When we got married, we stayed in the Barn Apartment which was a cute 1 bedroom apartment. My husband and I have come back to stay in the Pond House several times now and have loved it every time. Spring Break 2021 - My first time staying in the Milker's cottage with my girl friends so that we could do some winery hopping and they all absolutely loved their time here. We also rented out the party deck area and there were several games, a fire pit, and small table but we couldn't stay out of the hot tub. I am always so excited to introduce people to this farm and look forward to coming back again soon!

Once arriving I don't understand why this place has such negative reviews unless these individual's who left these crazy reviews are just "entitled" people who cannot enjoy the beauty around them ~ in that case find a HOTEL for your pampered butt. This place was absolutely amazing. Very quiet, too quiet that our ears were ringing LOL. Tina was very nice and helpful ~ answering all questions and helping us as much as possible. Yes, even Keith was pleasant to speak to the couple of times I needed to do it. We stayed in the Manor House, Servant House and also the Pond House ~ all WERE great and served its purpose. There was plenty of running areas outside for the young kids that travelled with us ~ and they enjoyed looking at the horses. I highly recommend this place for a nice romantic, simple, outdoorsy wedding. The views of the mountains were spectacular. I would take any negative reviews with a grain of salt.

A few days ago we stayed overnight on the grounds of the Barboursville Vineyards. We stayed in the…read moreSangiovese Cottage. An absolutely beautifully renovated historic structure was constructed into a well appointed accommodation. This is a one bedroom standalone cottage with a sizable wood deck off the bedroom. It has a full kitchen, perfect for extended stays. Our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer. Ginger, our point of contact with 1804 Cottages, set us up with a well stocked refrigerator and a precooked omelette and bacon breakfast for the following morning including croissants, yogurt, juices, milk etc. She literally thought of everything. After a long day of travel, this was a huge benefit. The 1804 inn and cottages is a 'must do' for couples, families or a group of friends that appreciate wine and beautiful settings to share together. My wife and I agreed...this is a magical place. So much so, we would travel again across the country to stay here. See you in 2023 Barboursville and 1804 Inn and Cottages!

My new husband and I rented out all the cottages for our wedding this past weekend. The cottages…read morethemselves were absolutely beautiful. With that being said, the Inn Keeper, Jo, left a lot to be desired. She was very difficult to work with and added a lot of unnecessary stress to our wedding. For example, we were never told (looked back through every email) that the Pinot Grigio cottage (which is the only two bedroom cottage) had a different price if you planned to use both bedrooms. So on the day of our wedding, the second bedroom was dead bolted and was not accessible. I called the lady at the 1804 Inn who kindly told me she would come unlock it. Then another woman immediately called back and rudely told me we hadn't paid for the second bedroom. I told her that was never told to us by Jo. And her response was that she didn't know what Jo had told us, but if we paid another $100 she could unlock it. I obviously had bigger things going on that day, so we said fine. And they unlocked the bedroom but did not put out a second bottle of wine (a bottle of wine and breakfast is included with each cottage set for 2). She also charged our credit card for twice the amount her email (sent a few days before the wedding) had stated it would be charged. There was no invoice sent when we were charged. No breakdown in the charges. I had to email her myself for further information. And 3 days later (very typical of communication with Jo... usually took longer) she finally responded with pictures of the blurry screen of an iPhone showing us various things (like a fire extinguisher used, which she states was our cottage but looking at the virtual tour it is not, but she said "I'm not going to argue, it was your cottage"). Out of all the stress wedding planning brings, Jo was at the top of our list. I'm very glad I never have to communicate with her further. When I told Jo she caused the most unnecessary stress for me while planning my wedding, she told me that our group of friends were the worst guests. When I inquired as to why? She said because the furniture was slightly moved around in one of the rooms. And there were cigarette butts on the ground of one porch. For being an older woman, her maturity has not come with her age. I loved barboursville as a venue and do not regret getting married there. And the cottages were beautiful. It just seems like Jo is very separate from the actual venue and is less than accommodating. If they change Inn Keepers I would absolutely recommend staying in the cottages. But for now, we won't return until that changes. For reference I'm adding the blurry picture she sent us of the fireplace. And then the picture of the actual fireplace where we stayed. But again, she said she wouldn't argue with me (she clearly does not know her own cottages very well)

We wanted a venue that offered great food and an intimate, cozy space, and this was exactly that and more. From the very beginning, Jennifer was absolutely fabulous -- professional, kind, and incredibly organized. When rain threatened to derail our outdoor ceremony plans, she met us the morning before to help us work out a seamless Plan B. Thanks to her calm guidance, we never felt stressed for a moment. The menu created by the chef was outstanding. We chose to do heavy hors d'oeuvres instead of a formal sit-down dinner, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions we made. The food was plentiful, creative, and absolutely delicious -- our guests are still talking about it! Stevenson Ridge truly delivered everything we hoped for: wonderful food, a beautiful and intimate setting, and a team that went above and beyond to make the day special. We can't recommend it highly enough.

Unfortunately, because of our choice of year, we ran into a few problems, all of which were addressed promptly and satisfactorily by the owners of Brookside. And, because of that, we are in position to review several of the cabins! We booked Cabin 9 and battled through crazy DC drivers who freak out over a literal two inches of snow (aside: seriously DC-area, get it together!) Diane in the gift stop called us that morning to warn us of the impending snow and to let us know that if we ended up arriving late, they would leave the key for us under the doormat. Amazing foresight and we really appreciated her call. When we walked into our cabin, the bathroom sink was overflowing and not draining. Turns out the cold winds had frozen the drainage pipes and Cabin 9, being at the end, got the brunt of it. Cece and Bob, the owners, came down immediately and gave us our choice of cabins. We chose number 2, which is a cozy space with a hot tub, angled bed and intimate fireplace area. The second morning, when we were moved back into 9, the water went out over the entire resort just after our morning shower, but by the time we returned to the cabin in the evening, it was fixed. Overall, I liked Cabin 9 best, with its open layout, its great view from the Jacuzzi tub and its numerous skylights. Cabin 2 was cozy and romantic and I liked the layout of the sofa area around the fireplace and the hot tub was pleasant. Both are ideal for a couple, though Cabin 9 has a pull-out sofa and is large enough to not feel too crowded with kids. We also had a peek into Cabins 7 & 8. Number 8 has a full kitchen and two bedrooms and would be great for a family or even the main house for a family reunion. Cece said it is popular for Thanksgiving gatherings. Cabin 7 is a jacuzzi cabin that was intended to be a two-bedroom but instead has a "tub room." If you like privacy for your Jacuzzi it makes sense, however we did not like that each room was separate. The greatest part about the winter? Beautiful snow-covered trees and a partially frozen brook that still babbles underneath it AND the amazing Christmas decorations in each cabin. The usual decor is a bit old-fashioned and flowery, but the Christmas decorations are really fabulous and fun. The restaurant was closed from Thanksgiving until the second week of January. Also, the cabins are really close to 211, which could get noisy in the summer, maybe? But we did not hear much traffic from our cabin, which was next to the roadway. Plus, you can't get any closer to the Thornton Gap entrance to Shenandoah National Park. We hope to return this spring!

My friend and I had a wonderful time this weekend…read more Alan, the owner, greeted us upon arrival. He was friendly but gave us our space too. Alan also has a bird named Sweetie. When we arrived, the sheets still needed to be changed in the room, so we sat in one of the many outdoor spaces. Outdoor furniture could use some updating. I did not like the beverages and snacks available throughout the property. The beds in the Burke Room were a little too soft. I didn't mind so much but my friend with a bad back had some trouble sleeping. I could tell pets are welcome because there was a bit of dog hair on the comforter. The sheets were clean though. The highlight of the trip is the breakfast. Alan is the host with the most! The french toast casserole, bacon, scrambled eggs, toast and jam, homemade granola, and yogurt were delicious. The best part was getting to know the other couple staying at the bed and breakfast. You will love the knick knacks throughout the property and there are games to help you relax. We were only about 30 minutes away from Charlottesville.

The daily homemade granola was a winner (yogurt, locally produced honey)!! This is the best bed and breakfast, by far! You'll be stuffed!! Our two night stay was spectacular. We will return again and highly recommend it. As a bonus, you're greeted by Sweetie (the adorable cockatoo)!! Alan provided wonderful hospitality and conversation. The room had everything and more. Pro tip -- as we did -- visit UVA (rotunda), wineries, cider tasting (Bold Rock Nellysford), Carter Mountain Orchard (more Bold Rock, apple cider donuts, cookies, apple pie, hayride, pick your own apples, wine tasting), breweries (Devils Backbone), movies (Alamo Drafthouse), Wegmans (grocery), restaurants (Rhett's River Grill & Raw Bar, Burtons Grill, Sedona Taphouse). Spring and summer guests can lounge outside on the deck, plenty of seats. Next stay, we want to try some German fare at Bavarian Chef (closest restaurant), visit James Madison Montpelier plantation, and catch UVA hoops, football! See y'all soon Alan and Sweetie!! Again, bring your appetite!!
