Farm Experience-In the Heart of Vineyard, Wine and Wedding Country-Spacious

Country Get-a-way:

The GPS address is, 5114 Dick Woods Road, Charlottesville, VA 22903.

Are you looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of 21st century living, step back in time 200 years in order to enjoy the rhythms of nature? Come listen to the rain on a tin roof and sleep in the morning until you are finished.

You and your children can feed the chickens, collect eggs, milk goats or go for a long walk. Due to bio-security and health issues we have a strict no pet policy! The owners live in a separate cottage a short distance away and are available for help or emergency.

You can ring the dinner bell or hang out in the "Man Cave" with the 42 inch flat screen TV. Come away and relax with a glass of wine in the cool of the evening as all the stars in the Milky Way pop out to greet you.

The most amazing part of this saga is that it is available only a short 14 minute drive from the Rotunda at University of Virginia. Quarters Farm is also only 15 minutes from Pippen Hill Vineyard, King Family Vineyard and Pollack Vineyard. We are 45 minutes from Wintergreen and close to many fine restaurants.

One new addition is a catering service provided by close friends. They can have the frig stocked when you arrive or cater a meal during your stay. Prices and information sent upon request.

The history of the farm only adds to the mystique. In 1745 King George of England granted 1800 acres to the Mills family who moved to Virginia and had a three story home built with 6 rooms for themselves and their three sons. This home predates the beginning of construction on Thomas Jefferson's Monticello by 18 years. In the 275 years since then, wings and additions have been added on to the original stone and log construction

My father purchased 180 acres, along with the house, in 1952. It is now a sustainable farm selling pastured eggs, and other products which are all available to our guests. My wife and I live in a house close by and run the farm.

A beautiful kitchen attached to a large screened-in porch, along with a second story porch for enjoying the mountain views with your favorite beverage. 4 bedrooms and two bathrooms will comfortably meet your needs.

ALERT: Due to the design of this historic home, there are NO bathrooms/bedrooms on the ground floor. Access to the living areas is via a flight of stairs.

We believe that you will find this home truly inviting and relaxing, well furnished with antiques and beautiful furniture. The house has a whole house generator, so you will not have to leave in the case of a power outage.

A peaceful retreat
This is our second time to stay here and it was again so relaxing! The hosts are awesome and let us enjoy chicken feeding and goat milking. The grounds are beautiful and the place is restful with a screened in porch for fellowship and food since the weather was cool. Definitely our go to place in the area!

Wonderful farm visit
We had a great family visit at Quarters Farm. Bill and Cynthia were excellent hosts. They let the children feed the chickens and goats and help collect eggs. We loved the historic house and walking the loop around by the lake. It was a great base for visiting Monticello, UVA, and local orchards and restaurants. But we also really enjoyed just staying at the house and sitting on the screen porch and watching the cows graze and the goats cross the field. Bill and Cynthia, thank you again for your hospitality!

Lovely Farm House
Although it was a short stay, our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Our granddaughters loved feeding the goats, and visiting Miche Tavern and the light show at the Boars Head Inn. Our friendly hosts made our visit all the more enjoyable. Would love to come back.

Perfect stay near Charlottesville.
Wonderful and well restored farm house in a beautiful area in close proximity to Charlottesville and Monticello. Owners Bill and Cynthia were ever gracious and so friendly. Highly recommend this perfect hideaway retreat if you are looking in this area and do not need to be in the heart of Charlottesville.

Wonderful home!
We had a group of 8 that turned into 9, and there was plenty of space for everyone to be comfortable. The goats, cows, chickens, pup, and kitten made the stay even better and Bill and Cynthia, of course, took great care of us throughout the weekend. Wonderful spot for a group/reunion of friends.

Incredible Farm Stay
We stayed here for a bachelorette party and it was our first time in Charlottesville. It was a beautiful property and was located perfectly in winery country. Bill and Cynthia were wonderful kind hosts and let us feed their goats and showed us around the farm. We truly loved it and would come back again!

While visiting Charlottesville for a wedding, our family stayed at this beautiful farm house for the weekend. We absolutely loved it and hope to return next year. It was the perfect place to have our children run around and play. They loved feeding the baby goat with a bottle and helped collect eggs. Bill and Cynthia were the perfect hosts.
