Lovely property, exceptional views, wonderful hosts

We loved our stay atop this beautiful, working horse barn. The apartment was a perfect size for us. Decorated in a gorgeous, farmhouse style with cozy and welcoming touches in every area - extra blankets, luxurious towels, comfy bed and pillows. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed for a comfortable stay and our hosts left little surprises that we so enjoyed. The view - especially the morning sunrises overlooking the pasture and mountains - were breathtaking. We would have loved to sit by the fire with a glass of wine but time didn’t allow. Most importantly, our hosts were warm, communicative and hospitable in every way. We highly recommend this beautiful home away from home.

Stunning views and warm hospitality

We loved our stay at this beautiful property with sweeping views of the Rockbridge hills and Blue Ridge mountains. Doris and Dennis are such generous hosts, and we had so much fun meeting the horses and Jake! The apartment is so cozy and had everything we needed. We only wish we could have spent more time there, and we can’t wait to return for another stay.

We had the most amazing time at the cottage. Pictures do not do the property justice. It exceeded expectations. Doris and Dennis were amazing hosts who treated our children so well. Doris had breakfast stocked and the fridge had the essentials. The bed was comfy! Thank you Doris and Dennis!

Historic Mountain Getaway

This is a wonderful mountain getaway on a working horse farm minutes from downtown Lexington. From the moment we booked, almost a month in advance, we received great communication from our Host Doris. Our accommodations were well-appointed and comfortable. Doris provided fresh eggs and milk and all of the drawers were well stocked with spices and cookware. Both Doris and Dennis made time for us to chat when we saw them during our stay. We appreciated their hospitality and their charming getaway. We definitely would stay again!

Little gem!

This is a gem! The hosts are particularly delightful, and you can really feel how much they love the property and how important their guests are to them. The cute apartment is very well appointed and thoughtfully supplied. Everything you could need. My son and I don't have a horse, but if you're horse people this is a particularly great one to know about. Highly recommended!

Beautiful place to stay in Lexington

As a family with a daughter who rides horses, we found this a perfect stay for a horse show weekend at the Virginia Horse Center. The drive to the horse center is a litle further than the standard hotels we typically utilize, but the comfort and ammenities are immensely better. Doris was a pleasure to communicate with and perfectly responsive. The kitchen was stocked as described, and the bed was firm but comfortable. Everything was clean and updated. She had the couch made up for our daughter upon arrival. The property is stunning, and it made our standard horse show weekend more of a mini vacation. Will definitely stay here again!

Amazing time!

This place is incredible. Dennis and Doris are such sweet hosts and made us feel so comfortable. The loft is exceptionally clean and decorated. Very comfortable and they have thought of everything you could possibly need. They have anything you need to cook and the milk and eggs were a special touch! You do not hear any noise from the barn below. Morning coffee outside was so relaxing. There are more things to do in the Lexington area than we expected. Hike to Natural Bridge, a nice downtown with good food and the Drive thru Safari Park was a big hit. We highly recommend this location and will visit it again. Dennis and Doris are such wonderful hosts.

One of the best experiences we've had with vrbo! Dennis and Doris were lovely couple, very kind and accommodating. The loft apt was just right and the view of the mountains incredible. Our son loved walking out in the morning to feed the horses. It was so peaceful and relaxing. Very convenient to Lexington. We had a wonderful time.

Serene slice of heaven!

My 3 day stay was truly food for the soul. This peaceful and beautiful location was wonderful. Pastoral views with horses grazing and Mountain View’s in the distance. Morning coffee in the sun while listening to wild turkeys come off the roost to begin their spring ritual. Evening glass of wine sitting around the fire pit looking at the moonlit silhouette of the Blue Ridge mountains. Was truly a great stay. The barn loft apartment has everything you need, full kitchen, roomy living area and quality throughout. Owners/host have done a great job creating this escape and anyone looking for a peaceful, beautiful, bucolic setting can find it here. 10 minutes from vibrant historic downtown Lexington with 2 universities creating a cool and diverse vibe with shops, cafes, stores, and places to eat, drink and stay make it even better.

Don’t wait, book this rental now, like right now!!!! This is by and far the most well-appointed rental I have ever stayed in. They have thought of everything to make this apartment ridiculously comfortable. We are already looking at open weekends to come back for another stay. The owners are lovely, sweet and kind, we enjoyed chatting with them as much as everything else. If you are looking for a quiet oasis in the woods, this is it!! A 5-star rating isn’t high enough for this property and it’s owners.

Peaceful paradise with horses, Jake the dog and great views

Love, love, love this place! The hosts, Doris and Dennis couldn't be more welcoming and they have created a homey space above their barn. If you're worried about it being too "barn-ish" and smelling like horses, don't be. It doesn't. What you do get is the absolute peace of the country, in a super comfy barn-apartment. It is well stocked and thought through, with everything guests might need. including basic groceries and very nice linens. Everything here is well done, with taste and comfort in mind. I am very much hoping to get back there soon for another visit!
