Beautiful property with great privacy and scenery. Extremely clean and very comfortable. Stayed for four nights with my wife and our dog while we enjoyed the area. Couldn't ask for a more perfect location. Owners were very respectful and polite. We enjoyed greeting the donkeys each morning!

We loved every minute of our stay at the tiny red barn. The barn is well decorated and enjoyed our night fire and watching Christmas movies. Just a short distance to Williamsburg. The perfect location to relax and unwind. We enjoyed the fresh cookies upon arrival and the selection of hot teas. Definitely recommend!

We loved our time at the Tiny Red Barn! The property is beautiful and the house is so cozy. We used it as a weekend getaway to Busch Gardens, so didn't spend as much time at the house as I would have liked. I guess we'll just have to come back!

Amazing property!

We loved our week long stay at the “Tiny Red Barn”! It was a great home base for everything we wanted to see and do in the Williamsburg/ Richmond areas. The property itself is wonderful, extremely clean, beds were very comfortable and so many personal touches and amenities…the cookies awaiting on our arrival were an especially nice touch. We loved the dock, and had fun with the kayaks, paddleboat etc. Virginia and Stephen are amazing hosts and we would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Peaceful and Relaxing Getaway

This is a quiet, and secluded property with beautiful views to enjoy while sitting outside by a fire or from the comfort of inside the home. The trails on the property are great to explore. Virginia and Steve make sure you have everything you need to make your stay perfect and relaxing. We hope to return in the Spring.

Truly a 5 star place

This is one of the best vacation homes we have stayed in. Very clean, comfortable beds, lots of thoughtful extras, and a friendly responsive host. We had fun on the trails around the property, fishing from the pier and just loving the house and natural surroundings. The location was great for getting out to local tourist stuff too. Our family had never spent any time with donkeys until we met the ones on the property. We immediately fell in love with those peaceful guys and looked forward to visiting every day. Thanks for the great stay — We are looking forward to returning!

The beautiful, restful, Tiny Red Barn

The Tiny Red Barn is such a unique, delightful, and absolutely beautiful property. The space is clean and impeccably decorated, including all of the amenities you may need during your stay. We especially enjoyed our time relaxing in the screened in porch, the game selection and game time with our kids, paddling on the reservoir, and making s’mores around the fire pit. Virginia was communicative and available at any time, but gave us our space and privacy throughout our entire stay. It was so easy to melt into relaxation at this gorgeous property and we hope to stay at the Tine Red Barn again!

Everything was as described in the posting. The cookies and eggs were absolutely fabulous and I loved my "keepsake" bar of soap. The kayaks were an awesome added bonus! The reservoir was so calm. The house is so beautifully and thoughtfully decorated. It was like coming home after the adventures at the theme parks. We could love 💖 to stay again in the future.
