About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Get Away, Relax, and Unwind

This cozy home is located in the small town of Grottoes, Virginia nestled between the shade of an old Oak Tree, Maple Tree, and Pine Trees. It sits on approximately three acres with a large field behind the house where kids can run and play. In the Spring and Summer, you will have the opportunity to enjoy the rose garden in the back yard. My father passed away in March of 2017 and left behind the old home place. He spent many hours in his rose garden and enjoyed delivering them to his wife in the nursing home. Since his passing, I've completely renovated this beautiful old home on Dogwood Ave and have also began to learn the art of growing roses. My father loved to help others and loved people and I am carrying on the tradition of helping others by offering a location where folks can come away, relax and unwind. There are two lovely bedrooms; one of which has two antique brass beds. There is a special room in memory of my father who was an avid hunter and fisherman. In addition, there are games for all ages and many books and memorabilia to enjoy. The kitchen has a modern yet retro look to it. There is an old red Formica table that seats four. You can also sit and enjoy the big screen TV while seated at the bar in the kitchen. There is a coffee station completely furnished with coffee and teas to choose from.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private balcony or patio. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Had a quick stay with the family over the weekend. We enjoyed the small town vibe and how clean everything was. We were able to walk to a local coffee shop in the morning and at night we walked to Lil Gus' for dinner. Our favorite thing was the state park and hiking. Karen provided some good information on where to go to see some waterfalls. She was very easy to get ahold of and communicate with...10 out 10 stay! We'll be back!

We have stayed here before, and will do so again! Karen goes the extra mile with a stocked refrigerator and kitchen. The home is quiet, clean, cute, and comfortable. It is a perfect location for getting to Shenandoah National Park and JMU. We especially enjoyed sitting outside and looking at the stars. Thank you Karen for always quickly responding to our questions, and providing a relaxing stay for us to see our son’s senior music recital..

Not only was the house immaculately clean, but stocked with all the little things that we needed for our stay. Karen was so kind to leave eggs, biscuits, and a variety of coffees for us. It was a great start to our first morning. I enjoyed feeling at home and being able to cook dinners for our family after the day of skiing. I would definitely visit again!
