Note on Country Living & Pest Control Our homes are located in the beautiful Virginia countryside, offering fresh air, mountain views, and peaceful surroundings. With this setting comes the occasional presence of local insects. We maintain a quarterly professional pest-control program with additional treatments throughout the year. While this greatly reduces activity, it’s not possible to eliminate every bug entirely, especially during certain seasons. Thank you for understanding that a few sightings are a natural part of staying in a rural area. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 5 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table ### Entertainment - DVD player - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Video games ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In the mountains ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Unit size: 2,676 square feet ## Similar properties ![2 restaurants, breakfast served](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/1000000/30000/21600/21589/c15399b5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Omni Charlottesville Hotel North Downtown - Pool - Hot tub - Pet-friendly - Parking included 9.4 Exceptional 1,009 reviews £158 includes taxes & fees 5 Apr - 6 Apr [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-05&endDate=2026-04-06&selected=21589&PinnedHotelID=21589&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Suite, Private Bathroom (Suite 2) | Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/101000000/100020000/100011500/100011422/73ecc43c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Piedmont Grove Roseland - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi - Business services 9.4 Exceptional 33 reviews £213 includes taxes & fees 31 Mar - 1 Apr [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-31&endDate=2026-04-01&selected=100011422&PinnedHotelID=100011422&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/10000000/9760000/9758100/9758047/dd065eb7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Albemarle Estate at Trump Winery Charlottesville - Pool - Hot tub - Breakfast included - Spa 9.6 Exceptional 143 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-13&endDate=2026-04-14&selected=9758047&PinnedHotelID=9758047&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![House (3 Bedrooms) | Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/95000000/94970000/94962700/94962686/f98f2921.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cozy Log Cabin Getaway w/ Fire Pit + 3 Acres!
