dressed up, decorated the dining room and TJ did not disappoint and we never left once. It was awesome Kyle thanks for everything.

What a great weekend getaway!
We really enjoyed our stay. We booked the house for a long weekend (Thur-Sun). The owners were very flexible and helpful. Amazing service where for a small fee they picked up my instacart order and it was all put away and organized when we arrived which really helped with packing and removed a lot of the stress which allowed us to really enjoy the weekend. The pool was nice and cool as it was SO hot outside! We really enjoyed the views and the local attractions from the brewery to a great italian rest with great pizza a few miles down the road. The house was full of EVERYTHING we needed and everything we didn't even know we needed haha From cooking spray to dawn dish soap to brand new non stick pans etc. They put a lot of thought into also preparing the house for dogs with a dog bowl near the pool, one in the kitchen and a very nice and clean dog bed in the closet. They really thought of everything and because of that our stay was stress free and our entire family had a nice relaxing weekend where we did a Christmas in July themed bday part for my newphew (10) and my dad (69). The house was great for everyone. Thanks for everything!!

Wonderful Getaway!
We were seeking a quiet, relaxing getaway from the city and this property surpassed our expectations!! The pool was convenient, spacious and well maintained so we had fun hanging out here on hot summer days. Our dogs had the best time running around the property. They were perfectly safe being off-leash, as the property sat a ways back from neighbors and the main road. The house was super clean, cute and very comfortable! We slept so well in the large master bed. While it was just the two of us and the dogs, this property would be perfect for a bit larger group - the other bedrooms also looked nice! It was conveniently close to an awesome Brewery and also to a couple vineyards. We had an amazing time and plan to visit again one day!

We had the best time celebrating the start of summer and our son’s birthday! The property entertained all of our kids (age ranges 7-21), and the adults too! Between the pool, hot tub, air hockey, ms pac man, darts, and the fire pit — no one was bored, ever! The location is great if you want to hit any of the breweries or cideries in the area, too! The beds were seriously comfy and the home had all the necessary amenities for cooking and grilling. So grateful to have found this spot! We would surely return again ☀️

Relaxing mountain getaway
We really enjoyed our stay. The house was easy to find with Google maps, and super close to the Blue Mountain barrel house, where we had an amazing lunch. The mountain view is gorgeous and visible from the pool, front bedroom, and the kitchen sink. House was very clean and stocked with brand new cookware, nice furniture and even pet accessories for our small dog. Wood and lighter fluid were available for the fire pit, and we really enjoyed the hot tub and outdoor dining table for dinners. The only suggestions I would make is to add lighting at the pool so you can continue to swim at night (if there was some we didn’t see it), and blackout curtains in the master (there are blinds but it was still very bright first thing in the morning). Overall we had a great time and I would recommend!
