About this property
Fauna Haven: Farm-Estate and Animal Sanctuary
Tranquil Fauna Haven will help you regain sanity. Whether looking for a getaway or a hub for local sightseeing, look no further. Relax in a private guest house on 20 acres with pond & intimate hiking trails. 1 bedroom, plus curtain for sofa sleeper privacy. Full kitchen/laundry. Visit with our farm animals. 30 min. to UVA/Charlottesville, 38 min. to Monticello or Montpelier, 22 min. to Shenandoah Nat'l Park Swift Gap Entrance, numerous vineyards nearby. Great for 'littles' and adults alike!
The space:
Private guesthouse has been completely renovated for your comfort. A large back deck (with child/ safety gate) provides a private place to enjoy coffee or wine while enjoying nature (popular bird feeder just off the deck!). The private, 3/4 acre pond is great for feeding the fish (fish food provided). Enjoy the maintained trails around the property. Gather fresh eggs from the chicken coop in the morning. Pet Hershey (half-miniature donkey) and Sally (small mule) and interact with rescues: Alvin, Simon, and Theodore (three little piggys), Bamm-Bamm (miniature goat), Milo & Otis (Moo Moo's), along with Virginia Celebrities: Lenny (sheep) and Squiggy (goat) who made the news after having been rescued by the SPCA following their brave escape from a slaughterhouse truck in nearby Fauquier County!!. Take advantage of endless photo opportunities. Depending on when you visit, you may see the 9 mature cherry blossom trees in bloom (usually early-mid April) or enjoy the fireflies (most abundant around June). Wifi provided through separate, 'dedicated' DSL. DVD/Blu-Ray with 256 G thru R rated movies provided, along with smart, 50 inch TV to access your digital entertainment subscriptions (Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, etc).
Fauna Haven is also home to Fauna Haven Animal Sanctuary! To learn more about the sanctuary, please visit FaunaHaven.org
As the name "Fauna Haven" (meaning: a safe environment for all animals) implies, we aim to ensure everyone and 'every creature' is safe and happy! With this in mind, please ensure your little ones (and big ones!) don't chase or mistreat our wild and farm friends! :). Thank you!!
