The house is a Virginia brick farmhouse on land farmed for centuries with wonderful pastoral and mountain views. The farmhouse has creamy colonial colored walls with a bright colonial color for each room. The Kitchen is adequate in size for this 80 year old totally remolded farm house.

There are original Hardwood floors throughout.

We are just one-mile off Highway 29 about halfway between Charlottesville and Lynchburg and only thirty minutes from Wintergreen Ski Resort and Crabtree Falls. Access to our 10 acre property is a convenient one mile drive off Highway 29.

Enjoy wine tasting and tour the many wineries of central Virginia. Visit the nearby orchards, pick your own Strawberries and Blueberries, ski Wintergreen Resort, hike at Crabtree Falls or the Appalachian Trail, fish on the Tye or James River, go antiquing, take beautiful country drives, or enjoy the golfing.

Are you a history buff? We have the following within an hour's drive: Monticello, Montpelier, Walton's Mountain, Jefferson National Forest, Appomattox Court House, Poplar Forest, and Ashlawn.

Just 2 miles from our home is Highway 151 - The Brew Ridge Parkway. Enjoy lunch and dinner at Devils Backbone Brewing Company, Wild Wolf Brewing Company or Blue Mountain Brewery. Shopping and other attractions include: Rockfish Valley Nature Trail, Tuckahoe Antiques, Valley Green Gallery, the seven wineries along Route 151, the Bold Rock Cider Company, or Silverback Distillery.

As you can see, there is plenty to do. Most of our guests spend their time just enjoying our cozy Farm House situated on what is considered one of the most beautiful landholdings in the area. The Tye River borders the West property line of our 10 acres. Guests have private access to swimming, canoeing, tubing and kayaking. Bring your own gear as we can not provide equipment because of liability and insurance reasons. We also can not allow four wheeling on the property for liability reasons.

Bring your campers. $35 per night for each camper. No hookups for sewage and you'll have to bring an extension cord to run from the house to your camper.

There are wide open fields and lots of places to hike and investigate on the property. We have private access to the beautiful Tye River. The house sits in the middle of 10 acres so the Tye River is not right behind the home. The River borders the West property line. Access is about a 250 yard walk down the entrance road. When the water is up it is a nice place to kayak or float on a tub. Do a Web Search for Tye River Kayaking.

You will love nearby Crab Tree Falls, The Appalachian Trail and Blue Ridge Parkway. There is a nice biking trail close by: The Virginia Blue Ridge Biking Trail. We can not provide bikes.

Beautiful home with amazing views
This was out home base for our daughter’s college graduation and we couldn’t have dreamed of a better location. The house slept our family comfortably and provided beautiful mountain views as far as the eye could see. Just minutes from breweries and wineries but the best experience by far, aside from the graduation, was an early morning cup of coffee on the back porch watching all the birds, rabbits, and deer start their day.

Granddaughter’s vacation
OMG!!! This house is wonderful. The views, hot tub, fire pit and quietness is to die for! The view from the master bedroom is so beautiful. Words alone doesn’t do the property justice. We even got a chance to meet Wanda and Glen. They are truly amazing people. Thank you!!! I’ll be back!!!

Perfect Quiet Getaway
We loved our stay at this beautiful property. The house and property were extremely well maintained. The online photos don’t do justice to how beautiful and peaceful this home is. There were a lot of thoughtful touches that let us know the owners care about the renters and their feedback. Overall 5/5.

Quaint place, beautiful scenery
Loved that the main bedroom had it's own bathroom but it had poor lighting. Internet service was fair. The additional porches were a plus. The firepit area was nice, the solo stove was a nice touch. Could use a set of steps to get in as it was a bit sketchy walking the whole way around in dim lighting. Overall, I would definitely stay there again!

Wonderful Retreat
We had a wonderful time and can't thank Glen (and Wanda) enough. We loved the peace and quiet close to nature and the pristine water of the Tye River. We had an amazing time fishing, swiming, floating our week away! We would definitely stay here again!
