Daily walks down to the lake, a hike in the woods with the trailheads right on the property, close to "town" for good local food and cute shops (check out Bluebird & Co for cute clothes, accessories, and books!). I cannot recommend this rental enough. We will be back for sure!

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.

Centrally located 20 miles from University of Virginia (UVA) Charlottesville! The 9:00 AM breakfast -- that allowed us to sleep in -- was amazing, as you can tell from the photos: buffet style, eggs, swine, coffee, tea, juice!! 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!!

We stayed two nights and found it quite relaxing and fun. It's a great jumping off place for exploring wineries, local dining, and historical sites, but equally good as a retreat location. We did a lot of reading on the grounds...hammocks, chairs, and benches abound. Details like coffee and tea anytime, filling and fancy breakfasts with choice ingredients, all homemade, and an abundance of flora and fauna to enjoy made it a bespoke, boutique experience. As we sat listening to the early morning birds from our balcony, identifying all the trees we could spot, my husband said, "Worth every penny!" Agreed.

We had a wonderful relaxing stay, the views of the mountains were gorgeous! We like to get out in nature and the hiking trails nearby were awesome, White Oak Falls probably being my favorite. There were quite a few local wineries that were also a treat. The House was very comfortable, it rents by whole house or by room, and although we only rented a room, we got lucky and had the whole house to ourselves that weekend! The kitchen was nicer then my kitchen and such a pleasure to cook in. :) It was tastefully decorated, our bed super comfortable, we felt right at home. Grilled on the patio one night and enjoyed the sunset. It's nice to have a change of scenery! I plan of staying at the Hood House again, and would happily recommend it to others!

The Hood House is special. We have a home nearby, and recently rented the entire place for…read morevisiting family to stay for a Thanksgiving reunion. The House is situated at the foot of beautiful mountains, with spectacular views. There is a lovely en suite bedroom on the first floor, and 4 bedrooms and two bathrooms on the second floor. Each large room is beautifully decorated with vintage furniture. The living room and dining room are big enough to host a party, and the kitchen is ready for a chef. If you're attending a wedding at the nearby Early Mountain Vineyard, this is the perfect place to stay; roomy enough to accommodate an entire wedding party. Our guests loved the Hood House, and so will you. It is a real 'winner'.....

My mom and I spent four nights at Glass House Winery & Brewery for a mother-daughter trip around…read moreCharlottesville, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our entire trip. Glass House is in Free Union, about 20 minutes outside downtown Charlottesville. The location was perfect because it felt peaceful and tucked away in the country, while still being close enough to explore Charlottesville, Crozet, wineries, orchards and hiking. The hospitality was what really made the stay special. Kristin, the chef at the B&B, is incredibly warm and welcoming, and breakfast at 9 AM each morning was something we genuinely looked forward to. She personalized meals around our likes and dislikes and used fresh, local ingredients. During our stay we had blueberry ricotta pancakes, peach and Brie cinnamon bread pudding, latkes with breakfast meats, and an egg quiche with sausage and vegetables. There was also yogurt, fresh fruit, smoothies and coffee available throughout the day. The B&B has a very personal feel, with cookbooks throughout the house, unique Nicaraguan tropical decor and themed rooms such as the Chocolate Room, Wine Room and Under the Stars Suite. The bedding was comfortable, with both communal spaces and areas where you could have some privacy. The attention to detail was wonderful. We had a chocolate surprise, and a complimentary glass at the winery for being guests. I'm not much of a sweets person, but the chocolates were somehow exactly what I wanted all weekend, especially with a glass of wine. You can also purchase bottles and chocolates after hours, and they recently launched a wine club. I also really liked that the owner is actually around the property and winery. He was happy to answer questions, talk about the area and share the history of the vineyard, which made the experience feel much more personal. The winery is about a five-minute walk from the B&B and is open Wednesday through Sunday. The glass house itself is beautiful, almost like a greenhouse, with water elements, accent lighting through the greenhouse plants and vineyards located directly behind it. There are places to sit and watch the sunset with a glass of wine or enjoy coffee in the morning. The sunsets were incredible. On a clear night, the colors over the vineyards seemed to change every few minutes, and it was incredibly peaceful. We also saw wildlife around the property. The winery offers chocolate and wine pairings, reasonably priced wine, live music and food trucks. The live music was especially good and covered different genres throughout the weekend. We even had a seafood boil from one of the food trucks. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The brewery is another three-minute walk from the B&B and is currently open Saturdays. Having both a winery and brewery on the same property is something I didn't see anywhere else during our trip. We tried the pineapple sour and coconut stout, and they have a light beer coming soon. The brewery itself is also really unique because it was made using leftover wine bottles. There is plenty to do without leaving the property, including a saltwater pool, jacuzzi, live music, food trucks and plenty of places to relax. We also used Glass House as our home base for exploring the area. Carter Mountain Orchard was fun for apple cider donuts, cider and other treats. We visited Pippin Hill, Hark Vineyards, Eastwood Estate and Knights Gambit, each with a completely different atmosphere. We also hiked Humpback Rocks and Crabtree Falls. Humpback is definitely strenuous, while Crabtree was more manageable and had beautiful views. We spent some time in Crozet and downtown Charlottesville as well. We had a delicious meal at Smokehouse BBQ at Piedmont, and downtown Charlottesville's Downtown Mall was fun to explore. Vita Pizza was delicious and very accommodating with our food variations. One thing future guests should know is that most restaurants outside of Glass House are about 20-30 minutes away, so keep some snacks on hand and make dinner plans earlier. Most wineries also close around 5-6 PM, which actually worked well for us because we could enjoy the wineries during the day and get back to Glass House in time for the sunset. Our four-night mother-daughter trip was exactly what we wanted, and Glass House was the perfect home base. What made it even more memorable was the people we met and how genuinely welcomed we felt. There are plenty of beautiful wineries in the Charlottesville area, but Glass House felt different. You get wine, beer, live music, food, hiking, a pool, a jacuzzi, beautiful sunsets and a truly personal B&B experience all in one place. I genuinely think it would be a missed opportunity to visit the Charlottesville area and not experience Glass House. We will absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting. You get the peaceful small-town feel along with beautiful, friendly amenities, and we truly can't say enough good things about our experience.

We've visited Chesley Creek Farm twice and will continue to return year after year…read more If you are looking for seclusion, nature, and a personal touch without sleeping in a tent this is the place for you. The cottages (there are 4 to choose from) are well appointed with everything you need and lack exactly what you don't need in a place like this (phone, tv, or internet). The cottages are in Dyke, VA about 20 minutes from Skyline Drive so it's very easy access for hiking. It's about 45 minutes to Charlottesville where you can shop for groceries, go to dinner, or just hang out if you need to reconnect with the city. The cabins have jacuzzi's, full kitchens, grills, backyards with fire pits, indoor fireplaces and board games. They also have a salt water pool in the main house that you can use (and I recommend after a hike!). Personal touches make this place what it is: they've thought of everything. We also loved the fresh cookies that were dropped off at our house and Chuck and Stew always write us personal notes to welcome us to the house. Looking for privacy? The cabins are secluded and you enter them via a keypad on the door so you don't have to check in or out...just come and go as you wish. I highly recommend this place! And will be back in the fall.
