A visiting published writer's description of our vacation rental:

A cobalt blue house stands at the top of a hill, encircled by lush green vegetation, secreted from the rest of the world. A flowing stream cascades from a natural wall of rocks. The little brook snakes around the quaint house. It swirls around an obstacle course of protruding rocks, white caps flowering the rill.
I sit with a captivating book in my hands, basking in the tranquility. Lofi rhythmic music spills into my ears from my headphones, injecting me with the serenity of this little corner of Virginia. Birds whistle jovially in the canopy, the dappled sunlight warms my body, accompanied by a gentle zephyr that toys with my hair, running its wispy fingers through the strands.
I allow myself to devour the scene, to relish the perfect calm that this little house embodies.

The area amenities are numerous and can be enjoyed year round:
- skiing (5 minute driving distance to the slopes)
- hiking (hundreds of trails for all levels within minutes)
- access to two neighborhood pools (Memorial Day through Labor Day, restrictions apply)
- numerous world class wineries, breweries and cideries within short 15-30 minute drive
- discover historic downtown Charlottesville and surrounding areas with great restaurants and shopping

Girl's Weekend!
We enjoyed our Girl's Weekend at this lovely house! Well appointed, clean, plenty of towels, extra blankets, kitchen supplies.....and of course the great hot tub. The double-sided fireplace was heavenly! Plenty of room for our group to spread out, and gather. The stream on the property drew in lots of deer. Would definitely book again.

Plenty of space with nice views
We had a very nice stay with family. Plenty of room with lots of beds and restrooms for everyone. The house is very pet friendly although we didn’t have ours on this trip. Kitchen had all the necessary dishes and appliances were up to date. It’s an older home that could use some upgrades outdoors but inside was very comfortable. We enjoyed the hot tub. Close to skiing and restaurants. Creek running along side the house was really nice to see and listen to. Plenty of parking. We’d definitely stay here again.

Fantastic stay
We were very fortunate to spend a few days at this beautiful home. The location and amenities were great, with a fantastic view from the deck. The house was immaculate with plenty of space and beautifully and tastefully furnished rooms. The modern kitchen and bathrooms also made our stay all the more enjoyable. The hosts were great too, prompt to respond and very accommodating.

Birthday Getaway
We booked last minute, and we were not disappointed with our stay. We had a wonderful time and will definitely book this cabin again. Three of us had birthdays this weekend and this was our annual Birthday Getaway. We recommend this property to others. The only drawback was we had to purchase toilet paper and trash bags. (No biggie) Other than that, our stay was great!!

Great place for a get away
Great house for a great away. We went with 2 other families and had a great weekend. The house had everything we needed including an awesome hot tub on the side deck with a creek flowing right next door. It was newly renovated so all the bathrooms, bedrooms and kitchen were really nice. Owner and agent were very responsive and communicated to make sure we got in okay and had everything we neeed. Definitely recommend to others and possibly a second visit in our future.

Spacious, beautiful and relaxng!
I must admit I was skeptical that all "kinks" had been worked out on this property. I even contacted the host before I committed, and was assured the home was in great shape. We were not disapponted! We experienced no issues at all. The home was clean, safe and we enjoyed our entire stay. I will say it's not a newer home, which I'm fine with, but it is well maintained and again no issues. The thermostat and heating system was a little tricky, but we figured it out. It was only two of us, but this home can accomodate many people and I could imagine sharing an amazing family get together there in the future.

The kitchen wasn’t very well equipped. Our family enjoys cooking together. We had issues with the internet as well. One of the shower curtains was too small in one bathroom. Some of the lights didn’t work. Kitchen window wouldn’t shut so you could feel cold air coming in. Some of the sliding glass doors did not lock. Heat lamps in bathrooms did not work Not enough towels were provided. Loved the location but will look for another home next time.

Mountain House
We loved the property. Great layout of house. Plenty of bathrooms. Loved the fireplace. Downsides: the refrigerator was dirty. I cleaned it when we got there so we could put up the groceries. The hot tub was not very clean and would not heat up. My son-in-law unstopped the filter and it heated right up. That might have been the reason it was dirty as well, but it did not clear up in the 2 days we were there. We did have a great time. The living area is conducive for a large family (9) to enjoy. My favorite part was the alcove with 3 sides of windows.

Great getaway
We had a very easy time checking in. The house was fairly clean when we got there we could tell the people that had been there before had some kind of celebration as there was confetti on the deck and some on the carpet. The beds were clean and house smelled clean. The only complaint was the master bathroom shower door was broken and kept falling off the track. I noticed when we got there the grill cover was ripped. The kitchen was stocked nicely with cooking utensils. We loved the location. It was a little tricky figure out the heating but we got it and the house worked wonderful for all 13 of us. Hot tub worked great. Would recommend leaving chorine tablets for guests to put in if they plan on using the for a week. But other then that really enjoyed ourselves.

Great vacation
Great location of house but cleanliness was not good. There were quite a few things in the house that were broken and/or missing. We fixed the trash can mount inside the cabinet and had to purchase a few staple kitchen items such as towels, oven mitts, spatulas and a pitcher. We also purchased 2 new shower curtain liners for 2 of the bathrooms bc they were black mildewed and gross. The house is very dated, which didn't bother us much bc it fit our sized family very well. However, the lack of cleanliness was hard to get past. We left the house cleaner than when we arrived. The broom and vacuum were almost not useable. We enjoyed the fireplace and hot tub, although the hot tub was very dirty and didn't seem to have any chlorine or other chemicals to help it stay clean. It had a very funny odor. Overall, we had a wonderfully memorable stay, and I can't say enough about the great location!

Overpriced
The hot tub needed to be cleaned as it smelled weird. It also needed water. This was disappointing, as it was the main reason we booked it. There was trash around the outside of the property, and the property needs updated and a deep cleaning. The ceiling fans were gross. The upstairs TV remote doesn't work. The toilet paper holder in master was broken, we had to put the dishwasher tray wheels back on to get it to work correctly. The kitchen window was open upon arrival. The throw pillows were dirty in the upstairs bedroom. There were mouse droppings in multiple locations (which we understood being in the woods). The home doesn't look like s been stayed in often and needs some love. No kitchen hand soap. Only 1 dishwasher pod. The shelves with games on it is just leaning against the wall and almost fell on one of the kids. Lights on the outside appear broken. Multiple lightbulbs out. The half bath toilet on 2nd floor runs. These are more notes for the owner/property manager so that they can fix these issues. We didn't feel as though the property was worth the price we paid.

Wonderful Getaway on the Mountain!
First of all, don't be worried about previous comments on the cleanliness of the house and about the responsiveness of the management company. They have been addressed. We arrived to a beautifully clean house, and everything was provided as stated. For hiking, the house is in a perfect location. We did a 2.5 mile (strenuous) hike to the waterfall and back from the house. Afterward, the hot tub was wonderful to relax in. The kitchen is great! Plenty of space to cook and to have the whole family present in what is always the central location of any house. The bedrooms were comfortable and had great views, while the common areas were well equipped for relaxing, playing games, or just conversation. The decks are well laid out, and we spend much of our time outside listening to the sound of falling water from the creek next to the property. We brought our two furry family members, and they love to hike on the mountain. By blocking the one stairway off of the deck with a nearby trunk, we could let them have the run of the deck without worrying that they would disappear. The only thing to be aware of is that parking is a bit tight at the end of a very steep uphill driveway. We had two cars, and had to do a lot of maneuvering. Also, there is no cell phone reception, but the wi-fi kept us connected. All in all, we would love to come back! A great place to relax on one of the most scenic mountains around.

Just Okay
The house is in a great location and has plenty of space for large families/couples. Kitchen is well-stocked with dishes and cookware. While we enjoyed our time with friends, we did experience several issues with the property. Overall cleanliness was an issue and could be improved. There are also several areas in need of maintenance. The bunkbeds in the downstair bedroom are all very loose and wobbly. All of the ladders are broken. This was a big safety concern for us as we were traveling with several young children. The refrigerator capacitor/condenser is going bad & not able to maintain a stable temp (max 51 deg). We sadly used coolers/ice for half our stay to keep perishables cold. Perhaps the biggest disappointment was the hot tub. We booked the house with the hot tub as a main criteria. The hot tub was extremely dirty and would not get above 87 degrees due to multiple clogs and heater issues. The property manager suggested taking the filter out to troubleshoot the heating issue - the filter was filthy and desperately needed to be changed. It was clear that it was not being properly maintained between guests. We did message with the property manger regarding these issues. She was very quick to respond each time which was appreciated but unfortunately was not able to solve any of our issues beyond offering suggestions that involved us taking time out of our weekend getaway to clean/maintain or run to the store for coolers, ice, and Allen wrenches. We would not book again.

Wintergreen Resort, VA
Wintergreen, as a destination, was excellent. The home was well laid out for our family- 2 couples, 2 singles. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and had a wonderful family time together. HOWEVER! The home is in desperate need of DEEP cleaning - inside as well as outside! In one of the bedrooms the bed linens had not been changed and had disgusting stains on the sheets as well as the bed cover!! Maintenance of of home is poor - even dangerous. Much of the outside decking boards were covered with peeling paint and/or rotten planks. The grill was so filthy as to be unusable. During a rainstorm Saturday night, a window in the primary bedroom leaked so badly a suitcase was filled with water before it was noticed. In the same bedroom, the shower door fell off the rollers while being used - luckily without injuring the person using it. The most egregious failing, though, was that the home was without communication of any type!! No cell phone coverage (zero bars!), we were unable to connect to wifi service! No TV- the manager told us " there is no TV service to this property"! There is apparently steaming TV, but w/o wifi or cell service, guess what? No tv. Lastly, there is a land line phone. When you pick up the receiver, you get a dial tone, but quickly get a recording explaining that there is no service to this property! Dangerous, when you think about it all! I can add to this review, but I think my point is made. This property is a black eye for the owner but, maybe worst of all, for VRBO!!
