5-Acre Getaway close to Historic Triangle
This place was great for our golf trip to Williamsburg! This was our second time renting it.

Waterfront with Waterside, Diving Board & Arcade
Surprisingly spacious and right on the lake. The cove is nice and quiet but also allows for beautiful views. Loved the slide and diving board!

Stepping Stone Cove | Lakefront 4 br, 2.5 ba
We loved it! It’s a very nice and quiet area for a perfect weekend getaway at the lake. Of course, we were sold on the idea of having a private dock to use as well. House has plenty of space and we had a lot of fun with their different puzzles and board games available. Zack and Kate are very responsive and friendly hosts.

Light & airy home w/private hot tub on golf course
Great stay. Place was as described. Responsive host

Living Water Farm, Blue Ridge
This home and hosts are both rare gems, from the ease of checking in to the homes beautiful ambiance, its makes a great place to get away and enjoy nature. We would love to come back and explore more of the trails and wineries.

TDF Retreat on Kerr Lake
My boyfriend, dog, and I were here for 2 nights but I wish we could have stayed longer! The kitchen is fully equipped. The fridge is spacious. Plenty of towels provided. The backyard is pretty private. The neighbors are distant and there are enough tall trees dividing the properties that you can’t see their homes depending on where you are in the backyard. You also can’t see them from inside the house. Well worth the price and 3.5 hour drive from DC. 10/10 would book again. Thank you for having us :)

Lakehouse on Leesville Lake in Bedford County VA
We came to the lake house for a reset. It absolutely did not disappoint! Some of the views felt right out of a movie scene. The hosts were also super responsive, added personable touches to my visit, and had everything I could possible need for a fun & relaxing lake weekend. I especially loved the wrap around porch, the view of the sunrise over the lake, & hummingbirds all around!

Sportsman's Paradise ( Hunting & Fishing )
This was our third or forth stay during the last few years. We sometimes bring our family- it’s perfect for us. Rhonda is amazing, she is so responsive and the house is spotless. We loved every minute of hanging out on the deck and the fishing was awesome this time. We plan to return over and over. We love this place- it’s magical.

Stonewall Manor at Keystone
We stayed 3 nights at Stonewall Manor and it was perfect while we were visiting family in the area. We loved the serenity and openness of the property and enjoyed the horses as well. Our dog Alfred loved being able to run in the large front yard. Our host Tina was friendly and quick to respond from the booking process to checking out. We would definitely stay here again.

Cardinal Cove: Waterfront Kayaks Firepit Boatslip
Such a great space with everything you need. You’ll enjoy your view in the comfort of the space. The view and the environment were great but having a place to be comfortable in was even better.

Cozy Getaway Efficiency on Buggs Island/Kerr Lake
very cozy place nice people that go out of there way to makesure everything is perfect

Rest for the Weary 2
Pam has provided numerous students with safe and secure housing over the past couple of years, and for that we are most grateful!

Angler's Den ~ Kerr Lake Life!
This place was wonderful for us. Lots of room and decorated really nice. It was quiet and easy access. Scott couldn't have been more accomodating. Instructions were clear. Things labeled so you were not confused. Guide book of area if needed. Even left a treat for our dog! If, we are in area in future, would stay again. Our stay was awesome. Linda & David Gober

Beautiful Waterfront Downtown Apartment Unit 2
My wife and I stayed in this waterfront property for a Memorial Weekend getaway and it was everything we hoped for. The house was clean and Alice was a wonderful host, giving insight about local restaurants and answering any questions we had.

Large apartment w private pool / availability.
Staying with Mr Jane was a pleasure. The location was perfect, the apartment was cozy and spotless. The place was well-equipped and the beds were surprisingly comfortable. This is a peaceful downstairs apartment with private entry and beautiful backyard with swimming pool. Mrs Jane was always available to answer our questions. unforgettable experience! Highly recommended!"

basement 1 bedroom apartment with priv entrance
We will definitely be back is the best endorsement. Quiet basement space that is in a safe and accessible neighborhood- one bed, living room, kitchen with induction stove, bathroom and cute dining area. Private entrance through the side gate with flood lights making late check in safe and easy. The owner is extremely responsive and lives upstairs but you barely hear anything. It had everything we needed and more. Internet connection was not lightening fast but you can still get online.

Peaceful beach @Courtyard Cottage+No Cleaning Fee!
Our family of 7 had a wonderful stay. Everything was clean and tidy when we arrived and we felt at home right away. The location was fantastic- private and peaceful but also very convenient to walk out the door and be on the beach in a couple of minutes. My favorite feature was all the amenities provided by the hosts- beach towels, laundry detergent, games and books for the kids, etc. Even just having access to a broom and dustpan to sweep up the sand we tracked in was very helpful (and something we have missed in past Airbnb experiences). We would definitely recommend Richard’s place and would love to stay here again in the future.

Easy Breezy beach house on secluded waterfront
Our family had the best time at Easy Breezy. Alex had thought of everything when it comes to a vacation home and I can't even put into words how peaceful it was. We kayaked, paddle boarded, fished , napped, sun bathed on the dock and enjoyed the hot tub which was an amazing perk. We caught 6 crabs and some ocean perch. This place had everything you could want and we didn't want to leave. It was by far the best rental we have ever stayed at. Our dogs even had a blast!

Amazing coffee bar, lake, fish, swim, relax!
Beautiful property, beautiful views, and an unbelievable night sky. It's definitely a place you want to try.

Levering Creek Cottage with Private Dock
The house was wonderful -- clean, simply furnished, a more-than-adequate kitchen and bathroom. Beds extremely comfortable. The pictures suggest the back yard is on the water....there is actually a house behind Janet's house. BUT, there is an easy-to-access dock that was just wonderful. The single negative? The bugs!! Not anything controllable by others, of course, but did discourage us from the walking of the island we hoped to do. The end of the dock was our refuge -- and the view was just wonderful. Birds plentiful. The people of Smith Island were welcoming, gracious, patient. No exceptions. I am grateful they offer such hospitality.

Lake Gaston cozy water front cottage, boat slip
It was a fantastic stay for a weekend. Very nicely located in a private community with a boat ramp and a lovely little beach. My daughter did efoil lessons at afwake, and we spent a very nice couple of days on the lake. We had everything we needed and the response time from the host was almost instant. Looking forward to repeating next summer.

Hertford Hideaway
Linda was a 10/10 host! She communicated so quickly, was so very accommodating, and gave us a wonderful stay. It felt warm- like we were staying at a family home. We will definitely be back!

Old World Cottage/Fabulous Sunsets/Polite Pets OK
Our stay in Tall Timbers was fabulous, much of it thanks to the care, detailed information, and lovely accommodations provided by our host, Robert. He communicated extremely well through the whole process from booking to check out. Nothing was a mystery and everything was as described or better. The house is charming and in a lovely wooded location. it's isolated but close to many amenities and short drive to historical attractions, local businesses, and the beautiful Maryland coast. We had a particularly wonderful visit to the Tall Timbers Oyster Ranch which is walking distance from the house. We highly recommend this location and send our thanks once again to Robert for his outstanding hospitality!

Historic Ware River Cottage at Glebefield
Incredible stay on a beautiful property. It’s quiet, private, VERY well maintained and just awesome. I truly hope to stay at this location again in the future because it was that great! You can tell the history in the cottage yet it’s updated and cozy. Also I’ve NEVER stayed at a location so clean!!!! From the cottage itself to the grounds, everything was very well taken care of.
