We are a 150 acre working farm with cattle and crops, fronting the South River, at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains. You can see the house from overlooks on the Blue Ridge Parkway. The view from the house will cure high blood pressure in a minute. We are an ideal base for visiting Charlottesville , Skyline Drive, 151 trail wineries, BR Pkwy. and Staunton.
Because it is an old farm house with additions (total of around 3100 sq ft} the floor plan is unique. Downstairs includes all the public rooms plus a full bath. Upstairs includes three bedrooms, all queens, and a bunk room with 2 singles and a trundle which sleeps 3, and two full baths. One of the baths is off a central hall, the other is off one of one of the bedrooms. The upstairs rooms are on three levels, often requiring a step or two between rooms and the hall. If you are a person easily disoriented when you wake up at night, you may want to stay in the room with the ensuite bath with no steps. Also, it has a metal roof, so you will hear rain and wind storms if one arises.
Please note, the base rate is for up to four people. If you have more than four people it is $10 per person per night extra.
The address is 118 Hall School Rd, Waynesboro, VA 22980, should you wish to map it.
While only a few miles from the interstate, we are in a lovely rural setting. With 3/4 mile frontage on the South River, we have lovely paths for hiking and gentle water for canoeing (no rapids) and fishing, bass and trout. During the summer river water level can be pretty low and not great to canoe. There are other rivers in the area better suited for canoeing and tubing. This area is particularly nice for biking, with many rural roads, and excellent mountain biking trails nearby in the national forest. With 24 wineries within 25 miles, you can enjoy a grand tour or just visit a couple only 10 minutes away. Lake Sherando is 15 minutes away for swimming.
In the Fall the colors of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Shenandoah Valley are amazing. There is no extra charge for them.
You'll have a full modern kitchen, or many restaurants nearby for dining. The den features a card table and a large HD TV with DVD. We have an outside basketball court, and lots of area for soccer.
Behind the house there is a patio with a wonderful view of the property and the Blue Ridge Mountains. The patio includes a firepit and a hottub.
In our many five star reviews, you will read about people enjoying the games in our large 100 year old barn. Unfortunately the barn burned to the ground January 4, 2023 so we don’t have quite as many activities available on the farm.
If you are so inclined, you can visit our chickens and two donkeys, Fergie and Olive. You can win their hearts with an apple or carrot, or by brushing their coats.
