Great fall weekend
Our visit was fantastic. The location is ideal for casual winery exploration and has a great view of the James river. The owners were very friendly. One note of caution: the address provided by Vrbo will not send you to the correct location if you put it into your GPS. Be sure to do your homework before you head out (I had to talk to the owners) because otherwise you'll show up in some other person's driveway. Definitely would recommend this property!

My husband and I loved how peaceful our stay was!
The property was so beautiful. We loved that we could see the river and engoy a nice cup of coffee on the deck in the morning. The space had everything we needed for our stay. It was close to places if we did need anything. Teresa was available also if we needed anything. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a relaxing getaway!

Terrific! Exactly as advertised and just what we needed. We’ll be back!
Beautiful property, beautiful location, and nice little town nearby. Less than three hours from DC, but totally isolated. Right between Charlottesville and the mountains, and surrounded by wine, beer, cider, and history. Cottage felt like a home and our hosts were very responsive yet completely invisible. Perfect getaway for us and we will be back.

Location! Location! Location!
Absolutely loved staying at this cottage. The location is convenient to Scottsville with it's brew pub and many of Virginia's historic sites, including it's own. The cottage location on a bluff overlooking the James River and with only one neighbor made it quiet and exclusive. The only thing it doesn't overlook are all the details which the owners have given attention to so that our stay only required us to bring groceries. We hope to return to enjoy many of the things we could not take advantage of on this our first time. Thank you for a great stay.

Fantastic Place to Spend our Anniversary
My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights to celebrate our 5-year wedding anniversary. Everything was wonderful. The views and setting are beautiful and the cottage is the perfect size for a couple. Scottsville is a quick drive from the house and we really enjoyed the town.

WONDERFUL, RELAXING, NICELY OUTFITTED
Convenient to Charlottesville, Shenandoah Valley, Blue Ridge Parkway. Accomodations were wonderful and clean, beautifully decorated, everything you may need is included. Kitchen is completely outfitted for cooking/dining in if you wish. Master bed is comfy, even pull-out sofa bed in living room was comfy once memory foam mattress topper (provided) was added. This is the best vacation home I have ever rented by far (and I have rented a lot!). Quiet, secluded area with lovely natural surroundings and beautiful views of the James River. HIGHLY RECOMMEND, hope to get back to this gem one day! PS-The visits by "Miss Kitty" were among the highlights of our trip :)

Incredible place to stay
We arrived fairly early before check in and called the owner and was encouraged to go ahead and check in early. The place was clean and well stocked with anything you may need. We always bring extra towels, wash cloth, hand towels dishwashing detergent, clothes detergent, and hand soap and we never had to unpack those items. It was clean and comfortable. The bed was great in so that we have decided to buy a new bed when we got home. It was super convenient to everything, Monticello's , Charlottesville, Shenandoah and blue ridge parkway. 20 minute ride and you are on a major highway to go in either direction. We always cook when we stay at a Homeaway so restaurants are not a big deal. Although we decided to get carry out at Amacis Italian restaurant 5 mins away, and it was so delicious. If you needed any groceries Foodlion was a few mins away!! All in all it was a great vacation with all the hiking it was wonderful to come back to the house with all the great views. Thank you Teresa for allowing us to stay at you place!! Oh yes and the bedside candy was a real treat for my husband!!😘

Serene, quiet, lovely
This property is incredibly clean and the kitchen well stocked...no locked closets forcing you to buy a box of trash can liners, everything you need is there for use during your stay. Unfortunately for 2 old timers (51 & 54) who are used to a heavenly king sized bed at home, we found sleeping very problematic on the queen sized bed. The mattress is very firm (something neither of us found comfortable) but we were able to supplement the mattress with a memory foam mattress cover found in the closet that helped enormously. The only thing we couldn't remedy was that the sofa was not a "curl-up-on-a-rainy-day-and-read" comfy sofa although it served it's purpose. In the morning we would take our coffee on the covered deck, listening to the wild turkey, owls and the birds calling to one another. Also, when we first arrived I found that there was not pitcher for sweet tea and within minutes the owners delivered one! :) All in all, we enjoyed the property immensely but we have both decided that in the future, if we cannot find a king sized bed then back to the hotels we will go. I would have given this property 5 stars if not for the bed.

Quiet & Peaceful
Beautifully decorated. Quiet & remote. Beautiful views of the St. James river. Not much happening in Scottsville, VA, but if that's what you're looking for, this place has it. About an easy 30 minute ride in to Charlottesville for more dining options. We absolutely recommend this home.

We had a great time here! The kitchen had everything we needed and the beds were comfortable. Even the sofa bed was comfortable with the mattress topper the hosts provided. The location is secluded (only one other house on the property) and the views were wonderful. We enjoyed the deck! Thank you!

Very relaxing!
We recently stayed at this home for 5 days. It was the most relaxing part of our trip. The view of the James River and the hillside from the deck was wonderful. The house is very open, clean and the kitchen is stocked with every utensil and pan you would ever need. The house is set back from the road so it is very quiet at night. We even saw fireflies! The small town of Scottsville is less than 2 miles away. It has a great coffee shop and a couple of good restaurants. We did not spend time in Charlottesville because we had everything we needed in Scottsville. It is a good location for visiting Montpelier, Monticello and the nearby wineries. We would recommend this place for someone who wants to relax in the country!

Very nice, secluded cottage.
Comfortable, convenient, and secluded; nice view of the James River and an easy drive to Scottsville. A scenic 19 mile ride north into Charlottesville on a good highway, the cottage is close to many area attactions (Blue Ridge Parkway, Montecello, Mitchie Tavern, etc. Owner was nearby if needed but never a bother. The bed was comfortable, the bedding was clean, sitting room furniture was fresh and comfortable as well. There are several good restaurants in Scottsville to pick from (The Smokehouse Grille and the Tavern on the James both had great food and atmosphere).
