Wooded Wonderland Miniature Golf Hot tub Pool
Me and my family loved our stay. The pool and hot tub was great and lots of fun, we didn’t expect how deep it was. The mini golf course is a good time as well. There was so much to enjoy at the house we barely had time to go to the beach. And the host and owner were extremely friendly, and helpful.

Waterfront Retreat| Kayak+Beaches+Pool | Gameroom
What a find! We were attending a wedding on the Potomac and found this gem of a place basically right next door. A perfectly appointed home in a peaceful, tranquil, beautiful setting. Connie was great! Responsive to our need to find the iron, not exactly an emergency, Connie responded immediately with it's location. Loved it!

York River Vacation Home
We had a wonderful stay here! Everything was exactly as described. Eugene was really responsive when communicating and super friendly! I would highly recommend staying here if you get the chance. Thank you again for such a relaxing place to stay!

The Glebe
We had such a wonderful stay! The house was beautiful, peaceful, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The layout was perfect for spending quality time together while still giving everyone space to unwind. Private beach access made it even more special—we made great memories, met some lovely neighbors, and even had a chance to paddle board and spot a stingray! Huge shout-out to Leigh, our amazing host—so thoughtful, responsive, and kind. We’re so grateful for the experience and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Charming Carrie's Cottage at Fairhill Farm
Thank you so much for the great stay! We enjoyed the area and were able to relax at your place.

The Rosé Retreat: Pool-Screened Porch-RELAX
We had a really nice stay at the Rose Retreat! The home is wonderfully appointed with nice furnishings. We especially appreciated the well stocked kitchen with upscale drink and dinnerware. The hand written welcome note, bottle of wine and snacks were so thoughtful - thank you! A perfect location from which to enjoy Irvington and the surrounding towns. We hope to come back in warmer weather to enjoy the pool!

Beach Please! River cottage w/private beach & dock
My family and I stayed here for a week for our family vacation. We are a group of 8 (6 adults and 2 kids) and there was plenty of room for all of us. We barely left the house because with the beautiful view, dock, beach area, canoe, kayaks, hot tub, game room/ library, corn hole, and fire pit we all had plenty to keep us entertained. Everyone loved Mary & Shelly’s place, and it provided the perfect space for us to enjoy the river and each other’s company!

Hottub Ski In/Ski Out Renovated Chalet Lower Tyro
Joes property was absolutely beautiful! The views are amazing from the cozy hot tub on the back porch. Everything was super clean and the beds were super comfortable! This airbnb would be great for a family stay or a friends getaway. It was everything we needed and more! Joe was quickly responsive when i had questions. This air bnb is stocked with EVERYTHING you may need. Beautiful spot, 10/10!

White Oak Hill - Historic Farmhouse Retreat
We truly enjoyed our stay here for my nieces wedding at Fine Creek. It was so nice being right down the road. We found the house unique and my adult children also loved staying here. They did a wonderful job renovating the house. Thank you so much for sharing your home and we would love to stay here again!

Orso Blu one-of-a-kind VIEWS in Crozet
The house is in a beautiful setting surrounded by mountains with peaceful views from the front porch that include a field of lavender and a stream. A forested trail network can be accessed at the far end of the lavender field--so bring your hiking shoes. The house is stunning with clean lines, "european" design and decor that includes high-end appliances and fixtures. Francesca is the ultimate host-very friendly and helpful. She provided all the information and details on the house that you would need for an easy check-in, stay, and check-out. From my initial conversations with her when I booked the house to helpful messages just before and during our stay, I felt like I was staying at the house of an old friend. We look forward to staying at Orso Blu on a future trip!

The Hide-A-Way
I can’t say enough good things about this place! Clean, quiet, peaceful. Very well stocked and you can tell she adds her personal touch with fresh baked cookies for you. Very beautiful! I’ll be back with a longer stay for sure.

Riverview Cabin on the James
What an absolutely incredible stay. We booked the cabin for a full week with our dogs. Our ideal was to visit a place that was peaceful and surrounded by nature where our dogs could explore without worrying about running into other people or pets. This stay exceeded our expectations. As far as I could tell, the next closest people were over a mile away. The view was spectacular, along with nightly sunsets over the river that can be enjoyed from the hot tub or rocking chairs on the porch. We enjoyed the wildlife, the walkablity of the property, the seclusion, the river access - amazing, peaceful. Inside was also very comfortable. We made use of the kitchen and the grill, the TVs, and the comfortable beds. We cannot wait to visit again!

Mountain View
We had the good fortune of staying at Mary Catherine's place, and even though it was just for one day, I’ve never felt so relaxed. The house is absolutely stunning, offering a variety of thoughtful amenities and clear, easy-to-follow instructions to enjoy them all. The view is truly breathtaking—you can admire the mountains while listening to the peaceful sounds of birds and local wildlife. If I ever find myself in the area again, I would absolutely hope to stay longer. Thank you for the amazing experience!

Lake Haven - Hot Tub! Mountain Views!
This lakefront spot was perfect for a laid-back weekend with my childhood friends. The house was clean, updated, and had plenty of space for all of us to hang out and relax. The private dock was a standout—we spent a ton of time by the water, just catching up and enjoying the quiet. The host made everything easy, from check-in to check-out. Whether we were grilling, enjoying the hot tub, or just kicking back on the deck, it was exactly the kind of getaway we needed. Would definitely come back.

Saddleback Sanctuary: Luxury Estate beside Veritas
Beautiful views and a perfect location. The hosts were prompt to respond and I’d love to come back!

"Glass & Pine" Home close to Bold Rock &Vineyards
Lovely place, very clean, stylishly decorated. It is roomy and has a fantastic view. Nice outdoor sitting areas. It is secluded. The only problem my family and I ran into was knowing what driveway to turn in. We failed to see a sign that displayed a house number at the end of the driveway. Other than that the house and our stay was outstanding.
Private house rentals

Brand new, beautiful home.
Toan was helpful, and very pleasant. The process for check in/check out was easy. The home was very nice, and comfortable. It felt like home away from home. The neighborhood was quiet, and conveniently located close to shopping, and restaurants. Highly recommend, and would love to stay again.

New Listing! - Lakefront Cottage
We had an amazing stay by the lake! The location was absolutely perfect—peaceful, scenic, and relaxing. The house was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Our host was responsive, accommodating, and made check-in seamless. We highly recommend this spot and can't wait to return!

Blue Pearl Cottage
Very cozy, comfortable cottage with charm and modern upgrades. Private and quiet; lovely view of the water. Comfortable beds and sofa. All amenities, just like home. Three TVs, large screens in LR and MSBR. Large screened porch overlooking water. Hosts were responsive and helpful.

Lakefront Lake Anna - Boat Dock, Views, Games
Amazing stay at Coco Cabana over the memorial day weekend! The house is beautiful, very spacious for our large group, right next to lake Anna with a private dock/kayaks/sand pit and fire pit/detached game room. Lots to do for kids and adults alike! We also appreciated the well stocked kitchen. The Wifi had unpredictable connection issues but it was addressed immediately. But all in all an absolute gem of a place - thanks to Daniel and team for everything!

Riverside Retreat
The cabin was clean, river access was great, and it's close to downtown Lynchburg with just a few minutes of driving. Matthew was accomodating with our arrival time due to some last minute changes on our end and we were grateful for that. I'd stay again if visiting the area.

Enjoy the 60 acre retreat and get away from it all
Amy’s place was a true hidden gem, beautiful property, 60 acres of country living and privacy to roam, yet all the comforts of home in the house itself. Kitchen was super clean with modern appliances, with everything you might need to make meals. Bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and exactly what we needed, the kids especially loved having their own rooms, and their own separate section of the house! Our dog enjoyed every minute of off-leash time, exploring the woods, trails, and favorite place by far, the creek! Amy was very responsive and messaged with us back and forth before, during and after our stay. Town is not too far away with restaurants and activities, and Amy was quick to offer suggestions. All in all a great, memory-making trip, and we hope to come back to visit again soon!

Carriage House
The Carriage House is beautiful. From the decor, well-stocked kitchen to luxurious linens, we were very comfortable in this home for a long weekend. Just outside of Farmville in a beautiful rural setting, is a jewel of a home. We were a party of 4, busy with different wedding festivities all weekend. It was lovely to start our days on the porch with coffee and come home to relax on the porch to enjoy the each other. Thanks to our host for a well stocked kitchen, bathrooms and all the goodies for us to enjoy. We appreciated your flexibility when we needed it! I hope to return to enjoy more of the area, shop at Greenfront and stay in this lovely home once again.

The Resort
The Resort was a lovely home on a quiet street. Beautifully furnished and comfortable. Backyard was small but very well done with a pool and lots of seating. Host was friendly and responded quickly. We would definitely recommend staying here!
