They have a well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, and a great outdoor area with fire pits and a hot tub. Kids and adults had a great time! ##### Randi W.

The property was ideally located, lovely views, and perfect for our small bachelorette celebration. Our rental was inclusive of both cottages (Meme's & Papa's). Beautifully decorated, comfortable beds and many thoughtful extras. Communication with the property hosts was excellent. Only wished our stay could have been longer!! ##### Patti S. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2024 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Madison N. 5 Sept 2023 #### 5+++ If I could give more then 5 stars I would!! This is our 3rd trip to the Afton area and is the best place we have rented. From the newly renovated homes to the location of Nelson 151/Crozet/Charlottesville it was amazing. The Evolve team was great prior to check in and the location manager was absolutely amazing and so sweet! We loved everything about these houses and loved we were able to soak up this amazing weather on the porch at night. I highly recommend these vacation rentals and will definitely be back to rent in the future. ##### Madison N. ---
