Cosy spot on a beautiful ranch. Close to town and very close to Monticello. Did not have a chance to meet the owner as he was out of town but his communication was great! Enjoyed the use of the hot tub and enjoyed the firefly show after dark. Would definitely stay there again when in the Charlottesville area. Thanks Steve!

It was as advertised. Although there are a few rentals on the property we never saw anyone which was great as it felt private.

Relaxing Hide Away

The property is stunning and accommodations are very private. It is a small bungalow but all that is needed. The linens provided were fabulous. The hot tub is clean, private and relaxing with a beautiful view. I highly recommend.

Great place to relax.

Wonderful, clean and updated property! Close to everything yet remote enough to feel "away from it all." Host was helpful and respectful with lots of great local recommendations. We had to cut our trip short but wished we could have stayed longer to enjoy all of the amenities.

Gorgeous Outside Space

If you’re looking for a peaceful, secluded outdoor oasis, then this is the place for you. The accommodations are modest and quite small for a family. However, if you are spending most of your time outside and don’t need a full kitchen then it would probably fit your needs well. We enjoyed sitting by the fire pit, taking in the views and soaking in the hot tub.

Peaceful and Relaxing

The property was so relaxing. We didn't see anyone except the owner, who was great to talk to (and his golden retriever). The Cowboy Hide a Way was so comfortable. The hot tub was clean, as was the cabin. The grill was in great shape. I couldn't recommend a stay there any more. I would love to go back.

Perfect weekend stay

Booked as a stay for a 2 now get and 3 day weekend in Monticello wine region for my wife’s birthday. I wanted quiet, private and comfortable with a hot tub and option for cooking and it worked out perfectly! The cottage is comfortable and appointed well for a weekend to week long stay. It was quiet and private as we desired with nice views onto the fields enjoying sunrise and the local deer. The kitchen has a 2 burner induction cooktop without an oven but with some prep at home I was then able to make a nice dinner for us one evening and breakfast for both mornings. We enjoyed the stay and discussed other future travels to the area in which we would definitely return!

Amazing stay

This cottage had everything my fiancé and I needed. A cozy cottage with phone charging stations at every table. Plenty of storage space for all of your needs. Private hot tub, grill and fire pit. The view of rolling hills from every corner of the cottage is so breathtaking that you don’t even have to leave to see nature. And the lake behind the cottage is icing on the cake. Steve is a great host and is always a phone call away. I can’t say enough good things about our stay. We are already talking about our next adventure here.

Nice, but not quite relaxing

Steven is very uptight about his property, one of the reasons he cites is his "privacy" - he was uncomfortable with the prospect of my 67 y/o mother and father visiting the property for drink on the patio of the cottage - an objectively benign activity. The property is beautiful and the cottage was clean but he's slow and inconsistent with the check in and check out information. He neglected to send us the check in information and his check out information was not posted on the property page of the reservation and instead was tucked at the bottom of the check-in email. For what he's charging, he made it a lot of work and is very particular about his services.
