Adorable Cottage

Loved the quaint street and location. Loved the decor. Very walkable. The beds were comfortable and kitchen well supplied. TV room was great. Heater helped with chilly nights. Exterior needs a little TLC but didn’t take away from our fun stay.

Beautiful neighborhood and close to downtown and campus. The fenced yard worked very well with our dog. Well equipped kitchen and cosy couches and beds. Backyard coffee in the morning was a treat with all the birds. Abbey was very responsive.

Check in was easy. The host is easy to communicate with and works to solve problems. The property is very nice and was very clean. Location is close to everything in Charlottesville, but is on a quiet street in a quiet neighborhood. A perfect place to see Charlottesville and UVA while having a quiet relaxing place to return to after!

Perfect house while in town for UVA Final Exercises

We rented this house a year in advance for our stay over UVA graduation weekend. Abbey, the owner, was very easy to work with and always answered my questions promptly. The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed - nicely decorated with a well-stocked kitchen and two sitting areas in a great residential neighborhood not too far away from Grounds. We knew that the bars and restaurants would be mobbed during this weekend, so the house served as a perfect place to host a small gathering with friends and family to celebrate my daughter's UVA graduation. The yard (have your choice of a front or back yard) was a perfect place to entertain everyone.

Fantastic stay

The property was just as described (as other reviewers noted, the outside could use a little TLC and paint), but step inside and the cottage was cozy and well equipped. It was perfect for our needs and the location was ideal. Abbey was communicative before and throughout our stay. If we find ourselves in Charlottesville in the future, we would definitely stay here again.

Dilapidated Cottage

Our family was severely disappointed in this booking, a VRBO first. The property has been severely neglected over the past several years, as evident by the cracking and peeling exterior and interior paint. Several key features were broken and not working, such as chairs and lights. The high expense of this rental should be used for updating the home to make it suitable for the next renters.

Good stay for UVA graduation

Abbey's place worked well for our graduation stay. It is an older property with beautiful solid wood furniture and a comfy feel in a quiet neighborhood about 1.5 miles from UVA. All the amenities are as noted in the listing. The beds were comfortable (not too soft) and the kitchen had everything we needed. Abbey's instructions were clear and she was very responsive when I had trouble logging onto the wifi. There is room to park 2 cars off the street to the left of the house, and with a car UVA and downtown were easily accessible.

Great Getaway

The house was clean and perfect for our family of 4 including 2 college age sons. The 2 bedroom house had plenty of room for all of us and our 2 labs. It was a great place to relax and visit with our sons. We had a wonderful time just hanging out, going to a UVA football game and BBQing. We would definitely book the house again.
